Sunday's American Music Awards 2009 was definitely a news maker, but that doesn't mean it's making good news with certain critics.
Adam Lambert, the ex-American Idol runner up who shocked viewers by kissing his male guitarist on the AMAs, along with some "oral sex" moves, was said to be too "racy," so is that why Lambert was cancelled from performing on tomorrow's show of Good Morning America?
According to Us Magazine, Lambert's rep said, the 27-year-old was cancelled from Good Morning America "due to his performance and actions on stage."
Lambert who may have disappointed many viewers, received 1,500 complaints to ABC for his bit extreme performance. According to Associated Press, "ABC said more than 1,500 people complained, what it termed a "moderate" response."
Along with the complaints, president of The Parents Television Council, Timothy Winters, said about Lambert's viewers, "They're outraged. They just can't believe the nature of the content, the explicit nature, and how much graphic content there was."
Along with the "consequences" and complaints of the "racy" performance, ABC also said, "Given his controversial American Music Awards performance, we were concerned about airing a similar concert so early in the morning."
So what is Glambert going to do next after being cancelled from a scheduled performance on GMA? It has already been confirmed by his rep that he will be on tomorrow's morning show, The Early Show, on CBS.
Despite the controversial opinions of Lambert's "racy" performance, the singer has no apologies. The singer told Access Hollywood:
You know honestly, if I offended some people... it's apples and oranges. I'm not an artist that does things for every single person. believe in artistic freedom and expression, I believe in honoring the lyrics of a song, and those lyrics aren't really for everybody either."
