Maybe he wasn't thrilled about the giving head tweet. I doubt Sauli had anything to so with the deleted tweets. Adam deleted a lot more than just the "getting head" tweet. Looked like a more broad-based attempt to remove anything too controversial or revealing from his feed. I'm still thinking that the reason was more likely professional than personal.  Although given that none of us actually know Adam or Sauli, it's all speculation anyway.  Maybe, but I still think he was not delighted. I would not like to wake up in morning, and find out that 1.5 M people have been tweeted to from my bed, including comments of my sleeping and references to private part of my life :D. Sauli has several times commented in in his Tutkas about people sharing their private lives, so he does not like it. But it's not that deep, and I AM HAPPY THAT ADAM DID SHARE, so poor Sauli. That's what it takes to live with Adam without filter.  |

Hope this is not too OT, but I ran across more about this today. Buying Their Way to Twitter Fame www.nytimes.com/2012/08/23/fashion/twitter-followers-for-sale.html?_r=4&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1345810035-hPtdwhoE1D2MaX4UUGwl9gThis article explains how it's done: The practice is surprisingly easy. A Google search for “buy Twitter followers” turns up dozens of Web sites like USocial.net, InterTwitter.com, and FanMeNow.com that sell Twitter followers by the thousands (and often Facebook likes and YouTube views). At BuyTwitterFollow.com, for example, users simply enter their Twitter handle and credit card number and, with a few clicks, see the ranks of their followers swell in three to four days.
Will Mitchell, the founder of Clear Presence Media, a marketing company outside Tampa, Fla., said that he has bought more than a million followers for his clients, which include musicians, start-ups and a well-known actress he declined to identify. “And it’s so cheap, too,” he said. In one instance, Mr. Mitchell said, he bought 250,000 for $2,500, or a penny each.According to this article, some 70% of the legions of people following Lady Gaga, and President Obama, are fake or inactive. Twitter has filed lawsuits against the spammers. Pretty enlightening. Could you please give the title of the article, and perhaps the section where it is filed under so that I could find it? The link you posted requires registering and after doing that I end up at the home page (feat. Louisiana, Ryan, Buchanan, severe diet and Citigroup among others). The same when trying again your link and logging in... That's weird. I can see it and I don't have to log in or anything. I'm not a registered user of the New York Times site. The article is called Twitter Followers for Sale and it's by August Considine, August 22, 2012. It's in Fashion and Style.

On second thought, after seeing Nicki Minaj's tweets the other day... : Adam's tweets were nothing compared to Minaj's - hers were waaaaay over the line.  A one-time song on Glee compared to appearing twice a week - four hours - for months on Idol. No comparison! Idol for the win!!!  |

That was my first thought! Great minds... ;D LOL I'm just trying to figure out WHO told him to clean up his tweets. The producers at Idol? His own management people?  My bet would be Shoshanna ;D She usually tweeets about Adam's tweets and she didn't even acknowledge that he had a twitter party yesterday! She was mum! |

I have a feeling that Sauli was not delighted in the morning . Hmm... Maybe I have forgotten a lot but I don't see him being upset about Adam tweeting him sleeping like an angel... I don't either! Sauli has a wonderful sense of humor! I think he would have gotten a kick out of the unfiltered Twitter party! |

It was the ambien talking.  I don't see Sauli being at all upset about the twitter party. He probably read it and laughed. |

I just saw this, think I've caught the latter half of this interview but definitely not the beginning where he was talking about Prince Harry's nude Vegas party. If this has been posted previously somewhere, then scroll away.

I guess some entertainers think they are" too cool for school..." Adam has mentioned not being accepted as a friend by other singers a number of times.. To Paraphrase ,don't remember where I read this. He said something like it seems like it's almost a political decision to be my friend. That really must hurt.. yes like high school. I have faith that one day these same arrogant twits will be all over Adam. Hope his memory is long. This just reminded me of Michael Phelps. He was bullied when he was in the middle school, he was that awkward kid with big ears. And then suddenly he was famous in Olympic 2000, and he became the first youngest male to make the US Olympic team in 68years. In 2004 he's even more famous and suddenly people coming out of woodwork wanted to be his friends, including those kids who bullied him. Adam was never bullied in high school, but looks like he is kind of now in the business, with all these people that think they're in more popular place than Adam. It's funny how the top producers are proud and want to work with him, but maybe the top40 artists/singers think they're better than Adam just because. Or maybe they have to act like that because they know that he's the best male vocal in the world right now. Just wait till Queen announce QAL concerts in the US. |

It was the ambien talking. I don't see Sauli being at all upset about the twitter party. He probably read it and laughed.  I really enjoyed the party. It felt like he was talking with friends. It was fun. He is one funny, vivacious , benevolent, open, chatty, friendly, lovable person... Instead of watching TV, doing crosswords or bloody embroidery or whatever he normally does when he can't sleep, he decided to hang out with us, because he wanted it, not because he needed it. Not announcing or promoting anything... just hanging out. It's so cool. I'm on #deletedforprofessionalreasonsteam |

It's like he knew he had "friends" awake somewhere that he could hang with until he fell asleep. Very sweet! :wub: |
