Controversy’s A’Comin…..When singing sexpot Adam Lambert makes his eagerly-anticipated return to ABC with an ABC on morning gabfest The View this Thursday, the Idol better be ready for a thorough tongue-lashing from conservative chatterbox Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

The outspoken mother-of-three is reportedly still peeved over A.L.’s live S&M show at last month’s 2009 American Music Awards, and she can’t wait to tear into the “glam rock” powerhouse.

“She can’t wait to bait Adam about his infamous inappropriate performance,” an PopEater.com insider said, adding, “and don’t expect her to pull any punches. She’s going for the kill.”
