In the past actions such as these would result in controversy but also boost stars such as Madonna and Britney Spears. But Adam Lambert was removed from a morning talk show where he was to appear as well as much controversy has resulted. Now while I have heard that all publicity is good publicity I have to wonder exactly what will happen. I am sad that actions such as those where shown on a T.V. show I often watch with my children.
What do you think?
I thought it was totally inappropriate for Adam to perform this on the AMA. I was very disturbed by it, as well as very disappointed. The television audience was a vast array of ages, and I do not recall getting a heads up from Ryan Seacrest that the performance could be suggestive and inappropriate for children. I was contemplating purchasing Adam's cd prior to what I witnessed, I will not be a fan of Mr. Lamberts any longer. Poor judgment was made. I wonder what his mother thought about his performance and how she felt hearing all the publicity.
ReplyDeleteYes his performance was sexually provocative but then again Miley Cyrus basically did a pole dance, Britney Spears, Madonna, and Christina Aguilera kissed on stage and have very sexual performances as well. I think it is a shame he is being targeted due to it being male on male. There should not be a double standard. Discrimination is never okay and that is how I see Adam Lambert's treatment.
ReplyDeleteI think the AMAs are a grown-up show. They are live so anything can happen, and Adam wasn't on till 11pm.
ReplyDeleteLittle kids shouldn't be watching tv at that hour. I like Adam and feel he was justified in expressing himself artistically like he did. Why doesn't anyone complain when girls kiss or where scanty outfits or gyrate provocativly. His voice is amazing and I like his "entertainment."
