Sorry to be so late to the discussion, but I was surprised to read in yesterday's thread that some people think Adam's done the heterosexual photoshoot (was it Details?) to get into the mainstream. That was the (completely wrong IMO) viewpoint of that Out editor, what's his name, who recently did the bed interview with Adam. For me it was like, just in the moment he placed and branded himself as gay, and when everybody were expecting him to do something daring and outrageous in that direction, he went and did something daring the other direction. I was so surprised when I saw that photoshoot I started laughing. I love that he's able to surprise me like that! And besides being interesting, it was also a declaration of independence, saying he can do whatever he chooses. Why can't he be gay and shoot sexy photos with a female model? For some reason it reminds me of the Miley Cyrus "scandal", when she performed with Robin Thicke. Watching it on my TV I again started laughing. I liked how she took the "logic" of the song and ran with it, with all her grinding and slutty moves, like "OK, you're right, I really really want it, just like you say, now whatcha gonna do about it?" and made him look, forgive me, like an old fart, who can only talk the talk with his chauvinistic song, but can't walk the walk. For me that was a young woman's declaration of independence, that society (or parts of it) couldn't cope with, just like it couldn't cope with Adam's, and chose to interpret in a completely different way. I love your interpretation and I agree with it 100%. I think his shoot with the female model was ultra sexy and so totally unexpected. I still love that super sexy shoot and say BRAVO Adam for doing it. Sexy is sexy and Adam is sex on a stick. period.

I'm betting Adam paid for lodging - looks like villas start at $3000 a night without special events happening on the island, and then everyone else paid flights and other expenses which would still be significant. I'd also bet Adam might have given money to a trusted surrogate that friends could approach if they were short. SaveThere's a lot of speculation and we'll never know (I hope) who paid for what. But while we can probably assume Adam treated the group to something at some point during the vacation, these guys are adult men with jobs and I hope they can manage their pocket money! Just sayin'... You would be surprised how often it happens in a group. grown adults or not

I find your views very refreshing. Agreed that Adam being gay should not restrict him on who to shoot photos with - sexy or not. It would be the same for me if straight actors were expected to take on heterosexual roles only. About Miley ... I thought that the public uproar about "that" performance was a sign that most viewers didn't get the message. It was totally over the top and meant to be so. I'm sure opinions differ on this one

Adam had a holiday. Looks like it was fun. That's about the extent of my interest. Rest I could care less about.

As an artist and entertainer, Adam should be able to do photos with women if he wants and I loved the Details spread. There were women hanging on him in the Macy ads and Adam looked hot. He has a modeling agent now and I doubt they signed him or will book him only for gay ads. Whatever he does, I hope others will understand, support and accept him in any role HE chooses. Beside, it seems like discrimination in 2016 if he can only do things that match his orientation. Leto and Hanks won Oscars playing a role different from their own sexuality. NPH plays gay and straight roles. No limitations for Adam, imo.
As for his vacation, why would anyone think or want Adam to foot the bill for everyone else? Would that group of guys even want him to do that? If so, will they expect him to do it for the next big vacation also? Yikes!

I also think Adam may have helped pay for the accommodation because he has a more specific need for privacy than his friends. If he wanted to share accommodation with his friends, it would be unfair to make them pay more than they might if they were travelling without Adam.
