Grace Slick
Who would have thought that the lead singer of Jefferson Airplane would be the first person to use the “F” word on television. When Slick and the band appeared on “The Dick Cavett Show” in 1969, it was the day that sent television censors into full panic.
They performed their hit song “We Can Be Together,” which features the famous four-letter word. Slick’s vocals shocked Cavett, the live audience, and viewers around the globe. The incident led to increased censorship on television.
