AMA's

OK.. on a note that does relate to the topic of homosexuality and queerness....
Have you guys seen Adam Lambert's 2009 AMA's Performance?
Lambert is openly gay. He came out after the season of American idol ended.

now.. there's a ton of different sexual and (for that matter) queer references in this video. But I was SHOCKED when 0:32 came up... Really Adam Lambert?!

What do you guys think?

  1. Thanks for posting this! I wasn't fully watching his performance but then everyone was going crazy about how shocking it was. I expected something would happen since the announcer voice guy said that his act will be something to talk about tomorrow, and I thought that was kind of weird for them to promote him like that but they want us to stick around after commercials..

    But yea, I get that he's out and gay, but that was a bit weird, plus making out with the guy up there. I don't even know of any gay singers (besides Clay Aiken? another AI product..) that are openly performing this way. I guess it's reminiscent of the Madonna-Britney kiss, except neither are lesbians. I'm not sure how I feel about Adam Lambert, except that I didn't know him before.

  2. UGH! I wanna watch this SO BADLY now! But ABC like took down all the ones posted on YouTube! I hope someone just keeps putting them on!

    Also, I went to a taping of the David Letterman Show today and he was the musical guest. I mean, he didn't seem racy to me at all! And this is for like late night tv!
