Fantabulous performer Adam Lambert has responded to the hullabaloo surrounding his performing for Singapore's New Year countdown show via a statement posted on Facebook on Nov. 27, some two days after a petition was put up online to ban him from it:

“My'>
performance at Celebrate 2016 will not only be a spectacular one, it will celebrate the entire human family in all...

And in case you can't see that, here's his statement in full:

"My performance at Celebrate 2016 will not only be a spectacular one, it will celebrate the entire human family in all its diversity. I am a uniter, not a divider, and I believe in celebrating the human heart and spirit. I have put together an entirely new show experience for my fans that is kicking off in Singapore. The Original High tour is based primarily on new material, and it promises to be a thoughtful and sophisticated insight into the pursuit of happiness and self-worth. There is no better time for celebration than at the moment one year changes into another, so I hope you will join me to celebrate the future and 2016."

 

Lambert's response comes in the wake of the announcement that he will be one of the headliners of Singapore's national new year countdown show.

What followed over the course of this week was a round of back-and-forth petitions, starting with this one:
