I swear, what his team did to him was criminal! In tears! How sad! I too think that his "team" was almost criminal in their neglect of Tim as a person, not a commodity. My prayers are with his poor family.

I am still hoping that Adam's music and talent will take center stage this time. It always seems that his enormous talent is overlooked and takes a backseat. Male LGBT artists don't seem to be doing well right now in the US. Sam's new song is going nowhere. Troye, after all the hoopla, didn't go far. How is going back to the AMA mess helpful to anyone? I think it hurt Adam in the US. Feels like moving backward instead of forward, imo. The media will love to make that the focus again and again and again, instead of looking at how much he has accomplished in a tough and often unfair environment. You seem a bit frustrated. I am too sometimes, but right now I feel really positive about things to come. The AMAs... let's face it, they happened at the beginning of his recording career and they set the tone and pace for his journey, at least here in the US. Adam has no regrets, and I believe him. Big picture. I am glad he has friends that he can laugh and play with and that he is one of the very few who has achieved a certain status - making a more than decent living with what he loves to do. I trust the journey. I didn't think AMAs when I read the article, I thought Album cover as I think it had more lasting impact.

But I wish the gay community would support their own artists more.. Can you imagine if that community acted like the African American Community does in supporting their singers/ actors etc..Success breeds success.. and numbers count. IMHO,If there was widespread support from this community more support and success would follow. Adam was a bit of a,being out ,right away pioneer in the music business,so I think he will always be asked how have things changed,etc. I do agree the gay stuff does get real tiresome and talking about all that Adam has accomplished would be soooo great. He is very famous around the world . If America seems to lag behind, it is what it is ,but it can change BTW Janelle Manae has come out as Queer (bi-sexual)in Rolling Stone magazine... IMHO The more artists who come out, the better for the gay community and the world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEddixS-UoU

JustJared.com @justjared Adam Lambert opens up about being out since #Idol and his new music: www.justjared.com/2018/04/26/adam-lambert-opens-up-about-being-out-since-idol-his-new-solo-music/ … Adam Lambert Opens Up About Being Out Since 'Idol' & His New Solo Music Adam Lambert is looking handsome in a new feature for Wonderland, out now. Here’s what the 36-year-old For Your Entertainment star had to say… On being openly gay: “I have been gay and out of the closet – very loudly so – since I was 18 and I wasn’t in the closet on the show (American Idol) or around anyone. It wasn’t until the show was wrapping up that I realized everyone wanted me to come out, but I was already out! I’ve always been out. It was just never talked about because it had no baring of what I was doing on stage. It’s not like it was a big surprise with my outfits or my looks or my song choices, you know?” On homophobia and LGBQT issues in the industry: “A lot of things were taboo and I got some backlash. It was interesting. But now it’s nine years later and I’m seeing different pop acts come up that are so proud about their sexuality and it doesn’t even seem like it’s a big thing anymore! We’re moving to the other side of it, where it’s the way it always should have been.” On his new solo music: “I think the fans have been waiting long enough, and so have I! I’ve really been trying to explore what I want the sound and subject matter to be. I want it to be authentic and real and something that felt natural for me. Because it’s such a competitive industry, it’s very easy to get lost with producers and songwriters trying to be like ‘this is the trend and this is the sound of the moment’ and all of that’s really cool but it makes you get lost in the game and you lose the heart of what you’re doing. So I’ve been really focused on trying to stay in my own truth in everything and it’s been going really well because now I feel like everything is coming together. Things are really good. I think this year is gonna be really exciting.” For more from Adam, visit WonderlandMagazine.com.

You seem a bit frustrated. I am too sometimes, but right now I feel really positive about things to come. The AMAs... let's face it, they happened at the beginning of his recording career and they set the tone and pace for his journey, at least here in the US. Adam has no regrets, and I believe him. Big picture. I am glad he has friends that he can laugh and play with and that he is one of the very few who has achieved a certain status - making a more than decent living with what he loves to do. I trust the journey. LOL! You are right. After seeing so much praise and love for Adam's talent with all the media attention with QAL. And the focus on him and how wonderful he is, with few qualifiers, it was a false lull. I guess it was wishful thinking on my part that he had crossed a bridge where he is most recognized and acknowledged for his talent. So it is hard that Whenever he is ready to release new music, you can almost pull out the exact same interviews with the exact same focus every single time. It brings you back to the reality of what they are most interested in when it comes to Adam and his music. He has been a great representative for his community but would have an even greater impact with more US success. But I am going to step back and chill and just enjoy the ride. Ha. I think it is never wrong to voice an opinion and spur a discussion and I very much appreciate your posts I think the reality of being a gay pop star can't be quite escaped. But, if I look at it from a different angle, I think Adam has a solid chance to make a new connection with audiences who might wonder what he's been up to. Talking about his musical journey and his emotions, and making himself a bit vulnerable could be a genuine basis for new music to come!

twitter.com/Z108net/status/989605398251360256Z108 @z108net When Is Adam Lambert's Next Album Coming Out? dlvr.it/QQvvdm Could the next Adam Lambert album finally be inching closer? The "Ghost Town" singer hasn't released a record since 2015's The Original High, and though fans have been getting plenty of the American Idol alum during his live treks with Queen, they're also getting antsy for new music. And Lambert, apparently, is ready to appease the masses. During a recent interview with Wonderland Magazine, he said fans have been "waiting long enough" for new music, explaining that he's already been working on his next project. "I’ve really been trying to explore what I want the sound and subject matter to be,” he told the outlet. “I want it to be authentic and real and something that felt natural to me. Because it’s such a competitive industry.” Based on his release pattern, Lambert should have an album out this year: For Your Entertainment, Trespassing, and The Original High were all released within three years of each other. But from the sounds of it, it doesn't seem likely that he'll have a full-length ready in 2018. He could, however, have a single, and has already promised just that: In February, he teased a "yummy" new record on Twitter and said new music will be out this year. "Probably written about 35ish [songs], he wrote, responding to a follower's question. "Not far enough in the process to pick a single. Still lots to be done." Without more details, it's hard to guess when the next Lambert record might arrive, but the end of 2019 seems like a feasible target. Until then, keep your ears peeled for a new song.
