Adam Lambert's Shocking AMA Performance

yeah.

[@Marshmellowshello]

They couldn't handle what he was about to do....

[@0StrayGhost0]

Underrated comment 😂

[@CatincaManaila]

2009 was so not ready for this guy

[@robrtarnold]

But it opened doors...❤💋

[@elisaleoncini3858]

Big deal Women being doing this for years but Men cant.?? Really people!! it was entertainment. Why YOU Never got carried away. You go Adam be the Superstar that You were born to be. Love me Some Adam💝💝💝😍😍😍

[@zipmegolden]

@@robrtarnold But it almost closed doors for him, and he said so himself. He was lucky, it didn't.

[@robrtarnold]

@@zipmegolden i know. I love his music too much for that....lol

[@MasiaDe]

@@elisaleoncini3858 It was 2009, people were still more homophobic back then. It was only 35 %

[@msrabbit143]

he fell, rolled, stood up just in time to sing "it's alright, you'll be fine" nice

[@plutomars2945]

how perfect

[@dollyy_92]

thats why he is best 💖

[@rosiegaskarth7602]

Okay, so Adam decides to have fun, and express his sexuality with a guy who doesn't care, and everyone hates him for it. Fuck society.

[@ARMY_for_10_years]

Normally when there is a performance that is live, every little bit is critiqued, the interesting thing about this one is people were so focused on that kiss (which so freaking what? Women do that crap all the time live. Hello? Madonna, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera?) that no one paid attention to the fact he actually fell during the performance. He rolled right on thru and kept going. That's the sign of a real performer.

[@itstotesmelirn1725]

it’s all right you’ll be fine lol

[@judithwilson1336]

It was a fair old bang when he fell, he's right, you can hear the clunk of the microphone, poor lad. Fine for Madonna and Britney to be tonguing each other, two women can snog each others faces off, but heaven forbid two blokes kiss. What a load of fuss and bother over nothing. The President can brag about grabbing womens bits, that's fine......triple standard America.

[@tinamoorehead2601]

So freaking what? The what is that he is straight with a gf and did not sign up to be kissed by a dude on international programming. EVEN STRAIGHT WHITE GUYS HAVE RIGHTS.

[@WrentheWrockstar]

I am still just AMAZED. That he fell. And instead if hurting himself and messing up, he tucked, rolled, ended up on the other side and kept singing. Didn't miss a beat. Bet it hurt afterwards, though.

[@anniejohnson3225]

Felix Cooke I know! he's a Glamninja!

[@beninua]

Felix Cooke When did he fall?? If you are referring to the part at 1:55 it is extremely obvious that is coreographed and rehearsed down to the finest detail, and you can see how the dancer he's with just before his "fall" simulates throwing him onto the next platform and Adam Lambert makes a perfect roll ending precisely underneath the female dancer with whom he does the next routine. This is obviously part of the show. In fact it even fits the lyrics about "getting swept off your feet" ... ;-) But it may of course be a completely different fall you are referring to that I just missed? ... Where do you think he fell?

[@anniejohnson3225]

Beninu Andersen​ ok... when he trips and rolls on that platform its not choreographed. He admits that in a recent interview this year when he plays most awkward. He tucked and rolled when he fell and it looked like he was a glamninja. Watch the interview then come back.

[@katyawesome4354]

Beninu Andersen Adam Lambert Plays The Most Awkward Game, Fresh 1…: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGmxpGd5abd6a6M

[@WrentheWrockstar]

Yes, I'm talking about that moment Beninu--as Annie says, he's spoken about it, saying it was a fall, and watching it closely, you can see--he's moving to get up on that platform--but at the corner where it levels out his leg trips and he falls forward. He's got good enough reflexes to keep it going, and you can actually hear some clunking when the mic hits the metal--also, that platform is like metal grille, NOT fun to fall on. He talks about having the worst bruise there in the interview as well cx on his knee. I thought it was choreographed first time I saw it, but I watched it again and right before he rolls, you see him sort of dip, his torso flopping down as he trips. It's subtle though and he did a good job masking it.

