Yes...that is one image from the grouping that that I could not get "a jpg" by clicking on inspect---so I was not able to reproduce it. As it is a slow thread day....if anyone could put it on the thread I would like to save it. Thanks so much. As an aside --the closet is wider than the mirror would indicate. The roofline shows that there is a 2 ft or so ?? extension of the exterior wall of the house, that starts after the window, and is the full length of that closet.

Here is the background info on Max. He was never an abused or stray rescue. Lucky Adam! Note though, that he is a Chihuahua/Basenji mix, as was noted on another site. Max is a 2 1/2 yrs old Chihuahua. He is an owner surrender after the owner's landlord wanted the dog removed. He is neutered, current with shots and micro-chipped. He's 16 pounds and LOVES Children ! He's cat friendly, dog friendly but LOVES children the most !I think this is a different dog. This dog is still available for adoption and is really a Chilhuahua based on the photos. Here is the link: www.walkmehomerescue.org/copy-of-bandit-1 Adam's Max -- a Basenji-Chilhuahua mix -- was also at Walk With Me Rescue Group. @graciejane posted pictures of Max-Pharaoh but the pages for him are now gone and dead links. Some of the photos posted in previous threads and on Twitter are of this dog, not Adam's dog. Q3, I'm sorry, but there was only one Max with this shelter. They used also some of these pictures on their FB and also on the petfinder page. That he looks different here is because he seemed to be slightly underfed or maybe a bit scared. If you look at Adam's snapchats from yesterdays you can also see that it's the same dog as in those the chihuahua charicteristics are coming through more clearly. The rescue group simple hasn't updated their page yet as Max is on audition. And the breed is called different in all places. Sometimes Chihuahua, sometimes Basenji and also sometimes the Basenji/Chihuahua mix. ETA: Pulled this from twitter/FB. This is a saved page from google. It shows the same info as above and some of the same pictures, but with the addition of Basenji/Chihuahua mix. Also some of the newer pics are included.

I have never seen those real estate pictures before, gives you a better idea of the house, so thank you! But YES as Adam I'd be freaked out by this^^...so people know his adress on here? Can I get some of that action? *lol* No, seriously, I LOVE the big windows, how much light there is in that house. I am a bit jealous, it does have style.
I'm also looking forward to news, but I'm trying to be patient. Adam has worked so much and spoiled us, he deserves a bit of a break.

Actually I agree with him, and he clearly described why he thinks that - most singers don't like to promote or support somebody better than them. This of course does not apply to Adam for at least two reasons: 1. He loves and supports other artists in particular and people in general 2. Nobody is better than him anyway Simon was throwing shade at The Voice & Co. which have artists as judges who are there to promote themselves, not find and nurture talent... Plus he opened a door for Paula as an exception, so if the interviewer knew who Adam is, he could have asked about him, and would have probably received another exception. IMHO. Agree, I see no issue with what he is saying as it is just human nature in general to not want someone else to beat you at your own game. A solo artist has to be pretty determined and competitive to be successful. Interestingly, I noticed he used she in all his descriptive of a singer judge, thought that was a bit telling. Like most of us here, I am very emotionally invested in Adam. Quite honestly, it IS a risk to openly promote someone else in a profession that is so competitive and cutthroat. When Adam was Isaiah's mentor, he put all in energy into Isaiah's success on XF. It paid off for Isaiah. And Adam got very positive feedback for his judging/mentoring skills, which helped give him good media coverage and visibility. But it's possible that Isaiah could become a giant superstar. Who knows? Maybe, maybe not. It can be risky to promote others when you're constantly trying to stay alive and relevant in the business yourself. I see Simon's point. My focus is always on Adam's continued rise in his career. Period. Adam once said, "There's room for everybody." I'm not so sure that's true.

