Previous American Idol’s contestants about Adam Lambert’s AMAs performance – by US Magazine

Season 5 contestant Kevin Covais

I honestly had no problem with Adam’s AMA performance. After watching him take risks on Idol, it was about what I expected. Despite being a bit risque, I don’t feel like it pushed the envelope that much further from what we normally see these days, especially on primetime television. I see no reason why he should be punished by ABC. I think the performance does more to help his cause than hurt it. He definitely has everyone’s attention.

Season 1′s Jim Verraros (a gay man)

“We need this, and we need him. We need to have him out there – he’s a gay pop singer from America. But I am torn — I just don’t know if I would have done that kind of performance for my first nationally televised show. I think had he done it at a more intimate club environment, it would have gone over a lot better.”

Season 3′s Diana DeGarmo

When you take a big risk like that, you can’t be surprised when there are repercussions for your actions. If anything, it should help out his career. Plus, with all of the buzz around the performance, his sales shouldn’t suffer whatsoever.

Season 3′s Jon Peter Lewis

All this nonsense about Adam Lambert’s whole project being art is bogus. That idea is absurd. It’s like calling Thomas Kinkade art. What a sham.
