Simon Cowell and Ellen Degeneres talk Adam Lambert

DeGeneres: Simon, I guess this is as good a time as any to tell you – I’m gay.
Cowell: Are you serious? No one told me that. Let me tell you something: We are the least racist, homophobic show in the world. What we do have, thank God, is a sense of humor. I hate political correctness. I wouldn’t go into any show saying anything is off-limits. If we have to abide by a ton of rules, we might as well call it a day now.
EW: Is that cool with you, Ellen?
DeGeneres: Well, I don’t go by that rule, where there’s no political correctness at all. If we lived in a world where there was no such thing as racism or homophobia, then obviously there would be no off-limits. Unfortunately, there are people in this world that don’t like other people, and that was one of the issues that was brought up about Adam Lambert. So I’m sensitive to it just because I’ve experienced that kind of discrimination. At the same time, the stuff that Simon and Ryan do – none of that has ever been offensive to me. I’m more offended by people who make jokes about something sounding like an animal that’s been caught in a lawn mower or whatever. Because there are sick people out there that would go, “What’s that sound like?”

yes, ellen, you are right. why can't people accept one another irrelevant of their sexuality or weaknesses. the world is preoccupied of disowning gay people but they can tolerate violence and patronize silly stuff like octo mum and tiger wood's mistresses. i am not gay and i live by the BOOK but there is always an exception to the rule. adam has a great talent and i admire him for that.
Mostly the homophobic issues is the US. We have Puritanical roots and some people in this country are afraid of sexuality, especially male sexuality. Most of Europe and Asia or much less freaky which is why Adam is likely to do better internationally unfortunately.
MY BIRTHCOUNTRY IN ASIA LOVE ADAM LAMBERT- NO PREJUDICE AS ALOGN AS HE HAS A GOOD VOICE THATS COUNT.ELTON JOHN AND OTHER ARE GAY SINGER DOENST MATTER THE SINGERS ORIENTATION.
Go ASIA!!!! I wish American had open mind like the REST OF THE WORLD!!! Adam is going to be a SUPER STAR. BC the WORLD in general dosn't give a HOOT about SEXUAL ORIENTATION. Adam is HOT and extremly TALENTED. HE will do WONDERFUL thing to his CAREER and to the WORLD!!! I love him and FOREVER be a good fan to Adam. KEEP shaking your ASS. BB
If you're not perfect, probably shouldn't throw stones. People should never be defined by things like complexion, sexual preference, faith, etc. but by their character. Axe murderers, child molesters, rapists, cheats, thieves -- pretty low on my list.
LOve ELLEN and LOVE Adam even more!!!!! Did you get ONE more Adam's cd? PLEASE do so ASAP> He needs our help NOW! You can give it as a gift latter, but Adam will benefit from it NOW! The sooner he'll get GOLD record the BETTER it is for his career. So please make your coffee at home for 3 days and get ONE, JUST ONE CD. (or more if you want)
Some of the most famous people in history were homosexual, like Michaelangelo, Leonardo DaVinci, and Vincent VanGogh. You don't hear people calling them names. People in this country need to GROW UP, they need to get BETTER EDUCATED.
