A day after giving cover to ABC for imposing a performance exile on Adam Lambert, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation has shifted its position and now says ABC should get the gay community’s scorn for its treatment of Lambert, saying “GLAAD remains steadfast in our assertion that Adam Lambert is being subjected to a double standard by ABC as an openly gay performer.” Huh?

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation says ABC’s decision to put Adam Lambert into performance exile is not because of homophobia but because he won’t follow directions, giving cover to the network from critics who say the ban from the Jimmy Kimmel Live and ABC’s New Years Rockin’ Eve show is due to Lambert’s homoerotic antics at the American Music Awards.

ABC still hasn’t forgiven Adam Lambert for his performance at the AMAs: Not content to have un-booked him from Good Morning America (delivering him neatly to the CBS Early Show for a nice ratings bump), they have now disinvited him from Jimmy Kimmel on Dec. 17th, as well as the network’s New Year’s Eve special. He must be made to pay.

After Adam Lambert‘s thrust-tastic, overtly sexual performance at Sunday night’s American Music Awards resulted in more than a thousand complaints, the first signs of a backlash are being seen.

TVNewser reports Lambert’s planned performance on ABC’s Good Morning America has been canceled.

There’s something different about Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert. She’s got it, he’ll grow into it. But either way, the “it” takes sex to a whole new level of performance art — instead of pushing the envelope, they’re wearing it.
