An ad for the touring production of Avenue Q was rejected by an agency in Colorado Springs, Colo., because it would have revealed the furry cleavage of the Lucy the Slut character. Colorado Springs happens to be the headquarters of the antigay group Focus on the Family.

According to The Gazette of Colorado Springs, an executive for Lamar Advertising deemed the bus shelter ad too racy for the conservative market.

"If I have to explain it to my 4-year-old or my grandmother, we don't put it up," said Moore, according to TheGazette.
