Dress sparks outrage in Thailand

In Thailand, actress Chotiros "Amy" Suriyawong is in hot water over a slinky black dress she wore to Thailand's equivalent of the Oscars last week. She has since been axed from her latest movie project and ordered by her university to perform community service and will spend two weeks reading to the blind to make up for her fashion faux pas.

Amy was caught up in a 'morality drive' based on traditional Buddhist values launched by the military government that seized power in Thailand last fall.

I don't know what the big deal is - I think she looks fine. Real fine!
