Adam Lambert AMA Performance to YouTube Video to CBS The Early Show: ABC Got Played
Date: November 25, 2009

United States of America
to be going away soon, although ABC might want it to, especially now that Adam Lambert's appearance on CBS' "The Early Show" seems to have gone over so well. But that can be considered ABC's fault, allowing their posturing to get in the way of business, when everyone knows that sex and controversy sells, and Adam Lambert's AMA performance Sunday night certainly had plenty of both. The popularity of the YouTube video and the buzz generated by Adam Lambert's shameless AMA performance should have given them a clue. Lesson learned: Acting in a reactionary manner sometimes has a way of coming back around and biting you.
After Adam Lambert's over-the-top, sexually explosive performance at the 2009 American Music Awards, the video went viral, the controversy became more heated, and ABC, which had booked Adam Lambert for Wednesday's "Good Morning America," decided to cancel that appearance. CBS, as opportunistic as ever, slipped in and offered Lambert a place on "The Early Show." Of course, Lambert seized the chance.
And he also seemed to stick it to ABC a little while giving them a face-saving out. He didn't apologize for his AMA performance but he did say that he "got carried away" and some of the performance was ad-libbed, "not rehearsed." But his first song on "The Early Show," which was done to vocal perfection (something he could have used a bit more of in the AMA performance), was "Whattaya Want From Me?", a plaintive cry for his fans to not give up on him, even though he's a "freak." He followed it up with "Music Again," which let the audience know that he's "sick of living for other people" and that he might be "kinda evil," but "you make me wanna listen to music again."
