Last night was a blast for Adam Lambert and his fans. Adam rocked the universe with his amazing vocals at the Gridlock New Year’s Eve celebration Hollywood to benefit the Red Cross. The top Glambert himself announced the event wouldn’t be televised via his Twitter page. That didn’t hinder his devoted fans from around the world to find other ways to watch the rising star perform via fan-made cellcasts and video streams on the internet.
Thousands of fans gathered together via live stream to watch their Bad Boy do his thing and rock the stage. The video streams weren’t of great quality but they were enough to satisfy hungry fans. That is after a let down by ABC when it announced several weeks ago it was pulling the popular American Idol runner up from its televised Dick Clark’s New Year’s Eve event.

Good video quality and better sound. Check out the above channel where you’ll find all 11 songs from the event (at the time of this posting).
Here’s a couple of fan photos from the event:
For those who have been hiding under a rock and because I’ve been bad and never posted about it on this blog, read on…
Adam Lambert performed the “should be a hit” single For Your Entertainment on ABC’s American Music Awards. During that show the singer got caught up in the moment and on impulse to add to the song’s lyrical nature decided to act out some the words. By doing he planted a male dancer’s face in his crotch, lip-locked his guitarist, popped the thong of a female dancer amongst other insinuated nasties.
Janet Jackson and Shakira both gestured similar antics in their performances, yet neither faced the wrath of the overblown network’s reactions against Lambert. Comparatively to the millions of viewers watching the program, only a handful officially complained, yet there were no reported complaints against the other performers. Lambert rightfully proclaimed it was because he’s an openly gay male – that’s just something you don’t see on TV. Yet female performers get away with all the time.
Several fans have vowed to boycott the network until it apologizes to Adam Lambert. With Adam’s single and album sales together approaching 800,000 world-wide since the official release in November, the number of people shunning ABC could be quite large. With the original complaints totaling a measly 1500, there’s really no comparison.
