HI ADAM- I hope you read these. I have to give my opinion on the AMA. I have loved you ever since "I'M NOT SKEERD" and was put COMPLETLY under your SPELL during ROF, and I LOVE YOU for your mind blowing talent and the person you have revealed to me. I could fill up the page tellling you why I think your amazing and why i would want you in my life. Just read my fan note.

I am PERPLEXED with your AMA performance. Everyone, including you agree it was a bad singing performance from you. It was the ONLY time you did not sing well. Too much running around and stage show drama, nerves.
I personally did NOT FEEL IT WAS SEXXY! I Love sexy and you are the SEXXIEST MAN ALIVE and that I have ever seen, but not during the AMA, I did not feel this vibe. Sexy is sensual CONNECTION, not angry groping. I felt total TENSION FROM YOU! I know you were filled with every emotion, but was there something else going on?? I can't begin to know what you have been going through the last year, with all the pressures of your instant FAME TO THE WORLD!! You became an instant STAR!! I know you didn't want to turn down amy opportunity that was offered. The pressure to perform LAST at the AMA, for the world to see your debut must have been horrendous. I am soo proud of you for pulling it off Adam!!
You have the supernatural gift of transmitting your spirit out of you to penetrate the audience with everything you do. Even in an interview, you have that gift of connection with us. I feel your powerful love you give us as you perform a song or open you heart honestly. You can not hide your feelings, it just shows.

You said you would never be a puppet, but it seems you may have been during this, while trying to convince everyone you are not. It seemed you were trying to prove a point to everyone and it just got messed up. I didn't feel this performance was from your heart!

Adam, you are the first Artist I have seen in my life that has broken through divisional barriers of race, gender, age, religion, class, sexual orientation to bring people together to celebrate your talent and not define ourselves this way. You have helped people not to judge and just see the human for who they are. Your fan base is WIDESPREAD and that is truely a phenomenon, not to put more pressure on you. But it is supernatural. You said you would not define yourself any way, but you did on AMA. That is where the contradiction comes in. It is perplexing to the viewer. The shock and awe we were waiting for, but this performance had more reading into it for sure and there was no connection. When you say you don't care if it offended anyone, it does divide again. One huge trait of yours we all fell in love with is your consideration. But you must also be true to yourself. I can only IMAGINE THE PRESSURE YOU ARE UNDER!! jeezzz!
The real fans will be back after they have time to regroup and REMEMBER ALL THE LOVE AND DEVOTION YOU GAVE TO US and that is why we LOVE YOU ADAM.
I LOVE YOU ADAM, for just being YOU! and will stay A TRUE FAN FOREVER!! XOXOXOXOXOX

'Bout an hour ago, bought new copy of "For Your Entertainment" C.D. off Glamazon, just to support the artist. Who knows--l might even enjoy the music.

"But it's all right now, I've learned my lesson well.
You see you, can't please everyone, so you've, got to please yourself."

-Lyric from "Garden Party" song, the late Ricky Nelson of Ozzie & Harriet TV series fame

i loved your performance on the AMA's ADAM, even if some people didn't. It wasn't even that provocative, there's a lot of other provocative stuff flowing around on tv and the internet then what you did,i mean come on.OK somethings might have been a little much for the little "kiddies", but small kids, like under 13 should have problem beem in bed before 10 o' clock, i mean Adam performed like at about 10:45 at the end, And the next morning_ Monday probably was a school day, i know the kids wasn't on THANKGIVING break, yet. Like ADAM said he's not "A BABYSITTER," some parents probably should have recorded the award show and future things, and watch it back to see what things there younger children can see and can't see. Instead of focusing Adam to apologize,"for what i ask".The male-on-male kiss, the face in private area, etc.(lol), because it wasn't what he rehearsaled, is a "sorry" really going to take the image out their heads. Millions of people seen it on the east, but you CENSORED it so millions more can't see it on the west, "what," "why," like some ones not going to put an unedited version in the internet, that people on the west can see. I mean ADAM has fan's everywhere, they want to see their IDOL and all he does. Speaking of idol I think some people liked the "ADAM LAMBERT" on IDOL, and are sticking to who he was on there, and not realizing America IDOL is over, and he's doing his own thing now, with his own style.He was just putting a picture to the lyrics, from "FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT".You seen Adam on tour,(working the stage) on covers of magazines, you know his style, WHY WOULDN'T YOU THINK HE WOULDN'T GO OUTSIDE THE BOX'S(LOL). It is a form of discrimination, and that's not right, females have been performing very provocatively for years. I really did like it, i thought IT WAS WILD AND FREE, A FORM OF ART. "SHOCK ROCK IS FUN".I was shocked_in a good way(lol). KEEP ROCKING adam.

