I know, Nica, gets to me too. But the reality is, there is an awful lot of folks who do judge or have their mind so made up that if they come around to stop judging, we are actually already making progress. It was not exactly clear from the text who is saying what. The way I read it, this lady writing on the blog or newsletter is saying this sentence, not Kris' mom, who actually met Adam and I presume got quite a bit further in her thinking than that, no matter at what point she started out prior to the competition. The reason I am assuming that is because Leila and Kim actually got along really well and if 'it's not my place to judge' were all she could get herself to say or think in this matter, I don't think Leila would have put up with that and become that friendly with her. Leila was friendly with Kris' folks, but not so much with Danny's. There was a difference in acceptance and Neil did shine a light on that on occasion. So, therefore I understand this to be that newsletter lady writing that sentence. If I read and interpret this right, this is written for some local newsletter, somewhere in Arkansas. This person is probably writing for an audience, where 'don't judge' is already progress. Sadz, but true. Actually I think that was Kim putting the interviewer in her place. Seemed to me like the interviewer was implying that there was something wrong with Kris being friends with Adam and Kim was rebuking her by saying it is not our place to judge. It isn't really. A true Christian is not supposed to judge, that is God's place. That's the way I felt it was meant. |

Not only is the audio on this video fabulous, but even though it is far away, she keeps the Jumbotron in the camera view for the whole thing. So you can definitely see Adam! v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNTIxOTEzODYw.htmlThank you! I just finished this. Excellent sound! Wow!!! |

But it has all the songs in the right order. I have watched a few parts of the video (mainly IIHY, Stay&Underneath, Fever and Strut), I just haven't watched the whole thing. lol As I said maybe it's stupid.  Of course, you can make your own decision and definitely should. But, I would say watch it because if you don't know what to expect, you might miss things you want to see and undoubtedly, forget every single thing you saw! This is true. You go into kind of a stupor during the show and may come out of it remembering nothing! I.Am.Serious!, I vote with mys*&@^#r50 on this one. I would watch all of the vids so there would be less chance of distraction at the concert. That way I could totally concentrate on Adam when seeing him in person. As it is, there will be so much for you to take in. SO MANY FEELS! And we know that each performance is different, each one special (otherwise we wouldn't excitedly wake up in the middle of the night for livestreams), so just being in the audience would be enough to make an Adam concert unbelievably exciting to me, no matter how many vids I had seen. But, you obviously know yourself better than I do, so whatever you decide, I AM THRILLED THAT YOU GET TO SEE HIM LIVE!  |

I count 5 guys - glad to see them! Who's the short-haired blond woman? Is she the same one we saw in a lineup in one of the concert photos, all dressed up? |

Hong Kong bound! Message says, "saw Adam off at the airport, much more 'civilized' this time around (as opposed to the welcoming), security was pretty tight, too. "

I think that interview with Kris' mom was a fake that originated on ONTD_AI. It was supposed to have appeared in a monthly newsletter. It surfaced on ONTD_AI. Then the article/interview with Kim Allen is posted on the message board of Kris Allen Official posted by bryantarfan www.krisallenofficial.com/node/9525But was deleted from both sites. Note: bryantarfan is a real Kris Allen fan and did not create this "article". I believe she just brought it over to KAO. It was deleted but here is the whole text of the KAO post from IDF -- idolforums.com/index.php?showtopic=618069The "article" was filled with errors -- for example: The contestants are paid once they make the final 12/13. Each finalist is required to join the performers’ union AFTRA (The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists). As members of AFTRA, contestants must be paid the minimum hourly rate for a TV performer. Wrong, the amount increases as the show goes on. As far as I can tell, no one ever found the original newsletter -- and many people looked for it in 2009. Thanks for the info and link. What you've said makes sense and sounds familiar now. I should have remembered that it started on ontd_ai. Guess you could call it fanfic. |
