This is so ... so ... SO not anywhere close to my life, I really will need some time to wrap my mind around it to try and understand Adam.
Well, I allways knew we were nothing alike, but this implicates that I am even more different from a lot of people than I thought ... give me a couple of months and I'll have it figured out. |

thanks, cassie, for checking with Angelina. I have no doubt he can hold his own if he would decide to do so. However, as you know there have been no signs of Adam showing any interest in classical/opera singing... for instance - we never heard any reports of Adam attending the Met in NYC, only Broadway shows...and to me it's a somewhat transparent sign of sheer lack of interest on his part, just because NOTHING surpasses the excellence, the grandeur and the pure unsurpassed beauty of REAL SINGING that happens on that stage. But not to Adam. So, why would he want to sing it himself?  well... may be once he matures... Why would he want to sing it? Well, hypothetically speaking..... 1. I don't imagine he WANTED to sing WTFS either. But that is what the script called for. So, he sang it. 2. For some kind of special fund raiser. Some very rich opera fan is willing to donate a boatload of money to hear Adam sing opera. 3. Or, just the opposite. Some very rich opera fan makes the statement that pop singers cannot sing. It's all created in the studio. No pop singer could possibly legitimately sing an opera aria, and he is willing to bet mega-bucks on it. Adam proves him wrong and gets $$$ for his favorite charity. 4. Adam gets bored and is looking for a new challenge, vocally. He secretly wants to prove to the world that he IS the greatest singer of his generation, and, no matter that he doesn't care for opera himself, to some, opera is the pinnacle of singing prowess. He has already proven he can sing pop, rock, funk, blues, jazz, ballads, and musical theater. What's left? |

I can't decide because written, the context could go several ways. "I guess he expects me to SERVICE him on his flight" Play on words because he is a flight attendant, he serves Homophobic inappropriate or just tacky sexual innuendo and I agree he will be lucky to keep his job or avoid suspension I agree....not a smart thing to say. |

www.broadwayworld.com/article/SOUND-OFF-Twelve-Reasons-To-Be-Thankful-For-GLEE-20131129SOUND OFF: Twelve Reasons To Be Thankful For GLEENovember 29, 2013 Today we are counting down twelve very valid reasons why Glee is something to be thankful for this holiday season, particularly last night's wacky Thanksgiving episode (though no turkeys were involved, alas). 11. Pamela Lansbury's fantasy cover of "Into The Groove" - which was somehow even more fabulous than it sounds (really)! Kurt (Chris Colfer), Rachel (Lea Michele), Santana (Naya Rivera) with guest standouts Starchild (Adam Lambert) and Dani (Demi Lovato) make Madonna magic.

Who was the person who had the Glee fantasy that Adam's secret reveal was that he was studying opera, and he sings an aria on Glee? It prompted discussion about whether or not Adam could credibly sing an operatic aria on Glee. Well, I was chatting with our favorite opera singer/voice coach, Angelina Kalahari, this afternoon. I told her the fantasy and asked if she thought Adam could sing opera. Immediately, unequivacably, and adamantly she said "YES!" He definitely has the techniques necessary. Additionally, he is a master at vocal placement, which is all important in opera. He almost always sings within the "mask" in the front of his face, which is very desireable and something most pop singers do not do. (She is referring to that brilliant resonant richness to his tone that we refer to as 3D.) Opera singers also work on emotional delivery, which he has in spades. And on proper articulation, which, again, Adam has down like no other. I said something like, "So, Adam could sing opera right now, with some coaching on style." She said not only "yes" but that he wouldn't need coaching. At most, he would need a bit on Italian pronunciation, but he has the keen ear to pick that up very quickly. (He also told her when they chatted once that he had sung opera during The Three Waiters gig. She commented that he wouldn't have gotten or kept that gig if he couldn't sing opera credibly.) So, there you have it. The definitive (IMHO)answer to "Can Adam legitimately sing opera?" Now, in what universe can we convince him to give it a go, just once? Good luck with that!! Probably won't happen until he is considerably older ( if ever)!!!  |
