These were before NBC covered the Clsing...mostly Brits....Needs to be posted again
@merrycello You are not alone in that reaction. This is a sample of non-Adam fans' tweets:
CLOSING CEREMONIES:
jianghomeshi While the world watches, Brian May puts on a wee rock guitar clinic during the #closingceremonies. This is why Britain has cool cred.
barrabest Seriously?! Please not Jessie J as Freddie Mercury! Where's @adamlambert? #closingceremony
arjanwrites: I know what Adam Lambert fans are aching for right now.
heatworld Somewhere, Jay from 5ive is putting a drawing pin into a Jessie J poster #closingceremony
Eddieheman Jessie J really? Why didn't they just make @adamlambert an honorary Brit for the night?
dazgale: If I was Brian May, I'd smash Jessie over the head with a guitar.
iamdanieljlacey I love Jessie J, but @adamlambert should have sung with Queen on the #OlympicsClosingCeremony! Quite disappointed he isn't there :(
compoZer_ “@mcampbell1989: I do love myself some queen!! Should of had adam lambert as always as lead singer but he is american! #trust
Popdust Seriously, Adam Lambert's collective fans are probably crossing the English Channel with bayonets right now.
Eefs_KOL And its not that she's singing for Freddie its coz she's awful I saw queen live with Adam Lambert and it was good.. she was not
Titchyhill @ikealord She just ruined the whole.thing.... I could have handled ot.bein Adam Lambert seen as he's the one touring with Queen....
craigmaran I know Adam Lambert is American but he has done a good job at all of Queen's live performances so far....oh well.
dazgale Oh @adamlambert. You were missed tonight.
ZoliErdos Rule #1: There is only one Queen and one Freddy Mercury. #2: @adamlambert was better w. Queen than Jessie J. #3: There are only 2 rules
Matt_Kendo: Queen you have Adam Lambert. F*CKING USE HIM!
FMCV_Official: Jessie J does in 5 minutes what the IRA could never do. Kill Queen.
iOwnBritney Queen with Adam Lambert Sounds Better ¢¾ #OlympicClosingCeremony
Chelle_MARS Remember when Adam Lambert sang with Queen? That was epic. Oh, and MCR too!!!
xxSkedz24xx Why didn't they have Adam Lambert or Paul Rodgers singing with Queen? Jessie J is an insult to Freddie, the other 2 at least do him justice.
CarrotyCarrots @jasoncoles52 Not good! They should've had Adam Lambert (no-one would've noticed he's not British!)
SepiasSecret Damn straight! RT
purplegirll: not hating but from twitter I think Adam needs to thank Jessi J for illustrating just how fantastic he is
TheGomezinator Freddie was greatly missed tonight, the only other person who can do "We Will Rock You" justice is Adam Lambert.

chunkeymonkey81 This is probably one of the best reverse PR moves EVAH
Mitla96 Rule of show biz: Don't be the act after Adam Lambert.
samlansky I guess not everyone was excited about Jessie J's performance in the Closing Ceremony.
pic.twitter.com/POgWvzb7 chunkeymonkey81 The BEST part abt the "no adam?!" tweets is they are mostly UK/EU tweets bc it hasn't aired in US yet. Huzzah!
DanHemming Closing ceremony has been ok. Not a patch on the opening though, just don't ever put Jessie J in Queen again.
missprofanity I just woke from a nightmare. Jessie J was on stage with Brian May, murdering a Queen classic. Thank God it was only a dream. What?
kidrauhlcity I'm sorry Jessie J but Adam Lambert still slays singing with Queen k.
JordanMeehan: WHY?!?! @ QueenWillRock

Glad you liked her. Interesting thing my DH said. He is not an Adam stan but did attend one of the London concerts with me. He said that it looked like Queen was just going through the motions. The joy that they had when they performed with Adam was missing. I also noticed a picture where Brian is playing with his back to Jessie while she is kneeling. I found it strange after all the interaction I saw between Adam and Brian. DH also said something else interesting. He said he thinks that they picked Jessie because there is probably no British male who could pull it off. I said "How about George Michael?" and he said, well, he is getting up there in age. My DH is a Brit, BTW.
