lookan’ awkward onstage. no big deal
Alone with Everybody
the flesh covers the bone
and they put a mind
in there and
sometimes a soul,
and the women break
vases against the walls
and the men drink too
much
and nobody finds the
one
but keep
looking
crawling in and out
of beds.
flesh covers
the bone and the
flesh searches
for more than
flesh.there’s no chance
at all:
we are all trapped
by a singular
fate.nobody ever finds
the one.the city dumps fill
the junkyards fill
the madhouses fill
the hospitals fill
the graveyards fillnothing else
fills.-Charles Bukowski

For his first televised performance since the Season Eight finale of the American Idol, Adam Lambert pulled out all the stops and his risqué rendition of “For Your Entertainment” stunned the audience at Los Angeles’ Nokia Theatre and the millions watching the American Music Awards live on ABC.
Lambert delivered a “sexy” performance as he closed the live show with simulated oral sex from a male backup dancer, a brief make-out session with his male keyboardist and a giant mirrored prop so the audience could see the looks on their own shocked faces. Apparently producers weren’t informed about the guy-on-guy kiss in advance, and after the show, Lambert told Rolling Stone the musician he kissed is a straight man.
Lambert also said if ABC decides to cut any parts of his performance for the West Coast rebroadcast, it would amount to “discrimination.”
“Female performers have been doing this for years — pushing the envelope about sexuality — and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out. We’re in 2009; it’s time to take risks, be a little more brave, time to open people’s eyes and if it offends them, then maybe I’m not for them. My goal was not to piss people off, it was to promote freedom of expression and artistic freedom,” said Lambert.

Well, Adam Lambert got pulled from GMA apparently for his homosexual tendencies in his live performances. (Disclaimer: I am not homophobic, and I am a supporter of homosexuality). If you are going to go on a ‘family’ network that is broadcasted across the nation: do not shove a man OR a woman’s face into your crotch, or shove your tongue down their throats. This is just unacceptable. Whether it’s a gay man doing this with another man, or a straight man doing this with a woman, I just don’t think it’s right. There’s other ways to portray a wonderful performance. We understand you’re trying to get the point across that people shouldn’t judge you because you’re gay, but when you’re bringing it into your performances, people WILL judge you. I thought this was just realllllly poor judgement. I don’t like any PDA of this kind from a straight couple, gay couple, nobody. I just don’t think it’s a performance, it’s just a publicity stunt.
well said, girl.
