ABC Kisses Off Adam Lambert Again
by Hilton Hater at .Adam Lambert was honored by Barbara Walters this week as one of the most Fascinating People of 2009.
However, during the special, ABC special did NOT air a clip of the same-sex kiss that took place between the singer and his keyboard player at this year's AMAs.
Said the network in its defense: "It was an editorial decision to show very little from the performance and focus on the fresh, new interview with Adam Lambert."
Hmmm... sounds fishy for two reasons:
- The interview largely focused on the kiss.
- The network did show Lady GaGa kissing a woman during an interview with that superstar, saying of the difference: "The Lady Gaga kiss was used quickly in context of things that upset her father."
ABC added:
"The network has a solid record of showing gay men and women in primetime, which is why GLAAD has given ABC top honors for the positive portrayal of gays and lesbians for the past several years."
That may be true, but Lambert fans can't get over the double standard applied to this burgeoning star. Will ABC's statements satisfy his rabid fan base? If you're included in it, you tell us!

To those of you who say Adam is talented, agree! To those of you who say his actions were the "norm"..shame on you for accepting such things... Adam is a talent, and for him to engage in such antics on TV - is to take away from his talent. Anyone can be crude, rude, nasty if they want to be. He can sing, so he doesn't need to distract attention from his performance with such crude actions.
LOVE YOU ADAM, GO FORWARD AND SHINE UP IN THE SKY OF THE MUSIC WORLD.
The For Your Entertainment video is the best I've seen since Michael Jackson's early videos. His only misstep was the AMAs - but he's making up for that less than stellar vocal and mistake in judgement by one amazing performance after another. He is an incredibly talented and fascinating performer!!!
The HG loves lembert, so whats next? If Adam records himself buying his own CD, The Media would be all over it. Please! All of you are bigotry and bias. Supporting Adam at any cost. LOL!!! Adam is a screechy, castrati-like, same old tone screamer...Annoying! Allison was the best. Matt second. Kris third. Megan fourth, and Danny fifth. Adam should have been kicked off the show for being just like all 1980's long hair screamers.
Dear Madame Barbara Walters, I recorded and listened to your “10 Most fascinating people…†and The view with Adam Lambert. There are two conclusions: 1. I adore you for supporting our beloved, talented, charismatic, witty, articulate, sweet, kind, generous and OH! So gorgeous ADAM. You helped him at the perfect time. I will never be able to thank you enough for this. 2. I figured out who was the most fascinating person among the 10. Sorry , it was NOT Michelle. She just married great. That’s it that’s all. The only person that fascinated me more than Adam was…………YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, you are fascinating because you are still young, smart, connected, you prove you like life, and you still can represent the American nation and STAND for your bright ideas / tastes / opinions. LOVE YOU BARBARA WALTERS. YOU ARE FASCINATING.
