Adam's Acceptance Speech At The LA Equality Awards Defined and Made These Awards Spectacular!!

I think the moment Adam decided to speak out in Rolling Stone and then the AMA Awards he set the path to where he is now and he acknowledged that last night. he lived for years in an area of LA that was so accepting of diversity and than with his fame he found judgments based not only on him as a performer, being on AI, but the added judgment of him being gay. I think he was taken back that the focus always seemed to lead with or incorporate that he is gay. Adam has gone through a lot in the past couple of years and has come to a good place in accepting that even though he wanted this to be all about his music that he can affect so many young people by being out there and proud of who he is. They now have someone they can look to and know it will get better.

I love all the videos and photos from last night, but what really made this night was Adam's acceptance speech. Adam is so articulate and was so honest, genuine and brave in what he said. He turned the insults we have seen countless of times on websites throughout cyberspace into a badge of honor. If Adam, is a Weird Fu*king F*g, as he declared himself, then I am a Weird Fu*king F*g Fan, who admires and absolutely loves him with all my heart. Would so like to know what others thought of his speech!!!

I love all that you have so wisely noted about Adam's life prior to the spotlight being shown on him. He was living his life fitting neatly into a lifestyle that was for the most part accepted in a world of artists and free spirits. Outside that world were the naysayers, the people who felt threatened by the possibility of their worlds not remaining in a "safe" place. Along comes an artist like Adam who explodes on the scene with his unapologetic...This is Me Attitude.......And so The fear begins. It's OK for Elton John, Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Ricky Martin, Liberace, Rock Hudson on  and on ...because you know what...no one was sure, Straight or Gay or Bisexual .....people wanted to keep it that way... Not Sure.... Don't ask Don't Tell.....

BUT THEN !!!!!!

ADAM LAMBERT appeared with no apologies of who he was or is! His speech was indeed a Badge of Honor Barbls.....he said  "Yeah I'm that Weird F**king Fag that you called me.......my flight is about ready to leave, get on board, enjoy the flight with the rest of us or stay on the ground looking up at us..because we're leaving ya behind."

 

 

@dylangirl, You said this so beautifully.  Adam is so fierece it takes my breath away. I know he must have been scared after the AMA's, but when I saw him on David Letterman and the CBS Morning show right afterthat night and how he conducted himself from that point on, it showed who he is and what he was made of. He stole my heart with how he stood up and handled all the flack he got and still receives. He is only Adam to me and I am so proud to be his "Weird F**king Fag" Fan. Adam should be admired by all. He wears who he is, proudly. He was right when he said a while back that he does not have to stand on a soap box, he wanted to lead by example Well he has and is doing it beautifully!!!
