I'm wondering if this DJ at UMixIt doesn't like Adam.. He mentioned all the songs coming up and didn't mention Adam though Trespassing has been sitting at #1 for a while now.. even though another song comes in for a few seconds to #1 and gets played.. grrr! >:( This is getting frustrating. I hate games and this is a total manipulation tonight. AT LAST!! |

www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/music/bs-ae-adam-lambert-marriage-equality-20120921,0,3252503.story Adam Lambert joins movement for marriage equality in Md.Pop singer headlines concert at 9:30 Club on Tuesday By Mary Clare Fischer For The Baltimore Sun 6:08 p.m. EDT, September 21, 2012 Adam Lambert waited until after he was crowned runner-up of American Idol's eighth season to reveal that he was gay (which came as a surprise to almost no one). Since then, he's become the first openly gay man to top the Billboard 200 album chart with his second album, "Trespassing." Now, he's lending his support to the push toward marriage equality in Maryland. Tuesday, Lambert headlines a fundraising concert for Marylanders for Marriage Equality at the 9:30 Club in D.C. Lambert was eager to discuss his feelings on the bill, his identity as a gay artist and whether or not marriage is in the cards for him. Do you have plans to get married?No plans now. I would like the right. I'm fighting for not only myself but for anybody else who's gay or lesbian and wants to be able to be married. Whether I was straight or gay, I would still support this issue because it's a human issue. If there are enough yeses on Question 6, Maryland will be the first state to uphold marriage equality bill after it's been put to referendum. What are your thoughts on that?To me, I saw Prop 8 come up in California, and everyone assumed it would work out. Unfortunately, it didn't, and that was kind of embarrassing. When that happened, I said if there's anything I can do in the future to help lend my support to this type of cause, I'm going to. When I heard about Maryland, I was like, 'This is the next Prop 8!' What I love about this concept is that it's giving the power to the people, which is an important step. more..

:4OMG: :4OMG: Sometimes I feel like we are all doing the modern equivalent of reading tea leaves, casting bones, shaking bamboo sticks out of a tube or consulting a Ouija board. Did Idol scorn Adam? Did Adam turn down an offer? Did Idol chicken out? Did Mariah throw a fit? Did Adam get fed up and withdraw? I can point out "evidence" to support any number of theories. What each of us end up believing in the end may say more about our personalities and agendas than reality. Until Adam's autobiography comes out, we probably will never know. Like we said earlier, Adam has a damned good filter when he wants to incorporate it. Personally, I choose to believe that Adam decided not to go with the Idol gig. Don't try to argue me out of it. If I consider all the "evidence" that Adam was denied the job, I get pissed and feel bad for Adam. If I consider all the "evidence" that Adam opted out, I smile, nod my head, relax, and look forward to what's next for our amazing man. As Adam has remarked, one sometimes has to work at remaining positive and seeing the many good things in life. That's how I prefer to occupy my mind.  |

IMO the only reason that makes sense (to me) for Adam to decline the AI job would be the pre-determined role that each judge was required to play...perhaps that came out late in the negotiations process and he did decline... we will never know....
anyway - did anyone notice that after the TP was played the DJ said something about S. Tyler getting back to Idol...
Are there any rumors to that effect? Why did he say that?

So do you think he changed his mind in the last week, before the announcement, or do you think he lied when he said how much he would like to do it? I would love to think that he turned it down, but his interviews and tweets point to him wanting it! Maybe he changed his mind during the negotiations ??? Maybe they didn't let him to be his honest himself ??? Sauli didn't mention AI, but he did talk about the fake in American reality TV shows and how they give judges different roles to play. Then Sauli said nothing about American Idol and Adam turning down the job. Fans jumped to that conclusion and now are repeating it as if Sauli said "Adam wasn't interested in the job". Adam wanted the job up until the night of his Ambien tweets. A little over one week later, Idol had settled on Randy. Adam's a smart business man. He knew he could make gold (or platinum  ) out of an opportunity to be in front of 15-16 million TV viewers every week. He's smart enough to know what something like this would have meant at this point in his career. |
