Janet Jackson's "nipple brooch"

Posted by Michael Jahn on February 03, 2004

I would like to draw attention to the New York Times's referring today to Janet Jackson's famous metallic nipple covering ("pastie," to some) as a "nipple brooch."

Haven't read that one before. Perhaps because not that many opportunities arise.
