Loved, loved, loved the IIHY music video...so fun. And Adam looked so hot! I totally agree. And, for some reason, maybe I am just protective, but I really get ticked off when people forget what he has done. |

Such great and clear videos of the Sunrise shows. Thank you so much for bringing them over. Adam is looking great. Now, fingers crossed I can find a way to see the actual shows. I think it is interesting that Leanne has been a coach on both UK and AU but not US. Adam has also never been a coach in the US although has coached a couple of shows in UK/AU. I wonder how the coaches are chosen.Adam was a coach/judge on Clash of the Cover Bands in the US. Also XFAustralia and Starstruck and Britain Get Singing? UK. That is a lot considering most artists don't get a chance to coach/judge at all. He was thought of for Idol a few times but I think once Katy Perry got the spot (they had the same management at the time and could get more money for her) it was off the table for him. But I believe he has mentored on Idol at least 4 times and guest judged so they adore him. Jhud coached on The Voice UK and US. Kelly coached on The Voice and a show called Duets many years ago. That is it for former Idols but maybe The Voice US thought two former Idols were enough. HA. But my guess is coaches are chosen based on management, availability, star power and need, etc. Katy Perry is leaving Idol so my guess is she will be replaced by a woman, otherwise they will have three men. If Luke leaves as some say he may, they will likely replace him with another country artist. Lionel with another AA artist. I would love to see Adam judge on Idol (or another UK Show) but it seems unlikely in the near future. Happy he got another chance in Australia. This is true, but most have been in the UK, Aus. That was my point. Not many in the US, even though he is American. He has mentored on Idol, but never a regular judge except for the time he filled in for Keith Urban. I had actually forgotten about Clash of the Cover Bands. He is a great judge and I guess it just botheres me (all the time) that the UK gives him more credit than his own country. Just me |

Every few years someone comes along trying to take credit for doing and accomplishing something that no other gay artists have done, lol. Adam never did that. He always acknowledged those who came before and opened doors. Several years ago, Troye gave an interview and said it was time for a gay artist, such as himself, to find success. I guess he had never heard of Sam, Adam and Frank who were current artists, who had done well. Then LNX comes along and says he has accomplished more and is better known than other gay artists. Also when Sam won the Oscar, he mistakenly said he was the first gay artist to accomplish that. And like Jojo, others set him straight. Even some publications are guilty with the comparisons. When Ada Vox competed on Idol, one said she was bolder and making more of a statement than Adam. She was not bolder than Adam she was a drag queen. She wore female clothing because she wanted a bigger drag career. There was no reason for Adam to compete on Idol wearing a dress because he was gay. He was not a drag queen nor did he aspire to be one. And why would wearing a dress be a standard for being a gay man? They are individuals with choices same as straight men. Besides, Adam wanted to advance his career with his talent like the other contestants. And he had more buzz and attention than anyone on Idol, gay or straight. HA. And when he became the first out artist to get a #1 on the BB200, it was others who praised that feat first. Adam was surprised but excited and honored and so were his fans. HA. The community has a long way to go and more progress to be made. But each contribution hopefully leads to more opportunities. No one person can claim all the credit.

Not sure I'd call leona Lewis the best voice in the music industry, but I'll certainly take that distinction for Adam.
And I loved their duet.
