Morphine Prince 96,221 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 The petition against Lambert, addressed to concert organizer Mediacorp and the government, has gathered around 14,000 signatures to back its case that a performance by the openly gay singer did not align with Singaporean values. Sex between men is illegal in Singapore. "We urge the organizers of Countdown 2016 to recognize and respect the values of the majority of Singapore that has voiced its desire to preserve our nation’s moral fiber," reads the protest petition, which was posted anonymously by a group saying it represented concerned parents.

teo 609 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 People should just learn to mind their own business, not just in Singapore but everywhere. If they're so afraid they'll be infected with gayness just don't go to the damn show. Nobody's wants you there anyway. He's already going to hell according to religion so what more do they want from the man? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't throw away the wrapper. you can't bring gum into the country but you can consume it. I was caught with a whole box of gum at the immigration once, they let me keep my gum and gave me a warning there's also a counter petition which actually has more signatures http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/we-want-adam-lambert-performing-in-countdown-2016 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
