adamtopia.com/post/900892Wow Queen nr 2 in top 100 artists on Billboard. The hype is showing in the charts. Not easy to beat the extremely SM active kpop acts and second only to Ariana who had a huge scandal around Grammys.

Tbh, i hope Adam gravitates more to a Rockstar black leather ensemble...not sure the audience will "get" the crown or the golden cape...like one reviewer said...in the course of the concert Adam kind of earned his license for the over the top outfits and people bought it, but with only a few minutes that could proof hard...jmo I agree that a rock star leather ensemble would be a good choice. On the other hand, I like the idea that the crown would take care of a possibly messy hair situation. Now, if I picture the crown with leather pants... I would take it! Haha I'd love the leather but imho he might go with classy suit look like he did on all the latest performances or when he dressed for GLAAD or BBC Strictly, Kennedy, Elvis or BBC in 2014. Some suit with a rock edge but not too edgy. They broadcast for global audience. I do hope we get more than 3 outfits at least though.

I feel like EMA 2011 seriously. Only this time we know they are performing for sure. GLOBAL AUDIENCE! And this after Brian cleverly denied it and put us off guard! I'm so excited!

Just danced a boogie on my lunch break😆 Could not help it. The energy! I wanted to wait till they post a HQ on youtube but could not help it. Thanks to everyone who posted the vids. Didn't have time to watch any others. Adam on primetime tv is always great to see.

Yes, that's very nice. They both sound similar. Wonder how they got together. She must have good management. She's pretty too...and that helps...lol. Harry's people invited her to open for Harry because he has been a fan of Kacey since 2014 But Grammy does indeed gets one at least exposure. I hope Adam's new music will get a nod at least. Especially in the Vocal Performance category if not albums, song etc twitter.com/harry_styles/status/511789938396762112?lang=en

It’s all killing me: On the large scale - he didn’t go classical route, with proper training he would’ve captured the opera world (and I would’ve found him that way), but I fully understand he doesn’t like/want it On the tiny scale- he didn’t finish the aria, given the glory notes are at the end (Vincera, Vincenro) but there is a chorus bar there so he couldn’t do it...especially given the a cappella performance anyway, here is the glorious rendition by Domingo (because I am a Domingo person, not a Pavarotti one) Had the urge to post a video of the 3 tenors video myself Still one of the best things that ever happened in music history. Domingo, Carreras & Pavarotti Had Adam gone into opera I would have found him there too I think.

I am not going to jump full throttle into the fray as I don't feel like defending my fan status or my right to have an opinion...and I have to rush off to a client. But I feel I would only be honest to myself if I did not comment on a couple of things. Cognitive dissonance is a very uncomfortable feeling and I suspect many of us are feeling a little of that right now. I certainly am. There is a reason the "metoo" movement took off and it is because well known, sometimes important people, were finally feeling supported enough and brave enough to come forward with their complaints and histories. The reason they did not feel supported earlier was that GOOD, CARING AND POWERFUL people sat by and did nothing...or even supported the well known abusers and predators.... as the saying goes, roughly, All it takes for evil to thrive is for good people to do nothing. When an individual is 'known' by insiders throughout an industry for being abusive then why do good people continue to hire them and support them. At what point do we finally 'believe' the victims! We know how difficult it is to "prove" a crime that is for the most part, done in private and that people are inclined to internalize. When the pay off is not money that can be proved, but acceptance and work...less easy to "prove" withheld for lack of compliance. I would never in a million years tweet or any other form of communicate my feelings to Adam or Brian. But I also really am disappointed that Bri and Roger continue to support Singer when ignorance is no longer a viable excuse for them...though given Bri's throughness and acumen in business, it is supremely unlikely that he was not aware of Singer's reputation....yet the went with him anyway. But that is all history and can be understood...but the 'innocent till proven guilty' slam for this sort of crime is unfair. If Singer gets the credit of the doubt...what do the countless victims get....'cake?'/// gotta go...running late....go ahead and beat me up now....I still adore them all, but I am a little disappointed...that is all... Thank you for you eloquent post. Completely agree with you about cognitive dissonance. I also think we know little of what is going on BTS and what people potentially can do or can't do as there is a lot of legal stuff like nda's and injunctions and such IMHO.

While I fully understand the need for the MeToo movement (I'm also a member), I'm fast losing patience with the careless disregard for anybody that happens to be in the path of the destruction of the offenders. By all means, go after Weinstein, Spacey, Singer, etc., but why the need to punish and/or destroy anybody that's ever been in their orbit? What do the actors in BR have to do with something Singer may have done? I'm also more than a bit concerned about the swift condemnation of somebody whether or not there is proof...and yes, I'm still pissed about the swift ouster of Franken...no investigation, only phony, made up accusations. That's now how the law is supposed to work. Some of this reeks of vigilante justice. To be clear, I'm in no way saying that Singer is innocent, only saying leave the innocent people around him alone.

Not interested, but I‘ve just been on twitter. BoRhap was nominated for 5 Oscars yesterday. Today „news“ make the rounds about Singer and all these old accusations. I even saw a Glambert calling for a boycott of the movie. The actors, Brian and Roger get attacked on social media for working with Singer. It’s mad! My opinion: This is a very well aimed online campaign to attack BoRhap. And it looks like it will work. Even Malek gets fire and is mocked for his interview today, where he denied, that he had known about the Singer-allegations, when he got his role. Apparently the choice of Singer as the director is now backfiring big times. The best about it is, that the film is now more successful than anyone has hoped for. This won’t hurt too much. If I wasn't waiting for the other shoe to drop since last year & rumors only begun to spread. What people don't ask is do people actually know (as Rami said) and the other is - How much do Brian, Roger,the cast & crew and Adam have a say on who is the director and how much it was the studio execs who decide upon who is going to direct a movie. Yeah of course it is timed to Oscars & Golden Globes etc. What they could do is similar to what a lot have done with any of Metoo an example www.theguardian.com/film/2018/jan/16/timothee-chalamet-i-dont-want-to-profit-from-my-work-on-woody-allens-film