Have no clue on the insides of Adam's apartment and it just amazes me what people know about a house they were never in, I could never work all that out. Now as far as Pharaoh is concerned, I just envy what these cute ears of his are going to hear over the years. That starts with that adorable 'talk-to-baby'-voice that Adam puts on when talking to him, to the singing that he is bound to hear over the years. Those are quite a pair of gorgeous as well as lucky ears. Just imagine, he might have heard a new single already or at least an album track. But I read Basenji are not talking. Adam seems to ensure that one in all his friends. For the two-legged variety, I am glad it is so, but to even get a quiet four-legged friend who doesn't talk, is certainly pushing it, Adam. In other news, while it is a slow day, Simon Cowell just gave an interview, where he declared that singers cannot be good judges on talent shows. Yup, I know. The guy is sometimes full of sh*t in my opinion. In the interview he says this (listen from 27:10 onwards), and then he at the same time hires singers for the shows he himself produces. I mean, I am glad he hired Adam, and I don't think that the argument he is making either applies to Adam or is valid in general for that matter, but I guess it sounded smart in the interview and he could boast about his A&R experience. So go figure. If you start around 27:10 you'll hear what he says. That is an excellent interview. I watched the whole thing and have taken a few bits of inspiration.

Graciejane and kryptoman,
sorry, but I have to disagree with you.
The generic statement about singers is just not true. Paula is not the only exception, Adam is not the only exception, the statement or opinion is just not fair or correct.
Examples first: Both Guy Sebastian and MelB had the interests of their candidates at heart, did not feel threatened in their own careers. Maybe it fits for Iggy a bit, but even there I would say, she was more threatened by being overall in-over-her-head on a singing show, rather than not wanting well for candidates.
At the same time, there are producers and A&R guys who mostly are promoting their own sorry selves on these shows, Randy Jackson being probably a very good example for that, imo.
I think that the producers of the actual reality shows, the TC execs themselves, have begun to put more and more emphasis on the famous judges rather than the contestants, and have probably destroyed their own format in the process.
But I don't think that the singers are primarily to blame. I don't like Adam Levine or even Christina Aguilera for that matter, but saying that they don't have the interests of their proteges at heart, just does not sit right with me. I don't think this is true.
I do think that there are a few singers who have behaved selfishly. Mariah Carrie was all about promoting herself, and a huge problem for idol and its reputation. JLo does not have a problem with a great singer, but has a problem with women who are better looking than her. These are individual problems centered around that person, rather than the career they are coming from in general, as there are just as many or more examples on the other side of the argument.
By basically challenging all singer's integrity, their goals, or their narcissism, Simon projected his own self-centered ethics onto the singers, and gets it wrong imo.
It is just not true that it is the singers who have brought down these shows with self centered behavior. it is greedy producers who changed the format. Cowell is wanting to re-write reality TV legacy or his own, imo, which seems to be the main purpose of this rather odd interview in the first place, if you listen to it as a whole. And Dan Rather does not help, as he does not have the ability to dig deeper and Simon gets away with anything he says. Simon always has some great points to make, and he does so in this interview as well, but even way back on idol, whenever he made assumptions about other people's motivations or goals, he tended to get it wrong, and it is no different here.

Okay. Solarium is hereby known as the LIVING ROOM - fabric taupe-ish curved couches furry and gray geometric pillows corner fire place room is DEN - possibly brown leather upstairs small room is SMOKING ROOM - gray leather and paisley pillow down stairs yet to be seen room is MEDIA ROOM agree? YES!!! But we don't want him smoking. Can it be something more new age like crystal, yoga, zen, incense or something. But I'm also going to tell you that Living Room, Den, and Media room are not going to help the rest of us none layout junkies figure out which room you are talking about. I would be better off calling them all the same thing and just adding a floor to them to distinguish. Main Living Room, Main Den, 2nd floor LIving room, basement media room. And I miss solarium it sounds like a room with sky windows. Save

It must be that there was a duplicate page created in error and it was never deleted (Chihuahua version). It is still online. Perhaps the black collar photos are older than the blue collar photos and he gained weight in between?
