The video was deemed too sexually explicit for MTV and was banned from the network. Madonna responded to the banning: "Why is it that people are willing to go and watch a movie about someone getting blown to bits for no reason at all, and nobody wants to see two girls kissing and two men snuggling?" On December 3, 1990, ABC's "Nightline" played the video in its entirety, then interviewed Madonna live about the video's sexual content and censorship. When asked whether she stood to make more money selling the video than airing it on MTV, she answered, "Yeah, so lucky me." She also accused MTV of double standards regarding censorship, expressing that she did not understand why they banned the video yet allowed videos that contained violence and degradation to women to continue receiving regular airplay. The video was then released in VHS, and became a bestselling "video single".
