These drag shows are always so wacky and wild. It's a world I never knew much about till Adam. I always love learning more about people. Sure looked he Adam and Oliver were having a good time!
Interesting that Adam seems to be looking for place to live in NYC, at least for when he's there, which seems to be quite often. He has lots of connections there now. I can't imagine him moving out of LA, though. I think LA will always he his home base.

Yes, this is a surprise! He does love NYC and he does tend to go back and forth from there to LA quite bit. Nice to have a place of your own to stay in. Love how the Post listed all his recent activities. Nice for non-fans to know what he's been doing.

OMG! It IS Strange Fruit. I went and listened to Billie Holiday's original 1945 performance. So profound and sad song about the lynching of black men.

Douglas Mills sure made a huge impression, and that is VERY important on Idol. Being different makes an impact. That song reminds me of Billie Holiday's Strange Fruit, not in sound but in tone and content.
Love Adam's playing around mouthing those lyrics and voices. He's so great at it.
Looking forward to the Rise Up Whih the Arts event on the 27th! Hope tickets are selling briskly for the Florida tour!

Yes, he was in Kinky Boots. I saw a great professional production of it last year. It's a great show!

Nice that Billy Porter gave a shout out to Adam for coming to his show. I had heard of Billy but I didn't know too much about him. I googled him and he is a very active actor, singer, advocate, etc. He is gay and is married to his partner. Cool when Adam gets a side mention like that.
I loved Adam so much on Glee. And yes, his could have been ongoing cast member. Nice that he was considered one of the best guest actors in the show.
Enjoyed the BBC "Sounds of the '90s" radio interviews, too.

Oops1! I think you're right. I stand corrected. He was such a cutey. Then and now and always. Love those two proud grandmas.

Always loved that pic of Adam with this Grandmas. Adam has a pretty large extended family, if I remember correctly. Aunts, uncles, cousins. Grandma on the left must be Leila's mom. Grandma on right looks like Eber's. I think the photo was when he was in Fiddler on the Roof.
Adam seems to be in NYC, if he went into that gay club. Thought he was headed back to LA, but I guess he has more to do in NYC.

Yeah, I was on a talk show and walked to the couch kind of awkwardly with his one leg held stiff. And he sat with it held out a bit straight, too. Glad it was nothing serious. I'm not so sure about TeamArmpit, but I am definitely on TeamNose, TeamEyes, TeamHair and TeamSmile. He has such a perfect face profile. Like a Greek god.
SophieB, I finally got the Fan Club to work for me. I know some people never had any trouble at all, but I sure did, and I did everything according to the directions. But it works fine now, and it's better than the old version. I don't blame you for being frustrated.
And thanks, Secretary Pete for speaking out about the absurdity of the Don't Say Gay thing. Sheesh.

We watched John Oliver at our house last night. His segment on ticket-buying was superb. He covered so many details about it. I always dread buying tickets online. It's stressful even when it goes smoothly. Just the anticipation of a problem makes by heart pound. Hope all of you who are being tickets for Adam's shows are having good luck.
That dog video is hilarious! Some dogs are "saviors" and some are "chewers." Looks like Pharaoh has the savior gene. And Jelly is the chewer. LOL
