Smoking Gun releases Adam Lambert FCC complaint letters



After "American Idol" runner-up Adam Lambert kissed a male bandmate/simulated oral sex with another guy on ABC's "American Music Awards" broadcast, the Federal Communications Commission received more than 5000 complaints about the primetime homoeroticism.

On the following pages you'll find a sampling of the letters sent to the FCC by Americans who were outraged by Lambert's raunchy November 22 performance of his song "For Your Entertainment." The correspondence was released after TSG filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the FCC.

Many correspondents believed that Lambert, 26, ruined an evening they had been sharing with their children (most of whom who love Taylor Swift).  A viewer from Rainbow City, Alabama thought that Lambert, who is gay, was "shoving his homosexuality down our throats." An Ohio resident wrote of being glad their 94-year-old grandmother had gone to bed before Lambert's "disgusting" display. However, the viewer noted, the elderly relative did have to endure a Shakira performance during which the gyrating singer was seen "pushing her twat in my face."  Another writer wondered whether a kiss shared by two "fudge packers" fell below broadcast standards.

Along with the barrage of complaints, a handful of correspondents wrote to support Lambert or goof on the anger prompted by his performance. Lambert was a "dangerous gay male" who should have been "denied...his rights as a human being," one viewer wrote. "All of the impressionable children that were watching this at 11pm on a school night with their parents permission may be scarred forever because of Mr. Lambert's disregard for family values."

That kiss was so gross because it looked like he was swallowing that guys lips.
[info]zutxalors 8th-Jan-2010 07:32 pm (UTC)
And Taylor Swift can't sing.
[info]zulkey 8th-Jan-2010 07:32 pm (UTC)
ha my dad thinks he's "sick", but my husband pointed out that he wouldn't know who the f Adam Lambert if it wasn't for the show. So, mission accomplished: name recognition, old man angry.

Ugh, the "shoving homosexuality down our throats" argument is so tired.
[info]lovingrevenge 8th-Jan-2010 07:38 pm (UTC)
I kind of love it when homophobes use that phrase. Repressed, much?
[info]jewcifer 8th-Jan-2010 07:50 pm (UTC)
Between that and the twat-shoving I'd say there's a few very frustrated people.
[info]tomata 8th-Jan-2010 07:33 pm (UTC)
5,000 isn't even a significant amount of the population. i was over this drama before it even happened.
[info]applejane 8th-Jan-2010 07:35 pm (UTC)
No, but each letter equates to a certain % of the population.
[info]tin_o_biscuits 8th-Jan-2010 07:40 pm (UTC)
Every letter equals ten million people.
[info]tomata 8th-Jan-2010 08:08 pm (UTC)
oh.

who comes up with this stuff??
[info]lachica2000 8th-Jan-2010 09:06 pm (UTC)
But only 4 out of 100 dissatisfied customers/people will actually take the time to complain so every letter represents a whole lot of people.

SHAKIRA'S TWAT IS OFFENDED.

Again, why were their children up at 11pm? That's like taking your kid to a lingerie store and being upset when they find thongs :\

Because everything should always be appropriate for ~the chillldrun, no matter what time of night it is. Adults without children aren't important to God, remember?
[info]velvetunicorn 8th-Jan-2010 07:43 pm (UTC)
I'm so tired of people thinking that I find their kids cute when they're screaming on the bus or that i'm worried about what their children see/hear. I could give two shits. It's really making me hate kids.
[info]celtic_thistle 8th-Jan-2010 08:38 pm (UTC)
lol ikr. Fuck the children, I am so tired of this society's BAYBEEEE obsession. And I'm not even childfree. I just hate it.

I still think rigli = jughood
[info]estasoyyooo 8th-Jan-2010 07:39 pm (UTC)
I was thinking about that too but he was never really a conservative troll was he? Didn't he just stick to Scientology and other bizarre things?
[info]spankmypirate 8th-Jan-2010 08:09 pm (UTC)
lol, I actually think she's afa_mom from ontd_p in disguise. she's a Palin stan/conservative troll known for saying stupid shit.
[info]rigli 8th-Jan-2010 09:04 pm (UTC)
no, jughood is from Canada.
[info]tin_o_biscuits 8th-Jan-2010 07:41 pm (UTC)
OMG rigli. She needs to come back. The lulz, oh the lulz...
[info]rigli 8th-Jan-2010 09:03 pm (UTC)
hi
[info]emmacate 8th-Jan-2010 11:45 pm (UTC)
Adam did go overboard. Simulating oral sex on stage. I don't have a problem with the kiss. I don't want to want to see any simulated sex acts on an awards show whether it's gay or straight. I'm not the type of person who is going to write a letter to complain. It's not that big of a deal to me.
