Her Story

So many of you Adam fans have tweeted me and so I think I should talk more about what happened this afternoon!

I went to the British Library today and after coming out of it, I decided to walk to the Camden Market. On the street right outside the St Pancras train station, I noticed a guy in black with sunglasses walking towards me. He’s talking on the phone. I don’t know why but a voice inside me sort of came up,” Oh this guy really looks like Adam Lambert!”

Then he passed by me and I HEARD THAT AMERICAN ACCENT. This’s very distinguishable when you’re in London isn’t it? So I turned to look at him and guess what? I saw some guyliners behind those sunglasses! At that point I was almost sure it really WAS Adam Lambert.

This froze me on the ground and I struggled for a while whether I should approach him and get things clear or not. In the end of course I did. Since Adam had already gone for some distance, I had to pick up my pace to catch up with him.

He just finished his phone call when I got back to him. So I got up my nerve and asked rather timidly, “Excuse me, are you... Adam?”

“Yes!”

Oh my god! Never in my life would I expect to bump into one of my favourite singers on the street and therefore, I had no idea what I could say!

“OMG, it really is you... Ermerm, I went to your gig in Hong Kong last year!”

Sh*t, I was so stupid.

But Adam’s really nice and sweet. He just kept smiling and thanked me and then told me his bag was broken (he’s carrying a paper bag).

Are you on holiday?”

“Yes... oh but no, I’m also working here. I’m working on some new songs now.”

I then asked if I could have a picture with him. He said “sure” and I took out my camera. Since there’s no one we knew around, Adam said, “Let’s see if we can do it on our own!” I pressed the button took the photo. We did it.

AND AFTER THIS HE REACHED OUT HIS RIGHT HAND. Awwww how nice was he! Isn’t it I should be the one who asked for shaking hands with him? We shook hand and he said “Have a nice day” to me.

“You too! Thanks so so much!”

Yes, thank you very much indeed. Actually I don’t live in London I’m just a visitor there-- it was damn lucky of me to have met a favourite musician of mine in a foreign place! Now my trip is just beyond perfect, I know



Here’s the picture. For your eyes’ sake, I’ve chopped myself off. LOL

Voting Opportunities

I have changed my recommendation on VH1 Do Something Awards to DO NOT VOTE
5.27.11 by Q3

On 5.25.11 I recommended voting in this competition. Since then I have done some additional research and testing.

1. Voting for the celebrity online awards is just a way to build awareness for the real awards show.

2, Adam is not nominated for any award. The only way to vote for Adam is as a write-in. It takes much longer to cast a write-in vs. voting for a nominee. There is no limit on voting. So 10 minutes of Adam fan voting time can be wiped out in about 1 minute by someone voting for a nominee.

Poll rating (0=lowest rating, 10=highest rating)

Adam benefit: 3 – a win could raise awareness of The Trevor Project.
Fairness: 3 - there is an attempt to limit voting for just one category but it is very easy to work around.
Potential to win: 9 – The voting structure makes a write-in vote very timeconsuming.
Fan value: 2
RECOMMENDATION – vote only if you are willing to work really hard.


About the awards: DoSomething.org and VH1 have partnered to present The Do Something Awards to honor young people's commitment to social change. VH1 is doing a series of online contests to promote this event – they have nominees but also accept write-ins. One of the celebrity categories could help Adam but, more importantly make a difference.

The category: Charity Song

The write-in: @adamlambert for "Aftermath Remix" and mention the Trevor Project.

You need to sign in on Twitter or Facebook to vote.

Below the SUBMIT button, it says:

“Did we miss your favorite?
NOMINATE YOUR OWN!”

Clink on “NOMINATE YOUR OWN!” and you will get a voting pop-up window.

Note: If you send a really clever tweet, VH1 may retweet it.
