They disabled the comments under the video. The first comments on this video were saying something like: What does Little Miss Lambert know about the world outside of his celebrity bubble. That there are still plenty of countries where being gay isn't accepted and gay people are being chased down and locked up. I haven't looked at it after that, but the last thing I saw was someone supporting Adam. There were only 3 comments at that point. I guess things got out of hand a bit after that.

Regarding Joey Gray's instagram...
I often think of the highs and lows of young people sourcing out directions in their life. Adam has been there, wondering where the next dollar is coming from, or food ie. Trader Joe cards from Mom. Recently Adam commented how happy he was to see some of his friends finally reaping the benefits of all the early work.
Joey and his postings, stopping his postings, then back to posting---and especially what he was posting at those times -- well, one could deduce highs and lows. A past child actor moving to LA. The industry is challenging. Going back to school in his more recent years in LA (university). Enjoying having a boyfriend. Working construction in the east during the dry spells. Trying out a publication. His dog passes. Going on a holiday with Adam, commenting on his depression. That period not being the only time he went into a dark mode. A guy has to come to grips with where he is going, what direction for a job/life etc. He gave LA, 12.5 years.
I wish him well as he starts this new phase in his life.

Oh I didn't see the comments. Glad they disabled the comments. This video seemed to have the most disproportionate number of thumbs down of all the other vids out, so was curious..

Adam was talking to American gay kids.. He was giving them a more hopeful future. IMHO,Many who objected to what Adam said ,were upset because he didn't mention all the countries who are terrible to gay people. That wasn't the reason for Adam's talk.. He was there to give the kids a forum and to discuss his experiences. He was not there to portray the world situation.

Adam has always said he is not an expert but can only discuss it from his personal experience, so to say "what does little miss Lambert know about the world outside his celebrity bubble, probably not much. But!!!!! he is gay and can speak to these kids about his life and as he said he learned a lot from them. Wish people would stop projecting their own problems onto to Adam. He keeps getting asked the questions, maybe he should just tell everyone to Fuck Off instead.

He was there to give the kids a forum and to discuss his experiences. He was not there to portray the world situation. Agree. The "It Gets Better" campaign in not about what is happening in Africa. There are problems all over the world. But Adam is trying to give the young people in the UK and other places some hope. It can't be all doom and gloom and making them feel defeated. Too many who feel there is no hope turn to suicide. I'll never forget the knocks Adam took from some in his community because they felt he had not suffered or been beaten down enough. It was really disappointing. Okay, his parents did not throw him out of the house and reject him for his sexuality. And he did not grow up gay in some small, rural Southern town. But he has dealt with bigotry and discrimination and rejection anyway. There will always be different types and degrees of hurt. Doesn't mean he knows nothing about what it is like to be gay or has anything to offer. And he was not always a celebrity (nor are most of his friends) so of course he knows what it is like to be gay (in America) before he found stardom.
