Gary Barlow: `Music videos are too sexual for kids`

The Take That star and X Factor judge has son Daniel, 11, and daughters Emily, nine, and Daisy, two, with wife Dawn. He said that he was so appalled by the content of one that he had to turn it off before Emily saw it.

He told OK! magazine, 'Music videos these days are so sexual. The other day, I wanted some music in the kitchen and put on one of the music TV channels and a video came on which was so rude that I had to turn it off because my nine-year-old was with me.'

While he said he's no 'prude', he worries that the saucy moves impact on the younger generation.

'It all filters down. We had girls auditioning for The X Factor and you wouldn't believe the kind of moves they were doing. I sat there and thought, 'Jesus Christ'.

'I have had five nine-year-olds in my back seat singing along to Black Eyed Peas songs with 'F' this, 'F' that and I'm like, 'Right, I'm stopping the car!''
