"American Idol" runner-up Adam Lambert sparked a lot of chatter
after his provocative performance of "For Your Entertainment" at
the American Music Awards on Sunday. The singer, who promised
MTV News before the show that his AMA debut would be "sexy," hit
the stage with a routine that featured a group of dancers,
leashes, polls and an impromptu kiss with a male keyboard player.
We headed to New York's Times Square on Monday (November 23) to
find out what fans thought of the edgy performance.
Lindsay, 16, a longtime Lambert fan, said she enjoyed the AMA
routine. "I just liked the dancers and everything," she said. "I
thought it was really good."
Jaquita, 18, applauded the use of props. "I really liked all the
chains," she said.
But they were both in the minority, as nearly 78 percent of the
fans we polled said they weren't feeling the performance.
Kaley, 16, thought the performance was surprising -- but not
necessarily in a good way. "It was kind of really dirty and
sexual, I would say," she said.
Meanwhile, Malia, 16, thought the leashes and some of the more
controversial choreography were unnecessary: "His fans are going
to be like, 'What are you doing?' "
Lambert himself weighed in to Rolling Stone after the show,
saying: "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."
Choke on an AIDS infected cock, Adam.

I only saw short clips and the silly, (ever made-to-sell), 'Access
Hollywood' commentary. My view, he should establish his career before
worrying about forwarding some agenda /'changing the world'/ .
He is a good singer. But he might quickly return to the ranks of the
many talented who slave in shadows. Does he really prefer the shades
of notoriety? Just sing, boy. Give the people what they want. Change
comes slow. There are thousands of stages on which, every night, strip
tease 'artists', etc, do things to tantalize a crowd. You sell your
talent cheap... it deserves better.
Nice comment. I hope the good people around him share that knowledge.
That one of the pitfalls of instant success as opposed to the long
struggle.
He has the right to do what he wants (not saying you're saying
otherwise), but I do hope it's not perjudicial to him.
Tell us how you really feel. You must be thick as a post to think
that children are in danger from gay people. Pedophiles are not the
same as gays.
N.
Adam just jumped the shark trying to be edgy.
Instead he sang badly and acted worse. He knew
what he was going to do and it made him so nervous
he didn't have control of his voice.
