Lambert Causes Stir
Adam Lambert, the recent American Idol runner-up, performed at the AMA Awards this weekend and drew a lot of complaints. He had mentioned that he wanted to push the envelope and he’s the kind of performer that can do so. But onstage, there was a lot of more provocative actions than one normally expects from a male singer. The biggest moment was when he kissed a keyboard player on the lips, for a long time and intensely, during the song. This is the part that people have been talking about for the last two days although there are arguably more edgy parts of the performance. There were comments to ABC from all sides of the issue, from anger to support and everywhere in between. Lambert isn’t one to hold back, so he’s not bothered by the critics at all.
