Part of Adam's allure for me has been his voice ,his personality and his gorgeous face....I miss seeing more of that beautiful face.. sigh Exactly. My only wish is that he does not hide his face with so much of the heavy dark beard. It makes him look much older than he is and too much like many others. I think the long hair is great but when mixed with a heavy beard, it seems too distracting and he looks less beautiful. Shallow I know but real. But he looked gorgeous at the Oscars from the front view. I haven't enjoyed looking at a lot of the pictures lately. The Glaad Award look was not one of his best. Reminded me too much of many of those country artists, who all seem to be in love with heavy facial hair and the mountain man look. So the look is not my favorite (prefer him with less facial hair) but I don't doubt that he takes himself and his career seriously. Looking forward to his new music and the QAL tour. Love the long hair but hoping for a facial trim. And I am not telling him what to do, lol.

Who knows why musicians seem to aim for downright fugly at times...it seems to be an occupational hazard. I remember the first time I saw Bob Dylon...I could not understand why he seemed to actually try to see how ugly he could look...on tv....on video's...who knows??? Why does Jared Leto cover up that beautiful face? ditto at times Brad Pitt looks a wreck...so do a number of beautiful people..on red carpets etc....but it clearly is a thing and so far, Adam has always cleaned up for public presentation and if he decides not to...well...it is his face to hide and not our job to tell him not to. We here all have our favorites to so there is that....I LOVED that silver....thought he looked sinfully gorgeous .... and will gladly go to any and every show I can afford to....truth tells... hey...this too shall pass..... I agree some artists will try something new to diviate from the pack of same old same old. Adam is ahead of time. He is not afraid to look different. He is not aiming for the beauty but for a refreshing and an interesting look.
On the other hand I think Adam prettiness can intimidate people. Lot of dudes did not liked Adam because of his beauty - sexiness. Adam is maybe trying to look more like "a dude" to cater to the male audience. That way he is not threatning to them.

I've been a fan for 10 years now, and it really is great advice...things change constantly in Adamland...one of the reasons it's so much fun, IMO. And that's coming from a person that HATES change in her personal life lol. I live vicariously through Adam. Haha, same here! I'm a creature of habit. To chime in on the "look" discussion, I'd like to point out that Adam is not currently on tour, press tour and isn't really actively promoting anything. In other words, he's in his downtime, private time. Calling his look when he's "off" disrespectful to the Queen brand because of the way he looks like at a party is very reaching, IMO. He cleaned up just fine for the Oscars and the GLAD awards. If we need to judge his "look", shouldn't we at least wait until the rehearsals start. 🙈 Totally fair! Dropping more new music in May puts him 'back on the clock' so to speak :D

With less hair (facial and/or from the scalp), one focuses on a person's face. More hair tends to make you see the hair before the face. With someone as handsome as Adam, I think many don't like the distraction of a lot of hair. Conversely, if someone is not attractive, hair can enhance that person's appearance.
Adam, however, is a Master at presenting himself vocally and visually.
So excited to see what's next!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll settle for better self Why do you think your opinion of his better self is Adams. I find that Adam is very self conscious of his looks and can't imagine him presenting himself in a sloppy or unkempt way just because you think it so. I believe he takes every look seriously and he may just be ready to have this look. He does change it up and I'll just go with the flow even though this look is a favorite of mine!

I'm gonna try and not visualize last nite's look as his promo or QAL look. We all have had our fav Adam looks thruout the past 10 years...and right now ain't one of my favs. I think what gets to us/me is we fan observers know how good he can look and what styles flatter him the most in hair styles and clothing styles etc. Doesn't mean we love him any less...we just know how great he can present himself when he's "on" performing or promoting or interviewing, etc. I'm gonna be like LindaG and reserve judgement until he's out of his down time and out in public performing/promoting. But I must admit....looks like the beard isn't going anywhere and the hair is still growing out, so I'm trying to keep any expectations for a new/different look for professional Adam in 2019 in check...lol. Having said all that....he's gonna do what he's gonna do. He's commited to "changing it up"... it's in his DNA....sometimes I love the changes, sometimes not so much. But the love for the person and his talent never changes.

I absolutely adore Adam’s current look! My only regret is in knowing it won’t last long. Did I say regret??!! Can’t think of the right word to use except that it’s one of the things I love most about following Adam - he is ever changing and evolving - here today, gone tomorrow. So, I’ll enjoy this phase for as long as it lasts!

Just gonna throw my two penneth in for what it's worth, there's some looks I like more than others and some I've been taken aback by slightly like the red hair lol but even the most weird looks make me smile, I just find Adam funny and his ever changing looks and style are well just Adam, he's unique and IMO one of those people who does things because of how he feels in the moment even if he later looks back and say's what the hell was I thinking as he's mentioned a few times. End of the day no matter what looks have come and gone over the years he's still the same amazingly talented guy with a gorgeous personality and there's no look that could put me off following him or wanting to see him live.

Angelkrash started a picture thread back in 2011 called "All the pretty you can handle" here: www.adamtopia.com/board/26/adam-photos-gifs-images. She posted photos for about a year then reihmer took over. But since mid-2012, wal has consistently and quietly kept it up to date. She has even split the last four years out by year. Here is the latest for 2019: www.adamtopia.com/thread/4954/pic-thread-pretty-handle-2019Wal, if there were a goddess of faithfulness, you would be her reincarnation Anyway, I was going to suggest a little game where we post two photos, one each of our least and most favorite looks using the "All the pretty you can handle" threads but I changed my mind. There are 1,638 pages. That's not photos, that is pages full of photos. That is more pages than all the hours that I have been awake this whole year so far (approximately 1596). So, I am going to pass on the game. We would have to schedule a task like that for the future or we would all die of pretty overload and then there would be no more Adamtopia.
