Naked Singularities

Could the event horizon of a black hole be distorted somehow to give us a glimpse of what is inside--a "naked singularity"?

Such a naked singularity would be a breakdown in the laws of physics. After that, you could no longer guess what would come out of the black hole--it could be anything (to quote William H. Press) "from television sets to busts of Abraham Lincoln."