[@plutomars2945]

Adam's explanation: “Literally, as I did it, I went, ’Oh god, what am I doing?’ ” he explained. “I was out of body. You know, the finger was to the people that have been criticizing me. The finger was to the people who doubt me. The finger was to the people that were about to censor me. The finger was not to fans or people who support me at all, by any means. “The finger was to Out magazine’s editor who wailed into me , people like that,” he continued. “It wasn’t premeditated; it just kind of happened. In the end … it was to prove freedom of expression and to prove I am in control of my situation. I am an artist and I’m here to express myself. My intention wasn’t to upset people.”

[@RocaBibaby]

If Madonna or Lady Gaga had put-on the EXACT same performance, it would have been called the best of the night without the controversy ...

[@Luciiffeerr]

+Roca Bibaby Beyonce spreads her legs like no other and everyone calls her a Queen haha...

[@kwhite749]

They had a 3way on stage and everyone thought it was awesome. Double standards smh

[@jcepri]

Madonna has done men on leashes so many times that it's a big yawn. But male on male? Shocking! lol I bet this was a turn on for many females in the audience.

[@moonlight2487]

Damn right. Seriously though, I come back to watch this performance because of Adam's pure talent and ability to keep going without caring what anyone else thinks. And he's brought up this point before that women have been doing this kind of thing for a LONG time. Anyway here's a comment so you can come back and watch his great performance again. 😀❤

[@pattyk9869]

the only shocking thing about this performance was how he hit those notes, hot dayum boy you got it. Aced it

[@MegaGood5]

'Everybody wants to talk about a freak, no one wants to dig that deep'. Sadly no one wants to go underneath and realize you are one hell of a gorgeous human being inside and out with so much talent.

[@moonlight2487]

Nice reference.

[@sharonbunn8460]

I think this is such old news and not Adam's best performance. Adam is so much more polished and comfortable in his skin now and he wasn't as experienced on live TV with the exception of Idol which was totally different. He said himself he wasn't happy with the vocal delivery, but the one good thing was an open discussion regarding the double standard in music. He did recover like a Ninja during his fall that he covered like a pro. Hope people see what he's doing now & not 6 years ago. He's matured and this performance doesn't represent his outstanding talent and who he is, a magnificent man & artist.

[@thefolkcatholicwitch]

1:14 *audience in shock* 3:38 *audience offended!* logic -_____- “…can you handled what I’m about to d-“ NO. apparently not lol

[@kaylat514]

Honestly people should of expected this from him. I mean the song is called "For your Entertainment"..... He still slayed

[@AlexaExtraordinaire]

So Madonna, Britney and Xtina can lock lips but Adam can't? It's rock n roll people, nothing shocking about it. Adam is a STAR in EVERY sense. I LOVE him!

[@davidpo5517]

Adam always seems to be ahead of the trends. He did this in what 2009, and here we are in 2015 with three books and one movie of 50 Shades of Grey.

[@dorotalipinska5696]

And in every film the sex looks like it's from porn films.

[@mads2174]

That smooth fall though.

[@carollilaelmirahogan6335]

Strider Adam is FIT & a theatre PRO

[@nas84payne]

My man played it off well 👌😀

[@meridesiree7940]

"I bet you thought I was soft and sweet. You thought an angel swept you off your feet." Haha everyones like YES.

[@epicllamagirl51]

Why is this shocking 😂 omg so relived didn't know what to expect! Love Adam so much. He is a great guy and an inspiration to many people. If he kissed a women would people have talked about this performance as much? Most of the comments in this video are so supportive and that's such a nice thing to see just shows how far society has come in a few years 😊

[@broadwaybaby2024]

For me I don't see what so shocking about his entire performance at all, it' freakin' genius. Adam Lambert is a one in million. Okay, fine, yes he is gay but that doesn't mean there is NO place for him in the singing business due to his sexuality. Being a professional artist like him is that his talent is the only thing that is most important about him, and that his sexual orientation has nothing to do with it. He's just being himself. If the media are still mad at him today all because of this beautiful performance then they should mind their own freakin' business. HE'S JUST BEING HIM!!!! And that's what I love most about him

[@tiffoism6177]

The only thing he should regret is his vocals and I'm glad that he feels that way. I love Adam Lambert! I bet he's an awesome club buddy!

