The man of the hour this week, for better or for worse, was Adam Lambert, whose undiscriminating use of both male and female private parts while he screamed “For Your Entertainment” at the AMAs got people talking. Not to mention clucking, finger-wagging and grandstanding.
1. Adam Lambert ran amok! The Parent Television Council’s favorite new punching bag went from mildly controversial American Idol runner-up to conservative lightning rod overnight following his any-crotch-goes performance at the 2009 American Music Awards. Other things happened, too, including a posthumous win for Michael Jackson, a Whitney Houston comeback, and another spate of Taylor Swiftian triumphs. Hell, Jennifer Lopez fell onstage! But at this rate, no one’s going to remember anything but Lambert’s closing number, which got him tsk-tsked on The View, dropped by Good Morning America and lambasted by people who still haven’t figured out how to get their poor, impressionable babies to bed by 10:45 p.m. on a school night. Lambert’s supporters have pointed out that Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera were selling malleable sexuality in prime-time—usually while wearing even less, and at an even younger age than the 27-year-old suit-favoring stunner—years ago. Lambert himself said it flat out: “I think it’s because I’m a gay male and people haven’t seen that before.
