Glad to have learned the Oscar votes were in on Jan 14/19. There is a full page in one of our daily newspapers about Brian May's tweet, GLAAD not endorsing BR movie, and the latest company spokesperson that hired B. Singer for Red Sonja--- saying--they know the difference between agenda driven fake news and reality, that he is a brilliant director/ not firing him/ innocent until proven guilty. (Also praised BR final product.) All three perspectives were shared. No need to re discuss this topic. At least I hope not. Just informing. More fun Adam things to focus on. No discussion but unfortunately that was the final voting date for the nominations. The final date for the award voting is Feb. 19. www.goldderby.com/article/2019/2019-oscar-nominations-january-22-academy-awards-ceremony-february-24/Feb. 12 – Oscars: Final Voting OpenFeb. 19 – Oscars: Final Voting ClosesWell...thank you...My brain obviously mis cued on the whole " final voting for the nominations". Haha I merrily assumed it meant the vote on those nominated...not even putting the pieces together, that it is tough to vote before the nominations are even announced. 😜 Cart before the horse! Old age creeping more and more into my reality...Duh!

His hair definitely looks like a "work in progress" to me, if in fact it leads anywhere at all. It drives me crazy just watching him pull it out of his face all the time, and I wish I could put that top layer in a pony tail for him haha. Having said that, he is sexy as hell and simply divine and I would be inclined to sell my house to have him sing to me like that. Btw. I think he needed to wear that suit in order to not be "too hot to handle". Good to see Adam sight-see. And I am glad he found his Antinous The suit was definitely a good choice in several ways. I had to laugh about the image of Adam with a ponytail. Didn’t he say, he will never wear a man-bun? But yeah, the hair at this length is irritating. I think, that one contestant on X-Factor Australia had that Problem and Adam and the other judges kept mocking him a bit...

Nice that they think Queen should do the SB but not sure why they think they would need to add any of these other acts. The only one they left off was Panic at the Disco, lol. I think Queen and Adam could do the job just just fine. ultimateclassicrock.com/super-bowl-rock-snubs/HOW COME THESE 10 ROCK ARTISTS HAVE NEVER PLAYED THE SUPER BOWL? This year, the NFL decided to go with Maroon 5 as its headliner - another pop band with broad national appeal, but whose credibility within the rock world seems to be lacking. Even as rock’s biggest acts continue to sell-out arenas and headline major festivals, the NFL excludes them from the biggest event in sports. Rather than question the league’s choice for this year’s entertainment, we at UCR would like to look ahead to future Super Bowls. Below are 10 candidates, all bonafide stars who could handle the massive halftime show spotlight. The next five years will see the big game played in Miami, Tampa, Los Angeles, Phoenix and New Orleans. Our hope is that some of these artists will be given the halftime show honor at one of those events: Queen It could be argued that Queen is currently the biggest rock band on Earth. The ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ movie has given the group new pop-culture life and their appeal stretches across multiple generations. Imagine the surprise guests their Super Bowl halftime show could include. Obviously, longtime collaborator Adam Lambert would start on vocals. From there, a who’s-who of music’s stars would be lined up to participate in the performance. Foo Fighters inducted the band into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, have recorded with Brian May and Roger Taylor and even joined Queen on stage for a 'VH1 Rock Honors' performance, to say nothing of regularly performing "Under Pressure." The Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan, Metallica’s James Hetfield, and Muse frontman Matt Bellamy have all expressed their dream of performing with Queen. Add them to the list. The collaborations wouldn’t even be limited to rockers. Two of pop’s brightest stars, and former halftime show headliners, have unequivocally declared their Queen fandom. Katy Perry has referred to Freddie Mercury as her ‘biggest influence.’ And picture Lady Gaga joining the band on stage to perform “Radio Gaga” (the inspiration for her name). The mere concept should have the NFL giddy with excitement. If QAL did perform at the Super Bowl (and I don't think they will) I would NOT want any other performers muddying up the stage. Sure, there are some singers who are very good and who have even performed with Queen in the past. But the only QAL show I want is Adam and Brian and Roger and the band. Plain and simple and perfect.

I'll bet anything that he's planning to grow it long enough to tuck behind his ears where will stay without pushing it back all the time. It's just in that awkward in-between stage. I predict that he will grow it pretty long, maybe for almost another year. His hair grows pretty fast. He wants a whole new look. And if he gets tired of it really fast, he can cut it off!

I think, that one contestant on X-Factor Australia had that Problem and Adam and the other judges kept mocking him a bit... I just rewatched that WWL vid and his hands were in his hair nonstop. He said no to the man bun and the top knot. I'd be willing to forgive him a ponytail for now (similar to man bun but not one). He looks really good in hats.....maybe a nice fedora or something like that white hat from Morongo. What he'd probably prefer is a backwards ball cap which would do the trick. lol But that's only with casual clothes. I keep thinking what will his hair look like in 6 months for QAL. Gonna be interesting.

I think that Queen would make a stellar half-time act. But it seems unlike that the entire half-time show would be a classic rock band whose audience is primarily over 50. Superbowl advertisers care about people under 50.
That said, the list of collaborators listed in that article (except for Katy and Lady Gaga) would not help much.
The Superbowl in 2020 will be in Miami. They are already working on having a Miami-themed (Capital of Latin America) Superbowl. Not sure how that fits with Queen.