[@SummerGirl6380]

I love how most of these comments are saying things like, "What's so shocking?" It just makes me really happy because I expected to see a whole bunch of closed-minded bigots saying things like, "OMG Put that away, gays are such terrible people, you shouldn't expose people to this crap." Instead, we have a lot of open-minded people who are just huge fans of Adam and support him through everything. I want to thank you guys for that. It's really nice to see how society's learning to love everyone equally, no matter who or what they are

[@familhagaudir8561]

What was shocking to me was that it looked like forcefully grabing and kissing someone and society sure dosen't need more banalisation of sexual violence today.

[@riamariasimonis8790]

I didnt saw any shocking at al . And I am 69. I do like His singing and performance.

[@MsKatzeyez]

I'm 64 and I love him! I loved this performance, it was sexy and the choreography was amazing. I don't think his little tumble spoiled it one bit.

[@deltarosetto6819]

I'm 67, lost count how many times I've watched Adam's Fever video from here in Indianapolis Indiana 2010. He kisses Tommy in that to. So what? No big deal to me.

[@cjd3187]

I absolutely love this performance. I was a bit surprised that it wasn’t censored or such considering the all too common mindset of some. Adam is such an amazing talent and seems so sweet and humble - but also very sensual and sensuous.

[@taurean420]

No one is talking about his EPIC vocals! the beginning and end killed me lol

[@hayleysroses]

The only offensive part of this is when Ryan Seacrest comes out at the end and suggests that Adam designed all of the costumes

[@19691966tmq]

Yea like he's gay so he must have say on the clothes. Ryan your gay.

[@utpye6554]

Yes, that is a FACT. I am so glad Seacrest is behind the scenes more. I guess he is still hosting American Idol, but I don't watch that.

[@19691966tmq]

I never watch Idol. Seacrest gets on my nerves. I actually discovered Adam when I read this really hot fan fiction about him and Joe Jonas. I looked him up and surprise he was gorgeous and could sing his face off.

[@utpye6554]

Yeah, he can sing his face off. The media likes to focus on the same old people. I have been getting back into buying music and it is amazing to see how people have such a loyal following. Their shows are sold out, like Adam Lambert's. You would think there were only 4 people in the music industry, if you listened to the media.

[@aprildannette9820]

why is that offensive Adam has great style sense

[@LJak07]

I love that people are still watching this. BRAVO!

[@ThuNguyen1993]

ha ha, i found it entertaining ;)... and Adam's one of the best singer in the world. So people come here bcs of his talent, i guess :)

[@kaylai7679]

2018 baby and still watching ❤

[@derikroque7308]

I love the fact he is not scared to do anything and he just loves expressing himself Thumbs up Adam ! :)

[@queerasfolkus2238]

best performance , best outfitt, best kiss ^^ , and the greatest voice ever !!! especially the screams and the high parts !!!

[@plutomars2945]

Even he said this was his worst LOL but other than this his voice and performances are flawless

[@closertoyou3603]

+Queer as Folk US And the smile after his falling.. Love his smiles like this. :)

[@kitten_purrrs73]

+Indra Bluma I didn't even notice his fall?? gotta watch again .. lol ...so I'd say he covered it up dam good cuz i notice everything hahaha

[@kitten_purrrs73]

+Indra Bluma me too ...he covered that like a pro...i didn't even notice til someone pointed it out lol

[@nomorebullshits8619]

Really? Best? Because he's Gay?

[@kelseycsi928]

Its funny how this was 5 years ago and people made a huge deal about it(which honestly wasnt that big of a deal) but if you watch award shows now, they are far worse and were back then. Im glad Adam stood up and didnt apologize cuz he did nothing wrong. It was blown out of proportion because Adam is openly gay which isnt right. Adam will be one of my favorite artist of all time. He is a true singer and performer.

