Is that sauna picture from Adam's house? I don't know. Was wondering myself. There was no pic of a sauna in the RE pics back two years ago when he bought it. But, the listing does show a sauna.....so could be at his house or could be elsewhere. Wonder if he's hit the Runyon Canyon ass blaster course yet. lol Lot: 9,280 sqft Single Family Built in 1947 All time views: 4,914 Cooling: Central Heating: Forced air Last sold: Apr 2014 for $2,995,000 Last sale price/sqft: $612 FEATURES Barbecue Cable Ready Deck Fenced Yard Fireplace Flooring: Hardwood Garden Gated Entry Hot Tub/Spa Intercom Jetted Tub Lawn Mother-in-Law Apartment Parking: Garage - Detached, On street, 2 spaces Partial basement Patio Sauna
Security System Skylight View: City Wired Mother-in-law apartment! I remember years ago MTV had a show where performers showed off their houses... I'd love to see Adam's house (as a big fan of HGTV, Houzz.com, etc.).

I know this is a bit OT but FB just notified me that I had to put my real name on my FB account and show ID or I couldn't use my account. They blocked me off it!!! Has this happened to anyone else?? This account is 100% Adam. >:( Facebook's Terms of Service have always stated that a Facebook page must be a real identity. Many people ignore that but Facebook does either through random checks or in response to reports routinely ask for verification or sometimes will lock out pages. I guess you never saw any of the articles that got posted here at one point where a bunch of drag queens protested being locked out of their pages that used their stage names. There has been ongoing protests on this issue as in some cases people could have safety reasons for not wanting their real id linked to a Facebook page but Facebook has not relented. In case you didn't realize one of Facebook's advertising points is that Facebook user's are not anonymous but linked to real people. Google it and I'm sure you will come up with loads of articles about it. They have ALWAYS from the very outset insisted that users not be anonymous but unless you get caught in a random check or someone reports your page it is basically an honor system.

Is that sauna picture from Adam's house? If the sauna is at his house, I can think of a special guest who would really enjoy it. I assume it's a Finnish sauna

How can they possibly require an ID? In what form? How would anyone agree to that in today's world of id thefts?

Direct link: societyofrock.com/exciting-news-of-possible-new-queen-album/Looks like a regurgitation of some interviews where they kinda answered with "good idea" type response. And that whole thing about Adam "leaving Queen" spells ignorance imo... We do know that Adam said he'd start working on the next album in the fall, and Brian just announced another Candellight tour with Kerry Dec 7 to dec 23. As much as new QAL music would be interesting I somehow don't expect it to materialize any time soon...

YOu people have go to stop mothering him lol. He is a grown man, who swears some times, says things out of chord. I mean he does say he has no filter. He's only Human is what I am saying. On another topic I See GT hit 70 million views, I Could see that hitting 100 mill in 2 months or so. We're not mothering him. We're just stating our opinions, which reflect more on us than on him. If we were tweeting him directly, we'd be mothering him. Or at least being intrusive. I don't think it's mothering to express our opinions here on Atop. I'm certainly not in his face telling him what I think of those antics. That would be mothering. Don't do it to my own grown kids and sure wouldn't do it to an artist that I follow.

OK I'm sure I will be called sexist with this statement. But he is a man and according to him a grown ass one. Men with few exceptions are crude with each other. There is a group personality, and a one with all men and anything in between. Gestures and vocabulary differ between each. I'm very sure the Adam seen in a club would be more crass and I think he uses some gestures, costumes (D&M necklace anyone) to create a persona on stage. The tongue and v fingers? Not sure he would ever use it in real life. I think it is a male to female thing? Or am I wrong?
Now to be perfectly fair women do the same thing. How we talk to our girlfriends alone, in groups or in mixed company can be and is different. I'm not sure that women use as many rude gestures as men, but they use them. However after some discussions we have had on here about cultural differences I think I'll keep my hands in my pockets.

I don't know what Adam is like in private, during his personal time, when there are no reporters or cameras around. He might be very mild and vanilla, he might be crude and raunchy, he might be sexy or dorky.
I believe that Adam on stage is a persona. Like many actors say, each role is drawn from personal experiences and feelings, but is not who they are personally. I remember an early interview with Adam where he told of being on the Idol tour and realizing that women were seeing him as a sex object. How he was surprised that they squealed at every body roll. How he modified his act to put more sexy moves because he thought that was what his fans wanted and expected (but, it turned out, not the AMA audience).
What we see when Adam gets on stage is Adam PERFORMING as he interprets his role, be it as a camp-y Queen frontman, a Hebrew cantor, a college gleek kid who wants to make it as a rock star in a band, a lead in a Broadway musical, or a super-sexual pop singer. In his role as the TOH dance club, "let's party", young sexy singer, he is definitely NOT playing to my demographic. If I want to see and hear him perform these days, I have to accept that. But, I DO think that it is all Adam, playing the role and giving his audience a show. I can't draw any deeper conclusions than that about his private personality or life.
