The incident was odd to say the least.

IS LOVING ADAM LAMBERT A HATE CRIME?

Don’t you just love Adam?

After all, who lately has made such an adieu about cuddle this and kissing that? A pinch here, a fondle there.

Now that America is under hate crime watch, is loving Adam Lambert a hate crime? I was pondering that this evening when reading all about ABC zapping him for their “Good Morning America” bit.

That's why there's so much diversity in music.
I've seen them perform, ROCK! Seriously, who can not dance to their music? Love them!

Adam Lambert: I once weighed 250 pounds.

(CNN) -- Adam Lambert says his recent outrageous behavior is due to finally gaining some much-needed self-esteem after slimming down from 250 pounds.

The former "American Idol" finalist explained some of his onstage antics at the American Music Awards by telling a radio show last week that he continues to overcome image issues from his youth.

The singer does believe he could have made a better first impression to follow up his successful run on "American Idol" than he did with the much-maligned risqué dance sequence he did on the AMAs.

IMO he gives straight people MORE of a reason to call us everything from perverts to f*gs and a few other choice words. There is no sense in performing on NATIONAL TV in that manner. The same also goes for straight performers as well.
Call me old fashion, but if I wanna see 2 men kissing, 2 women kissing, or even a man and a woman kissing or doing any other LUDE act, I'll watch porn.
Thank you and as a very straight married women who does have a lot of gay friends men and women alike. I agree with you. There is a double standard because if it were girl on girl, probably no one would have a problem with this. So many straights all over there videos, doing everything and them some, but on NATIONAL TV i feel that it was done in poor taste. And BELIEVE me i happen to be one who really likes Adam, love his singing and entertaining. But things are much better left undone. What is he trying to prove, he has already come out, and everyone knew before he came out that he was, I give him credit, for not trying to hide who he is, and his whole being and essence of a gay man. But come on now, there is a time and place for everything.