[@anya-ji8bi]

THIS IS WHAT U CALL A ACTUAL PERFORMANCE 😍😍

[@SirenEhest]

To be honest, his voice are better now than it was before, and that voice gave him second place... I just love him so luch! Glambert for life

[@EDH-kp6xi]

he was brilliant on glee and I love his ghost town single, he is who he is and that's awesome

[@kaatremmel3167]

EDH 1970, I AGREE ☝️.

[@EDH-kp6xi]

thanks : )

[@LyriRay]

Adam is a gift on this earth. He's extremely talented, good hearted and not afraid to be himself. It's tragic he's not as appreciated as he should be in the music world. Adam is my role model, and it sickens me that this performance was regarded in the negative light it was viewed in. It's perfectly fine for two women to kiss on an awards show, but two guys kissing was unacceptable. I'm glad the world has changed since this performance, but the world is still lacking the equality not only for the LGBT community but for other races, religions, and gender. No matter who you are you deserve to be treated the way everyone else is treated.

[@pamworrall5141]

Nerves were probably playing a big part for this performance and maybe he felt he had a point to prove, who knows? Saying or doing something that's 'Shocking' always gets attention. BUT I think in the time between then and now, he has grown as an artist. And as for performing with Queen, he was amazing, live in Manchester, UK (21-01-15). Check out Save Me & Who Wants to Live Forever from that evening. Perhaps the opinions of the doubters may change.

[@tomspence1300]

He's come so far in the past couple of years, the high notes that he did just didn't sound 'there'. If you look at his Glam Nation tour version of this song, and just all the songs in general, he has definitely improved a whole load

[@AnushTheBlogger]

Hmmmmm... And what was so shockng about this performance??? Celebrities do far more open and frivolous things on stage and sing far worse!!! Adam is a true star. I'm glad we've got him after the American idol! Finally there appeared one single soinger to entertain and to amaze!

[@momomaurelle8786]

I think it's shocking since it's his "debut" performance outside of American Idol

[@alyg9690]

Your "entertainment" he made his back up dancers air suck his kuchi. 1:16 1:23

[@5yogurt]

Aly G Plus he fingers the dancer when he sits on that chair

[@Rachel_Nyx]

I agree people have done way worse.

[@19691966tmq]

5yogurt Lucky dancer.

[@palecurve]

OMG I AM SO...oh wait, not shocked at all. Honestly, as a musician I'm more shocked how badly his nerves affected the performance, knowing his background prior to this (not just Idol). Flat, pitchy, all over the place. You can see after he sits on the "throne" that Adam realizes this, as he kicks the song up to the level it should have been from the start. In the end, who cares? We have someone who can front Queen. Someone with the same flamboyant who gives a damn attitude Freddie had onstage and during most of his life. He may not be Mercury, but he and the members of a Queen can give us those songs again. Live. With the passion and care they deserve. That's all I care about.

[@maihothanh1881]

Oh. I know what's shocking here. His amazing voice. He did many things but he still sung so dam good. OMG. He makes me crazy 😍😘😗

[@exoskeleton1163]

Normal people finds this shocking, but us Glambert find it normal.. Who's with me?

[@stardom6055]

i'm with you

[@bigwow9375]

[@rebeccameyers7485]

yes

[@LyriRay]

I completely agree. This is adam.

[@nickieidrus2027]

I am with you and I love him. I dont care if he is gay or not. I would accept him for it.

[@PFCD]

Adam is a phenomenal singer and he has gotten so much better since this performance. I am so happy that this faux pas that was unacceptable at the time did not do him in. We would have missed out on one of the best singers to come along in the last 50 years.

[@dorotalipinska5696]

He would never give up.

[@joykagle6351]

You know, this is how I got introduced to Adam Lambert. I never heard of him til they made a big deal about this and once I heard him I became an instant fan. Never saw anything shocking but I loved his voice and this song.

[@Mspamdias]

Slay daddy!!! It was an amazing perform. He is a beautiful person, so humble and kind, love you Adam...OMG i wish i was Tommy btw, lol.

