    TOKYO, Japan (Reuters) -- A troupe of dancers in skin-colored body suits had Japanese national broadcaster NHK apologizing to viewers of its New Year's Eve music special for what seemed to be a full-scale Janet Jackson-style wardrobe malfunction. The dancers, who all appeared to be topless and wore skimpy bikini-style bottoms and feathered headdresses, covered the stage during a performance by singer DJ OZMA, prompting about 250 viewers to phone in and complain. "The dancers were wearing body suits, but we apologize for any misunderstanding," a presenter announced towards the end of the 57th annual "Red and White Song Contest". "I guess it looked a bit too real," local media quoted the singer as telling reporters after the show, which regularly tops viewer ratings on New Year's Eve in Japan. Copyright 2007 Reuters.
