Look at your boy now Eber! DragonGirl @cuckoobert 58m58 minutes ago Adam Lambert Net Worth richestnews.com/adam-lambert-net-worth/ …

No, it won't work like that because of expenses and taxes. We know he has great accountants and financial advisers so I am sure they are sheltering his money BUT the effective tax rate for a high-income resident of Los Angeles is 45% -- Federal, State, Local, SSI, MC etc. So whatever he grosses is not what he gets to keep. *** My guess is that Adam's net worth is well above $10-$12 million -- and he also has equity he has in rights -- recording and songwriting. I am certain that you can take all these printed reports and forget about them. It is safe to say that Adam is doing fine. And he is lives very conservatively considering what he makes. *** Regarding the Queen Tour -- Q+AL is a moderately expensive arena tour (smallish crew, not too elaborate set, note 39 trucks, etc.) but the ticket prices are high, most shows are selling out or close to it, and the VIP ticket sales are astounding. Plus, look at the numbers on the VIP posters from North America (they had to extend them to ###/8,000 and I have a poster at 7,268 so that means there were at least 7,268 $550 tickets. That is not counting all the other VIP upgrades they sold. The surcharge less the cost of the box of stuff all goes to Q+AL. 7,500 x $350 = $2.6 million. And that was the smallest # of tickets VIP level. They sold of ton at the $330 level.) Note: I did not look up the prices so they may be off a bit but just to illustrate. Queen themselves are multi-millionaires, still handled by Jim Beach after all these years and he was present at the Classic Rock Awards. I myself was wondering how that works out, because someone correct me if I'm wrong that Freddie's estate still benefits and also John Deacon, although neither has performed with Queen, for all these years. Prior to Freddie's death, Jim Beach met with him and worked out the best way to leave Queen a functioning, distinct entity, from his own estate. Jim Beach had stated feeling conflicted, due to his being manager of the entire band, but he was aware of the state of Freddie's health way before, it became apparent. The guys in Queen were well taken care of. I'm uncertain how Adam fits into the equasion, but since Adam is the driver of the Ferrari that is Queen vocally, his compensation has got to be significant. Perhaps we were lucky here in the US, as the ticket prices were reasonable, particularly in view of what the upcoming show's tickets cost. I was wondering since Adam is performing as the catalyst, that being lead vocalist, in lieu of Freddie, are the compensation splits the same? Also with Spike and one extra person, that being Rufus, it's easy to see how nightmarish trying to figure things out can be. The members of Queen are well beyond multi-millionaires. Brian and Roger both have net worths around US$200+ million not including the rights to the music and recording masters which Queen and the individual members own. Freddie's Trust is worth US$100+ million [could be as much as US$250 million hard to estimate] plus the Freddie rights which probably are the most valuable of any member of Queen. John Deacon's net worth is around US$115-150 million. For scale (because it is public, Queen info is not) Michael Jackson's estate is now worth is $600 million -- $500 million earned (pretax) since he died. ** The concert deal is not public but it is clear that Brian, Roger and Adam are all well compensated and make more than anyone else including John and the Freddie Mercury Trust. The touring bandmembers, including Spike get paid substantially less. ** Moving back to Adam solo artist -- the AMAs seem like a real possibility to me -- the timing is right. And Adam is not committed to anything in late November. I cannot imagine a more buzz-worthy way to debut his new music. And I can't imagine a more buzz-worthy booking for the AMAs. Personally, I have mixed feelings about it because if they do book it, the old 2009 performance will be back in the news and I am not a fan of the singing on that performance.

Then again despite the bad vocal performance. The Ama's for better or worse is still his most famous performance as a solo artist. I actually liked it because it forced a shake up of double standards in the industry. But think of the buzz and PR it would bring. And obviousley Adam has gotten better and better as a performer since. So whatever the song, it cannot end up like the FYE one, it well be different, so his singing this time around should over shadow 2009.

Plus the "controversy" looks downright foolish now, and ABC execs look like idiots (which they were). Adam you are also right has grown so much since 2009 and he is not dealing with all the crap that was laid on him from May 2009 to November 2009. Must have been a totally insane time for him. ** In any case, it seems possible. The timing is right. But you know what they say about counting chickens.....

Even if the "historic" performance was referenced, it would probably be the same old clips that got blurred before (maybe unblurred)--not the whole song with singing issues. And the reaction to it then would seem a bit-----quaint. So much has happened. It would really highlight what a groundbreaking performance it was--even though I thought it was the end of his career. </img>

I couldn't work out how to post before, when someone mentioned that Queen and Paul Rodgers rarely get acknowledgment. Prior to Adam's first tour outing with Queen, Paul Rodgers made comments to the effect that Adam probably couldn't handle being out with Queen. Can we say infamous last words???? To be fair, he didn't say that Adam couldn't handle it - he stated that it was Adam's first go around with such a big arena rock show and that touring with Queen is a different animal than he was used to and that it would be a daunting challenge. In fact he wished him well. I never got anything negative from Paul about the collaboration at all.

If anything Paul has been the one who has gotten some negativity in comparison to Adam's great performance