[@na_psia_lape]

I'm glad that his voice has changed ;p He was good but now he's perfect.

[@micahguillemette3344]

I'm surprised that what shocked people during this was the fact that he kissed a guy and not that he danced with people almost naked the entire time.

[@niksteriffic]

Love this performance. Never gets old...just better.

[@brianross3682]

Damn he knows how to hold a note

[@SDGlambert5045]

When I saw the performance they showed him "giving the middle finger" uncut during our West Coast broadcast but it was cut from the rest of the broadcast in the other parts of the country. So Sunday it will marking 6 years since this performance (despite the words "screaming" and "pleasure" had to be edited out during the song and "the kiss" was seen but it shouldn't have happened unlike in the rehearsal version) was shown and then the following day will be the 6th anniversary of the FYE album's release. Since after this, it was never performed again and replaced it with WWFM. Time flies when you're having fun. Every Glambert is still singing this song since I first learned but didn't get some of the words to it right even if my company's next talent show comes up again, I'll have to redo it along with IIHY (almost at the end away from finishing it up) and NCOE then finally add GT along to plan on four performances this time even if we're allowed to perform more than one but we're not.

[@ChronoXShadow]

What I find shocking is the difference between then and now. The performance wasn't that bad, though the message kind of was, but all in all not shocking. What's shocking is that I still can't believe it's the same guy because his songs seem to have evolved since. I love every new song he comes out with. We love you, Adam!

[@Spike1885]

so glad to see this again after so many many years.... still stunning. go adam go!

[@deborahtorres276]

Adam is awesome. Like he said, he's here for our entertainment! Thank you Adam for all the excitement!😃💜😃💜😃

[@slenderlof1879]

Knowing that Adam's roll at 1:58 is actually him tripping over and just rolling with it is honestly just the best 😂

[@elizabethtodd8378]

I had this show in the background. I knew of Adam from the American Idol final as I was not a fan of any Idol show, but thought he was amazing (I was too lazy to turn over the channel). This performance made me an instant fan. I was not offended at all by any of it. I thought it was hot, risqué, explosive and just blew me away. A guy kissing a guy should be seen as normal as hetro. He had this energy that I had not seen before in any of the music talent of that time. I love how he has grown in the six years and doesn't hide behind hair dye and make-up. I love the Adam we see now. But I will always love the Adam with the hair dye and make-up. But times change as do trends.

[@patriciaschoennagel8711]

J adore c est chaud génial ne regrette rien super le bisou

[@Axefoleyable]

change the title please, didn't see nothing shocking

[@OnionFishYuki]

If you're gonna be ofended by a performance containing sexual manner (in fact it was ONLY a kiss), then you should be ofended by all performances containing sexual images. So many people do it too. What's the difference between girl-boy's kiss and boy-boy's kiss? Kiss is kiss, and sexual orientations are all equal. There's noting to do with his sexual orientation. And Adam you rocks! I love the performance, you entertained me successfully. So proud of being a Glambert.

[@monstermom4358]

But when Madonna , Christina and Britney kissed (and they couldn't sing half as good as him) they weren't that shocked, but because he's a man, it's "omg"? Wtf? Hypocrites ! I think it was great performance and he's opening up doors for gay people, great! And I actually didn't think that kiss was so "in your head" like when the women did it! It was shuttle in my eyes! But who's laughing now? Adam, he's touring with Queen and many artist wish they had the same opportunities as he has, but they don't have he's vocal! He's awesome!

[@misukiylambertson2764]

This was 2009 when hillary was even against gay marriage. Thing's have changed in the last 9 years.

[@Scanned]

Lol at the idea that Christina couldn’t sing as well or better than Adam

[@robrtarnold]

Didnt they have to apologize for it....lol! I saw it and was like wow! Lol! Almost 10 years ago damn! After this was the ugly betty kiss then glee! ❤❤❤💋💋💋

[@jaketarner5682]

Dark Heel im a britney stan but i think this person was emphasizing that madonna and britney don’t have vocals anywhere near the level of adam lambert....and in the performance with britney and madonna, christina wasn’t singing to her full range she was singing in the same range as britney and madonna

[@focaaameow2416]

When Christina, Britney and Madonna kissed, everybody got shocked so much that it is something iconic in pop culture so don't say lies.

