I have no issues with people who legitimately don't care for the music - would be fingers on chalkboard for my rammstein loving husband, but reviewer commits the cardinal sin... ;D I have tickets for Rammstein on Sunday in Vancouver, going with my Lady Gaga-loving wife... Great music is great music (to quote AFL: My ears don't discriminate). The one should not exclude the other, try playing him some Runnin', he might get on board after a while!  |

You know i now remember...sort of.... was it on Chelsea lately that they had camp staffer come out and act all crushy on Adam? I actually didnt like that. And im not sure Adam did either. There was something so stereotype-y about it. I'm expecting more of the same....the gay jokes are kinda her thing. Happily, hers are usually rather silly and not mean spirited. |

There was something so stereotype-y about it. Yeah, that was the one. It was awkward but Adam saved it by joking that all gays are attracted to all gays--drawing forth the stereotype. |

justgill, all these streams are getting the music (the album) out there. This is creating huge buzz---people are talking about Trespassing, and I have seen posts from casual fans who are now planning to purchase the album because the music is so good. It has been said a million times, but all artists see their music downloaded illegally. But I firmly believe that if a person plans to illegally download an album there is not much you can do to stop it. They know the process and would have done it with or without a stream.
The buzz and attention Trespassing has gotten is about the best promo you can get. Oh, and of course GMA. I have to take a second to flail about GMA!!!Full circle moment. (Now he just needs that People cover---heck, I'll take a 1 or 2 page article at this point---and my flailing will be complete)
eta---I hated that last interview Adam did for Chelsea Lately. When they had that staff person come out and flirt with him itis completely uncomfortable, not to mention just dumb. And Adam, who is really the ultimate good sport, didn't seem too thrilled with it.

LGBT Power Poll Results: Who Topped the Reader List?5.10.2012 BY OUT.COM EDITORS tinyurl.com/6qm9eqvWho did you think the most powerful LGBT person in America is? You voted. We have the results. This year, when we published Out's Sixth Annual Power List—which ranked 65 LGBT people according to their political, social, economic, and overall cultural influence—we also asked our readers to let us know who they thought deserved to be included. Well, as you might have predicted, it seems to prove that TV and celebrity (rather than politics or behind-the-scenes hard workers) matter most to people, and the poll turned into a bit of a popularity contest. And who topped the list? It was a write-in candidate, and he won by a landslide:Adam LambertAs one commenter wrote: "Adam Lambert has far more followers than just those who discovered him on Idol. He has a large international fanbase and took the gutsy road with his honesty when he became well-known. He is an advocate for human rights, not just gay issues. Not to mention the killer voice." Although there were desenters. Another voter wrote: "You guys have ruined the 'validity' of the poll. I love Adam too, but come on." Although it seems that was enough to get him to top of the list with close to 2,000 people writing in his name to declare him the "Moster Powerful LGBT Person in America". More

It's been an emotional evening reading all the EW comments and I completely agree with Cassie's take that the 'review' was "offensive, insulting, and pandering to narrow and ugly stereotypes of people who are gay, etc." That said, I'm sort of sorry that a lot of the commenters on their website (up to over 600 at this point) chose to just take issue with her 'B-grade' ... it sort of misses the point and invalidates the hate-filled diatribe. It makes it look like sour grapes that she didn't give him an A ... as a few people pointed out. Also, I've subscribed for a long time, and last week's issue (May 11) had a full page article on Adam with a nice photo. Unfortunately I sent it to a friend of mine so I don't have it here to scan and I can't remember who the writer was on it (obviously it wasn't Ms. M). I'll call my friend tomorrow and ask. Did anyone else see it? If I remember right, it was a Q&A. Late to the thread, as usual. I, too, am a long-time subscriber to EW. I was so excited to see the full-page Q&A with Adam last week. (I still have it, but I can't remember how to post a photo & maybe someone already has...PM me if you want a copy of it.) I was waiting for a glowing review this week, and I'm so disappointed at this turn. I like EW because it's a good overview of new movies, music, TV, theater and books, without getting into all the gossipy stuff of most other pop culture mags. This comes especially hard as I live in NC and am trying to deal with the overwhelming approval for the anti-gay marriage amendment. Feeling  and  |
