In fact, that was more boneheaded than his actions. He gave the performance on an NBC program. NBC should have had him on so he could be "grilled". They are giving CBS the golden goose. I got distracted before I hit the submit button. Harry Smith just made ABC look like idiots plus they had "taken aback" but proud Adam's mom on the show. It was priceless and perfect.

You should discuss this too as these happened way before 11 pm when Adam's portion came on. Did your kids get to watch them too? How do they feel about rape?? @CMAquarii, so I guess it follows that you also want the performance of Janet Jackson who grabbed a dancer’s crotch and her own, Eminem praising rape and a rapist banned too???

To a lot of people it wasn't about the gay kiss (which is what I'm assuming your "ignorant" statement stemmed from), it was about the sexuality of the performance (which includes everything from oral sex simulation to another sex act simulation he did with a girl on the chair, bondage, etc...). It's not just about adults being prudes, it's also about the younger fans who watched the show. Okay Adam doesn't want to appeal to all the younger fans when he said something like "If you don't like it, then maybe I'm not for you". I get that. But considering his platform was American Idol, I'm sure many kids and parents tuned in not expecting all that sex in your face. Just something to think about before you go off accusing everyone of being discriminatory just because they didn't happen to like what they saw. @Wicked Glitter – If you’re going to accuse people of being narrow-minded and ignorant, you yourself have to have an open mind to the other side.

I could be wrong, come some epic "shocktastic" stunt on CBS' Early Show, but I highly doubt he'd do that. ABC just ended up losing viewers and an audience that are pretty vocal (probably more vocal than those who complained about Lambert in the first place), so overall a pretty idiot decision IMO.

I'll respect him more if he pull off a more Queen performance but he was nowhere near that level...felt like another Britney's show! Adam can do bette than that. Kris should have performed at the AMA! His Matchbox20 Bright Lights performances on the Idol Tour showed he is capable of closing an award show with a bang....singing+piano+finishing off with the electric guitar, amazing stuff! That is what I call music! Nothing against Adam….he’s got incredible vocals but thought he over did it on that AMA performance! freedom is good, but over-the-top is not healthy!

I filed a few complaints with ABC today. I intend to boycott that cowardly station until they put Adam Lambert on. That goes for all of their sponsors too. I just watched Adam's official video for "For Your Entertainment", and ADAM IS HOT! I t is a gorgeous video starring a gorgeous man. You can watch it on Adam's official fan site, or on YouTube. glitter4adam has a good one. I just bought Adam's CD,and it is spectacular. I'm glad I didn't let narrow-minded ignorance rob me of a magnificent musical experience. Goodbye ABC hello CBS! I filed a few complaints with ABC today.
