OFCOM have ruked that Lady Gaga's controversial and raunchy X Factor performance didn't break TV broadcasting rules after, despite receiving hundreds of complaints.
The moment in question was a pre-watershed performance of the best track of Gaga's album 'Do What U Want'. The complaints concerned the overt sexuality of the performance demonstrated by the dancers and Gaga's penchant for trick nudity in the form of flesh coloured underwear. A total of 317 complaints were made directly to OFCOM and 60 were made directly to ITV following the performance on October 27, 2013.
