Adam Lambert's Gay Kiss Photos Get Bill O'Reilly Excited
Bill O'Reilly got all hot and bothered about Adam Lambert's gay kiss photos last night.
Asked O'Reilly: "On the internet, there are embarrassing pictures of Mr. Lambert. These pictures, that hint that he is gay, will they have an effect on this program which is a cultural phenomenon in America?"
Just pathetic.
Watch it, AFTER THE JUMP...

Bill-O is a sack of shit. I don't blame that woman who sued him to settle. That pig and his lawyers would have tried smear her in court. But on the other hand the tapes of the phone conversations must have been pretty bad.
I hate that prick. I wish he, Coulter, Rush, Hannity and Savage would slam into a van full of the Freddy Phelps and all burn to death.

O'Reilly is such a douche.

What about the photos is embarrassing Bill?
Posted by: BrinkleyBoy | Apr 7, 2009 12:25:52 PM
Yeah, I'm not sure why the photos are embarrassing...?

My favorite part: THEY CROPPED OUT THE ACTUAL KISSING! We only see the tops of their faces.

I would be more embarrassed to be a "subject matter expert" for Bill O'Reilly (or any cable entertainment-in-the-name-of-news outfit) than I would kissing another man on camera.
And since when is kissing embarrassing? I mean, if they were taken at, say, a Folsom Street Fair, and one set of puckered lips were on another region the body, they YES, that would be embarrassing... but lip on lip kissing?
Did he ever watch Henry Kissinger greet foreign dignitaries? And my oh my, about Bill's wet dream in command, W, holding hands with that Saudi leader while they walked!
This is nothing more than something that riled up this gas bag idiot.

Since when is the sexual orientation of a musical competition show newsworthy? I'm glad Mr. O'Reilly has nothing better to investigate than this.

He got so excited he ordered falafel for lunch.

There are not enough nasty words in the English language to express the hate I have for Bill O'Reilly!!!! The man is beyond contempt!! He and all his Fox News cronies should fall off the face of the earth and make the world a better place. You'd have to be in a coma not to know Adam Lambert is gay and WHO THE F**K GIVES A SH*T!!! why that would be a major story on television god knows.

Oh how shocking! Who would have guessed he was gay from the first second they saw him?
And it's so embarrassing to have pictures on the internet of you kissing someone!!
Yawn.
Posted by: paul c | Apr 7, 2009 12:38:49 PM
Yea they cropped the photos! A gay kiss is considered practically porn at Fox!!
Can anyone guess why O'Reilly is even discussing this on his show? I mean there is nothing even remotely important about this, and O'Reilly even feigns ignorance about the show's subject matter ("...or whatever it is they do on that show"). Yea the show is so trivial you don't even know what its about (bullshit), and yet you are having an entire discussion about one of its contestants JUST BECAUSE THE GUY MIGHT BE GAY.
And OMG the fag might actually win. We have to talk about this.
He's trying to sabotage any potential success Lambert has. He is informing his audience, many of which probably tune into American Idol, that ADAM LAMBERT IS GAY, EW LOOK AT THESE PRACTICALLY PORNOGRAPHIC GAY PHOTOS. REMEMBER HE'S GAY, THATS MAKEUP, DID I MENTION HE'S GAY??
*mumbles*
... and of course it shouldn't matter, this is solely about talent, but...
GAY PHOTOS, HE'S GAY, PEOPLE VOTE FOR THE WINNER, MEN KISSING, SO BAD WE CAN'T EVEN SHOW IT, GAY GAY GAY.
Its a wink wink, nudge nudge to his shitty viewers to take into account Lambert's sexuality and spread the word to all their friends. ADAMS A FAG AND SHOULD LOSE BECAUSE LOOK AT THESE NASTY CROPPED PHOTOS.

"Can illegal aliens vote in this?"
(insert eye roll here)

"Will they have an effect on American Idol?"
No, Mr. O'Reilly, they won't. And these photos have been around for a month now. Everyone who cares has already seen them. Except for you.
Go away now.

Every Adam fan needs to vote for him tonight just in case Bill O outing him to a conservative audience has a negative affect on him.
Posted by: Josh | Apr 7, 2009 12:49:28 PM
I am surprised Bill O or one of his guests didn't mention Danny (The Pandering) Gokey as a hint for who the "offended" wingnuts need to vote for tonight.
Gokey is hokey. :-)

I saw these photos when they are still in the audition phase.I wish they would actually ask Adam about it because I think he might be the first contestant to say, hell yes, im gay, while still on the show.
Posted by: kitkats99 | Apr 7, 2009 1:07:12 PM
When he realizes that he's out voted, even by his bottle blond co-horts, he resorts to "Can illegal immigrants vote on this?" WTF?? Bill just can't get it right! He has been, and will continue to be, on the wrong side of issues. I don't hate him, he's a great mouthpiece for our peeps! The more he speaks the more people recognize what a bigot he is. I feel sorry for him.
Posted by: Wayne | Apr 7, 2009 1:21:29 PM
Fuck Bill O'Reilly and his homophobic attack on Adam. Adam is probably the best contestant EVER on American Idol.
Posted by: Bobby | Apr 7, 2009 1:23:50 PM
The most offensive thing about the report was that Fox felt it had to hide the lip-lock from their audience.
Posted by: JimSur | Apr 7, 2009 1:26:22 PM
BITCH has no place talking about what appears gay. fucking faggot's wrists met gravity years ago...
Posted by: ian | Apr 7, 2009 1:37:27 PM
The photos are embarrassing because they give BillO a chubby!
Posted by: MikeinSanJose | Apr 7, 2009 1:38:07 PM
wait...bill o'reilly is making an obvious statement that openly gay people in pop music tend to have not as successful careers...unless you're george michael...
but he's also saying he should win if he has the best voice.
he has the best voice.
the problem is if he doesn't win IT IS because there are assholes like bill o'reilly making that judgment call about adam's sexuality when voting. Or Allison Iraheta pulls another "Alone" performance...just awesome...
Posted by: ian | Apr 7, 2009 1:43:19 PM
I think the issue for Bill is that Idol is a Fox show and may be cutting into his ratings.
Posted by: anon | Apr 7, 2009 1:53:33 PM
Oh, puhleez. The only time I hear about Bill O'Reilly is when he's either on the Daily Show (for which one time I believe he claimed he wasn't homophobic) or he's making sophmoric statements like this and everyone gets in a dither. Really, who actually listens to him except marginalized trailer trash?
Posted by: woodroad34 | Apr 7, 2009 1:57:26 PM
What a crock of BS! He is kissing his BF! BO is just a homophobic cretin! and yes AMERICA votes so BO is trying to bomb this voting process -
