Adam Lambert AMA Performance

In a jaw-dropping performance, Adam Lambert:

  1. dragged a female dancer around by her ankles.
  2. pushed a male dancer’s head into his crotch simulating oral sex.
  3. walked a pair of males around like dogs on a leash.
  4. feverishly made out with his (allegedly  straight) male keyboard player.

In response to his performance, Lambert received over 1500 complaints, was taken off Good Morning America, replaced with woman-beater Chris Brown, and ridiculed by many.  Like Lambert, I feel that female performers have pushed the sexual envelope for years.  We have the infamous Britney Spears,Christina Aguilera, and Madonna Kiss, Britney’s body suit, and Janet Jackson’s nip slip.  While Lambert may want to use the double standard and the fact that he is a gay male in his defense, I am not going for it.  He has blamed the parents for letting their children watch a show that is for the fans, while many fans are children.  I believe in learning by example.  The examples set in past performances have led to great ridicule and controversy.  Did you think your racy, jaw-dropping, and inappropriate performance would not generate the same results?!
