Question: Should ABDC be pushing 'the hooch' on We Are Heroes?

MTV Remote Control posted a video on the wardrobe choices for the Beyonce Challenge. We are Heroes are given silver booty shorts. But does this work for WAH or against them? Quoting reader ThePrez:"Poor taste in style could end up stereotyping WAH as "selling out with sex appeal" or being "hooches". This could possibly pigeon hole them tremendously and result in an unexpected cut due to decreased votes... I spent all last season defending Fly Khicks because I knew that they disagreed with the wardrobe selections...This is very unfortunate..these are such powerful, skilled and beautiful dancers...[the wardrobe choice] is ruining the show."

Do you agree? While it might be good TV to employ sexy costumes for eye candy and to differentiate between the girl crews, does it hurt the credibility and chances of the scantier clad crew? Thanks for bringing this up, ThePrez!
