Love the new Roadies episode! These are really fun and very informative. Just goes to show that it takes a full team of pros to put on a show of this size. The scuba thing was very funny! Adam was sexy as hell in that show, soaking wet and just nailing it every second. That "Get Down Make Love" was beyond sexy.
I sure hope Adam wins a GLAAD award. He tends to not win awards, period. But Velvet is so outstanding and has gotten huge praise from many big sources, I hope this time is the charm. And I hope The Grammys wake up and give Velvet at least a nom. Velvet deserves one easily as much as any of the albums out there.
Thanks for the FEVER clip! That is one great song! I hope Adam keeps it in his set-list forever! It's a highlight for me.
So sad about Naya. The outcome does not look hopeful. Adam did a group song with her on Glee.

So sad about Naya. The outcome does not look hopeful. Adam did a group song with her on Glee. GLAAD tends to give awards to the higher profile at the moment. Adam was up against GaGa and others early in his career and of course it went to GaGa. Then he was up against Frank Ocean and to my delight and surprise they were co-winners and Adam received an additional special award. For TOH he was up against Troye who looked as if he was going to break big but didn't and Troye won. Now Lil Nas put up huge numbers and with the whole BLM (don't know when the voting took place) he would seem hard to beat, imo. Would love to be surprised tho as Adam has been more supportive of GLAAD and his community than many others who win. And Velvet is fantastic. Speaking of the Grammy's, Brittany Howard, who is also up for the GLAAD award, just had 2 Grammy nominations. She is with an independent labels so I guess there is hope for Adam. But she was not in the pop category but up for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance. No way he will get a nom. in pop but I sure hope they try to enter him in another category because Velvet is so good and worthy of some attention. The last time I checked, Velvet had a Metacritic score of 83 from the reviewers, which is really good. I was so glad not to see a review from the Guardian (UK) cause they always score Adam so low that it brings his average scored down to the 70s. I think several times they have scored his albums as low as 40 or 50 when others put him in the 80s. But 70 is still a good score. Most of his albums scored higher than Carrie's but she still wins her Grammy's so that is the more important thing, lol.

lurleene, I try to be realistic but I still have hope. Somehow, Adam just can't break through this roadblock no matter how good his music is. I wasn't even aware of this Metacritic score thing. Guess I've been living under a rock. LOL Seems like it's really important in the reviewing world. His music gets good reviews overall. And his music is every bit as good as the top winners. I know we've all said this for years. He deserves so much more attention in the awards area. Awards DO matter because they give an artist cred in the public eye. Talent is only one factor in winning one. We all know that.
Just keeping my hopes up. I'm an eternal optimist. In the meantime, Adam is better than ever, awards or no awards.
