The Tokyo Metro Company finally decided to lift the ban that was hanging over the naked pictures that featured the pregnant Britney Spears and to display them without censoring the image. Initially, the officials from the subway said that young people might find the ad too 'stimulating' and proposed as alternative the censoring of the picture, presenting Brit only from the elbows up.

But the bosses from the Japanese edition of 'Harper's Bazzar' said that, by thus butchering the poster, people will not get the chance to see the pregnant pop star in all her glory, but only a small fragment of her body, that will make her look more 'chubby' than with child.

After a heated discussion, all the parties came to a final understanding and now Britney reigns in all her beauty in the Tokyo subway. But that doesn't mean that all the commuters are happy with seeing Mrs. Spears in the full monty. Some are content to see her each and every day on their way to work, while others can't see the point of the entire campaign.

'I'm glad the subway officials understood the meaning of the photo', was all the big shots from 'Harper's Bazaar' said about the continuous stream of controversy that the posters are sparkling.
