Marie Osmond weighs in on Utah woman charged for being topless in own home, likening her behavior to 'pornography'

After a Utah woman made headlines for being charged with three counts of lewdness for being topless in front of her stepchildren in her own home, co-host of “The Talk,” Marie Osmond, weighed in, likening the woman’s behavior to “pornography.”

The Utah woman, Tilli Buchanan, and her husband said they were doing construction in their garage when fibers and dust made them itchy, and the two removed their shirts.
