AMA Buzz

Well, the American Music Awards were last night. There were some pretty memorable performances both good and bad.

The one that will stick out in my mind is Adam Lambert. Just how bad does a performance have to be that the producer who is cripple cuts part of it out? Although on retrospect, I wonder if that blank spot in the perfoance was a delayed reaction to Adam grinding another man's face in his crotch? Was Dick Clark the only person in the editor's booth, or was he the only one that was worried about the FAA fine? I think it pretty piss poor that the only person willing or able to cut profanity from being aired on Nationally syndicated television is a crippled old man.

The other performance that should not have been booked was Eminem, about three of fours word out of his mouth was censored. I remember thinking, "What was the point?"

Lady Gaga's performance was different, but the only questionable part was her wardrobe. The body suit with the lights was pretty cool, but the phallic symbol could have been left off. I know that it was supposed to be a symbol of the controversy centered around her hermaphroditism. But that was a little much.

Plus, the politics of the awards show was very blantant. Michael Jackson won all but one award he was up for. And Teedo, what the fuck? He was accepting those awards as if he were the one who earned them. Michael only won those awards because he died. If he were alive, he wouldn't have even been up for half the awards he won, let alone won.
