It's been a week since Adam Lambert's controversial performance at the American Music Awards, and everyone is still talking about it. Today he sat down with Ellen to tell his side of the story.

I like Adam Lambert not just because of his brilliant talent at music, the way he talks, or how good-looking he is; the fundamental reason is he's being himself. He's turely who he is, and he is honest with his music and himself. It's really hard to please eveybody in this society, haters, stereotypes, and prejudice are eveywhere; however, for me, I'll always be his fan, standing here to listen to his voice and his music.

His actual personality is so different to his stage personality. And I never knew the kiss wasn't choreographed!

He has proven to me that he's one of the most outstanding singers/performers and the sweetest most genuine person so he can do whatever the hell he wants on stage and I wouldn't mind cos I know that's just a persona. He's level headed, sophisticated, witty, humble... he's got a lot of substance and heart. I love him.

Been reading comments. I've loved Adam from the first moment on Idol auditions. Was not bothered by the kiss at the AMAs at all. I was bothered by the grabbing of a dancer's head and holding into thrusting crotch bit ... and I'd be uncomfortable seeing a female do that on a family hour program. What he did was a male version of Gaga, upped a couple of notches. Great performance, wrong venue, especially as introduction to the general public, non-Idol watchers, as not the place to do a sadomasochistic performance. With the gifts he has of a truly incredible voice and beauty and charisma, I wish overt sexuality was not how he wants to brand himself, as I think he is so much more and cheapens himself. I went to the Idol tour show and it was same -- family show, lots of children, and he's using a mike between his legs a la masturbation. Were I a parent, I'd have been upset and I'd never take my kids to an Idol tour again. He goes on interview, displaying intelligence, manners, and sweet speech, so it's a mega-mismatch with the screaming, overt sexuality in performance. That mis-match increases the shock value. Very nice of Ellen to have him on. Shame on GMA for the cancel. JMHO.

Bottom line people...we make stars! I have both his CDs and urge the public to go out and buy them at stores, or online! I get so sick of politics invading music, whether at business or personal levels. Was what he did wrong, or so egregious enough to ruin his career? It looks like someone is trying hard to do just that. I thought Adam would be the next Freddie Mercury, and he should be! If anyone should be on the chopping block, it should be record executives who don't give us what we the public want, who attempt to knock brilliant singers off stage, and for those who murder careers/hopes!

I think him and Lady Gaga should collaberate on a song, or him and Ke$ha, or maybe all three. They both such unique ways of expressing their opionions and push the boundries of what artists are 'supposed to do.' I think his music is great and ppl should get a life, it's not like he was stipping naked on live tv or something (though some ppl prob wish he did).

I really love Adam Lambert, and I think that the problem with the kiss was rediculous. However I have to admit that I understood the uproar over the sexual content. The imitating of oral with that guy, the leashes and overt use of BDSM I think took the kiss which obviously would have had controversy because of homophobes and catapulted it into one mass of over the top sex and dark and BDSM which is a controversial community in and of itself. That being said I still love him and his music and think he's an amazing person^^ I'm so glad he was able to find a name for himself and life his artistic dream.