Unfortunatly I was in the hospital and missed the live performance, my sister who is a huge lambert fan found the performance a little much for her tast, Iv watched the performance at least a dozen times on my computer, and I cant see why anyone would be offended by it. I thought it was awsom! keep on flamein on!

Adam makes the point that he is (1) fearless, (2) in the driver's seat, (3) not out to please everyone, (4) an artistic risk taker. He left far behind any lingering impression that he is under the control of American Idol or 19 Entertainment.

Adam says he was having fun, yet he did not look like he was having fun. He looked like he was swallowing bitter medicine. He plays the role of the Master of Ceremonies. It may have been liberating, but it felt rough and forced. The dancers gave the impression of Balanchine puppets. Frankly, I did not have fun watching the AMA performance.

To me, 1930s Berlin decor provides a fretful foreshadowing. I worry about the world as we know it in the light of peak oil, global warming, economic meltdown, lack of Constitutional values, the power and puppetry of money, the herd mentality, and the depth of corruption.

In contrast, the music video looked like heaps of fun. Those brows, those eyes. That rakish snake. The lush underground Garden of Eden. The Garden of Earthly Delights. A hint of Rousseau. The sly editing suggests that more goes on than meets the eye and makes you want to cycle back and rewatch clips. I hope they might show the Director's Cut as a warm-up to the audience when "For Your Entertainment" goes on tour.

In light of all these interviews, photo shoots, videos, recordings, and guest appearances, you must admit...Adam has an incredible work ethic bordering on sado-masochistic. Just hope he takes some time off, recharges, and does not burn himself out.

Wooooo! I didn't catch it the first time around on tv, only on here and on sites or clips on shows that made a big deal over the performance. Frankly, I thought it was sexy. Loved it. Adam is not for kids--- so go home you up-tight- role-model-wanna-see er's! Adam is awesome and I'd totally see him live if he were to be just as tantalizing and enthralling. I can understand with the vocals cause he was moving around a lot, keeping up with the timing, the lights were hot, he was probably a little nervous and what not but it's okay. I love you Adam!

Ok lol I mean't to say "Shouldn't have".

I was initially a bit shocked by the performance but loved it nonetheless. From seeing his pre-Idol shows (think Zodiac), what he did was not out of character. He is a very sexual person, and he embraces that. On Idol, that was not as apparent, but now he is able to do what he pleases. I understand people wanting him to tone it down to draw fans, but at the end of the day, he's the artist, and he has to do what makes him happy and satisfied as such. He may sacrifice some fans, but he never has seemed to be one to compromise who he is for others and their expectations. If the AMA showing isn't something you liked, then--as it's been said--maybe he's not for you. He is incredibly talented and versatile, and I hope that more than a few will take a sampling from the whole of his work and not just this performance before making up their minds. This is just one slice of the Adam Lambert pie, and it's a most excellent one.

Adam is a very talented singer, and THAT is why so many people love him. Why does he feel the need to be so disgusting on stage?? Is he trying to get MORE attention?? Personally I don't care if he is gay, that is his choice, not mine, but does he need to express it to this extent?? When Adam came on American Idol I thought, thank God, a talented singer, finally! He brought back that awesome classic rock sound that I love. But now, he has turned himself into a male version of Lady Gaga! I am absolutely disgusted in Adam. And sorry to say, but if he keeps this up, this could be the downfall of Adam Lambert.

This article is a def must read. It really sheds some light on Adam's New found role in the Music Business.... and how what he did at the AMA's is not really all that different than what was done before.... just new... and unexpected, which has pulled people out of their comfort zones. Yeah he pushed boundaries.... maybe the VMA's would have been a better outlet for that. However.... its done and people are talking. A change has begun!

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2009/11/adam-lambert-and-tele...

I have been drawn to Adam BECAUSE of his theatrics, and his performance did not disappoint on that front. However, I thought the acoustics were awful, and didn't do his voice justice. (I also thought some of the other performers sounded weak as well.) I was lucky enough to see him perform in Chicago on the Idol tour, and we all had happy dreams of sparkly, gyrating belt buckles for WEEKS afterward! He is an incredibly sensual performer, who is getting a heck of a lot of attention the day his CD comes out. I've heard Katy Perry say it was no accident that her first big single she released was "I kissed a girl"...I'd say Adam is just as smart. He's got everyone talking, blogging and DANCING!! Way to go Adam...I still love you, and for those of you who miss his "singing", listen to the ballads on the new CD and just bask in his fabulous vocals.

