Dear Anster,and wiserolder....
the American Music Awards is and has always been for every age, and this is the first time they have ever allowed that kind of mess on the show, sure lots of other performers, have done bad trash as well but they had their own show, not the music awards. Oh and by the way, it wasn't the late show... the News came on after the awards....at 10:00Pm. Kids have always watched the music awards.. Oh and Mr. Yup, Brittney spears was also bashed for what happened with her, she practicly lost everything, she is just now getting her name back as a performer, but then again, none of this was at the American music awards in front of small kids.

I think Adam Lambert mad a pure disaster, I may not agree with his choice of life stlye, but that has nothing to do with how I feel about what his performance on the music awards was, it will probably put a end to his caree in music. I know and understand he says others before him done such things, but was it on a National music awards, no, it was on shows put on by the person performing and all of the Nation had a choice in what their children had to watch. He did this and children had to see his garbage.... and that is what I think of him now... I loved him on American Idol, he was one of my favorites... Adam you probably messed up son.....you may be going back to your old job......I would not ever buy your music now.... you really diappointed me... All adults don't like to watch it , but children should not have to.

First, I hate the song really, it doesn't match Adam's voice at all. Second, the performance was very intense of course, but I think there are some limits... Specially for an upcoming artist. That's more of a middle song in a full concert of your own, not a music award. I mean even Madonna's kiss was way different... Adam could have omited the kiss, the other thing was enough. I mean the poor guy looks like surprised, he's definetely pulling off... He probably was like S*** I was just playing my keyboard!!

Gee whiz, if he didn't have any talent then why did the AMA ask him to sing for them in the first place, to keep the other no-talents on the show company??

WOOOOO WAIT UP???? His Excuse is that there is a double standard??????
I DON'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME SOMEONE TOLD ME AS A STRAIGHT WOMAN....
"SURE KATIE GO AHEAD AND HAVE A MAN STICK HIS TOUNGE DOWN YOUR THROAT AND ALL OVER THE CROTCH OF YOUR PANTS LIKE YOU`RE RECIEVING ORAL SEX, AT 10 PM (ISH) AT NIGHT ON A NATIONALLY TELEVISED PRIME TIME SHOW???????? Please!!! My gay and lesbian friends are dissapointed in Adam, and HE WENT WAY tooooo WAYYYYY toooo far for someone who hasn't even been close to being even a one hit wonder yet? What was he thinking? THERE IS NO SUCH DOUBLE STANDARD, This is about THE KIDS watching a prime time awards show before going to bed to go to school!!! Is there something wrong with his brain? IF HE WAS STRAIGHT THIS STILL WOULD HAVE BEEN WRONG! And he needs to apologize to all his supporters a.s.a.p. and if not, he needs to be dumped by his label. He is pushing back all the efforts of gay and lesbians to get the rights they deserve, by acting as a discustin

I don't think anyone should be offended by Adam's performance, after all, he is a master showman. Career wise, it may have been too much too soon and I don't think his vocals were the best that night.

Why? He was very talented on AI and at least he had charisma and certain reservations then. Though it's good we found out early what direction he's heading towards in terms of stage persona. If this is his future, it looks like a dark, confusing place to be right now-drawing in on controversy when he clearly has talent to grab people's attention. This might be some coming out shocker performance but since we already knew all about your lifestyle, we didn't need any hinted explicit content to verify anything. Please remember kids are watching.

I LOVE Adam and I LOVED watching him perform at the AMA's. I don not think his performance was inappropriate at all. The things he did are part of life and should not make anyone feel uneasy. I know as much as you that we do these things but some of us are not as open as others about sex or sexual things. So I think all the people that say it was inapproprite should get a life and live a little because life is to short to take things so seriously. ADAM I LOVED YOU EVERY SINCE I SEEN YOU ON IDOL YOU ARE WONDERFUL. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND MAYBE OTHERS WILL FOLLOW IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS. YOU ARE THE BEST:)

supposedly he was play acting the lyrics to the song, however he did such a bad job singing the song that nobody got this. he is just not a true performer. he blew an awesome opportunity but instead showed why he lost on AI

I thought Adam was brilliant too! Finally someone who has the balls..no pun intended to do something different for a change. People need to grow up and hey if you didn't like the performance why didn't you turn the TV off halfway through?

What did I think of Adam's performanced St the AMA,a? BRILLIANT:) he is an individual who is unique and exquisite. People really need to grow up! Madonna and Britney can do it but Adam's performance

As an artist/musician, I think the performance was crap. There's a time and a place for everything, something Adam evidently is too immature to understand.

Adam is DESPERATE for attention!! He is a sad, pathetic young man and his 15 minutes of fame are OVER!!!!!!

A lot of the comments stating it was not in bad taste, they loved it, & it being Adam, that we should have expected it, is just totally absurbed. Brittany Spears, Madonna and a lot of other pathetic women have all made complete fools & trashed themselves in the public eye for years. All these women who go on stage almost naked, kissing, & doing provocative moves, & showing private body parts, should be banned to only porn channels. That goes for men & women. There is hardly a decent show or commercial fit for anyone to watch, let alone children. This man's head shoved in his crotch & the man on a leash & touching women's crotches should be stuff he does in the privacy of his own bedroom, if this is what he chooses to do. I'm no prude, but this is not stuff, no matter who does it, that should EVER be allowed on TV, except on porn channels. Then, if people want to see this kind of stuff, they can pay for it & watch it til their heart's content. All the TV

Oh ICK yourself and take a look in the mirror. Who's onstage and who's not? Get over it people. Nothing was that shocking, its Adam, wha' the heck did you think? Keep your kids indoors with the lights off and hopefully the big bad world won't get them. But it's true, what were the kids doing up that late....on a school night? Bad parents!!

If you're watching the AMA's, then expect anything. It's not a program for the kiddies. Adam wanted to shock the audience in the same way that Madonna has over the years. Sex sells. I think he's a great talent. If you didn't like his performance, you had the option of turning it off.

his performance was so inappropriate for an American Music Award. Thats the kind of performance you do at your own concert. Being a new artist i believe that was suicide. It was suicide because he touched a very controversial issue plus he did not show respect for his audience. The same respect other artist show in those events. He pissed a lot of people off just like Janet did when she showed her chest at the Super Bowl. I believe all parents can do is talk to their child about sex and make sure you are raising your child and not the media , and raising them to worship GOD and follow the Bible or whatever religion you are and let them know the crazy things people are doing and establish morals with your child because the people in this world are trash. And once you do that you have nothing to worry about.

This. Was. Ridiculous. Being publicly advertised and trying to get your name out to people does not mean having a sex show on live, national, and uncensored television. On the other hand, actual talent does. What happened to your amazing vocal performances on American Idol?!

Whatever......just trying to shock people, like THAT has never been done before!! Be more appropriate for the American Music Awards ~ DUH!!!

I think that someone like this should never be allowed to preform at the Awards ever again.....That was really gross and it was viewed by so many children and this preformance should hav enever been aired.... I would never buy his album. And I could care less if I ever see him prefor again. Disgusting is the only word I can say!!!!!
yup
November 24th, 2009 10:25 AM
Cmon, it's not really much different from brittney girating with boobs hanging out, or miley pole dancing. When you people start demanding that miley starts singing in a strip club, then we can talk
