Lead Character in 'Ted' Being Pursued Sexually by Plushie Community
Seth MacFarlane's new movie "Ted" hits theaters today, and wouldn't you know it, an unlikely star is emerging from it for unlikely reasons: The stuffed bear who headlines the film is rapidly becoming objectified by the plushie community.
In case you're not familiar, plushies are folks who have a sexual fetish that involves stuffed animals. There are gatherings for plushies, and often plushies will dress up in something resembling a mascot uniform. According to TMZ, a representative from the porn site Clips4Sale has contacted MacFarlane and asked if he would consider pimping licensing Ted's image out to them. In a letter, they reportedly said:
"Not since Alf has there been this kind of excitement over a stuffed animal...We are very serious and would like to engage in talks with you at your earliest convenience."
