WTF - limped wrist and tons of makeup????? Pisses me off out of an otherwise great review that's not worth even getting pissed about IMO. Adam was decidedly flamboyant last night and the wrist was working it. Then it's good nobody is claiming that YOU should get pissed. Likewise, other people will not tolerate homophobia in any form, even if it's payola for a decent review. In my opinion it's much more outrageous to tell a child "your singing sucks" versus "you're a limp wristed excuse for a boy". And GLAAD agrees with me. Not everyone is cut out to try and improve society some people are happy to flail their lives away. I don't think either side needs lectures or advise on their actions. www.glaad.org/actions/testosteroneproblem |

"Limp-wristed" is a slur. —adj.Slang (disparaging and offensive). 1. effeminate. 2. soft; flabby; ineffectual. I don't find that an accurate description of Adam. "Offensive." By definition. Writer-dude needs to choose better words. yes but not EVERYTHING needs to be taken on like it's an sign of raging homophobia. I think that term gets thrown around WAY to much within this fandom and it really dilutes the meaning and seriousness of the issue. It's like the boy who cried wolf....keep screaming homophobia and soon no one cares when REAL homophobia takes place. Besides that Adam was very much working the wrist action last night. It made me laugh because I've never seen him quite so "out there" with his mannerisms like that before. |

Finally checking in and getting caught up ... I see there are some upset people here.
I want to apologize for my comment last night about Adam not taking his coat off because he 'must have a bad body image (as he's often said about himself) and doesn't realized how hot he looks in a tank top.' I know this garnered a few 'don't be negative' comments. He was complaining about it being so hot and sticky that he had to take his shoes off ... I thought this was a reasonable suggestion. I'm so very sorry, I didn't mean to upset anyone.

I had a great time at the concert last night. I enjoyed meeting several members of this forum and chatting before the concert. I thought that Adam's energy level was great and that he owned the stage with his moves and confidence. The back up singers allow him to improvise which he loves to do. You can't change things up much with backing tracks. I agree with mys*&@^#r that the sound mix was the best I have heard at an Adam concert. The banks of colored lights behind him really added to the performance. I think that when people are constantly talking about the occasional perceived off key moment of the back up singers or something else that was not perfect it just increases the negativity on this forum. I think that is why we have lost many fun posters like Chunky.Actually I think the very opposite. The only negativity I see are posters complaining about negativity. People (okay..me) are afraid to post anything which might be construed as negative even though WE ALL KNOW THAT ANY MEMBER HERE ADORES AND SUPPORTS ADAM FUCKING LAMBERT. Fun is not restricted to puppies and rainbows. :-/ So adam hits a few (very few) bum notes. Who cares? Don't know why we can't mention it. But that's just it, he didn't hit a few bum notes. If someone wasn't there, unless it is something as obvious as that IIHY where he acknowledged he was singing in 6 different keys, I find it disheartening to see so much criticism using just You Tubes. It totally took me by surprise after being at a wonderful concert last night. Not gonna lie, it has made me not want to be here all day! :( |

I don't think either side needs lectures or advise on their actions. www.glaad.org/actions/testosteroneproblemare you denying that Adam was much more flamboyant last night than he's been in the past? The writer could have and should have found a different way to express his observation but it wasn't inaccurate in terms of how Adam performed. Did you see the "werk bitch" gestures? LOL that wrist was getting a work out that's for sure. Like I said (and it's only my opinion) throwing around homophobia at every turn desensitizes people to real cases of homophobia. asking people to be PC 24/7 so as not to be labeled homophobic seems a bit extreme to me. Was the guy biased against Adam in any way? Did the review reflect a homophobic opinion (other than a poorly worded couple of words)? IMO no, it didn't. |
