There's enough haters in this world. Let us learn to accept and include rather than be bigots.

Stop inciting fear and hate against each other. True followers of a religious faith don't do funny things like that to belittle fellow human beings. Where's the line going to be drawn to keep our country from becoming a religious state? In 2015 where diversity is celebrated, a simple countdown party ushering 2016 reveals the medieval mind sets and ugly nature of small groups of Singaporeans. This is getting a little out of hand.

We should allow Adam Lambert to perform. As a secular and open society, it's only right!

How can there be such closed mindedness in this day and age. Adam Lambert is the best performer we have to date!!!

i personally don't care for adam lambert's music but i've signed this petition because rightwing neocon christians have trotted out their "pro-family" stance again to pressurise singaporean authorities to cancel adam lambert's engagement at the national countdown party 2016, based on his sexual orientation and the fact that he is not in the closet (+ probably that he uses glitter and eyeliner. seriously). please sign this counter-petition and share in the name of sense and love, in the name of ending 2016 and entering 2017 with generosity and not bigotry, love and not hypocrisy. i also think it is super problematic that all the (castrated) local press covering this have not pointed out that the initiators of the petition are rightwing neocon christians because then it really strengthens their claims of being the "moral majority". also cc. stakeholder stat boards / organizations like mcccy, mediacorp, stb, i totally don't expect you lot to uphold your decision to keep adam lambert in the lineup for humanist reasons but darlings please think about the economic pragmatisms / tourist dollar / international rep, i have now seen a number of comments from international social media users saying the likes of "didn't realize singapore was full of haters and bigots" / "will mark singapore off my retirement plans" / "guess i won't be visiting singapore".

Can't understand what's wrong with him performing and what's wrong with Singaporeans suddenly being so darn conservative. Come on! His stage performance is stage performance. His sexual orientation is none of our business. You better don't buy anything from Apple if you are so bloody anal about things!

If you remove Adam Lambert for having displayed sexual acts toward other men, you will be setting a bad precedent for human rights.

It's embarrassing that some people are still homophobic to this day. I hope people blinded by religion will someday learn to see how to properly "love thy neighbour".

The same people who signed the petition against Adam Lambert are probably gonna stay in and go to bed at 10pm anyway.
