It would have been great to have less hat and more of Terrance's pretty face.
But who knew Wayne Brady could move like that? He wasn't half bad.

On Wednesday 4th May 2011, @adamssangel said: @gqfashion I don't mind that GQ feels that it can comment with authority on the fashion scene or compare the sartorial styles of the modern male, but to add the personal, undercutting, mean-spirited intention in your comments to Adam Lambert in your recent Tweet, calling his fashion choice at the ASCAP Awards "the shocking, gay vampire shtick", is going decidedly too far. I'm sure you know that all of Adam Lambert's fans consider him one of the best-dressed, and certainly, the most beautiful man who has ever been in the entertainment industry, and the nicest. I wonder what GQ Fashion had in mind by shooting these remarks across the bow at Adam (and to his fandom)? And why did you mention his "gayness" as being part of his "shtick"? Many of Adam Lambert's fans have suffered in silence reading all the myriad comments directed against Adam in the pettiest way, but really, yours takes the cake. At the very least, I think GQ should apologize to Adam...because your remark was not only a comment on the fashion scene (which you have every right to make), but it was a personal statement against Adam, meaning to hurt. And this remark is coming from what I had always viewed as a responsible, mature organization and leading fashion magazine, but with this remark, comes off as nothing more than another cheap Hollywood rag. I truly hope you will extend your apologies to Adam, and in the future, take into account that no one anywhere is dressing with such style, elan, panache, and sheer masculine beauty, as Adam Lambert. I’m not on twitter or any social media (fear of the big time suck!), but if I were to say something to GQ it would be this: Gay is neither a style nor a lifestyle, it is a sexual orientation, a minority one, but still simply one of many possible orientations. Styles can be worn by anyone of any orientation! To link a particular style with a particular sexual orientation is crazy, but means your unintended (and possibly unaware) bias is showing! Oops GQ! Time to rethink! |

It is interesting how there are still certain topics/people that it "seems" okay to make fun off (and thankfully less and less) being gay, being fat, any others ?? Glad it's getting less and less, because the older I get the less funny it seems to me :( :-/  |

: : : RT @finney4: oic GQ deleted their tweet to AdamI don't think they should have deleted the tweet. If they thought the tweet. If they had a change of heart, I would have preferred that they state why. They could continue to disagree with Adam's fashion choice, but just say why. Deleting the tweet is like hoping that it all didn't happen. GQ is allowed to have whaterver opinion they want to have, but just own it. Join in with the humour of Adam's tweets. Don't run off scared of what will happen to your magazine circulation. |

^^^my sentiments exactly. I hope Terrence appreciates what we've had to endure to see him. I feel like an old person. When I was young you had to really be able to sing to get a record contract.Please don't mention Annette Funicello or Milli Vanilli. Awww please let me mention Annette. I idolized her! I couldn't wait to get home from school every day to see her on the Mickey Mouse Club. She was one of the original Mouseketeers. |
