Yesterday was our first So Cal party at Mayumi's. We coupled a Nottingham listening party, with a brunch, with a BD party for Adam, with a "Welcome to California" for Mayumi! There were only 6 of us, but man, can we talk!! Forgot to take a group picture, but we had myself, susiefierce, 8toinfinity, stardust, Lorraine, and of course, Mayumi! If any So Cal members would like to join us next time, please PM me because I don't know exactly who lives here besides the people i already know. A few people invited couldn't make it, but hope to see hem next time. Besides a yummy brunch of 2 fritatas, fruit, muffins, veggies, croissants, mini Qucihe's, Mimosas made with Moet & Chandon, here are the cupcakes we had instead of birthday cake. Not quite Betty's cakes but they served their purpose! I am so bummed out. Mayumi's AFL parties are the greatest! I miss her like hell! So Cal, hope you fully appreciate what a wonderful person you now have to squee with.

As the band launches into opening track One Vision it is May and Taylor who seem to be the 10ft giants on stage while Lambert, a super skinny George Michael leather-clad Faith-era look-a-like, valiantly attempts to achieve the sheer power the song demands. Excellent visual - now if we could just put "buff" in there somewhere. I had to laugh at the "super skinny" comment after all the years of seeing comments about how "fat" Adam is, lol! I think he's looking great! That training is really paying off!
I think he's been skinny for years now. He was very skinny when he auditioned for Idol then on that Idol mansion he gained weight but he lost those weight during or after the GNT. I heard people who met him saying he's actually skinny in person. HOWEVER, now that he has personal trainer, he's toning up all those muscles.

So happy to hear you've all gotten together and Mayumi is still the hostess with mostest. I think I have some of those crown charms. Never thought of putting them on cupcakes. Recently bought this one for a new project:

I had to laugh at the "super skinny" comment after all the years of seeing comments about how "fat" Adam is, lol! I think he's looking great! That training is really paying off! Even after all these years, I get hot thinking about all the "fat and ugly" comments Adam got during Idol and beyond. Particularly since he never was either. So, in a way, all the now-ubiquitous DAAAAAAMMMNNN!!! and Lord, he's hot! exclamations are awesome to see. And, in a way, its a smidge pang-worthy as sometimes I wonder if this buff-super slinky Adam might be as much (or more) in response to the trolls scoffing at his looks versus him just growing into himself and the required athleticism of the frontman role. <shrugs> I don't spend scads of time thinking about it, but occasionally when I look at old reviews I still feel pissed. I know you are all shruggy on this and so am I, but my thoughts are that if you look at photos of Adam pre-Idol, he was also very "trim". I think he may have put on a very few pounds while sitting around the mansion at Idol having someone else cook his meals, but as soon as he was out and about, immediately took them off. So, I don't think trolls are the issue, just getting back to his pre-Idol comfort weight. I also think the last year or so, since he has gotten a trainer, he is trying to sculpt that body a little more (as opposed to losing weight). But still for his own pleasure. Gotta show off those tats you know.

I remember Allison gained weight during AI. Must of been due to their crazy schedule and show stress. I, also, remember a comment about them being very thin at the start of the AI tour. I'm glad Adam has a trainer to guide him so he doesn't overdo it.

Not quite Betty's cakes but they served their purpose! Definitely full of envy! One of my big losses was not getting to one of Mayumi's get togethers when the getting was good. Love the image and the thought of all of you together welcoming Mayumi to her new life. When the focus returns to US, she will be in on all the LA goodies.
