HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — ABC is rolling out the red carpet for Adam Lambert again.
The network has booked the former American Idol star for an appearance on The View next Thursday. The episode will air the morning after Barbara Walters's primetime special on the year's Most Fascinating People, which includes Lambert.
The visit to the chat-fest comes after ABC pulled the plug on a Lambert Good Morning America performance and his scheduled New Year's Eve appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The cancellations came in the wake of his controversial "For Your Entertainment" number at the American Music Awards, which led to ABC receiving about 1,500 complaints from viewers.
Last week, the 27-year-old singer said he didn't blame the network for the fallout from his racy AMA performance.
"Yes, sadly friends, ABC has canceled my appearances on Kimmel and NYE," he wrote Wednesday on his Twitter account. ":( don't blame them. It's the FCC heat."
