Adam Lambert’s ‘For Your Entertainment’ Video, Starring Snakes And Smirks

picture-17

Wait, this is how to defuse controversy? Oh that’s right—they’re not really trying to. Adam Lambert’s council of advisors picked a rather opportune moment to release the vid for his lead single, “For Your Entertainment.” The vid — which initally looked plenty debaucherous — is a lot less provocative than his American Music Awards performance. But there’s certainly no shortage of seductive smirks, eyebrow raises, male-and-female flirting, and tons of snake-handling—no, not that snake handling. Check out the sex-ay video after the jump.

    Love it--so many metaphors. Great commentary on a twisted society. Go Adam!
  • MhS
    Yes Adam is a brilliant artist perhaps the greatest of all time, he is now more popular than Jesus.

    That put the "er" in "derivative." The choreography's lifted directly from Paula Abdul's "Cold Hearted Snake." Lambert seems to be presenting himself as the secret love child of Adam Ant and Iggy Pop, only with less edge than either.

    I'm amazed that Lambert's ploys for attention are seen as shocking. This territory was covered (better) 20 years ago.

    I agree with ComeOnEileen. Every time I see him I think he looks like a washed-up Adam Ant. Nothing shocking about it at all, unless we took a time machine back to 1979 or something.

    I listened to sound clips of "For Your Entertainment" yesterday at Amazon and I thought the website was mistakenly playing clips from a P!nk album. Totally derivative and boring.
  • MhS
    well isn't that how you get to be a finalist on Americna Idol, being totally derivative and boring.
  • Joyce
    do you mean a total bore like chris allen
  • Here_Now
    Meh. Christ, that was boring.
  • AnonymousFormerIdolatrix
    Amen, ComeOnEileen!

    I was OK with him actually, until I found out he has no restraint as a performer (just in terms of vocals and mannerisms) yet, and he also has a totally ridonkulous perception of himself as an innovator. It's really off-putting.

    talk about over analysing - sit back and enjoy maybe for once in your life

    Amazing CD. Best pop debut in 20 years. Easy. He does borrow from all the people mentioned in other posts but he is also something completely new.

    Adam is boring!?? Are your kidding?? He is the best in the business. His voice is amazing and he looks gorgeous. His CD has songs for everyone. Upbeat like FYE or soft and sweet. Just listen everyone before you go and judje and make rude comment. Go Adam! you rock!
  • LSCHN
    Please excuse the haters. They're just attention-seeking wannabes who are as unable to stay away from Adam as his fans.

    adam lambert is created by God for our entertainment in the disguise of a demon prince
