And that mic bit is exactly why he will probably never be mainstream. Does he want to be, do we want him to be? It is appropriate behavior for an OTT frontman of a rock band, but will Adam ever be asked to sing the SSB at the Super Bowl? He is at the top of his game now, he can choose which way he wants to go. Don't sell him short- IMO Adam is very good about adjusting his performance style to suit the occasion. I recall the SSB at the military base in San Diego and he behaved perfectly and with the utmost respect for his audience. Exactly. Adam's not stupid. Before someone screams, "AMAs!" I would remind you that he did that performance after watching Rihanna march around the stage wearing next-to-nothing, and Gaga set fire to her piano. Other performers, including JLo, have gotten away with antics similar to Adam's so I do believe there was a double standard involved for a gay man. But we're not here to rehash that whole thing again. My point is just that Adam generally knows what is appropriate for a particular audience. His bit with the microphone is on par with what a lot of mainstream pop stars do onstage for an audience that expects a certain degree of sexual innuendo in a pop or rock concert. |

Gregory Dolecki @doleckigregory 4m4 minutes ago St Louis, MO @nommienom You do know I was just teasing you on Facebook about the Adam Lambert blow up doll, etc., don't you? I know you think he's cute. Maybe not a bad business idea?  Restraining desperate urge to comment wickedly............  LOL! Remember this pic?  |

Wow! What a delightful thought. Or perhaps he could have done some if the stuff he did with the mike on Sunday night. It was def PG-13. And that mic bit is exactly why he will probably never be mainstream. Does he want to be, do we want him to be? It is appropriate behavior for an OTT frontman of a rock band, but will Adam ever be asked to sing the SSB at the Super Bowl? He is at the top of his game now, he can choose which way he wants to go. Lots of artists of various kinds are wilder in concert settings than on TV, radio, or at special events, fundraisers, etc. I think Adam can do that as well. My main concern about Adam's career in the future is that I won't be able to afford tickets except in the nosebleed seats. LOL *self-centered* peace&love |

Today is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day here in the US and to celebrate this amazing man I think everyone can relate to this quote. I think Adam would agree. Laurie Motley @lauriemotley 15h15 hours ago Phoenix, AZ Quote from an amazing man and leader. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Hugs all of you wonderful people  I know I've been MIA for a "little" while but I was just waiting for A3 and I've been stanning for my other fave too. Let the Lamberting begin Holst, I just saw the episode and it hit me right in the feels I haven't been able to see a show unfortunately. I've so much to catch up on Bears are banned from ATOP now that Adam doesn't like them  |

Besides he grins after he does his antics! |
