It really does!! I've watched it like three times in a row. From little boy creative adorkable to fierce sex god tearing up the stage.  Regarding fan wars, since I almost never go to MJ's or anyplace else where Idol people congregate, I don't know, but I DO think there is sometimes some animosity with say Cook and Kris fans, but not much. And you're right, they always seem to involve Adam. I think it's largely because no matter what, he overshadows everyone else. He has the most media attention, the most Twitter followers, the successful tour, the major collaborators ... they always have to try to knock down the person at the top. I say let them try; it only brings more notoriety to Adam. What I can't take is the disgusting, hateful stuff; I try not to give those freaks any attention other than to block and report, but still it enrages. I am an Idol Loon and have been BSC about the show since season 1. I would say the only 2 seasons that did not spawn big fan wars was S1 and S7. S1 because it was so new and the show manufactured a romance between Kelly and Justin. There was some hate from Tamyra fans though. S2 huge fan wars! S3, the same because of the 3 divas, Fantasia, Jennifer, and ??the third??. Season 4, between the Bo and Carrie fans, "YES!!" 'Carrie was boring,' 'a rocker can never win,' etc. Season 5 may have been the worst. So much hate for Daughtry that still continues, to this day, from many Taylor fans. There were even hate boards for Daughtry. Season 6, yes. Lots of hate for Jordin from Blake fans. Season 7, David Cook and Archuleta always treated each other like big and little brothers, so I think this may be a season that had the smallest amount of fan wars. However, Cook fans are now jealous of the attention that Adam gets, both in the press and from RCA. They are all praying for huge numbers for his upcoming album. (I like Cook, a lot and am also hoping for his success. Album #2 is scary for Idols.) Which brings us to Season 8 and as Susie says, everyone has the guy at the top as their target. :-/ (Sorry, too long and maybe off topic. I can delete it if Q3 so desires.) This all makes me appreciate Adamtopia all the more (as if I didn't already appreciate it enough). We're so lucky to have a place to go with up-to-the-second information at our fingertips with valuable interaction among fans without having to sift through pages of hate. I also love my Twitter feed. I no longer post at other boards but do sometimes check them out when I'm bored and usually regret it. The hate and disrespect for other human beings that you don't even know really saddens me and makes my stomach churn. |

gelly, IMO, the reason why is that Idol is built on competition. So, the competition never ends! (Competition is one thing, but there is no excuse for the hate.)

Gelly
AWWW many thanks and I added a few that I do not have.
Oh my gosh I was experimenting ...I just did not do the attachments correctly in the reply section. Once I "browse" to get the pic ..I need to copy and paste it in.... clicking on the attachment bar, does not bring it to the post, only pulls up questions of copyright. (Maybe I should learn photobucket!!!)
So no pics with Sutan drawing pictures/illustrations of the other folk on the trip? I try to find them some day when I am not dashing to the computer between housecleaning chores!

Those pictures are fun. My favorite was the macro made from the one where Adam is standing in front of the wrought iron railing which said something to the effect of ' I was straight before Adam touched me '. I didn't save that so if someone has it, would you post it and this time I will save. Come on, I know someone and I wouldn't be surprised if more than one has it. |
