But the clips of both actresses shown in the audience appear to be from past awards shows; Watts is wearing a totally different dress and has her hair styled differently than she did the rest of the night (though the man sitting beside her does offer a pointed look at her chest when she&#8217;s on camera). <\/p>\n<p>Still, even if the reactions from the actual actresses weren&#8217;t real, the song didn&#8217;t get a lot of love from Twitter users. Some are pointing out today that several of the scenes MacFarlane references were rape scenes and say his use of them as comedy was disrespectful. <\/p>\n<p><script src=\"http:\/\/player.ooyala.com\/iframe.js#ec=d3cWJtOTpYbo5OpR4exeywnusgiPLvlb&#038;%23038;pbid=NTU2NmNlMDlhM2NmMWJkM2JhMTNiZDAz\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p>The boobs song at the Oscars is&#8230; well, puerile doesn&#8217;t quite cover it.
