Paris Hilton video too hot for India
NEW DELHI: Paris Hilton is too hot for Indian
censors.
24 August 2006
TONE IT DOWN: The music video for Paris Hilton's single Stars Are Blind has
proved to be too hot for India's censors.
The
country's Central Board of Film Certification has issued an "Adult"
certification for her new music video Stars Are Blind, which means it cannot
be broadcast on any channel.
An
official at her local label, EMI Virgin India, reported the board said the
clip had sexual connotations.
"In
fact, we had edited the video and sent a fresh copy, but they weren't happy
with that," said Narendra Kusnur, the label's manager of international
A&R (artists and repertoire).
Since
the marketing campaign for Hilton's debut album Paris, released in India on
Tuesday, has been sponsored by a shampoo company, the Stars video will be
streamed on a promotional website once details are worked out.
"To
the best of our knowledge, there are no rules yet regarding censorship on the
net so we plan to use the online platform to generate buzz," said EMI
Virgin marketing manager Kaveri Khullar.
