Show me a graphic example of anal sex references and I'll gladly remove.
WHAT? sigh ...every nasty homophobic comment exponentially increases the hits because people keep coming to your site to read and comment even more. Or do you think fans have esp and just happened to show up here?
I AM NOT REPEATING THE ANAL SEX COMMENTS AGAIN.
They were made, in part by :

I'm not cleaning up your blog for you. Most reputable bloggers will close down the thing and clean it up from beginning to end with this type of trash showing up.
Go look for the rest. Because several and perhaps this hater's comments were repeated and embedded in replies.

I just wanted to make another point. Even John Mayer, at his most despicable, didn't have to endure this much vile hatred from posters. All he did was state his opinion about a song arrangement. Yes, he should have kept his opinion to himself. But he doesn't deserve the whole web going postal on him? He didn't beat anyone, get a DUI, assault anyone, use the N word. No he made an un-pc comment!

"Adam is entitled, all right. And entitlement isn't sexy."
Since when has Kris Allen been calling himself "entitlement"?
Before anyone says not to bring him into it, only someone who has been following the guys since at least the tour would know to make a comment like that.
It's basically just another example of evidence of who is mostly responsible for the Adam hate on the web. The funniest thing is when they pretend to be Susan Boyle fans and even funnier is that they've been doing that for months, long before this Adam/SuBo article.

Very fair article and has a lot of common sense. Although I am a Lambert Fan I am not a Glambert. I realize he is not perfect and as long as people are fair and balanced in their articles of him (like your website) I have no problem with it.

Thanks for pointing out these facts about your story. Adam fans, including myself, tend to be very protective. For me it is because he has had to go through so many hard times and he is such a kind person. However, I was so sickened by comments made to articles around the internet today that I can understand why people were upset. It is difficult when you admire someone and read an article with comments from people that are so vicious. Are these type of comments normal? Does every story draw so much hatred and vileness? Thank you for supporting this talented man.

I was one of those defending Adam, and yes, I am an Adam fan. I think I understand what you are saying and I appreciate the feedback. I wasn't upset about your original article as I was the hatred in the comments that "Anything Adam" always attracts. I guess some of us feel defensive because he seems to be a hate magnet and we are so tired of it. Thanks for the article and being fair to Adam. Rough day for Adam fans. Adam seems to be ok, I don't really know! He went shopping with his stylist today for outfits for his upcoming promotional tour. The man has style and loves to show us what he's got. Thanks again!

I GUESS WE JUMP TO ADAM'S DEFENSE SO QUICKLY, BECAUSE WE KNOW HE'S NOT PETTY, OR MEAN. I BET, BEING A ROCK 'N ROLL GUY, HIS REACTION TO SUSAN'S, "WILD HORSES", WAS ABOUT LIKE MINE WHEN I HEARD, "STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN", ON AN ELEVATOR. ADAM IS USED TO SPEAKING HIS MIND, AND MAYBE SOMETIMES, HE'LL FORGET THAT THE WORLD IS LISTENING NOW. WE LOVE HIM FOR HIS HONESTY, AND OF COURSE, LOTS OF OTHER THINGS. REALLY A LOT OF OTHER THINGS ! BUT, YOU'RE RIGHT, HE'LL LEARN BY TAKING HIS LUMPS FROM FAIR CRITIQUES, LIKE YOURS.

@Hilton Haters, After going back and reading some of your responses to Adam's fans for defending him, all I can say is are you f**king kidding me? You think its the right thing to do to just ignore the evil, hateful comments directed at Adam because he is gay? Do you have any idea how many people have suffered because most people choose to remain silent, and will not defend those who are being discriminated against. YOU CAN NEVER REMAIN SILENT! Ignoring hate will not make it disappear. It has to be called out. It has to be addressed. Remaining silent is the same as condoning. You are so quick to voice your opinion about Adam's fans defending him, but refuse to retort to those who are defaming, and discriminated against him. Your silence reinforces the evil, narrow-minded beliefs held by these bigots.

Bottom line, why write articles that generate hate. Whats the point except to get tons of hits on your site at the expense of both these great Artists...To have an opinion is not a crime. a misquoted opinion should not be acceptable. What would you expect from his fans. Try writing a negative article about Kris Allen, or Clay Aiken and the same thing would happen...Adams fans are no different then Biebers, Allens, Aikens or whoever. give it a whirl and see what happens...hehe..

Is that the best you can do? I'd like to think we've come a fair way since the centuries BC that the Greeks and Romans wrote their pearls of wisdom. Clearly, that doesn't appear to be the case for a large part of America.

The media salivate after Adam's honesty (it's so unusual) to bring in hits - that's OK - but shouldn't complain when some of those hits are not to their liking.

Me thinks it is the media that needs to chill out. I can hardly believe the huge deal that is being made of this internationally. Chill out is right - whether Adam said Susan Boyle's album stunk like limberger cheese or he said he couldn't live without listening to it 100 times a day, it is such a non-issue that it is hard to believe so many are taking it so far. Adam must be much, much more important to world peace than he or we ever suspected!
