And there's the problem right there.
I think adarl is spot on about us having created a hype around Danica, which has somehow led to our expectations of this girl being nothing short of astronomical. I'm not taking shots at anyone here, but let's get it all into perspective shall we? I never saw the show, but I'll comment based on the posts I have just spent 20 minutes wading through.
#1 Danica never, to my knowledge, said she would be topless. "Seeing more" does not mean topless by any stretch of the imagination.
#2 Elite never said she would be going topless.
#3 If she had an off day/night after workng most of it, I can sympathise because I came home after 13 hours in the office last night and woke up in my clothes this morning. It's a long day lads.
#4 She looked at her watch a few times - big deal.
#5 She walked off the set? "Walked off" implies there was a problem, when there may not have been one at all. Maybe the camera didn't cut to the ad in time, or we wouldn't have seen her leave the set at all and wouldn't be speculating on anything. Maybe she broke a nail, maybe she needed a piss? The fact is - she came back and carried on.
#6 She wants to go topless but Elite is holding her back? Says who? So, she shook her head towards someone behind the camera - are people seriously telling me they can read her thoughts/body language? We've all seen daytime girls going so far at night, but stopping short at going topless. Why are we taking it so hard with Danica?
WE created the hype here boys and girls, whether by design or by accident. We assumed that "Seeing more" meant topless when clearly it didn't. On the one hand I can agree that a night time show merits partial nudity, as that's what we have all come to expect. However, if Elite are happy for Danica to fill a couple of hours with a top ON, then they clearly have no issue with it. I wonder why we do.
Agree/disagree, I really don't care...but I think we need to put this whole thing in perspective and move on. I'd love to see Danica joining us here as many of the other ladies have, but I wonder how long she'd stay based on some of the comments I have seen here on this thread.
And as we have all screamed at moronic censors from time to time, if you don't like what's on your TV...change the bloody channel!
