* R.E.M.'s "Pop Song 89" music video features three pairs of nipples: those of singer Michael Stipe and those of two female dancers (a third dancer appears to be wearing pasties). This is probably an attempt at subverting the [[Double Standard]]. Significantly, Stipe becomes a backing dancer himself at the end of the video, while the women take turns in the foreground.
** And when the [[Moral Guardians]] complained, R.E.M. stuck black bars over every set of nipples in the video, saying that a nipple was a nipple and they got rid of all of them.

** Duran Duran's video for [http://vimeo.com/9976137 "The Chauffeur"] also featured a topless woman.
