My Favorite Scene || by Seth Abramovitch || 07 17 2009 11:20 AM EXCLUSIVE: The American Idols Share Their Favorite Movie Scenes With Movieline
ADAM LAMBERT
"One of my favorite movies of all time is Velvet Goldmine, by Todd Haynes, and the scene that comes to mind is when Ewan McGregor's character is first introduced and he's a singer, a rock star, and the camera comes in on him -- he's on stage -- and he gets naked, pours beer all over himself, then glitter on top of that. He shakes the glitter can around his crotch like he was jerking off onto the audience and then lights the foot of the stage on fire. And to me, that just sums up everything that a rock star should be. It's like a fantasy sequence. That movie is absolutely brilliant -- and a little underrated in my opinion, too. I was about 22 when I first saw it, and I was just like, whoa. It's a movie loosely based on a Ziggy Stardust-type character and an Iggy Pop-type character. It doesn't specifically name them but they're clearly modeled after those two rock stars, and it's just cool. It's a love letter to the glam scene."
YouTubes:
1. VELVET GOLDMINE (1998) "TV Eye", Curt Wild (Ewan McGregor)
2. The real "Velvet Goldmine"

He shakes the glitter can around his crotch like he was jerking off onto the audience and then lights the foot of the stage on fire.

The top 10 Idols, in order of their finish and excluding Scott MacIntyre, named their favorite movie scenes.
My note: One of these things is not like the others.
KRIS ALLEN - Independence Day "The first one that popped into my head is Independence Day, when Bill Pullman, who plays the President, gets up on a flatbed truck and delivers that speech to the pilots. 'We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.' That was really good."
ADAM LAMBERT - Velvet Goldmine "One of my favorite movies of all time is Velvet Goldmine, by Todd Haynes, and the scene that comes to mind is when Ewan McGregor's character is first introduced and he's a singer, a rock star, and the camera comes in on him -- he's on stage -- and he gets naked, pours beer all over himself, then glitter on top of that. He shakes the glitter can around his crotch like he was jerking off onto the audience and then lights the foot of the stage on fire. And to me, that just sums up everything that a rock star should be. It's like a fantasy sequence. That movie is absolutely brilliant -- and a little underrated in my opinion, too. I was about 22 when I first saw it, and I was just like, whoa. It's a movie loosely based on a Ziggy Stardust-type character and an Iggy Pop-type character. It doesn't specifically name them but they're clearly modeled after those two rock stars, and it's just cool. It's a love letter to the glam scene."
DANNY GOKEY - Disney's Aladdin One of my favorite scenes is from Disney's Aladdin, when the genie first comes out of the lamp. The genie -- Robin Williams -- just cracks me up. He says all these random things, and he scares Aladdin. It's awesome -- a funny moment. I love Disney, and DreamWorks. [He sees a journalist he knows.] I'm sorry, I have to ask this guy a question. [He asks the journalist about a young brunette woman in the room. The journalist replies that he thinks she's an intern with one of the TV crews.] Man she's cute. MOVIELINE: Which one is she? DG: I don't want to turn around and make it obvious. ML: In the high-heeled silver shoes? DG: Uh-huh. She's very cute. ML: Well, you're the rock star, you're supposed to, you know, be a rock star. DG: Make a move, right? I'm pretty cautious when it comes to relationships. ML: Would this be a relationship? DG: Ahhhh -- even those. None of that. I don't want to be disrespectful. Not that I'd disrespect them. But a one-night stand ... I don't know, I feel would be like I'd be disrespecting them. MY NOTE: Gokey always comes across as a jerk, for me for you.
ALLISON IRAHETA - Ace Ventura: Pet Detective "The first scene for some reason that came to my head right now was in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, when Jim Carrey's coming out of the rhino. It's pretty gross. That for some reason just came into my head. It's one of my favorite scenes! When he's coming out of the rhino."
MATT GIRAURD - The Godfather "In The Godfather, the scene where Pacino does his first crime. Anyway, they're sitting there at the table and they're going to kill that police chief guy at this little Italian restaurant. It's so intense, because that's like the breaking point when he really becomes a gangster. Before that he was just a good little, you know, army guy. A military man. That's when he really makes the change. I love that scene. It's so intense. They hide the gun in the bathroom, and he comes out. It's always sweet. Badass forever."
ANOOP DESAI - Swingers "My scene is from the movie Swingers, which is my favorite movie ever. It's the very end of the movie, where Mikey is talking to T, they're in a coffee shop. And Mikey had just met this girl the night before. He'd be sweatin' his ex-girlfriend for six months, and he's really in a rut. And he finally meets this girl, and he's out of it. So the roles are sort of switched. T is the ladies' man, giving advice the whole movie. And in the end, T ends up making a fool of himself and then Mikey is the one that's very content. That means a lot to me, because one of my best friends made me watch that movie when I was sort of going through a rough time in my life, and it sort of gave me hope for the future, gave me a road map for how to be yourself and things will just come -- which fortunately has worked out for me."
LIL ROUNDS - The Notebook "The movie for me would be The Notebook. I love The Notebook. The scene that I love the most is when Allie gets together with Noah, and they start dating. She finally decides to go out with him. And they're leaving the movies, and they're getting ice cream, and she takes the ice cream and shoves it in his face and starts playing around with him a little. That's like the funnest part for me because I've done that to my husband before. Just playin' around. Then they kiss afterwards. That's the cutest little part of that movie."
SCOTT MACINTYRE - unfortunately omitted for time constraints and not his visual impairment
MEGAN JOY - Dancer in the Dark "I love movies. There's so many different ones I could talk about, but the one that just came to my mind is from Dancer in the Dark. Right when Björk's character is about to be executed, she's singing and counting her steps as she goes, and her son is involved, and I cried and I cried. I kind of think about it sometimes. Björk is one of the biggest influences in my life."
MICHAEL SARVER - Tombstone "The movie Tombstone, when Val Kilmer's character Doc Holliday was supposed to be sick in the bed. Doc goes out to take care of a duel that was supposed to happen between another person and his pal Wyatt Earp, played by Kurt Russell. And Wyatt comes out, and Doc said, 'Oh, I wasn't quite as sick as I made out.' I don't know why, but that was one of my favorite lines ever."

