Bluejuice's Controversial Video Clip



After seeing an article on nine news entertainment about the Australian band Bluejuice and their new son 'Act Yr Age' I went and watched the music video for their song. In the video one of the band members passionately kisses an older lady. Although I do find it somewhat unusual, it definitely grabbed my attention. Here is a little blurb about the band:

They are known for their wild behaviour, comedic video clips and general onstage mayhem, but the video for Bluejuice's latest single, the infectious Act Your Age, is sure to incite more controversy than anything the Sydney band has done in the past.

The reason? Titillating sex scenes? Nudity? Violence? Nope, it's much worse than that; a slow-motion kiss between vocalist Jake Stone and an elderly woman. 

Why will this passionate embrace (with very liberal use of tongue) offend so many sensibilities? We aren't quite sure; the opposite scenario occurs with startling frequency, but never seems to raise ire. Nevertheless, we predict an onslaught of opinion on what is a characteristically hilarious video.
