The #Thicke hashtag isn't the only thing Robin Thicke's new music video flashes. The not-safe-for-work clip for "Blurred Lines" featuring T.I. and Pharrell also flaunts topless models.
"You're going to be so ashamed of me," Thicke said jokingly to fans in a Google+ Hangout before adding that the video is "wonderful."
"My whole point of the video was to be provocative and show a sense of humor and to not take nudity seriously as we do in America sometimes," Thicke added. "A woman's body is the most beautiful thing on the planet. The Greeks used to sculpt that stuff."
Hashtags traditionally don't appear in music videos, especially as big or as frequently as #Thicke appears in "Blurred Lines." Its inclusion has sparked some conversation on Twitter, with some people saying it's hot and others being not too amused.
A version of "Blurred Lines" without topless models came out March 20.
NOTE: This is the clean version. For the NSFW version, watch the second video.
NOTE: This is the NSFW rendition of "Blurred Lines," which premiered this week.
