Exactly on Adam... He should get a Grammy nomination  I just wish our BB could get recognition he deserves that Grammy thing.. TBH I actually couldn't careless, but it's big, if WWFM is worth getting a nomination then so does Trespassing . Musically it is way more stronger IF the Male Pop Vocal GRAMMY category still existed (what Adam/WWFM got nominated for), still existed, I think Adam would be an odds on favorite for a nomination. But that category was eliminated 2 years ago. Now the competition is much more intense, and not comparable. Adam is in competition with P!nk and Kelly Clarkson this time, along with GRAMMY favs like John Mayer. BEST POP VOCAL ALBUM is a huge category with over 500 submissions. The GRAMMY voters are mostly not powerful people in the music business -- they are all members of the Recording Industry, performers, songwriters, musicians, producers. There are over 10,000 voters and many, many from the independent music sector. This is the most democratic of the 4 major American Awards academies -- by far. Adam may or may not get a nomination this year. But even if he does not get nominated, it does not mean that he is not respected within the recording industry. It just means that he was not one of the top five vote getters in the categories he was submitted in. ** I am a realist. It would be very unusual for an artist to get a nomination in the Pop (Pop = Popular) music category for an album that did not sell 200K units or produce a Pop hit in the US. Not impossible, but unusual. Over the past 5 years (25 nominees) there is one album nominated in this category that did not have US sales over 500K -- James Taylor "Covers" 2009. Adam could be the rules-changer and it would be stunningly wonderful if he gets nominated BUT even if he is not nominated, Trespassing will remain one of the best albums of 2012. |

I personally think Adam should have been worried about kneeling down in front of Aurea and then her putting her leg in between his knees! He should worrry about that backlash! Sure looked to me like they were getting ready for cunninglingus!  ;D  :4OMG: :4OMG: |

He looks great, IMO! I don't even see any bags under his eyes and he is without make-up!  So we have the answer to who Rob is. He is Tour manager and Dana is Day manager! Got it!! What's a Day manager? ??? |

SlapDash - I agree with you. My initial remark yesterday was a reaction to Fever as well. IMO Johnny goes really far out... I understand that the whole choreo for Fever was designed that way - the high heels is SA... But to me his (Johnny's) movements looked a bit out of place yesterday, a farce almost... Adam's sexuality feels "real", it is coming from within, it is his essence - totally different. This is a touchy subject. Does Johnny act "too gay"? I agree, Adam is more my style but my guess is that Adam's response would be that there are many ways to be gay. He has stood against remarks people make saying he is ok because he is not overly afeminate in support for those that are. And you are all familiar with his exboyfriend, Cheeks?! (BTW, in Husbands, Cheeks has a great explaination of purposely living up to stereotypical overtly gay behavior). I think the clearly gay Fever was Adam pushing the bounderies of accepting homosexuality without glossing it over. Cheeks? I AM IN LOVE WITH CHEEKS!!!! I think he is the most fascinating, beautiful, raiser sharp intellectually, funny and what not... I follow him and Husbands with passion. again, my concern was a possibility of Chinese official response to the overall performance of FEVER, specifically Johnny's "character" in (specifically) yesterday's performance... it was rebuted by our experts on Chinese culture and all is great I personally enjoy every bit of gender bending, high heels and all ;D - the more the better! p.s. I see stubble is still there - not shaved at all! |

Okay, time-out for me. MTE LOL So when a gay guy is more feminine is a farce? Johnny IS feminine. That's who he is. Other gays are masculine . So if Adam will act someday in a more feminine way it will be a farce? All righty then.... I have to say I am offended by this post . Offended for all the gay guys. And probably my post will get banned but I HAVE to say how I feel. |

What's a Day manager? ??? Manages his day to day professional appointments. Like going to Leno, photo shoots, things like that. He might also do one offs that are not actually part of a tour. I suspect Rob might have more international experience which is why we have seen him in Japan and now China. |

@glam_alidol @adamlambert and @ashleydzerigian with fans at airport today ww3.sinaimg.cn/large/4b65f421…  [/quote SlapDash - I agree with you.

Are you serious right now, wow, in between reading how Johnny's too feminin (sp) acting (s.o. mentioned this on yesterday's thread) and calling Johnny's movements 'a farce almost ' I get a really sick feeling. Maybe people should consider checking their homophobia and misogyny at the door. Do you not remember how upset Adam was when a taxi driver told him he was okay because he was not 'acting' gay |
