When I first read this idea it seemed a tad nutty to me. On reflection, it is a good idea for generating the needed unique non fan request that he needs. I think many students would be more than happy to do this for a yummy treat. Genius! Omg, Jean, I was joking! Omg... But, hey, why not, right? Yummy treats all around ;D I was sort of joking along, but do think we need outside the box thinking to generate interest. I think there are many very clever people here who are dedicated too, and am hopeful that they will come up with good ideas. I am more of a worker bee type but am willing to help if I can.

Again, point taken. But what exactly are you proposing for this era?? He already had the big, controversial performance. The impact a second time would not have any of those positive effects. I'm really confused about what you want to happen here.. I'm not proposing anything for the era but organized requesting after pll. There's such discrimination against gay citizens in the US that a "gate" is not necessarily a bad thing if it forces us to have a dialogue about our prejudices. A gate about forcefeeding cupcakes to Gaga or getting arrested in Finland is not what I had in mind, as neither leads to such a conversation. No one here knows how Adam thinks. Which is more likely, Adam sitting and planning his next "gate" in his spare time, or not?

Q: How are your matters of heart? A: I am happy now. Perhaps this is the first time in my life that I've achieved balance, harmony. Q: Beside the new album and the "new" hair color you also have a new tattoo. A: Many fans ask me why I changed the color. Strange question. Why not? as far as the tattoo on my left hand - it reads " Latin text here", in translation means "text here"... I love tattoos. It is a great way to commemorate some moments and events in one's life. Once it is on your body - you have to live with it. Like a stamp in your passport. (laughs). Thanks for the translation! :D

I totally thought you were serious. ;D The thing is, I'm trying to form an opinion based on the opinions of people here that I find trustworthy + my common sense. ( ok, forget the latter) So, back to the Atopers : there are so many different attitudes towards requesting here! It's giving me a whiplash.

A gate about forcefeeding cupcakes to Gaga or getting arrested in Finland is not what I had in mind, as neither leads to such a conversation. No one here knows how Adam thinks. Which is more likely, Adam sitting and planning his next "gate" in his spare time, or not? idk. He has said that he overthinks things, believes in strategizing, and wants to be in control. Gates as useful as the amas are rarely planned, and he said that he did not plan that one. All I'm saying is that the amas were constructive, for him, and for us. A similar gatewould be equally useful, for him, and for us. What started off as a little comment about "gates" as PR strategy has taken on a life of its own. Points have been made, refuted, reiterated, re-refuted. Let's all move on. I am closing this discussion as of 1:15 EDT. Anyone wanting to further debate the topic is welcome to migrate to the dark thread. Thanks.

Hi everyone. I know some of you visit twitter from time to time and the Danish Glamberts are going to try for a trend on Sunday at 9 pm local time if you want to help. They've made this poster: www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1129089&l=d2bd0064fc&id=100754603306801I think the time will be 3 pm for the Eastern time zone, and 12 for the Pacific time zone, 8 pm for the UK and 10 pm for Finland, if I've got all my time zones correct! This Danish group mainly uses Facebook and this is the first time I've seen them try to use Twitter actively - it's going to be interesting to see if it works! Thanks for the info! You have my support for this. Go, Danish Glamberts!!!!

This is Adam. He aint got no bs in his bag. He's straight foward, that's what music is about- you love it or you hate it, non compromising, it's not about the charting but about making people feel something, organic, fuck the rules, integrity, honest to a fault, down to earth, keeping it real. Yeah, he got in this game to make more money but also for the opportunities and he will be a happy man cause he is going to be on the stage for the rest of his life. In my opinion, it is all about self-expresion with Adam. He dresses how he does to represent who he is. He sings to say this is me. He wants to be the best as a celebration of who he is. He does not feed off attention that is not about who he is. When he says I'm gonna shine when I want to shine, I don't think he messures that by fitting into the radio mold. Yeah, he wants to be a radio hit but you can bet he'll shine with it or without it. Honestly, I think Adam sees himself as just Adam, riding the wave to see where it heads, paddling with all he's got--not out of desperation but out of dedication and love of the adventure. I am absolutely sure the adventure in his life is here to stay. I think it's his fans that love him so much that we get outraged he isn't getting what he deserves. But Adam would never say that. We sometimes forget that Adam measures success by adventure, love and light. And wasn't he asked once what he wanted to be know for, and his response was that he can sing his face off? Well, mission accomplished.
