    ABC’s loss is CBS’s gain. The hypocrites at ABC will have egg all over their face. Adam’s got everyone wrapped around his little finger now.

      I know, this new network called ABC will probably fold. Unlike the “cookie cutter” singer who’s had a CD out for one whole day.

      • Melanie

        “Cookie cutter”? Really? I think you can accuse him of a lot of things, but cookie cutter implies that he’s just like every other artist – which clearly he’s not. If he was, there wouldn’t be such a fuss being made.

      • Michael

        If you want cookie cutter – look no further than Kris Allen. I mean, he didn’t even perform at the AMA’s; but, strangely enough, the RUNNER UP did! LMAO

  • mik

    Adam’s dirty, Janets dirty. Good for ABC. Tired of seeing this gay and S&m Hollywood cr*p as mainstream…it’s not. Just sing dam* it! These are the same people who think Perez Hilton looked “cute” He looked like the evil Gremlin in “Gremlins” except gay. What if John Myers started doing this?

    • You’re stupid!

      How old are you, 10??

    • Petra

      You are scary- because you are sooooo ugly!!!! I hope karma will get you…

    • Scott

      Way to show yourself for the biggot you are dumba$$!

    • blox

      I find it irritatingly funny you have to censor the word “damn”. Sorry to bring you into the current century, but unfortunately for your POV, sex sells. ABC knows it as do all the major networks and the music industry. It’s only when they backpedal and take on the “Holier Than Thou” attitude, offering up their courted artists as sacrificial lambs that I take issue. I DO give a damn.

      And yeah – Perez Hilton did look like a Gremlin – that was a good call.

    • mark

      YOU ARE AN IDIOT

    • Marc

      LOLOLOL ok let me just say I am gay and its called entertainment lol not all of us want to see someone sit and sing… I mean i get what you are saying he should have focused on singing more so we could hear how talented he really is i agree with that but dude lol gay people are people just the same as you and I agree with u that perez looked like a gremlin lol he is not attractive but that wouldnt change if he was straight lol stop waisting ur time fearing things u know nothing about lol gays and sex omg! what ever will we do! lol without sex there would be no u and thank the gays for music/art/fashion/dance/culture and stimulating the shi* out of our economy after a couple of your bible toting buddies Fuc*ed everything up with their small mindedness and biggotry *ahemmm bushh ahemmmm lol

      • chrltncdave

        PREACH IT MARC!

      • james

        It has nothing to do with him being gay, nobody cares about that anymore (look at TV programming) It was still in bad taste, and a very poor performance.

      • Max

        Is no one cares James then why was the original post replied to by Marc by someone who cared and I assume those saying no one cared missed the post above calling for gays to be killed-sick. Clearly some care and while Lambert was awful until those talking about it first stand up to the bigots then it makes it seem as everyone is a bigot. I found his act boring tiresome and questionable but I also get many of the people complaining are bigots. I want to be able to say I disliked Lambert’a act but will not support half of the comments made by many on here.

    • chrltncdave

      you jackhole if you knew anything then you would know that John Meyer frequents gay clubs and YES HE KISSES GUYS TOO! So stick that in your homophobic bible and pray about it!

  • SG

    GO ADAM! ABC are wimps and bigots really.

    • Father of Three

      As a father of three (8,12,15), i was concerned. My daughters really enjoyed Idol this season and all three voted for Adam. They were aware of his lifestyle and that was no big deal. they were really looking forward to seeing his performance, but they left the room they felt so uncomfortable and then afterwards we got a lot of uncomfortable questions. If any performer, striaght or otherwise does these things, i for one wish they would do them elsewhere , not on public airways. He lost 5 of his biggest fans last night

  • Kim

    Another reason not to watch GMA and to boycott ABC

  • Pakah

    Let’s all buy Adam’s album and make it number one. We’re queer, we’re here, deal with it.

    • Em

      I bought Adam’s album because it’s great. I doubt he’d want anyone to buy it as part of an agenda.

