ABC Axes Adam Lambert... Again!
by Hilton Hater at .Seriously, ABC?!?
For the second time in as many weeks, the network has pulled the plug on an Adam Lambert appearance.
First, the singer was scheduled to appear on Good Morning America the day after his controversial American Music Awards performance. In a movie that reeked of homophobia and a double standard, Lambert was axed from the show.
Instead, he performed a perfectly clean routine on Today and has gone on to admit his AMA act "went too far."
Case closed, right? Not for ABC.
Lambert's was scheduled to put on an outdoor concert on the December 17 installment of Jimmy Kimmel Live! - but an an ABC spokesperson confirmed today:
“We decided not to move forward with the booking at this time."
No reason was given for the cancelation, but the gig had been booked prior to the AMAs. Lambert will now perform on The Jay Leno Show on December 21.
By the way: woman-beating Chris Brown will still appear on 20/20 next week. That show airs on ABC.

i thought sex sells? i hate ppl that hate gays/lezbiens/bi there the same ppl and you make them stay in the closet when they have a right to get out and be the same person they are now.and instead of judging him by his Sexual Orientation. they should be judging him by the way he sings and his talents. and its sad i grew up with a judgmental family and im the only one that doesnt care if your black handicap asian white or homosexual and even dike. i love ppl that are different. cuz im the only one in the family that is different and i love hanging out with different ppl and if i ever met adam lambert i would probably get a heart attack at a young age. i just love him and his voice and his personality and that he doesnt care what ppl are saying about him. keep rocking adam! your going far!
No more ABC for me anymore....I LOVE ADAM LAMBERT!!!!!!!!!!!!! His CD is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What gets me is how ABC is trying to act all proper and pristine and yet we are talking about the home of the show "Desperate Housewives." Yeeeah, that's classy programming right there. (That's about a step away from a brothel, no?) This is all a moot point for me anyway; I'd take CBS or NBC over them any day. Let ABC fade away. (ABC= Already Been Cancelled in my book.)
I agreed, what about Janet grabbing crotch, Rihanna comming out with all thoses guns, Eimmen singing about rape, etc.... The AMA's was a very adult show this year. Everything on tv now days, even soap operas on showing alot. So, parents you need to monitor what your children watch. Go Adam!!! I will not be watching Dick Clark this year or Jimmy Kimmel (did not watch his show anyway). Go Jay Leno and Ellen!!!!!! I am a not gay. People need to get over it. I believe that is why Adam did not win AI. Chris won AI because he is a good church going boy, nothing against Chris. People need to quit judging!!!!!!!!!!
This is the same network that without batting an eye plays the Captain Morgan 'sausage fest' (slang for gay bar) commercial in the afternoon during college football games when kids are watching for sure... yet they're punishing Lambert for a performance which occurred about 10:55pm, when kids should already be in bed.
