(laughs) - It's Janet Jackson. - Yeah! - Is it the one where her tits come out during the Super Bowl? - No. - Yes, because I can do that. - Rhythm Nation. (screaming) - Oh, this video is intense, guys. - Three, the second finger goes in. - Oh shit. - then these two fingers. - Damn. - Aren't we going to turn it off? - No. - She wasn't so dystopian, huh? - And I bet this happened very quickly.
