Adam Lambert Unapologetic About AMA Performance

Adam Lambert has stated that all of the controversy surrounding his over-the-top performance at the American Music Awards on Sunday is “a form of discrimination and a double standard”.

Adam Lambert AMA Kiss

After dragging a female dancer around the stage by the ankles and having a male dancer simulate oral sex on him, Lambert grabbed his (allegedly straight) keyboardist and shoved his tongue down his throat.

Lambert stated,

“Female performers have been doing this for years — pushing the envelope about sexuality — and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out. 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. My goal was not to piss people off, it was to promote freedom of expression and artistic freedom.”

Adam was scheduled to perform on Good Morning America tomorrow morning, but ABC canceled the appearance after receiving over 1,500 complaints about the AMA performance. ABC says that it doesn’t feel that Adam Lambert’s performance is appropriate for morning audiences.

Come on, ABC… we all want to watch a semi-talented Billy Idol wannabe shove his junk in some dude’s face while tongue raping another guy first thing in the morning! Seriously!

Don’t we?
