Kind of upset that so many YouTube views did not count. So we have to spread our views around beyond YouTube, right? That's what I've been doing.
Bottom line, we need to view more.
And I guess Spotify is the best way to help Adam. We stream as much as humanly possible. I've been doing that.

Sounds to me like Kelly said, "American Idol launched TWO superstars." Then she mentioned and sowed pictures of Carrie, Jennifer and Adam. That's three. Does that mean Adam's not one of the superstars? And it does seem like Simon says, "Love him," after Adam's name is mentioned. I think he has always liked Adam a lot. I know it may seem picky, but if Kelly said AI launched TWO superstars and then mentioned THREE, I'm a bit PO'd. Guess I'm just having a bad day. Sounds to me like she said "HUGE" superstars ...

Not a diss or snark, I simply have no clue as I'm simply not into that kind of music - but does anyone outside of the US (fine, North America) has any fux to give about Carrie Underwood?

I hear “...HUGE superstars”, where you hear “...two superstars..”

She said "launched huge superstars", not two superstars.

She's doing fairly well in Canada and Australia and had some minor success in the UK and Ireland, but that's it. Almost nobody here in the Netherlands knows her I think. Almost everybody knows WWFM and/or Ghost Town though.

Carrie has sold about a gazillion records, so she's definitely THE success story for AI, along with Kelly herself.
I'm just happy that AI has decided to include Adam in their little circle of success stories.
ETA: Am I wrong in thinking that Adam is pretty much the only international star of AI, or are there others? I don't watch AI, so I don't know who else is international from that show.

Just ridiculous, isn't it. Seems most are transferred thru "Flash Seats" at the last minute to your phone. Not sure how that works or how safe it is, etc. I randomly bought 2 tickets to the El Rey on the Amex presale yesterday (and then decided I would go lol) - it was at 11:20 am pacific time - well after they started the 10:00 am presale period. I had tried twice before but it said No Tickets Available, but then poof it worked. Then I tried all day to buy 2 more for a friend, but never had any luck again. I got a confirmation email right away, but no tickets appeared in my Flash Seats app on my phone. Finally, I downloaded AXS app on my phone, still no tickets. Then late at night, I got an email saying my tickets were now in my AXS app, and they are - 1 barcode for both tickets apparently.
My friend who lives close to the El Rey gave up trying and bought several off a reseller site - all the resellers have them. And they were about double for her, which is not bad. But we have no idea what kind of show this will be, how many songs etc. and we know it will be standing room only. As usual, ticket buying was a cluster****. Sorry to all that didn't get a ticket and can't afford the reseller site .
ETA: The event starts at 9 pm per my confirmation email.
I haven't been lucky with El Rey, but will try again tomorrow through the AXS app. If unlucky again, I will have to buy from one of the resellers. At least the prices aren't up exponentially yet. Not sure if we already have a members thread for this, but I wanted to let those interested know that I just booked the "Best Western Date Tree Hotel" in Indio. It is less than 3 miles from Fantasy Springs and offers a shuttle service. Plus, there's free breakfast, and it is cancellable within 24hours.
