I miss those Forbes stats as well! Not that I care how he compares to other idols, but I do care how well he is doing... I am sure 2017 was a very good year financially for him...with the 52 QAL dates and Think for Captain Underpants voice over Adam probably made over 5 Mil... I am hoping for around 100K per QAL show... after taxes he'll still have 2-3 Mil I guess... He made 10m million the last big QAL tour, so I am sure he is over 5 million this time too.

That account doesn't really look familiar to me, but when I clicked on the link this came up: "You are blocked from following @cherrylambert0 and viewing @cherrylambert0's Tweets" Huh? I am blocked too. You can still block and report the account. Did both. Moving forward though, I am wondering how effective it is to report bullies that keep re-opening new accounts. I am sure that Adam has learned to ignore negative energy, and hopefully he knows that a huge majority of his fans support him living his life the way he chooses to do.

True!!! Am I the only one who misses those Forbes list for highest earning Idols? I was so looking forward to the next one after the high of Adam coming in 1st. Carrie would have been 1st on that next list but I really think Adam would have been second. Yes, I miss them! We never got the year that included S America! Yep, 2016 would have included the QAL S. America tour. Adam's TOH tour (He made 6mil Glamnation/5 mil Trespassing so I am guessing in the same area for TOH). Also at least 10 of the QAL European Festival tour dates would have covered that period. I think he would have surpassed the 10 mil when he topped the list by a bit. But I read on a Country earnings chart than Carrie made 26 mil that year for the part of her tours that were covered, so that is why I put him second. But they were fun and interesting and not for comparison of other Idols. Just love to see his hard work is paying off.

I always find it weird, when people here discuss, how much money Adam makes. It‘s just an observation from my „outlandish“ point of view (no criticism!). In Germany we don’t speak about how much money we earn or have. I can only speculate, even when it comes to closer relatives. There aren’t lists like that from Forbes (other than these from the US, which get posted here). Sometimes some yellow press speculate about some VIP‘s money, but they can only speculate. So I don’t really think about these kind of things. The same goes for houses. I was shocked, when I found out , that there are (I guess only in LA) tours, that show the houses of VIPs. Or that you can find almost everybody’s addresses and former addresses (+other information like birthdays, telephone numbers or workplaces) in the internet. I mean, with Facebook many people give these information away for free, but really?😳 When I think of Adam’s future house, I don’t think he really has a chance to keep it a secret. He can just choose a house, where nobody can get without his knowledge. Or leave the country.(I don’t think he is going to do that.) So, just my two cents to the „dancing money cats“. It’s weird to me, but nevertheless I‘m happy, Adam can live a happy life! It is weird to me too. I am German and have lived in the US for more than two decades now, but the lack of privacy especially when it comes to someone's home is quite startling to me.

At least in New Jersey, anything one would want to know about ownership of property is available online through the tax assessors' website. You can search by street address, owner name or tax block and lot. Other states are not quite as easy. But I could still find Adam's property details on government websites.
I don't know where income information comes from. Strikes me that it's tied to promotion.

I had to look up the dates for the $10 million Forbes figure....posted in Jan 2016...they call it 2015 and ran from May/June of 2014 to June 2015 I think. I know we discussed it all back then. WAs just trying to refresh my mind as to how many QAL shows were during that period...plus other things. Looking back.....we had the US and Asian tour in summer/fall of 2014...33 shows..... BBC NYE BigBen Concert..... then the EU and UK QAL shows in 2015 Jan and Feb 2015....24 or 25 shows I think. www.eonline.com/news/728624/adam-lambert-tops-forbes-list-of-highest-earning-american-idol-winners-how-he-beat-carrie-underwoodWas trying to see how that period and number of QAL concerts that comprised the $10 million figure compares to the period since then. $10 million divided by 57/58 concerts is roughly $175,000 per concert. Since then, he's done 52 more concerts in 2017, and XFactor, and the TOH tour and the So American tour and the EU festivals since June 2015 or over the last 2 1/2 years. I'm sure I'm forgetting something. So, his bank account should be in really good shape. lol I don't remember his earnings from Forbes from 2009 thru May 2014. Anybody know that amount? Just curious. Trying to get an approximate grand total for 2009 thru 2017.

When Forbes posts re Adam's income --- there are many other sources of income beyond his own touring and QAL that add into that 6 million or 10 million in earnings. So what he earns for each concert cannot be the only divisible items into the total....which is probably not complete anyway. Plus between taxes and management fees , publicity company which he dropped in the past year, accountants...well it all adds up for deductions. In the end he still makes a lot more than ME! With many more zeros in bankable income.
Yet, it is not all touring that gets the zeros up there.
One year he was one of three spokespersons for a computer game, another year he was used as a spokesperson for China's singles day ( bedding company). Then there was The Macy's advertising plus Oreo cookies. Beyond that he must get some residuals from the Trespassing, TOH albums. He participated in one off concerts and events. I have no idea if he gets paid for Pride week appearance ..or just expenses..or he considers it a donation, but he would get some income from a few of those. I am only referring to more recent years. ( I really wonder what one would negotiate for a video and song like Time for Miracles song.)

Thanks bamafan for posting the new Summer Sonic YT!
On a totally trivia note, I happened to watch the 2012 Pitch Perfect movie last night. In one scene in a radio station the male lead Jesse holds up a vinyl copy of For Your Entertainment. Fun seeing that as it was totally unexpected...
