@alisanporter happy birthday! This BBQ is coming correct!

Thankful, many translations were offered within minutes.
Translations range from “This BBQ is off the hook” to “This BBQ is fun”.

Adam Lambert, Lady Gaga Tweet Support For Gay Marriage
BY ON TOP MAGAZINE STAFF
PUBLISHED: JUNE 20, 2011



As New York inches closer to possibly legalizing gay marriage, singers Adam Lambert and Lady Gaga tweet their support.

Lambert, the 29-year-old openly gay runner-up of American Idol season 8, messaged on Sunday to his more than 1 million followers a link to his website featuring a quote from comedian-actress Liz Feldman: “It's very dear to me, the issue of gay marriage. Or, as I like to call it: 'marriage.' You know, because I had lunch this afternoon, not gay lunch. I parked my car, I didn't gay park it.”

“Exactly,” Lambert said. “If we want to progress as a society we have to begin to focus on how we are the same and now how we're different.”

Adam Lambert Glams Up "American Idol."




"While Adam Lambert didn't make his sexuality a major talking point while competing on "American Idol" -- he later came out in a "Rolling Stone" cover story -- "Idol" viewers and fans at home knew there was something special about the flamboyant contestant.

Lambert was out in his personal and professional life well before he hit the "Idol" stage and made his mark as the contestant to watch. On the show, he fired up audiences with his glam rock stylings, sexed-up stage persona and multi-octave range. Though he finished the 2009 season of "Idol" in second place, he remianed the season's breakout star. His major label debut album "For Your Entertainment" has sold more than 800,000 copies in the U.S. and earned him a Grammy Award nomination for the No. 10 Hot 100 hit "Whataya Want From Me." -- Keith Caulfield"

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 ¨C The voting structure makes a write-in vote very timeconsuming.
Fan value: 2
RECOMMENDATION ¨C 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 ¨C 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.