[@Atricea]

If Adam had not performed like this and made headlines afterwards... I would not have become curious about him and turned into a Glambert almost instantly. I never heard about him before (live in Denmark), but this performance reached Danish news. And I got curious, who IS this interesting guy? The rest is history... once he's in he owns your heart

[@Dactrin]

People forget he's human and was JUST starting his career - he's not the only artist to not have been perfect. I just went to see him on Jimmy Kimmel live and he was AMAZING and flawless. He really has come in to his own!

[@vickipotts5196]

Amen to this song and I love it so much

[@chezzasan]

Unknown to many who were appalled by the badass that he was on stage, the most surprising or interesting thing is he's completely the opposite in reality - one of the nicest most humble and gentle person around with the biggest heart! He is a testament of a person who is truly beautiful inside and out! What a gem...

[@susanfleming6872]

I just loved the performance,Adam, his band, the person he kissed, who we now know as Tommy Joe Ratliff, his bass guitarist.❤❤❤MissssssTommy soooo much, but still enjoy all of their videos. Adam's music was then and just constantly getting better, how that's possible I'm not sure but it is ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bailierohr364]

I love Adam. I didn't watch him when he was on Idol but I have seen most of his performances and they are just absolutely amazing. I agree with what a lot of people are saying, its not shocking its not something that you expect to see yes, but I think from the very beginning people could guess his sexuality so what's so surprising. He explains that maybe it was bad judgment but I'd like to disagree. the people who are hating him for this are the ones with the bad judgment. He is gay so what. what if Adam came up to you and judged you for being straight, he could do the same thing to those of us who are straight to the people who are dragging him down for being gay. The other thing that bothers me is that most people think that being gay is a choice but what they don't realize is that the people who are gay usually don't want to be gay they want to live normal lives just like you and me but they cant that's the way they were created and they cant change that because if they could they would. I think that people in this world should be able to be who they want no questions asked. A persons sexuality shouldn't matter, the thing that matters is that they are a good person, not what they look like, not what gender they are interested in, it matters that they are a good person and have a good heart. I hope that Adam reads this because the negative comments mean nothing the positive comments are what matter and the negative comments aren't going to do anything he needs fans that support him no matter what and that's what we have to realize, so if you don't support him fine but keep your opinions to yourself because nobody cares what you think.

[@christawalker8041]

When he said, I'm here for your entertainment, he really meant it

[@michigirl8231]

2009 that was the best performance. He is not afraid to express himself thats why he is loved. That cant keep him in a box. He is talent and creative. They were not ready for what he was about to do. He sure entertained them lol

[@risimihova6361]

nothing shocking...he is artist and make great show and people love him

[@saraherrera522]

The BEST AMA performance ever!!!

[@valeriebaca2828]

Absolutely loved it! Like the song says he was there for entertainment. It was just a song and a show. People who got offended by it take things way too serious. I've said it before I'll say it again, I LOVE this young man! He's an incredible artist and performer.

[@RR202734]

:( Why does it half to say "Shocking performance", what's so different about what he did that a million other artists haven't done for years now?????

[@saraherrera522]

I can't believe they made a big deal when they only got 1,500 complaints. That is nothing compared to the millions who watched the show

[@Deeonplanetearth]

I'm glad the reaction to this performance didn't hurt Adam. He's an amazing vocalist and performer. He is also a really polite and sweet person. ❤

[@VivianBurrola-qw7uo]

He fell & knew exactly how to roll with it. His immediate response demonstrates how this profession is PERFECT for him.❤

[@CupcakeBR]

I loved the ENTIRE performance. I don't care what anybody says. He is a true musician and not afraid to take risks like that.

[@sokissablex]

i dont see anything shocking

[@mahaalay4164]

same.

[@cintsscha5899]

Me neither. Maybe the costumes? But i find it weird people think a gay kiss is shocking.

