Gary Barlow has said that some modern music videos are too "sexual" for his children to watch.

The X Factor judge revealed that he has banned his kids from viewing raunchy promos from the likes of Rihanna and Miley Cyrus.

He told The Sun: "Music is an expression and an art form and however they want to express it is fine. If you don't want to watch it or listen to it, there's an off button.

"These singers are young, sexy girls - of course they are going to express themselves like that. But I don't let my kids watch it.

"I probably wouldn't let them watch anything like that. It's too sexual for them."

He continued: "Emily is a One Direction fan, there are posters on the bedroom wall. It takes me back. My son likes Eminem and Daisy likes Mr Tumble."

The Take That star added that he doesn't expect his new single 'Let Me Go' to be playlisted on BBC Radio 1.

He said: "With my song I don't hope to make the Radio 1 playlist. There comes a time where the business changes for you. Radio 1 is for young artists and I don't want to take their place. It's not my demographic.

"I like Radio 2, Heart and a bit of Magic. My days of Radio 1 are over."

I love how he phrased this!

Wait so he doesn't allow his kids to listen to Rihanna or Miley but lets his son listen to Eminem ? Sexism and hypocrisy at it's best.

The shame

I just noticed I can't find the bare buttocked version on youtube. Rewriting history.

He said it respectfully, nothing wrong with that.

Яeo.

His daughter is more likely to become a ***** by watching One Direction videos than Rihanna's. Or kill their family dog for a follow. #justsaying

AllEyesOnUz

He was naked in his first video,the hypocrite

also what rihanna videos are even that raunchy??? she does some semi-nudity and drug references but neither of those things will influence young children (because young children don't exactly have easy access to drugs anyway...) so i really don't see his point

i mean there's the s&m video but they won't understand that video anyway
