The fact that Adam is looking at homes, says he is more confident in his incoming income. The house he looked at is for sale,He but Zillow also suggests it is rentable for $10k monthly. It would be better if Adam bought a home for tax purposes. He attended an Open House which for me means he's not likely to be seriously looking. Sounds more like a driveby, oh look, an open house you want to stop in and look? Adam may have enjoyed talking to him and even given the guy permission to use his name, it's not like you are required to provide your name when you go to open houses. Then again open houses in Southern CA may be a whole lot different than they are in my neck of the woods. I'm betting if Adam is looking, then he already has an agent lined up and they visit houses when hordes of other people are not there. Adam IS looking at houses to buy one. And he does have his own real estate agent.  And I doubt that guy had to ask Adam his name at the Open House! But that tweet he sent was beyond stupid. |

But I think at this price point you do not just "drop in" to view the open house. Not sure how it would work but I suspect you are on a list of acceptable people to view the house. eta: just a comment on Adams gold bracelet. I think on anyone else I would put it in the OTT, déclassé bracket but on Adam... Well it not only works but looks damn good. |

There are lots on news stories about CEOs that take huge severance packages and salaries while driving companies into the ground and exporting jobs. Performers and athletes are a different matter because they earn their millions from their talents and skills. They are selling these talents and skills and those public is free to buy them or not. I am not an apologist for CEOs, far from it, but it does take some serious mad skills to become the CEO of a major corporation. I do think their salaries should be more closely tied to the health of the company, however you may define that. I am not normally such a devil's advocate but prepping for a colonoscopy has just made me contrary, I guess.  |

Really good, I don't give a fuck drugs are involved. |

After WAG, I made a guesstimate of 2-2.5 million pocketed by Adam. I did that using ticket sales and a formula in a Billboard article. Then I figured close to another million from Queen. So another 1.5 million from his other gigs seems about right. The 5 million might even be a tad low, but not much. Wonder if they got his video game promo in China? My guess is "No" That list should put to rest some insane theories Idol fans expound at other sites, like: 1. International $$ means nothing!  2. Single sales are the be all of everything! 3. Opening for someone else is awesome! ??? 4. Queen doesn't pay well!!  5. Adam Lambert's 15 minutes are over!   $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
 just compared to Daughtry. I think his sales' better than Adam and he did 80 concerts which mostly in the US. Adam only did a handful in the US and a handful international concerts but he made more money than Daughtry. Not so bad for an alumn who had a "flop" second album.

Even if that was Adam's dream house, he couldn't buy it now with the address blasted into cyberspace. Looked like a very peaceful and pretty place. I wonder if that guy is in trouble with his broker? Is it possible that he doesn't know who Adam is? |

I think he knows who Adam is. I think he wanted to thank Adam directly but did it in the wrong way (publicly).
