Then what the heck is this person talking about?

Further, who the heck is “Lambert?” I have never heard of this person before. But then I live in Panama.

Thank you.

In November, Adam Lambert performed "For Your Entertainment" at the American Music Awards of 2009. The performance showed Lambert kissing a male keyboardist, grinding a dancer's head against his pelvis, and grabbing the crotch of another. Lambert told Rolling Stone magazine, "Female performers have been doing this for years — pushing the envelope about sexuality — and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out. We're in 2009 — it's time to take risks, be a little more brave, time to open people's eyes and if it offends them, then maybe I'm not for them. My goal was not to piss people off, it was to promote freedom of expression and artistic freedom."[43] In response to his performance, the Parents Television Council, a conservative decency campaigning group,[44] urged viewers to complain to the FCC.[45] The performance, at the end of the show, was broadcast "outside the FCC's usual 6am-10pm time frame prohibiting the broadcast of indecent material".[46] ABC received about 1,500 telephoned complaints and announced he would not perform on Good Morning America on November 25th as planned.[47][48] CBS subsequently invited Lambert to perform instead on The Early Show, on the same date in New York City.[49]