Adam it would be wise to surround yourself with people of integrity and your best interests at heart. Please don't get an entourage of "yes" men. If Kris Allen was not so busy, he would be great for your inner circle. He would tell you like it is and not like you want it to be. Study what has happened to stars of the past that had the wrong type of friends and crashed and burned. You are a uniquely amazing singer. Keep everything about the singing and the music. Hope I am not sounding like I am "entittled" , I know you don't like that . But, so many people care about you and don't want you to fail. It's in your hands, but we want your music and few people care about your private life.

Seriously has everyone forgotten the rest of the show. There was plenty of other "Inappropriate" proformances. Plus for those of you who are freaking out about the kids its the AMAs they shouldnt be watching them anyway!!!!!!!!!! And for those of you who are not getting his album your the ones missing out because it's wicked awesome!!!!!!

This also applies to incidents such as GMA cancelling Mr. Lambert's appearance:

Many so-called "moral" (AKA "appropriate") viewpoints I have encountered about Mr. Lambert fail to take into consideration that when "The King of Rock 'N' Roll" was about Mr. Lambert's age, many also viewed him with fear and loathing. In fact, television camera operators were barred from filming "Elvis the Pelvis" below his waist, what with all that hip gyration action he had going on. Thank goodness THE CHILDREN were protected! So it seems that, "Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it." -George Santayana

"I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist always has to be out of step with his time." -late actor Orson Welles

Man I was so disappointed. I was an avid Adam Lambert fan I couldn't wait for his next performance on idol. I couldn't even wait to see what his album was going to be even though he didn't win I considered him like Daughty he was so talented, but the way he performed at the AMA's was totally uncool. Yes, you can push the envelop on things but I think he went way over. Who cares that he is gay everyone knew it while he was idol, but you just don't do that on national television with young children watching. I was going to buy his album but I think not now.

LOVED the performance!! I really liked the fact that it did push the envelope a bit, and it was SUPER sexy!!! I thought is was really HOT, keep doing what you're doing and being yourself, don't worry about how "the world" wants you to act......Great job Adam!! =) XOXOXO
Keep doing what you're doing!

Dear Adam,
I may be an 'old Queen', but I say to those who critisize you about the AMA:

"F#%k 'em!!" Do not let other dictate your expression, and to thine own self be true!!!
When you forget who you are, you forget everything.
You go, boy!! :^)

I do wish you success and I'm not a hater (I think you've got great talent) but that particular performance was in bad taste. I have a 13 and a 15 y/o that are wise to the realities of the world. However, this does not mean I want them to see overtly sexual acts on stage. I'm sure other parents are offended and may have younger children who they wouldn't want to have seen that. Shame for not realizing what the demographics are of the audience. Madonna was wrong for what she did, Janet apparently "made a mistake" but it was wrong for her not to apologize immediately, Lady Gaga should have worn something a little less revealilng, and now you; you should rethink and apologize to those who you offended. It will do you a world of good. No reason to shock people in that forum, its offensive. Its like not allowing comedians to SWEAR on TV but they can do it in their paid live shows. Tone it down. Don't you want to be remembered fondly in life? All The Best to you Adam.

WOW!!! That was awesome. A little dirty, not exactly for kids, but I thought it was great. Because of that performance I am going to go and actually BUY that album. The performance was hot. Very sexy. And yes I would watch again. Oh and for you haters, I am a mother of two girls, and honestly I would let them see it. There was nothing wrong with it. IT WAS ACTING. Get over it.

I thought your performance was amazing, you're extremely talented and creative, never lose that, rise above all the negativity. Madonna has been pushing the envelope for years and look where shes at...good luck with everything dude

Sorry sweetie, I was horrified! The bondage stuff and aggression provoked thoughts of abusive relationships, something I've worked to change, and I didn't think it belonged on prime time. There were some other issues that made the performance less than perfect. However, you had a good band, and I think the song, For Your Entertainment, is actually a good song. It sounds awesome on your CD, which I love, and I'm so glad I bought it. Your songs sound like difficult ones, challenging to sing, especially while cavorting on stage. All deserve air time. Best wishes for Letterman and GMA! I WILL be watching on TV!

the whole awards show was sexual in nature sunday night, you were no different and didnt do anything wrong...i loved your performance and it was fun , just what you wanted it to be and i thought i was conservative! cheers and ill be buying your album.
