RT @glambertgirl69: @neonlimelight Idk but I hope Adam Lambert doesn't get snubbed b/c he deserves it the most of anyone!

On Air/Ryan Seacrest @onairwithryanVote for your favorite album of 2012! #BestOf2012 #Beliebers, #Directioners #Glamberts #Swifties bit.ly/TJN7oJ Adam Lambert’s Trespassing did very well as the former “American Idol” runner up debuted at number one as the album was filled with infectious pop tunes.

I'm sure some of the wording is slightly skewed because of translation, but still ... Adam has no problem with that. ‘I will not avoid my past. I used to be a failure, rejected after numerous audition for musicals and TV appearance ...But my dream never fades. I’m still pursuing my dream. The difference is I gained a huge opportunity.  [img src=" ![]() i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Other%20Smileys/clap.gif"] [/IMG] [img src=" ![]() i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Other%20Smileys/clap.gif"][/IMG] YOU GO, Adam!!! (And as we all know, he didn't expect any of this when he auditioned for Idol, but he went in, confident, prepared and believing anything was possible and he kicked ass.) [/quote] I just read the original Chinese article, "failure" would be the correct literal translation of the corresponding Chinese words "失败“ but that's a translation from Adam's original words --- in English. So, he might have said something like, "I didn't have much success before, got rejected for numerous musical auditions, and TV roles...". #isn't_translation_fun# ;D[/size][/font] |

VH1 DIVAS @vh1divasWith @adamlambert hosting #VH1Divas, you KNOW it's gonna be good on.vh1.com/VmLaOi -walls shaking, glass shattering kinda good. and can point me in the right direction. Could be I do not have that as part of my cable package. (I can never view any VH1 videos etc that are posted; it could be they don't care about us... out of country folk ie. Canadians. haha |

If you look at the major submissions in this category this year, the competition isn't that Great. If you look at album sales this year, they are not that great. Like tinafea said, I am not a toddler that is going to throw a tantrum. I just can't spend my days expecting the least in situations so I won't get disappointed. I can't! As far as I know, the Grammy submissions list has not leaked in total so we do not know who was submitted. Based on what has leaked, we do know some of the submissions in this category. Here are a few: Adam Lambert #1 US 152K+ Justin Bieber #1 Platinum Kelly Clarkson #1 Platinum Coldplay #1 Platinum Lana Del Rey #2 US 408K, Platinum in many countries Florence + the Machine #6 US 717K, Platinum in many countries fun #3, US 658K Nora Jones #2 Madonna #1 US 518K Maroon 5 #2 US 700K [missed #1 by < 1,000 units] John Mayer #1 US 500K+ Jason Mraz #2 US 252K One Direction #1 US 1.4 million P!nk #1 US 700K+ Rihanna #3 US 850K Usher #1 US 373K Looks like a tough field to me -- not based on my personal taste but based on who is likely to get votes. ETA: I am not disagree that Adam could get nominated, just not agreeing that the field in not that competitive or that album sales are low. I really can not figure out WHY sales for TSP are so low???? They are not near what FYE sales were, are these numbers just for US? Surely intl sales are better? Of course, it is kinda hard to buy this album when it is no longer being stocked in the stores, when was the last time anyone saw the album on a rack at their local music store or one of the big retailers like Target? When I was in London in Oct, my friend bought the last 2 TSP at the HMV, it was on sale 2 for L15. I haven't seen it at my local Wal Mart since June. Wonder if RCA plans on restocking when Adam gets the Grammy nom? I hope so!!!!! I believe. I'm a believer. ;D |

Hic, wish I wasn't blocked from viewing stuff co I can laugh :-( I don't think you need to see anything. It's a play on words. Why the long face? (horses have long faces, they are born that way, can't do anything about it, in their case a long face doesn't mean a sad face) Even as a horse person I think I scrolled down to the next post before I got the joke and I have heard it before too. Call me slow on the uptake. |

When I went to buy my tickets for the Cape Town concert, I was there when the ticket sales opened and was horrified to find that only about 20% of the venue was available to purchase and not the best seats either! I couldn't believe it and was so disappointed. They later released more tickets, which didn't thrill me!
However, I was just happy to be in the same room as this amazing man and I also took my binoculars for a real CLOSE UP view...SWOON!
