Wow! After blurring Adam Lambert’s same-sex kiss, CBS managed to find a way to have the Idol singer on its television network without the need for any censorship. Amusing, then, that it takes place on The Late Show, recently the crime scene of CBS’s most sex-plagued in-house scandal, like, ever.

Excellent performance!

This is Adam at his best. If he had done something like this on the AMAs, he wouldn’t have had all the problems. But he wouldn’t have had all the international publicity, either. My 2nd cousin in Dubrovnik, Croatia has now heard of him. He will sell out arenas in Japan. Go Adam!

Truly talented singers sound just as good in front of a 120 piece orchestra as the do sitting at the piano or strumming a guitar. Any singer that requires the vocal tricks that he uses is nothing more than a hack. He needs tricks and whole heap of extras just to be noticed. He is a cog in the modern day PT Barnum machine we call American Idol.

dellisonly #3: You obviously didn’t see him on Idol. LOL
What he did on Sunday night was apparently just the kick to the ignition that his career needed. LOL
And he’s got the right-wingers in such a twist that they’re turning blue from their respiratory systems giving out. It’s a win-win. LOL

#2 DUDE 567 – Your cousin is very lucky – Dubrovnik is a BEAUTIFUL city and the men are gorgeous on the coast during the summer!

In hindsight, Adam was absolutely brilliant. He immediately announced his agenda — he’s gay, he’s not taking any BS, and he’s totally ready to fuck things up — and then just backed off and blew people away with talent.
That’s far more than the gay community could have asked for. (And yes, the record is pretty great.) Here’s to a long and illustrious career.

@#3 What’s hack is your argument. Here’s a vocal trick, a 22 second breath hold in LIVE Brigadoon light opera at 3:20.

This is one of the best songs on the album (thank you, Pink), but they’re all actually shockingly good. I’m not a superfan kind of guy, but Adam Lambert is becoming everything I want in a pop star.

Anyone who’s insane enough to think this boy doesn’t have the most amazing voice ever

And to make things even worse, in case any of you hasn’t heard – ABC the MF’s are guesting Chris Brown, woman batterer on their show!!! YOU GET IT? The guy who beat the shit out of his girlfriend Rihanna is OK for them. They aren’t afraid he’s an awful role model. One homo kiss and simulated bj makes them go nuts but not a potential murderer!
I hate humanity….

WOW! I was just reduced to a puddle of tears listening to that gorgeous, bitter-sweet rendition of “Come To Me: from Brigadoon.
Thank you for turning me onto that video, No. 7 – Ben.
And, eat your heart out, No,. 3 – Delusionally. Misspell intentional.

Good Lord that “Brigadoon” clip is absolutely stunning!

With his own acknowldgement that he is gay, the obvious success of his new cd and with the deepest of respect for him, may I say that if Michael Jackson was the King of Pop, would Adam Lambert not now be the Queen of Pop?
Or would I get popped in the mouth for saying that? 😛

Good. Adam grew up this week. I bet you wont see him being all eager and “gosh, what a world” hokey in interviews anymore. The media monster eats all the nice out of you. I hope he stays at attention and battles out the censors and gay haters with verve and gusto.

@ WWWL #14: I hope so to.

Adam is on a roll. I knew once he started it’d be hard to shut him up. He’s chatty.
Promo on “Open House Party” “I’ll be on later tonight with Canon…if he’s real good maybe I’ll give him a kiss” ..with a laugh.
Then Twittergurls went nuts and the dj tweeted you guys like that, huh? LMAO
#14 WWWL Right “gosh, what a world” is done.
#15 Hai Romeo!
here’s a link but it’s kinda painful lol. He’s coming on soon.
