So very happy for Brian and Roger and especially Rami. Rami gave a very heartfelt acceptance speech and deserved his win, imo. I would not expect anything other than a meltdown from GaGa fans. Would not expect anything other than disbelief from all the critics who did not succeed in convincing everyone that BR was a awful movie without exploitation of Freddie. BR is winning at the box office and they can't change that but I'm sure they are not thrilled that they are also being nominated and winning awards. I'm with you. The critics are probably thinking WTF? ASIB was a skillfully done, heartfelt story performed by excellent actors. It really deserves recognition. But it didn't touch me like BoRhap did. I predict that ASIB will do much better at the Oscars. But I also hope that BR wins a few Oscars, too. Two different parts of the movie spectrum, both with a lot to offer. Hope there was an after-party that maybe Adam got to attend. He's Queen's front man, after all. As I said in last night's post, Adam is reaping the benefits of BR's success in his own way. More than anything, I want 2019 to be a turning-point year for him with new recognition and exposure that lift him up to a new level of success. Those 2019 QAL audiences better take note at what they are seeing and hearing. Adam is really worth their attention. Just to throw a wrench into things I don't think this is going to lessen the "he isn't Freddie" memes, it might intensify them.

Jablea... "Just to throw a wrench into things I don't think this is going to lessen the 'he isn't Freddie' memes, it might intensify them." - I thought about that too. No doubt that comparisons of all sorts will continue. But the tour has been selling well, so I am sure that Adam is up to the challenge more than ever.

The "he is not Freddie" is annoying but for all these years, QAL have been selling out arenas with Adam and it continues. None of that has stopped fans from buying tickets to see Adam front the band. None of that has stopped Adam from being celebrated for his voice and showmanship. What is the worst that can happen? Someone will say HINF and others will say, of course he is not cause he is Adam Lambert. See no downside for Adam with the popularity of the movie.
