After Adam Lambert showed off his gayness at the AMAs the other night, he has drawn both praise and criticism. I'm not an expert, but I'm going to guess gay people loved it and Mississippi hated it. But either way, everyone's talking about it. According to Reuters:
"On a night when some of the biggest names in music performed -- Lady GaGa, Jennifer Lopez, Jay-Z -- the only person anyone is talking about is Adam Lambert," said Entertainment Weekly music reporter Michael Slezak.
"But for me, the real risk is that in his first appearance to the world, Adam runs the risk of being dismissed as a one note, shock-tactic artist, as opposed to being known for the music," Slezak told Reuters.
More than 14 million people watched the gay, glam rocker close the live AMA telecast on Sunday with a performance that included dancers in bondage, Lambert kissing a male keyboard player, and pushing the head of a male dancer into his crotch.

In case you haven't noticed, the key to success in the entertainment world is to be controversial or release a sex tape. Or maybe a controversial sex tape, that would be instant success. I should turn this blog into one about how babies are actually demons sent from hell to destroy us all. Maybe then it would be shocking enough for someone other than my mom to read it.
