Adam Lambert’s AMA Performance Draws “Moderate” Complaints
November 24th, 2009
The ABC television network announced that they received more than 1,500 complaint calls regarding Adam Lambert’s performance at the American Music Awards on Sunday night (November 22).
The former American Idol runner-up has drawn criticism due to the sexual nature of the performance, which included thrusting in the face of one of his dancers, passionately kissing a male member of his band and flicking the middle finger.
Our readers have been quite vocal in their review of the performance, calling it “disgusting” and “a joke,” while another said Lambert committed “career suicide.”
The tv network said the level of complaints received following the awards show was “moderate.”

Not the way to kick off a National career performance when this was ABC not Cable TV and all knew kids would be watching. As an adult, it was not necessary and VERY trashy..immature and simply wrong to do all three acts.
Aside from that, it showed complete disreguard for an audience and shamed the show. The man obviously is an awesome singer thus needed none of that…
It wasn't over the top, it was much worse…..damanging for sure,,,will result in many to jump poff the 'Glambert' ride..

Nonsense. They'll eat it up. And frankly anyone who had a problem with it needs to get over it; most all of the other performances were just as ribald, if not moreso…it's just that they were female or heterosexual. Looks like some people need to get with the times. This will secure his career success for a very, very long time because, well, homophobia just isn't trendy anymore, and guys being suggestive to each other is the new black.