Little Mary Sunshine February 9, 2004 - Little Mary Sunshine Adam is Buster Musical Theatre Guild The Alex Theatre Glendale, CA
Little Mary Sunshine Play found by Timegoesby www.musicaltheatreguild.com/MTGLittleMarySunshine.htmlen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Mary_Sunshine Timegoesby found the play and told me about it. (Adam is listed in the cast as Buster, a forest ranger.) She was convinced from the beginning that Adam was second from the right. Lol It was, indeed, the rib cage that finally convinced me. When we posted the find, I think it was Q3 that was very excited because she had seen the play. I must have been absent the day a video link was posted. If you still have the vid link, I'll add it to Pre Idol. This is the only source link about Adam that I have: www.musicaltheatreguild.com/MTGLittleMarySunshine.html and general info from Wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Mary_Sunshine Yes, that was in the Alex Theater in Glendale, CA. I have no recollection of the funny looking guy in red. And I did not retain the program. :( ETA: Or is that the Alex Theatre? Sorry Glendale I can't remember. Although I once lived in Glendale and I attended the grand reopening of the Alex. A beautiful theater -- one of the old atmospheric movie houses. And the restoration was very well done. Ah - 'Little Mary Sunshine' is off the play radar now - - - while it was a hilarious romp, there were moments that our Native American population found offensive and stereotypical. I know. I was "Little Mary" in the NorCal production in 1987. One of the best experiences of my life! The music was a delight; the interplay on stage with the Rangers and 'Naughty Nancy' was hilarious! I will never forget my duet with 'Captain Jim' - titled 'Colorado Sky'. It closed the first act, and the reviewer said it was one of the most over-the-top, lyrical, operatic parodies (of Jeanette and Nelson) he had ever heard. I loved the cast - I loved every single line and every single song of this play - - it was brilliant! And, the last solo Little Mary had is a number called "Cuckoo"!! I kid you not. If anyone has a clip of this show, please, please let me know!! OMG, I was in Little Mary Sunshine at Glendale High School, and I always went to the Alex Theatre to see movies. This is great!!! Here I am in the middle sitting down:
