Adam Lambert shocked America with his performance at the AMAs. Christian groups are demanding the FCC take serious action.
Sunday’s annual American Music Awards was thrown into a panic with their headlining final performance. Adam Lambert performed his new single with overtly sexual overtones. Unfortunately for Adam and for America, the overtones were homosexual. The public is now in a panic.
Since Sunday ABC has been flooded with complaints from concerned parents and church groups. Over 162,000 calls, emails and letters have been sent to the studio in less than a week. All of them complaining about the inappropriate sexual content of the performance.
Lambert himself insists that his performance was no more sexually provocative than any other number of shows. ABC tried to rationalize the incident in a statement saying “We have aired thousands of hours of people kissing in the past.” However, angry protesters across the country have responded by saying “But this was two men! It’s totally different!”
Lambert has been burned in effigy by conservative church groups all week long. At evening services homemade likenesses of the singer have been set on fire while preachers give sermons about morality and congregants sing hymns. Other, more moderate, congregations have settled for a Lambert pinata, filled with glitter and eye-liner.
Dozens of church groups have banded together to petition the Federal Communications Commission. They have created a list of demands for ABC and the producers of the show.
1. ABC should apologize for airing such scandalous content.
2. Adam Lambert should personally apologize for the incident, and for being gay.
3. ABC should air a special episode of Dr. Phil to help people cope with the psychological trauma of seeing homo-erotic content.
4. Monday Night Football be given 15 extra minutes next week.
5. Lambert is allowed to be on TV again, provided he “butch it up a little.”
If they give in to this political pressure, the FCC has the right to force steep fines on the American Broadcasting Company. There is no word yet on whether ABC will give in to any of the demands.
well its okay to kiss the same sex like omg uugghh
IT DOES NOT BOTHER ME ONE BIT. I DID NOT SEE THE AWARDS I MISSED HIS POFORMANCE. THATS BE SIDE THE POINT. I AGREE YES IT WAS WRONG. IT ALREADY HAPPEND. FORGET ABOUT IT THEIR IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO. LET THE BIG SHOTS TAKE CARE OF IT. I LIKE ADAM LAMBERT NOT FOR WHAT HE DID. I JUST LIKE HIS VOICE. THATS WHAT MAKES ME A FAN OF SINGERS IF I LIKE THEIR VOICE I AM A FAN.
WELL THATS IT EVERY BODY FORGET ABOUT IT. IT'S OLD NEWS AS FAR AS IM CANCERND.
ITS ALMOST CHRISTMAS WORRY ABOUT THAT.
oh no, the world is going to end now!
bible thumpers, er i man christians have bigger things to worry about than two men kissing, like their immortal soul…
The Christian Religion is a parody on the worship of the sun, in which they put a man called Christ in place of the sun, and paid him the adoration originally paid to the sun.
I am very devout to my faith as a Christian. I just think that we need to be tolerant and not Bible-bash people. Yeah, you're gonna get Bible-bashers when it comes to things like this, but not all Christians are gonna say, "There's no hope for you."
Nathan, it isn't a parody of the worship of the sun. Where do YOU live? New Zealand? The country that has been claimed the most beautiful in the world with yet the highest suicide rate plus Athiest count?
I think Adam is a leader for himself. No one gave Daniel Radcliffe bad props when he was in 'Equus', running about stage in his natural state. You're going to have the media shove their noses into everything. Let them make the opinions known. Cutting people down never really solved anything. All you get is short people.
Anyone else notice that this is a gossip site?
Most news is gossip anymore…
I think those churchers shood mine their own business if they dont like what he did than they should forget about plus the kiss was hot
just remember that he is famous so everyone feels like they have the right to critique every single thing he does it is not okay to make him apologize for his sexuality though that is actually rediculous that that is even considered. What's even with the whole monday night football deal? Any way the bottom line is that no one should be punished for the way that they are!
so what if he's gay!!!!!!!!! everybody should just shut the #### up!
omg so what if he's gay! he's not ganna change for any body
omg so what if he's gay is there a problem with that
It doesn't matter worry about yourself and if you're worrying then you really have no life
This is America isn't it – the land of hypocrisy and greed. This has nothing to do with religion, it's power and oppression, something that Christianity has shown to be very adept at using over the centuries to control the populace.
it wasnt bad im only 11 and saw it and it was no worse than than stupid gaga person
