What bugs me the most about that damned petition is that the pictures they chose are the explicit performance pics from the AMA's so many years ago, as if he hasn't done any performances since that time. of course those particular pics are going to shock and scare the ultra-conservative folks who see them (hide the kids people). I was shocked at the time. But what about no Queen, no talk shows, no award shows, nothing from the ensuing years of wonderful, amazing performances and guest appearances. Nothing about his love and compassion and heart for inclusion. How unfair and inacurate of them. To me, it is inexcusable for Adam to have to defend himself against these deceitful bigots. Even tho he was totally charming, it shouldn't have been necessary. grr. Yes, exactly, you see how the bigots are trying to sway people's judgement, by not giving them the whole picture, and basically manipulating them? Are these people likely to research Adam for themselves or just be told to sign because, hey, look at these pics, and isn't he a bad person? If these people were well educated on their subjects, they maybe wouldn't be so close minded in the first place. I'm just rambling now, someone stop me....

Adam is not defending himself -- he has an opportunity to make a statement about something important. There is absolutely no apology or defense in his statement. JMHO this is ending up being a great Adam promo and will help forward equal rights in Singapore. In other words, it backfired on the anti-LGBT folks.

Even tho he was totally charming, it shouldn't have been necessary. grr. If it hadn't have been those, it would have been Burning Man or Brad or Green Adam or Drag Adam or mic stand stroking Adam or kissing Tommy GNT Adam. Pictures are easy to find if your goal is to show that Adam is gay and damn sexy. I am pretty sure that fair and accurate was not on their agenda. Interesting though that almost all the news publications use great pictures of him to lead the story. That is a change in itself.

"JMHO this is ending up being a great Adam promo and will help forward equal rights in Singapore. In other words, it backfired on the anti-LGBT folks." Yes! He couldn't buy this much positive publicity for his TOH tour! And so many articles have links for ALN video!

Ghost-congrats on completing your exams! I have to say you just blew me away with your post, both in content and in writing skills. Enjoy your trip, that is a beautiful place. I would have to say AhHellNo! to the glass bridge thing though.
