Barbara Walters creating a stir at the White House. She wants Adam on her show.
After his stage performance which included simulated sex acts and guy-on-guy kissing, the network reacted swiftly to the backlash that was thrown its way. Not only did ABC decide to cancel Adam’s scheduled appearance on Good Morning America the next day (with CBS snatching him up immediately for their Early Show), they’ve also gone on to cancel his appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live and Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve.
Clearly the network is afraid Adam will go wild in front of the cameras again and are reluctant to give him another chance. However, if Barbara Walters wants Adam Lambert on ABC then the network will comply because… well, it’s Barbara Walters after all!
This week Barbara is doing her annual “Ten Most Fascinating People of 2009″ special on Wednesday night where Adam will be one of the top ten. I’m curious to see why she includes him. I certainly consider his one of the most fascinating people of the year, but he’s one of my favorite Idol contestants ever so I’m biased. I’m just wondering what compelled her to put him on her list.
Following the special, Barbara will have Adam on morning talk show The View for an interview and a performance. Barbara is not one to shy away from the tough questions so it will be interesting to see what she asks him, especially since Adam isn’t exactly shy either and will likely have some good answers. I presume that he’ll be performing “Whataya Want From Me” which is less controversial than “For Your Entertainment”.
