Nipple shield (jewelry)

A nipple shield is a nipple-shaped sheath worn over the areola and nipple during breastfeeding.

A nipple shield was infamously shown on television in the United States, and around the world, as part of Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction during the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show.

A nipple piercing gained considerable media attention after Super Bowl XXXVIII, during which Janet Jackson exposed her right breast on which she had a nipple shield applied to a piercing.

The game is also known for its controversial halftime show in which Janet Jackson's breast, adorned with a nipple shield, was exposed by Justin Timberlake for about half a second, in what was later referred to as a "wardrobe malfunction".

Andy Puzder, CEO of Carl's Jr., says the group needs to "get a life...This isn't Janet Jackson-there is no nipple shield in this," referring to the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show.

As the song reached the final line, "I'm gonna have you naked by the end of this song," Timberlake pulled off a part of Jackson's costume, revealing her outer right breast (adorned with a large, sun-shaped nipple shield, a piece of jewelery worn to accentuate the appearance of a nipple piercing).