      • Em

        That was inflammatory – sorry. I just meant that Adam’s music is reason enough to buy the album. He doesn’t have to be a ’cause.’

    • Petra

      Getting it for everyone for Christmas!!! Sending overseas as well…. IO absolutely adore his approach to everything he does. He is not only incredibly talented but also very inteligent!!! LOVE HIM!

  • rebekah

    It’s not a surprise ABC cancelling Adam Lambert on Good Morning America. What he did at the AMA’s was not a good thing for the world to see. Adam should keep such acts to himself.

    • del

      And what about Janet and Rianna and Lady Gaga? It’s ok for them but not for Adam. Total double standard.

  • Em

    Yay! I guess I’m watching the Early Show tomorrow! Whew – that was close. I thought I was going to have to watch GMA. Thank you, ABC! Thank you for reiterating your pathetic, conservative, knee-jerk pettiness.

  • Joe

    Ridiculous. Did they cancel Miley after her pole dance at the Teen Choice Awards? And that was a show for kids. After Janet’s ‘nipplegate’ and now this…it’s amazing how riled up people get over anything remotely sexual. As a country America is terrified of sex.

  • mary

    I HOPE EVERYONE CONTACTS CBS TO BOYCOT THIS PERFORMANCE. Adam is despicable and vile.

    Note: I was a huge fan, but am not anylonger as he has revealed his true nature. This is NOT Entertaniment for us, it is Adam entertaining himself.

  • MIKe

    So the lesson – if you are going to try grabbing crotches and simulating any kind of sex – make sure it’s man/ woman or woman/woman. That doesn’t offend the straight male head honchos at networks.

    • BRAVO

      EXACTLY!

    • DJB

      That’s wrong. the Madonna/Britney kiss was just as controversial at the time. It has nothing to do with Adam being gay. BJ’s are for pornos not a nationaly telecasted award shows.

    • jake

      No – simulating sex is inappropriate, gay or straight. If it were just a kiss, then the network would be hypocritical to complain. But simulated oral sex is inappropriate, period. And it’s too bad: Lambert hurts the gay cause by doing so, because many in the straight world will lump the kiss in with the more inappropriate antic – and it makes any argument to defend the kiss much more difficult because it’s lumped with something that was absolutely inappropriate, gay or straight.

      • Jan

        Yeah but having actual sex on Soap Operas is cool right!! And the whole murder, rape, violence thing on PrimeTime TV every night is totally great! Ha! You got your morals dude.

      • Johnny

        Well now all of the Soaps are going to be taken of the air!

    • Gayer Than Thou

      No, no. I think the lesson is: don’t simulate sex. America wants you to keep it real, entertainers!

  • jd

    when will the watchdogs get it? the more they complain. the more popular he’ll become. now if after his performance, no one said anything. his career would have been over before it started.

  • gigi

    If anything this should have been an opportunity for ABC and Adam Lambert to redeem fix the faux pas. Oh well!

    • gigi

      *and fix…

    • Shamrock

      don’t you hate how you can’t edit your posts like some websites let you

      • gigi

        haha! I know!!

  • Adam Fan

    ABC’s loss is CBS’s GAIN. I can’t wait to watch Adam Perform 2morrow morning, U GO ADAM SHOW THOSE PEOPLE WHAT THEY ARE MISSING. LUV U.

  • jfms777

    The bottom line is that, because of all this, Kris Allen will go from “American Idol” to “The Biggest Loser.” But then again he should have
    not gotten AI in the first place.

  • kjk

    This is ridiculous, Sacha Baron Cohen as Bruno was bare-a**ed in the 69 position with Eminem at the MTV awards and people are picking on Adam? Not to mention all of the other raunchy acts on the AMA’s – Adam just did it better.

    • EPK

      DITTO!!!!

    • kct

      My guess is that the Bruno thing was on cable, who don’t have to adhere to the 1950′s coda of the FCC.
      Adam’s music isn’t for me, but I listened to yet another great interview with him on Z100 this morning. The dude is funny,intelligent and articulate. Good luck, Adam!
