I just did a quick reading of posts over the past 24 hours, and this is my take on Adam's status quo: He wanted dimmer switches, and he now presumably has those in every room of his multi-million dollar home, as well as a custom-designed and built backyard entertainment area. He wanted longevity, and he's hung in there (and, IMO, actually increased in at least public awareness, if not popularity, since his Idol finale in, what was it?, 2009?) He thrives on keeping busy, and he's been busy enough that blogs such as this one have had daily reports, if even just one little nibble, allllll theeeeeese years. He's made it!!!!!! There's no other way to look at it. He may not be Mr. Popularity on the charts, but, in my take on his personality, that's not necessarily where he aimed to be in the first place. From his critiques on XFactor, it's clear to me that being an "artist" is huge to him. The musicians of whom he is a fan are often off-the-beaten-path guys and gals. Taking risks and stretching oneself is what seems to make him tick. Sometimes, as in the case of Gaga, that makes one a mega-star. In other cases, it makes one a respected artist with longevity, if not vast popularity. I'm proud of him and I'm proud to be a fan who just KNEW he'd make it past those projected (by some nasty folks) 15 minutes of fame.

This election is devastating. What can people be thinking? I'm stunned and disappointed in humanity right now.

Well, look at hot little Isaiah! Nice outfit!! Now these shoes Isaiah is wearing with no socks reminds me of something Adam might have suggested for him. What a cutie! He actually reminds me a bit of a young Steven Tyler here. He's actually, technically, much better looking than Steven, IMO, but the similarities are there, I think.

Has anyone seen any response from Iggy to Guy and Adam's comments? I haven't, but on today's show, Iggy referred to Adam as her "good friend" and still seemed to lean and look in his direction a lot of the time. Guy really seemed out of sorts tonight in general and not really as friendly, in my estimation, anyway, toward either Iggy or Adam. I just got a strange vibe for some reason.

Geez, wonder what was up with Guy on today's performance show? He seemed really negative, particularly with Adam's kids. My husband's opinion is that he's just putting a spin on things because he sees Adam's acts as the greatest competition for the acts he's mentoring. I thought I liked this show more than Idol, but I'm not liking how cut-throat a couple of the judges are getting with their opinions. Adam and Iggy seems to be giving their gut feelings, while I think Guy and, in some cases, Mel B seem to be slanting their "opinions" in favor of their own acts and dissing a lot about the others.

OT But just needed to let everyone know that my roommate lost her battle this morning. At least her suffering is over. :( So sorry to hear this. I lost a friend yesterday, her suffering is over now too. Deeply saddening, I know. Love and hugs to you.. Oh, I am so, so sorry for the loss of your friend.

I'm excited to hear about this concert. My son lives in Taichung, Taiwan, but he has friends who live in Taipei. I'll be interested to hear the reactions if any of them go to the concert!
