Radio is the usually way to get the massive exposure needed to propel pop sales, but this did not happen for Adam, and I see no reason why all of a sudden radio would change course and embrace the third single after two that went nowhere. That leaves repeated appearance on a widely watched TV show as another vehicle for the massive exposure needed for sales. This is why I have been walking around with a nervous knot in my stomach over Idol's flirtation with Adam and the judgeship. If someone knows of another avenue that provides this kind of exposure, I would love to know about it.

Anyone who has seen/heard Nick Jonas in the 25th Anniversary Concert of Les Miz knows he has no business on a judging panel of a singing talent show. But then that didn't stop J-Lo or Brittany from being cast as judges.

It is easy to remember the hits that people perform on Idol and The Voice. But many songs performed on both shows do not become hits. Xtina performed "You Lost Me" on Idol, it did not chart. She performed "Fighter" on The Voice, it peaked at #20. Oddly, it was a big hit outside the US. Yeah, I didn't understand that either. "Figher" was a song I kept on near-continuous loop for months. Its still probably my absolute favorite Xtina song.

It wasn't going to jump back on the charts in 2012 and become a hit again!

The Jonas brother is so not in right now. He doesn't represent anything about Pop right now. That person would be Adam, not a Jonas brother! And Brad Paisley does not mean "No Adam." I have thought all along that there would be a country judge. That doesn't exclude Adam. The thing is, I think Randy is out or they are going to 4 judges. Either way, whether Adam gets it or not, he will be fine. He's got too many things going to let one thing bring him down. I so agree with the highlighted statement - Plus the Jonas brother and his wife are starting a reality show, so I doubt he'd have time for both...plus, who is he ??? - I mean is he famous now ??? That is Kevin, the married one. Nick is the one they are mentioning for the possible judging job. There are three of them! LOL :D

Not that it matters to me but if we are tracking minority status ......

Mys*&@^#r, what did Adam say in the Sacramento interview, and what were the UK tweets? I was at the lake last week and out of the loop. And I agree with the post above, a new single is exciting. But, it needs to be heard or the excitement will be short-lived and replaced with the same old frustrations. eta---no gloomy predictions, but if a single is to be successful there has to be a plan. And if radio isn't an option, then there needs to be something else. Here is the Sacramento interview. A little box pops up on your screen, there is a commercial, then scroll down to Adam Lambert Interview. link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid791221704001?bckey=AQ~~,AAAAAFqnSZA~,mtHzAXuFGnSyLo3tUshuarE5ax5zOkYW&bclid=1847335599&bctid=1747311130001 The tweets may be harder for me to find, but I'll bet gelly saved them. Maybe we can get them tomorrow when she wakes up. Sarah H @popledge This must be Pop! Proud of TW and 1D success - long time Thatter.

Northants · www.popledge.co.ukSarah H @popledge What what...we are hearing rumours that Adam Lambert has signed on for American Idol!! Sarah H @popledge Re Adam Lambert nothing official yet just rumblings...would make sense though..: ) Sarah H @popledge I'd better not say who told me in case he is wrong..he works for London PR company though for those who asked...so fingers crossed hey! Sarah H @popledge @shadylady_1031 @sroczka79 I'm not saying it is true till AI announce it!Sarah H @popledge@shoshannastone thanks for the follow ; )
Sarah H @popledge Just to clarify our source isn't from Adam's team - I don't want anyone thinking it was an official leak. Keep praying! Lolly__23 Lolly__23 @popledge Keep praying? You mean you've just been guessing and don't know any more then the rest of the internet rumors about Adam + Idol? Sarah H @popledge Lolly__23 no I mean that nothing is official..
