Duet rumors continue to spin around the web
6.4.11 by Q3

Well there is no new news about the rumor -- just the same tidbit tweeted by 933FM FLZ Tampa Bay Florida. We'll see what happens later today.


Sia is the only person related to Adam's album project who has responded directly to the rumor. After she received a ton of tweets from Adam and even more from Xtina fans about the duet rumor, she tweeted this:

siamusic sia furler
adam and xtina are not working together. i am working with both of them separately. i haven't even started with xtina yet. kay?
3 Jun

The later in the day she tweeted this....

siamusic sia furler
Adam just texted me. Def no collab with xtina planned, although he said he would love to.
around 5:00PM PDT 6.3.11


In the meantime, the rumor was picked up by gossip sites around the world and finally Perez Hilton picked up the rumor.



It seems less and less likely that this rumor is true but it is generating a bit of buzz for Adam and Xtina and that is not bad.





I want to create my own Adam album
6.4.11 by Q3

Perhaps Adam should let fans create their own album.

Yesterday, the Kaiser Chiefs, an English indie rock band, released their fourth album, “The Future Is Medieval”. The album is being sold through their website as a “create your own” album. Check it out here: www.kaiserchiefs.com/album-gallery

There are 3 simple steps to create a Kaiser Chief’s album:

1. Select 10 out of 20 possible tracks. (And you put them in the order you want.)

2. Design your own cover.

3. Pay and download your album.

Then you get a webpage where you can sell your custom album to other fans. Or you can browse through other peoples’ albums.

After fans have the fun of creating and sharing their own version of the album, they can share their version of the record with other people and earn £1 each time you album is purchased by someone else.

Can you imagine with Adam fan albums would be like? For starters, there would need to be a 20 song option, because who would ever want to leave a song behind? And think of the covers!!!

This is a unique promotion for an album and it is really suited to his digitally-connected, passionate, creative fans. Just change the promotion so that the $1 per album goes to an official Adam charity and I think it would be perfect.




What does that mean??
6.4.11 by Q3

We now have migrated the Adamtopia Dictionary from old ATop to this site.

Thanks to miachihu (AKA Mia) for consolidating the old ATop and my original PF dictionaries into one reference set, then adding in many missing items. The consolidation incorporates the work of many fans and the original actually goes back to March 2009, long before anyone had conceived of Adamtopia.

There are three sections:

1. DICTIONARY (of Adamized words)

2. ADAM-RELATED ACRONYMS OR TERMS

3. STANDARD CHAT, E-MAIL, WEB, TWITTER AND COMMENT SLANG AND ACRONYMS

So check out this amazing piece of work and post if you have additions or an alternate definition. Here is the link to the thread: www.adamtopia.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=announcement&thread=350&page=1

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.
