IMO......... when I see the term "GB", bile rises in the back of my throat. I find it demeaning and childish. I highly doubt that adam would find it "endearing". I totally agree with this but have been afraid to say it and be deemed critical of other fans' choices. I guess people consider it all in fun, but it's really objectifying. How many of us would like to have people leering at our breasts (or crotches!) for example? Would we feel the same if some fandom was forever commenting on a female musician that way? Yes, Adam is sexy and sexual, but he's always seemed to me to be a little uncomfortable when "the GB" is mentioned (thank god rarely) in interviews. I'm not, so much, complaining about the leering at his crotch lol. because, lbh, that's sometimes what he's going for. it's strictly just the term I hate |

"He gets plenty." -AL, in response to a fan's meme of his 'GB' finally getting 'attention' Also, "It ain't that deep."  I can't pinpoint the exact time or quote, but he's also mentioned being "objectified," so... Bit whatever. Maybe "it ain't that deep," but IMO it's weird to me. Whatever. A thought I just had... Isn't it interesting how all of us project our own perception of a situation onto Adam as if he shares each of our varied opinions on his life & feelings based on a couple of quotes we pull at our convenience? Like if we're uncomfortable with something, we find a way to believe he is too & if we're not concerned about something, we find a way to justify thinking he isn't either? We all do it & we do it as if it's in his 'defense'. In that spirit, I'm going to try to stop pretending to know how Adam feels about stupid things & stick to expressing my own opinion. Anyway, I too am sad the "lewdless as usual" comment is gone. It made me legit LOL. |

Happy New Year and Bonne Heureuse Année to all Atopers! I wonder how it can get any better but I trust it will. No better way to start the year off than with a new desktop photo - you know which one I mean.

Adam brought up the subject of the Glambulge himself in an interview, he wasn't prompted so there was no need for him to do so if it offended him in any way. This is Adam, we're talking about, remember!   |

Does anyone else remember Adam responding to a question about his favorite "part" of himself with GB? Interview with "Jim Cantiello" of MTV ...sometime after the historic season of Idol finished. Adam was wearing a bright blue/black plaid shirt. Might take a bit to find the YouTube. Edit: I do not think this is the interview you may be thinking of as I think Adam just implied that was his fav body part. Having no luck finding it... A lot of his articles are still around but the vids attached to the interviews are not in Jim's old " news site". Someone may have more luck in finding the video. |

We do a lot of guessing on this board as to what Adam likes or not, posted or not, etc etc etc. I thinks he knows he has a solid fan base and gets a kick out of all of it, no matter what we're talking about! That's my guess anyway! lol I find it ridiculous that some think they know how he feels. Someone on this board said "this is Adam we're talking about", and I agree. I love raunchy, glitter, glam Adam and hope he's not conforming just evolving! He will do what he has to do to perform certain places but he will remain true to himself I believe!  |

I remember Adam saying he didn't post on the "Adam Lambert" FB himself...IDK if that's still the case, but it could be... "Lewdless" comment was PERFECT imo, so too bad it is gone now, regardless of who actually had written it... oh well... I don't recall him ever saying he did not ever post to FB. However, it sometimes it is clear someone else does post for him there. The 'lewdless' comment in almost certainly him. That is not a PR post. I bet That was Adam. IMO - He frequently posts the snark knowing the uber fans will see it and catch the comment. He then edits so that trollers and media don't pick it up. |

Yes, Adam is sexy and sexual, but he's always seemed to me to be a little uncomfortable when "the GB" is mentioned (thank god rarely) in interviews. I think it comes down to variations of "boundaries" within the fandom and different understandings of humor, but I get easily creeped out when Adam's GB gets discussed. I too find it objectifying, so I would stay away from such discussions. Still, I find him very sexy in fitted pants, preferably leather pants, but it's more the whole appearance versus the focus on one body part. The GMA outfit is still my favorite to date. |
