Oh, right, they're apologizing now...

Janet Jackson got a little too much national exposure Sunday. Now CBS is "apologizing."

"CBS deeply regrets the incident," spokeswoman LeslieAnne Wade said after the network received several calls about the show.

The two singers were performing a flirtatious duet to end the halftime show, and at the song's finish, Timberlake reached across Jackson's leather gladiator outfit and pulled off the covering to her right breast.

The network quickly cut away from the shot, and did not mention the incident on the air.

Timberlake said he did not intend to expose Jackson's breast.

The New York Times is all over the story, with frantic apologies from Timberlake, MTV, the National Football League... Wait a while and you might have Bill Clinton apologizing.

I'd say that by 11:00 tonight all you're going to have to do is Google "janet halftime" to get a nice freeze-frame of the bold mammary.   Update: Here it is, right on Yahoo News.
