“Lady Gaga smashing wiskey bottles, Janet Jackson grabbing male dancers crotch, Eminem talking about how Slim Shady has 17 rapes under his belt. There were a lot of adult material on the AMA’s this year. Now the question is, why is Adam Lambert taking such attacks for his performance. You be the judge.
Seconds after blurring out Lambert’s kiss and calling out the ABC backlash, CBS showed Madonna’s infamous MTV lip lock with Britney Spears (and Christina Aguilera). No blurring.And with that, CBS essentially proved Lambert’s point. Why was his kiss censored by CBS? Because he’s a male? Because it was with a male? Because Madonna wasn’t involved? Or because Lambert is gay?
Whatever the reason, it’s indeed some sort of double-standard. Lambert’s was originally aired on nework TV. Madonna’s was originally seen on cable. Both were on CBS this morning.”
