“I admit I did get carried away, but I don’t see anything wrong with it,” Adam Lambert today told CBS’ “The Early Show” about his provocative performance on Sunday at the American Music Awards.
Lambert went on to say, “I do see how people got offended and that was not my intention. My intention was to interpret the lyrics of my song and have a good time with it.”
The performance, if you haven’t seen it, included Lambert kissing a male keyboard player, dragging a female dancer by her ankles, and having another dancer simulate oral sex on him as he sang his sexually charged song, “For Your Entertainment.”
After ABC received complaints about Lambert’s performance on the AMAs, “Good Morning America” canceled his scheduled appearance for today.
Well, “The Early Show,” in third place in the morning show wars, invited Lambert to the program, where he was interviewed and performed.
Lambert, who noted that at the AMAs there was a “Janet Jackson, crotch grab… I haven’t heard one peep about that,” added, “if it had been a female pop performer doing (his) moves… I don’t think there would be nearly as much of an outrage.” The reason for the uproar, he felt, is “because I’m a gay male.”
When asked this morning if he wanted to apologize, Lambert declined, and said his performance was at nearly 11 p.m., a time at which he didn’t believe children would be awake. “I’m not a baby sitter,” he said. “I’m a performer.”
And when questioned about what he’d do differently, if given the opportunity, Lambert admitted, “I would sing it a little bit better.”
Lambert didn’t perform “Four Your Entertainment” on “The Early Show.” Instead he sang “What Do You Want From Me” and “Music Again.”
The good-willed Lambert stated before his performance this morning, ”Parents, this is appropriate, I promise.”
