Jerry Springer: I Refuse to Wear Clothes [VHS]
Greeting the viewer to the "I Refuse to Wear Clothes" episode are Adara and Amanda, two blond, shapely women, who--surprise!--prefer to conduct their daily affairssanswardrobe.  This is the only video in the Jerry Springer home video series that is actually a full-length show, rather than just clipped highlights.  Adara works and lives without a stitch of clothing to sheathe her body.  Grocery shopping, walking around town, working as half of the duo entitled Scandalous, Adara simply feels it is more natural and more comfortable to be nude.  Sitting on the stage, wearing nothing but thigh-high lace-up boots, she makes the case for nudity. While her boyfriend is supportive, her mother and sister are less than enthusiastic.  Her tearful mother pleads with her to cover up, and her brother-in-law hurls invectives her way.  She is soon joined by best friend Amanda, whose boyfriend confronts her with the ultimatum: it's either me or your nudity.  This isn't, by far, the most shocking of Jerry Springer's TV talk shows; only one mild fight breaks out.  But itisrather startling to see these two Lady Godivas amidst the clothed crowd.--Jenny Brown
