Vince Vaughn on the ‘gay’ trailer non-controversy that so outraged Anderson Cooper and GLAAD:
“Let me add my voice of support to the people outraged by the bullying and persecution of people for their differences, whatever those differences may be. Comedy and joking about our differences breaks tension and brings us together. Drawing dividing lines over what we can and cannot joke about does exactly that; it divides us. Most importantly, where does it stop.”

Adam Lambert on the disgraceful situation in Malaysia that Anderson Cooper and GLAAD didn’t cause a similar uproar over:
Lambert said at a news conference ahead of the concert that the only thing he would omit from his show in the mainly Muslim Southeast Asian country was an onstage kiss with a fellow male performer.“My performance will still have a lot of vibes about it,” said Lambert, in a black jacket and pants and sporting his trademark black eyeliner.
“That’s not something I can really control. I’m just refraining from making one little kiss,” the former “American Idol” runner-up said when asked whether he was sending the wrong message by agreeing to suppress his sexuality in his show.
“There will be lots of leather and some sequins, and spikes and studs and fur, it’ll be exciting,” said Lambert.
Homosexual sex is a criminal offense in Malaysia, and the main Islamist opposition party in the country has described the show as promoting “gay culture.” Party members have pledged to proselytize concert goers.
Lambert’s glam-rock flamboyance might not represent your particular scene, but give him credit for standing up for who he is and openly defying these murdering, sexist, racist, homophobic theocrats.
Don’t be surprised if Cooper and GLAAD criticize Lambert for his lack of multi-cultural sensitivity. We wouldn’t want to offend murdering, sexist, racist, homophobic theocrats now, would we?
