ABC Reconciles With Adam Lambert
'American Idol' runner-up
Adam Lambert landed in trouble for locking lips on ABC, with his controversial same-sex kiss on the recent AMA broadcast. This time he's smooching the network itself, as ABC plays a little kiss-and-make-up with Lambert following the singer's dismissal from multiple ABC appearances.
PEOPLE is reporting that Lambert will appear on 'The View' Thursday.
Lambert's provocative performance on the American Music Awards -
in which he thrust his crotch into a dancer's face, dragged two male dancers around on a leash and engaged in a makeout session with his male keyboardist - preceded the singer's dismissal from 'Good Morning America' and the New Year's Eve episode of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live.'
In a Twitter post last week, Lambert
told his fans "Yes, sadly friends, ABC has cancelled my appearances on Kimmel and NYE. :( don't blame them. It's the FCC heat." As
PopEater pointed out in an earlier post, the FCC does not regulate programming after 10 o'clock, meaning the 'Kimmel' performance would not have faced any scrutiny from the government regulatory office.
Lambert's visit to the ladies of 'The View' will be pre-taped - ABC can rest assured there will be no on-air shocks from the edgy performer. The appearance airs a day after he is honored by 'View' panelist
Barbara Walters on her '10 Most Fascinating People of 2009' special, also on ABC.

instead of worring about Adam, You should learn how to speak and write English.

God DOES NOT CHANGE. Homosexuality is a sin and the media only promotes it for ratings. Why promote trash. Homosexuality is the same as promiscuity, pedophiles, and prostitution. They defile the body, which belongs to Christ.

In that case, I hope I go to Hell. I don't want to be in Heaven if I'm surrounded by hateful bigots like you.

Adam Lambert is a performer. Adam Lambert is also a fine human being, a wonderful son and one helluva singer....He is not going away people. He is going to be a world super star. All you homophobic small minded people...if you dont like him--dont listen to his music and dont watch him. I am a grandmother and I love his amazing talent and voice.

the first time I saw this young man on American Idol I knew this kid was different. I watched him from day one and I was right. He is amazing and I almost feel like i discovered him. I also enjoyed the fact that the judges knew this kid had the whole package. Adam will go far in his career and he is so very talented. He does have a special gift. I know he is not Michael Jackson and not even close but I feel that he has somthing special to give the public and I am looking foward to see what beautiful music he will give us. I also think he is a fine young man a good son and brother. My whole family is loving Adam.

Best message people can send if they don't like this kind of stuff is to tune out - the ratings tell all. But people can't help watching - like the rubberneckers who have to slow down to look at a car crash; they can't help themselves. Just don't watch it and he'll go away - that simple folks!
Reply
yes, an good riddance to the phobes.
He is too wonderfully talented to go away, so just stay away, yourself, and both will be happy. Easy!
I never watch "The View" anymore, but I will when Adam is on it. I wonder, what with all the "haters" of the awards show, why is it everyone blames Adam and not the choreographers?? Just wondering.
Reply
That answer is easy. Adam said it was impromptu and came from "inside him". That makes him a toilet. You can't blame the choreographers because he said it wasn't rehearsed. Stop trying to justify the public groper of women's perenium. He is disgusting and as a woman, you should be offended.
I'm so OUT with Disney (ABC) let him SMUT on cable!

ADAM IS CUTE, HAS TALENT, BUT HE NEEDS TO LEAVE HIS QUEER BEHAVIOR IN HIS BEDROOM I DON'T FIND THAT ENTERTAINING AT ALL.

Thanks for all the hot photos- or where you just doing your typical agenda of trying to generate hatred towards Adam, yup, that would be your typical stance. Human sexuality no, hate mongering, yes- it's the Pop Eater way.

If anyone is trying to generate hatred of Adam, it must be ADAM. He invented this travesty and suckers like you back him up. He is repulsive and proud of being repulsive.
I agree about the agenda, it has been going on long before the music awards show.
Interesting that you posted the photos that caused the controversey- Bias and prejudice and generating hatred toward and individual - Pop Eater- is that better than a a sexual music performance? No!

And you are blaming the media for something Adam has defended multiple times? YOu are insane.
