GALLATIN — Mayor Don Wright has raised eyebrows in town by allowing the makers of "Thong Girl 3" to film in his office on a Sunday.

Wright says he supports filmmaking for economic development in town and only knew generally what the movie was about.

"They told me it was a film about a superhero woman and there was no nudity or any kind of offensive stuff in the film," Wright said.

In the film series, the risque superheroine dons red underwear and "polices the skies with an iron fist" to keep Nashville safe, according to the Thong Girl Web site, thonggirlfilms.com.

Some say using City Hall for this kind of movie could be offensive.

"I feel that if he used the city property to allow the filming of such a movie, that it's extremely degrading to the citizens of Gallatin, and I think it's totally unacceptable," District 2 City Councilman Dale Bennett said.

Jim Hawkins, of Gallatin, wondered about what led to scenes of "Thong Girl 3: Revenge of the Dark Widow" being filmed here.

"It's interesting that we have a Tennessee Supreme Court nominee who appeared in a film about controversial Hollywood filmmakers, so I am wondering if the state film commission is now referring movie companies to our elected officials," Hawkins said.

D'Army Bailey, the nominee, is co-founder of the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. But the Circuit Court judge has faced criticism for promoting the 1996 film "The People vs. Larry Flynt," in which he played a judge who presided over the trial of the high-profile publisher and pornographer.
