And hello and welcome back to KathleenPF. I was so glad to see you posting here today, always liked your posts over on the other site, but don't think I have seen you around much since.  aww, thank you! Haven't posted in ages, busy with RL and trying to make my dreams come true but I check in all the time and I love reading everyone's comments when I can. Probably won't post much but I'm still as much an AFL fan as ever and I'll follow you guys no matter where you set up home! (*ahem* hopefully that doesn't sound too stalkerish! :  |

Well, he did call for a huddle in that one pap vid,  And he looked so cute doing it. And I think a short time after he said huddle, then he said "break." Cracked me up! |

maybe I'm a glass half full kind of person but I don't see Adam's team as some mafioso type machine where it's all or nothing. Adam has used fan art for his twitter avi. AO happily hightlights and display the various fan paintings and drawings. I think Adam and his team are very aware of the creative genius that resides within his fanbase and I think if they could figure out a way to harness it they would. That said, I'm betting the majority of the creative people within the fandom would give him their ideas for free without expectation of anything more than bragging rights that Adam used their design. It's not a mafioso team, it's a business. And with a business comes contracts. Bidding processes, no-compete clauses, copyright issues, and the like. Many people are willing to give their ideas for nothing. It's not always that way down the line when the same person may feel taken advantage of. Just saying that it's not as simple as it seems. There's a reason these kinds of things are not already done. edit: the avi thing cannot be used as an example. it is not something done for profit. big diff there. Well this isn't something I really concern myself with as a fan. I don't care who designs his merch or if it all matches. I just want Adam's pretty face on stuff that I can buy. |

So, I am personally coming up on the two year anniversary of some bizarre form of love at first sight, experienced through the random flipping of channels while in a hotel room in Mexico City looking for anything in English. It hit me like a two by four and I'm still reeling! In between then and now, I have been nothing short of totally, consistently, wildly and deeply....ENTERTAINED!! Entertained by this unique man in all his incarnations, by his gorgeous voice and his wild stage antics, by his consistent poking at established conventions from hot boys on his arm to blue in his hair, by his crazy outfits and his frayed suits, by his attempts to navigate his path to stardom which sometimes works beyond what one would ever imagine and sometimes madly crashes and burns, by the the creative, kind and funny fans here at ATOP, and (yes, even this) by the discovery of the astonishing world of Idol and the obsessive love/hate/entitlement emotions it seems to generate (I mean....seriously, who knew????). And throughout it all...."I have never questioned my visceral reaction" (TM Ms Abdul) I am just along for the ride and am enjoying it immensely And of course, ILHSFM A great big "ditto" here ( except for the Mexico City part; LOL)!! |
