I love how Brian is so ‘real’ - not enclosed in a fortress of huge success, wealth and celebrity where he could not-give-a-shit for what the little people choose to say. He still feels it so deeply and is prepared to stand up for himself and those he loves and respects. He addresses the issues directly, not through some PR machine - in a way any reader can relate to. He’s someone you’d always want on your team and I’m so glad Adam does.

Every time I think I can't love Brian May more, he does or writes something and then I do. I am so glad I had the privilege of meeting him for a short moment on that cold cold night in Glasgow, ages ago it seems.

twitter.com/BLABBERMOUTHNET/status/1150743277471010816BLABBERMOUTH.NET @blabbermouthnet QUEEN's BRIAN MAY Praises ADAM LAMBERT: FREDDIE MERCURY 'Would Approve, Big Time' www.blabbermouth.net/news/queens-brian-may-praises-adam-lambert-freddie-mercury-would-approve-big-time/QUEEN guitarist Brian May has praised Adam Lambert, saying that Freddie Mercury "would approve" of the singer "big time." QUEEN + ADAM LAMBERT kicked off their "Rhapsody" North American tour Wednesday night (July 10) at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The group's show is billed as an evening with QUEEN — which consists of May (guitar, vocals), Roger Taylor (drums, vocals), Lambert (lead vocals), and touring musicians Spike Edney (keyboards / vocals), Neil Fairclough (bass), and Tyler Warren (percussion / drums / vocals), as well as video montages and vocals by the late great Mercury. Before taking to the stage at San Jose's SAP Center last night (Sunday, July 14), May shared an Instagram photo of Lambert on stage and wrote in an accompanying message: "And here is the Modern Marvel without whom, for sure, QUEEN would not be out here delivering at the top level. Adam Lambert is only now beginning to be recognised by the greater public as the true phenomenon that he is. Gifted with a voice in a billion, for himself he is a passionate and unyielding perfectionist. Gifted to us, he is the reason that we are still alive as a functioning rock band. And still able to take on new challenges. Plus ... he's nice. That's a big deal when you're a touring family. Freddie would approve, big time." He added: "Also, and I will say this only once, for the benefit of just a few people who haven't stopped to think clearly. Just imagine how awful it would have been for Roger and myself to tour with a Freddie impersonator. Anyone who suggests such a thing doesn't belong here. To the vast majority of you lovely people out there — BIG THANKS for being respectful to Adam. In supporting him, you are supporting the life blood of the live QUEEN legacy. "Nothing is forever. This is a precious moment. We never pass this way again." Since Lambert first shared the stage with QUEEN for the 2009 "American Idol" final, his dynamic performances have reinvigorated the band and delighted fans worldwide. Their first full show together — starting as they meant to go on — thrilled a half-a-million-strong crowd in the Ukraine capital city of Kiev in June 2012. Since then, May and Taylor's musical fireworks have been matched by Lambert's vocal prowess and stage presence, making for an explosive combination. Over 180 gigs later, the partnership has proven a commercial and critical triumph, playing to enraptured full houses in every corner of the world.

Maybe reading those very tired comments about MMartel being better suited as frontman inspired him to write that.. they never seem to give up and are so disrespectful to Adam and Brian writing these things on his IG page. Probably, noticed even after he posted people still commenting about MM... just a complete head scratcher given what Bri wrote. Do they serously think they know better... delusional.
Guys, we just need to accept the fact that some people are just stupid and there ain't no fixing that.

He’s someone you’d always want on your team and I’m so glad Adam does. The man has soul. And he wears his heart on his sleeves, despite his intelligence. Brian is a very fine human being and following him on IG is both educational and inspiring. He is so articulate and honest in his feelings and perceptions of the world around him and I find that highly attractive. I wish that Adam was similar. He used to be an open book but I don't see that anymore. I think it would really help him "connect" more if he provided a little window into his soul occasionally and shared some thoughts about life in general, besides music related stuff only. Yes, I am hinting at engagement on social media. It is not that Adam can't be articulate.

sizzling63 i'm in my fourth year of fangirl, so i don't know how krass the Change in Adam is, but Adam simply got older. A 8 year old needs a different amount of privacy than a 16 year old. Also there is a time in your Life, where you shape. Your spirituality, your convictions, your political believes. I've found that to me now in my twenties. Once you've kind of settled into yourself maybe you have less to Share. At least new thoughts. Of course a human is ever evolving. Adam is quite open about His relationship. To keep a certain discretion is Just good sense because they havent even been to together a whole year, so this young plant of a relationship is still very small and fragile. If someone steps on it it's dead. Once it has grown into a sturdy it's a different thing. Adam also went through a dark phase and even got Help. I guess such a delicate time also requires some privacy and self-protection. Just rambling a bit
