BTW, could we start working on an Atop assisted living/nursing home for those of us who may need it somewhere down the road? Lots of laptops, DVD players and planned road trips for tours, plus great company. We'd never be bored or lonely and I bet we'd live a really long time! Absolutely and what a great idea! I'm in! ME TOO.. |

That's because Rathbone actually had fans voting! If needed, I am pretty sure that Adam fans can show up with >100K votes. But hard to be motivated to vote when the competition is John Mayer and no one is voting for him. I cannot see alt rock fans bothering with these kind of polls at all. Pop, R&B and Urban artists, and Movie/TV Celebrities seem to be the hardest competition. Looks like if Adam gets thru this he will be up against Rob Thomas next and should make the final. On the other side -- my guess is that it will come down to Bruno vs. Jackson Rathbone. (Bruno Mars fans do vote when needed, but I really doubt they can beat Jackson.) I hope it is Adam vs. Bruno with Adam winning. But think it will come down to Adam vs. Jackson -- and that will be hard to win. Should generate a ton of hits for Mix 94 FM one way or the other. |

How many dimmer switches did Adam earn last year??? HAI 35A00-1CS 600W Dimmer Switch - Case of 12 $950 or $79.17 each Electrician - installations $40 each $6,000,000 less taxes, manager, lawyer, accountant and agent fees, and other stuff leaves at least $3,000,000 or 25,174 dimmer switches!! What no image of Adam with a tool belt on in your mind? Or perhaps sauli is handy with tools? I thought you had a better imagination than that.  |

On the Forbes estimated $6 million. These numbers are not very accurate -- Carrie is estimated at $20 million on the Idol list and $15 million on the Forbes entertainers under 30 list -- both for the same period of time. Link to other estimate: www.forbes.com/2011/06/09/top-earning-celebrities-under-30_slide_20.htmlI take it as an estimate that directional -- Adam had a good year and his entire tour fits into that time period. He will not make as much this year, not even close, because he is not touring. _______ Regarding endorsements -- setting aside the Idol deals (Ford and Disney) -- Adam has had a few here and there -- a bronzer (online only), the Italian watch ad, but no major endorsement deals. Adam also has not scored a major tour sponsor yet but may get one for his next tour. (Some tour stops in Asia had sponsors.) It all depends on how well Adam #2 does and if he moves up to arenas and if he wants to be involved with endorsements/sponsors. I would rather see him come up with his own designer clothing and accessory line, than be a spokesmodel for some product. And I really do not want him to be endorsing a weight loss program or cosmetics, fragrances or treatments. Vodka would be nice. |

random: it is 101F in NYC and "FEELS like 112F" according to weather.com.... I am sceeerrrd".... I'm on Long Island and my thermometer (outside in the shade) is at around 104. Un-fucking-believable! You literally get nauseous when you walk outside. Thank God we're heading to Rocky Mountain National Park tonight for a week. I'm a Florida girl and love the heat, but this is totally ridiculous. No breeze either. I'm actually rubbing my dog down with ice packs. Have a great week everyone. |

Am I the only one who has never heard of Jackson Rathbone? I used to have such scorn for older people who were ignorant of pop culture. Now I am one of them.  |
