Thank you Adam for this wonderful pic from M&G in Warsaw - one of the best TOHT concerts ever!

Coming from Moser, I'd call that a rave review.

Very strange article. Misleading in "facts", a misrepresentation of Adam, and very poorly written. Is this a legitimate news site? I doubt it...

Interesting... I saw he also favorited tweet from Dustin Lance Black "Hey @samsmithworld, if you have no idea who I am, it may be time to stop texting my fiancé. Here's a start: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfPXcCroPJc …" It's first time I see Adam being anyhow negative about SS, I think he probably didn't hear properly his speech when he wrote those tweets he later deleted. Have not heard the speech myself but I saw quite of criticism of it on the internet. Eta: still did not find the speech but heard his performance and have to say he sounded rather bad to me. I don't see it as negative at all. He sees it as something funny. I think the tweet is kind of funny. Like whoopsy funny

Morning Musings...It's amazing to me ,How Sam Smith is following in Adele's footsteps.. Award after award,etc. In a way I feel for SS ,not for his succss which is amazing ,but for his being rather unprepared for it.. He's very young,23, and probably was a tot when Milk came out and was he even born when Elton John won the Oscar.. Not looking this stuff up ,so please don't fault me .IMHO opinion Sam just should say thank you when he wins an award unless he comes fully prepared ..Other than that I did like him saying he is a proud gay man.. Hopefully, Every LGBTQ successful artist helps to open doors for the rest of the Gay Community. The more the better..Just seems like there are more gay singers hitting the charts. Yep, his speech was a miss because of that blunder, despite his intentions, which I think we're good, though evidently seen as too little too late by some, and it all evidently got him into it even deeper with so many people taking to Twitter to task him for it as well as for his performance. Ah, well - he won. I wonder if he wishes he hadn't. So much flak in Adam's business: Gaga got it for being listed as a co-writer on the song she performed, for her Bowie tribute, for a zillion aspects of her career really, Adam too for you name it, Sam Smith for some of the same things - armor-thick skin they all need to have. Adam's first and, I thought, generous tweet resonated with me - I'm surprised he deleted it and wonder why though I know I'll never know. Disclaimer: I still love him, it's his Twitter, his prerogative, etc. not a criticism, I just wonder. Maybe the deletions were to stop the piling on from fans who were @ing Gaga and Sam in their replies bashing him for his support and them for existing. It was pretty ugly for a while.

Don't people have anything else going on in their lives that might be more interesting.....?

This is SS response backstage. Now, he thinks he's only the second gay to win an Oscar. lol. Good morning. I am sorry but, especially after seeing this, I feel SS is an arrogant totally classless self absorbed *&%##$@! (Please fill in the blank with words of your own choice) Here he had an opportunity to rectify his mistake and acts like (to me) a complete tasteless idiot. Meaning no disrespect to those who feel different, I am not buying the 'well he's only 23 years old' thing. He's old enough to be respectful of others who have paved the way so he can stand up there...I guess you can't teach CLASS and SENSITIVITY....you just have to be born with it as part of your being.JMHO ETA:
Robert Kessler @robertkessler 12h12 hours ago Sam Smith's gonna win a Pulitzer for his book "So You Won an Oscar But You Looked Like a Massive Douche in the Process..."

You can post your opinion of Sam Smith and be frank, but please be respectful of members who do not agree with you. Thanks!
I have no opinion on the matter. I happily missed the whole thing and decided that the Oscars were not worth my time this year. I have no interest in watching a lot of super-rich spoiled, self-centered people give each other awards and then lecture people about political views and fairness while they maintain the least democratic (small d, not the party), least representative arts academies in the world.