[@moonlightlady6126]

I agree with others, I see nothing particularly shocking about this performance. Adam is an incredibly talented entity in all aspects. He is what they call in show business a triple threat because his talent can cover it all, and he has evolved into a total professional! Go Adam!

In a way it was the reaction to this kiss that lead Adam and Tommy to the many kissing during Glam Nation Tour, so technically we have all the nay sayers to thank for all those special Adommy moments. You try and tell Adam "no" or "that's wrong" and he's going to take it and make it epic.

I feel so proud watching this

[@gwen1762]

Adam crawled so lil nas could sprint 😂😌

[@kadburycream]

This will always be my favourite performance of anything ever.

[@stephsilne2858]

"I have a feeling he designed those costumes" that was offensive

[@YallStoleFromPagans]

Okay and when was the shocking part?

[@19691966tmq]

Oh he kissed a boy. Now the country will blow up. Big deal. Actually it was maybe the hottest thing ever.

[@YallStoleFromPagans]

Kel Bell I know right. But there is always a big dubble standard in the USA, just like Adam said. When women do it, it's hot and good, but when a man does is, it's suddenly a big deal, cause some people are kind of retarted and like to discriminate.

[@19691966tmq]

Glambert16 Maybe we should have more boys kissing boys on TV and less boys shooting boys.

[@YallStoleFromPagans]

Kel Bell Yes. But in my country (The Netherlands) it's not a big deal, so I'm happy about that. We be like: So? It's a boy kissing a boy or a girl kissing a girl. We've also got a soap where they've got a gay couple.

[@19691966tmq]

Glambert16 Us Americans are just conservative idiots sometimes. There's a gay couple on Glee and they have kissed during prime time. Adam was amazing on Glee by the way.

[@laprincipessaroma]

AMAZING.😍

[@paigebartsch3163]

I love Adam. Hes my idol and his performance is no big deal.

[@kissiafly]

Ok guys, i love adam and everything but we all know his vocals in this presentation were horrible and he looked weird there. The only part i liked was obviously the kiss. I know he can sing a lot more than this, im so fucking happy he had improved his live performances and i am proud of him today, singing with Queen, he is absolutely amazing

[@Hunter-nr7om]

That performance made 2009 a whole lot better and gayer and I’m living for it

[@mithanatsir3360]

He falls on stage, but he can handle it! Aww professional ♥

[@glamberkitten]

In today's world love is hard to find. If you have someone or something you love it is a precious gift. Love comes in many different forms, from all kinds of people and creatures - if you find it hold on to it as hard as you can, and don't waste it. WOW! Listen to me.....€{*.*}€..... I started to get sad from all the fighting! OK, where's my tissue box? Damn! Why can't I ever find it when I need it! PEACE!!!!!

[@bri3140]

Honestly in my opinion this is nothing compared to our generation rn 😬

[@RusetWolf]

Me: Oh my god I herd this was such a scandal!!! What happened?! *watches* Me: Wait what? That was it?.....I don't get it...Like I thought this was supposed to be huge....

[@leannajackson2721]

Thank you!! That was my reaction exactly! I mean, the people putting their faces in his crotch was a bit weird for me, but I see nothing wrong. Plus, this was right after Idol! He was under a lot if pressure!

[@kwhite749]

Yawnfest really by 2020 standards.

[@linksystothepast]

This was amazing. :) Saw this on tv and completely went all fan girl on it. AHHHHHHHHH! he's so amazing. I saw him live a couple years after and he has definitely improved a lot.

[@mylifemusicca2590]

What a dynamic, great voice!

[@jadepants1094]

not shocking, the theme of the song goes with the theme of the performance. Really listen to the lyrics instead of complaining about him grinding up on one or two people. "ew he kissed someone" You're lucky he didn't do more than that what with the outfits the dancers are wearing. the only problem I had with this performance was that his vocals were flat and pitchy in some areas.

[@celestecolon7984]

glambert right here🙌🎶🎧🎶❤😘

[@danyelabonisse8358]

Fabulous

[@oxmarlenaxo]

Damn his voice!! It's amazing
