GLAMBERT: Adam Lambert’s Big Week continues! After his American Music Awards performance (which scandalized the virginal eyeballs of 14 million people who are much more used to being vocally slaughtered with hateful words than visually assaulted by the dangers of male-on-male sexuality), 1,500 entire people complained to ABC and Adam lost his spot on Good Morning America the next morning. (1,500: 14 million is approximately equal to the ratio of Ilene Chaiken defenders to supporters on an L Word recap, and you don’t see us censoring the Death of Dana).
This morning Adam redeemed himself this morning by Jesus at The Early Show, where not only did he provide an incredible vocal performance sans-beejers (and sans incredibly high-energy coreography for a dude who’s never claimed to be a dancer) but he brought his Mom! See, he has a Mom you guys and Elvis hair! Hawt! You know who else had a Mom? Jesus. He didn’t have a Dad though, ’cause lesbian moms make better parents. JUST KIDDING!
Also if you wanna see a preview of our own Robin Roemer’s photo session with Adam Lambert, those are right here for ya.
Adam performs “What Do You Want From Me” (What do I want? BJ!!!) — check out Mom at the end!
Here he explains that he’s a performer, not a babysitter, so you’ll need to find a new one for Friday night, I’d like to suggest Intern Nicole:
Just uh .. one little thing? CBS blurred out Adam’s gay kiss during their replay on The Early Show but displayed a still photo of Madonna and Britney’s smooch. Listen up guys, stop saying lesbian kisses are okay for TV but gay kisses aren’t, that’s not true and it’s misleading. ACCORDING TO AMERICA, LESBIAN KISSES AREN’T OKAY FOR TV EITHER. What’s okay are straight (or closeted) girls kissing each other.
SINGLE LADIES: “We feel for you, ROD—being one of Hollywood’s only openly gay celebrities can’t be easy. Ellen pulls all the fly hoes!” Complex Magazine, which has never been female-friendly, let alone gay-female-friendly, has picked 10 potential partners for Rosie O’Donnell to go out with next. Unfortunately, it’s still Complex Magazine, which means it’s really not very complex. In addition to making fun of Rosie’s weight and bashing some of the ladies for promiscuity (when that’s what their magaizne endorses for its male readers), they suggest four women who are defo not single — Kim Stolz, Leisha Hailey and Kristanna Loken, Amber Rose — and accuses Leisha Hailey of “not being able to shut up about that frickin’ yogurt” even though she hasn’t spoken a word on it since I think the 90’s? To their credit, they note that Loken & Rose are otherwise involved.
ANYONE BUT ME: Anyone But Me’s hot new celebrity video features Eric Stolz, offering 5 reasons to tune in this season. Need more convincing? Check out Autostraddle’s interview & photoshoot with Rachael Hip Flores and out actress Nicole Pacent and interview with writer Susan Miller.
NIP SLIP: Mediaite’s got a lengthy discussion of Gaga’s nipples during her performance on Leno. And you thought we were obsessed. (@mediaite)
Marion County’s only gay bookstore will close: Out Word Bound, Indianapolis’ only gay and lesbian bookstore, will close its doors after Dec. 25.
JUST DANCE: Katic Couric is a Badass – I think this is what they’re talking about when they tell you not to post facebook pictures that you don’t want your future employers to see. (@gawker)
A BISEXUAL: “Fergie Frangelico” sounds almost as good as “Tila Tequila” When asked about exploring her ‘lesbian side’, Fergie told OK! magazine: “I’ll put it this way, I’ve experimented definitely but I have never had a steady girlfriend.” (@mirror)
“1,500: 14 million is approximately equal to the ratio of Ilene Chaiken defenders to supporters on an L Word recap, and you don’t see us censoring the Death of Dana.”
so true and also, LOL.
This is exactly the same thing I was going to say. Seriously, word for word. Instead I’ll talk about something else: Adam DOES have Elvis hair!
I like how Adam’s CBS News video says “Straight Talk.” o_0
Fact checking is for suckers.
“Listen up guys, stop saying lesbian kisses are okay but gay kisses aren’t. LESBIAN KISSES AREN’T OKAY. What’s okay are straight (or closeted) girls kissing each other.” Word.
Are straight men really the target audience for EVERYTHING? Really?
i missed the best opportunity for a “really papi, really?” comment. I suck.
actually, I don’t think it’s related to straight men being the target audience. It’s just America’s squeamishness about actual gay sex in general. People don’t want to see what we do in the bedroom on a stage, because that makes them feel weird, and it makes them feel left out. They want to see lesbian sex as performance by straight women, or in more liberal broadcasts they can handle it between two lesbian/bi women who conform to traditional notions of “femininity.” But man-on-man sex is very subversive, as is female masculinity.
I kinda get your point about straight men. As in, straight guys think lesbianism is “hot” but also would like a chance to get with those girls. So it’s better if there are two straight women kissing for men’s pleasure. Most straight men want absolutely nothing to do with gay male sexuality, as I hear it is “contagious.” But I think Riese is right that it’s just general homophobia in this case.
hahah I clearly only skimmed this over earlier. . because I just noticed the babysitting comment. Thanks a bunch haha.
also I’ve heard several times so far that ABC gets more complaints about dancing with the stars on a regular basis than they did about Adam’s performance. so there is that.
i know, i honestly feel like the headlines should’ve been that only 1,500 complaints means America is actually ready for this jelly.
I like that take on it
Okay, the blurring out of the kiss pisses me the fuck off. The oral sex simulation? Sure. That was raunchy. But the kiss? They wouldn’t blur out a heterosexual kiss or even a kiss between two women. So umm where can I file MY complaint about THAT?

I totally sent my complaint.
meee toooo
