While we celebrate Adam's sexiness and freedom to be himself on stage and our freedom to express our joy in so many ways, it is sad that other parts of this world do not have the same freedom! @pride_site: Singer Dua Lipa was brought to tears as Chinese police forcibly removed the fans from their seats. bit.ly/2CUhZ7JTerrible. Adam has performed in China several times as a solo artist and also with Queen without incident that I have heard of. Even won three awards there and was interviewed on state tv. A few endorsement deals. Magazine interviews. Were there no LGBT fans at his shows? Or maybe things have changed? Or maybe there were no flags displayed. An awful situation tho. Of course there were the bomb threats in Russia so it is scary in a lot of places. Sigh! From what I have read about this, it is not clear why they were removed from the Dua Lipa concert -- except it was venue security, not police. BBC reported it was people who were standing and dancing.
This was in Shanghai -- which is a bit less repressive than some other parts of China. Really surprising.

The Russian anti-gay movement is a whole nother matter -- seems like things are quite bad in Russia for LGBTQ rights right now.

Downloads for QAL Las Vegas HQ Audio Split by Songs
Sep 7th HQ Audio: t.co/a77RcaUYuPSep 8th HQ Audio: t.co/g0IgIoLO8p Each link contains the following self explanatory folders: Album Artwork FLAC - Split by Song M4A - Split by Song MP3 - Full Show MP3 - Split by Song If you would prefer different album artwork then the one I chose for the audio files you downloaded, you can download alternate album artwork from the "Album Artwork" folder. I use a Windows PC software called Mp3tag to change the album artwork, or any other metadata tags, for all audio file types. You can also change the album artwork in iTunes on a Windows PC or a Mac PC for M4A or MP3 files, but not for FLAC files. AND THANKS TO DEVENLANE FOR HOSTING THE AUDIO FILES ON HER MEGA SITE!!! Note that on Devenlane's Mega site you can also download the Pics, Videos, and the streaming Audio from others that Devenlane has gathered and saved on her site for archival purposes. If you navigate her site, you can find all sorts of videos, audio, and pictures for other events from the past for download. If you cannot download YouTube videos yourself, check the downloads on her site! Keeping these archival copies for everyone to download incurs a monthly hosting cost that she pays out of donations and her pocket. So please donate a few dollars if you can.

Terrible, indeed. I think, I remember, that fans at Adam’s last tour in China had also to sit during the whole performance. Even his friend Johnny. And they had a lot of lighting sticks. No flags though from what I remember from the streamed Shanghai concert. It would be interesting to know, if those fans at Dua Lipa were thrown out, because they were waving flags or because they were waving rainbow flags. I think both is possible in China. Just so unnecessary. 😥 Yep. China is tough. I suspect it was the rainbow flags. But a few years ago, the state canceled a Maroon 5 tour in China because one of his band members tweeted something in support for the Dalai Lama. I don't think they have been invited back. There was a time a religious group tried to stop Adam from performing in Malaysia but the government allowed him to perform if he agreed to tone things down a bit with performance and dress. He kept his word and made sure he did nothing to create a safety problem for himself/band or his fans. I believe 17,000 happy fans came out to see him. On the other side of the equation, Beyoncé would not agree to tone down her dress or performance there but instead chose to cancel her performance there. Don't know if she has since been there. Problems in a number of countries for performers and LGBT fans. Malaysia had very set rules that ALL artist must follow. I think the fact that the rules applied to everyone, and not just certain people, was the reason Adam was willing to follow the rules. The rules included no bare midriffs on women or men (his female dance wore leotards under their costumes to cover their midriffs. But they seemed to have no problem with the skirts being very short in front. Adam's costumes did not need to be modified. The rules also stated that no person on stage could get closer then 1 foot (not sure of exact number) to any other person on stage. So some of the dancing had to be modified to keep more distance between everyone. And of course no kissing Tommy. Adam blew a kiss to the whole audience instead! The problem for Beyonce was that she would have had to have almost a complete different costume wardrobe made for the one show. Not practical. I don't know why they were not aware of this before booking the show.

Perhaps this has already been suggested but....
Re. The 'trousers down' pic.
They both clearly share a love of tattoos so perhaps Adam was showing her the one of Pharaoh on his calf.
