Tucker Carlson slams Grammys’ WAP performance as ‘pornography’ and accuses CBS of ‘trying to hurt our children’
AN outraged Tucker Carlson slammed the Grammys on Monday over Cardi B’s and Megan Thee Stallion’s live performance of WAP – describing the raunchy display as “pornography.”
“It’s hard not to conclude they’re not intentionally trying to degrade our culture and hurt our children,” the Fox News host said of the Grammys host-network CBS for showing hyper-sexualized performance.

Carlson spent the segment in a tirade against cultural items that were deemed controversial.
“The cultural vandals in charge of our own cultural revolution have censored everything from cartoon skunks to Peter Pan and Dumbo,” the host said.
“All filth!” Carlson said. Among the “cultural losses” he lamented include Mr. Potato Head and Dr. Seuss.
As he introduced a segment of the Grammys showing a dance performance between WAP singers Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, Carlson joked it was “the only portion” of the event the network could show.

“No more Dumbo, it’s too filthy,” Carlson retorted sarcastically. “We get that instead.”
Carlson’s remarks were in introduction to conservative pundit Candace Owens, who similarly decried the loss of Dr. Seuss (“gone”), Mr. Potato Head (“problematic, not enough genders available”), among others.
“We’ve seen going to the supermarket as a traumatizing experience,” Owens continues.
“We’ve lost Aunt Jemima last year, we’ve lost Land O’Lakes butter last year. We’ve lost Uncle Ben and his rice last year because everything is so traumatizing for children to look at.”
As she spoke, a video of the WAP performance appeared before her and Carlson, showing again the two singers on a bed.
“Virtually, what we were looking at last night was a lesbian sex scene being simulated on television, and this is considered feminist,” she said of the performance.
“This feels more sinister. This is starting to me to seem like it’s not even left or right, it’s not a political issue,” Owens added.

“This seems like an attack on American values, American traditions, and you’re actually actively trying to make children aspire to things that are grotesque,” she ended.
“We are celebrating perversity in America.”
Before agreeing and saying WAP was “totally degrading,” Carlson had his own kind words to add.
“They are trying to degrade us,” he ended, before adding this “culture” was “keeping women down in society.”
