that are not licensed for toplessness. The punk rock singer Wendy O. Williams who performed during the 1970s and 1980s often wore electrical tape on stage to cover her nipples. In the 2010s the heavy metal band Butcher Babies briefly copied the look. In the 2014 short film Miley Cyrus: Tongue Tied the singer appears with her nipples concealed under black crosses made of nipple tape. In the United States public indecency laws traditionally required bare-breasted dancers to wear pasties. These restrictions were relaxed in the mid 20th century but still apply in some parts of the country. In other parts new laws against nude dancing were introduced in the late 20th century, requiring dancers to wear pasties and a G-string. These laws have been subject to legal challenge on First Amendment grounds, arguing that nude dancing is a form of free speech.
