Censorship At The Oscars

The Oscar nominated tune – “It’s Hard Out Here For A Pimp”, from the film “Hustle & Flow” will have to edit its lyrics for the Oscar telecast.

Oscar producer Gil Cates informed the RAP group that “f---“, “s---“, and a derogatory term for African-Americans – “niggaz” are not OK for primetime TV but the words “bitch” and “ho’s” are!

REALLY?!
