CBS has offered up a lame excuse for blurring the infamous Adam Lambert AMA kiss.

A spokeswoman at CBS had this to say to Extra.com:

“We gave this some real thought,” the rep said. “The Madonna image is very familiar and has appeared countless times including many times on morning television. The Adam Lambert image is a subject of great current controversy, has not been nearly as widely disseminated, and for all we know, may still lead to legal consequences.”

Eh, how easy it is to blame it on the lawyers!  The true irony lies in the possibility that CBS lawyers are the one’s that crafted the lame excuse.

I guess the lesson we’re supposed to take home with us is that it’s OK for two of the biggest female Pop stars (Madonna and Britney) to kiss on TV, but not an openly gay male?!

Support Adam Lambert by buying his debut album, For Your Entertainment!

We here at Gay Vantage are daring enough to run the image without blurring! I wonder what our lawyers will think?  It’s a Sunday night and any self-respecting lawyer would be getting trashed right now in anticipation of all of the bullshit they will encounter this week.  We’ll probably be too hungover ourselves tomorrow to remember to ask.
