Adam Lambert shocked the nation and offended many in his fan base by simulating oral sex, grabbing at a woman’s private area, and kissing a male dancer during his performance. Though there are many who feel this is a form of artistic expression, there is a large percentage of consumers who felt that their children in attendance or watching the AMA awards on television should not have been exposed to Adam’s brand of creativity.

 

The musical performance was censored by Dick Clark Productions before it aired on the West Coast and ABC is getting vast criticism and feedback from a number of parental and morality groups. The Parents Television Council released a statement asking that parents voice their outcry to ABC. (click here to read the PTC statement http://www.parentstv.org/PTC/news/release/2009/1123.asp)

Immediately following the performance, Idol News took to Twitter and tweeted whether or not people would still buy Adam’s CD after the performance. Here is a brief clip of the statement by the Parents Television Council.

Last night’s ‘American Music Awards’ broadcast was nothing short of tasteless and vulgar. Adam Lambert, the second-place finisher in last season’s ‘American Idol’ competition, chose to treat American families to simulated oral sex and other demeaning behavior. ABC and Dick Clark Productions had every reason to know what to expect, as Lambert himself proclaimed that his performance would be ‘very sexy’ and would include leather and chains. But the producers and the network chose to bury their heads in the sand.

The Parents Television Council is calling on its members in areas where the oral sex scene aired before 10 pm to contact the FCC to complain about last night’s show, which in no way fulfills ABC-affiliated stations’ public interest obligation for free use of the public broadcast airwaves. PTC is also asking its members to contact ABC stations and Dick Clark Productions directly to voice their concerns about the graphic nature of the show.

In addition, every corporate sponsor of the ‘American Music Awards’ can rest assured that they will hear from the Parents Television Council and its members. Advertisers spend billions of dollars on television every year to influence viewer behavior. Their behavior influence does not cease when the commercial break is over. Every advertiser will be held accountable for underwriting the AMA program’s content, including the simulated oral sex scene.

According to a poll conducted on U.S. Headlines Examiner and many comments on sites such as Rolling Stone, Adam Lambert lost a great deal of fans, and some who have stated that they would not pay even $3.99 for his new CD.

    Adam Lambert may have talent but he just lost half of his potential fans from his lewd performance. It so sad that entertainers like Adam can't think of more creative ways to get publicity and press than to do something so offensive to americans. I applaud ABC for refusing to air it and I am no longer going to watch any programming on NBC, who in my opinion has sunk to an all time low. You are NOT representing the values of most Americans and are an embarrassment to our country!

    Actually, Amazon.com frequently puts new releases on sale for $3.99 on the first day of their release as a special promotion, just as they did for Bon Jovi's release last week. Charisse Van Horn should know better than to imply Lambert's album was discounted because of his "controversial" AMAs appearance.
