Poor Kris Allen. For years Adam has been named the winner of AI Season 8. For years, when Adam corrects the interviewers they ask, "Who DID win?" And now, in numerous articles and TV spots about the Queen tour, it is mentioned that Adam first sang with Queen on the Idol finale. They even show clips. And no mention that Kris ALSO sang that number. He is totally dismissed. If I were a kinder person I would feel really sorry for KA. But, I am more like:

Incredible day. So glad I made this trip to GMA... 2 hrs sleep ... Braved the cold. Fingers frozen. Posting pics while walking the streets... So happy to share any bit of info with this fantastic fandom ..
Had no idea what to expect. Maybe a glimpse of Adam. Got so much more & then some. Such a thrill to be there!!

Very cool moment when I saw Dr Bri though the window right before he went on air. Waved. He waved back.

Gave him a THUMBS UP. He gave me one back. Both of us grinning
So happy for Dr Brian & Rodger. They get to do what they do best. The Show Must Go On. It's who they are . And doing back flips for Our Adam. Such an honor for him !

Thank you ATOP and all the members here for posting SO much to get caught up on.

WOW! YOU HAD SUCH AN AMAZING DAY!!! AND I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP TYPING IN CAPSLOCK!!!

I am sorry I have no time to back read so I don't know if this has been posted. I had tears in my eyes reading what Brian and Roger said about Adam.

Q&A: Queen, Adam Lambert Talk New Tour, Pressure and John Deacon

.
.

Tell me about seeing Adam sing for the first time. What struck you about him as a singer and performer?
Brian May: It was both at the same time. I always think that singing is a very physical thing. I'm now famous for attacking The Voice in Britain. I think it's a stupid idea to put someone behind a screen or turn your back to them. A singer is full-on in every respect. It's a physical thing. It's the sound, the look, the animal magnetism. You don't question it. When you see Adam, you see a performer. He's performing from his heart. He's interpreting the song. I never had any question that he's the real thing. It's a rare thing to find someone with that much talent and the instrument to put it forward.

Roger, how did you first see Adam? Was it on Youtube?
Roger Taylor: Yeah. A musician friend of mine in America was like, "You've gotta check out this guy on Idol." So we Googled you. His voice was phenomenal. I was just like, "Wow."

Adam: Thanks guys!

Taylor: I said you had this sort of slight Elvis look going on. I just thought, "Wow, what a voice! Those octaves!" That was my first impression. It was just like anybody else hearing about someone with an extraordinary talent.

At the press conference you said he was a "diva in the best possible way." Can you elaborate on that?
Taylor: To me, diva means an extraordinary, outrageously theatrical, brilliant performer.

May: [Sarcastically] But he is really difficult.

Lambert: You ain't seen nothing yet! You should see my rider.
.
.
.
Adam, you're still going to focus on your solo career, right? This is just a side project for now?
Lambert: This is a side-by-side project. As a creative artist, I do a lot of different things. If I'm not busy, I get bored and restless. Earlier this year, I did a stint on Glee. I was in Sweden this last month working on solo material. I'm actually going back to Sweden on Saturday to continue working on that. I like doing a lot of different things. The beauty of that is that something like this is completely inspiring. I'm learning a lot from these two gentlemen. I'm learning from the audience. I think that will help inform and make my material stronger.

By the way what did Adam mean when he said "You ain't seen nothing yet! You should see my rider." ???

If I was Adam I would have strangled that idiot with my own hands - what people have to do for the publicity hounds.

Lol, was thinking similar thoughts.

First thought was, do we think that non-political Adam even has a clue who he is taking that picture with?

Secondly, I bet Neil and Eber will be delighted to see this.

Oh, the irony that comes from being associated with Fox via two different TV shows.

lol. (And B+R are probably just going along for the ride too).

But Sean Hannity seems delighted. So, there is that. Strange world.

Where did Adam say this jacket won't be back. I missed hearing that.

I just finished listening to both EW and Serius interviews and I did not hear that either... so, IDK where Gelly got it from....

The conversation was about being a Diva. So I think Adam was referring to the rider on his contract being demanding etc. Just a guess

you know, when I saw this picture I almost threw up.... just a thought of Adam and this creature in one space makes me sick, not to mention them taking a picture together... which Hannity would NEVER DO if not for the LEGENDARY QUEEN... as you said - publicity ...
