Just took a look at MTV Most Popular Videos. The Adam/Queen medley is still listed on Most Shared (#12), Highest Rated (#17) and Most Comments (#1!!!) Also on Most Comments, Adam has EIGHT more listings on that page! Either the Berts are Berting their hearts out or there is some real new interest - the EMAs were seven weeks ago... www.mtv.com/most-popular/music-videos/?metric=numberOfComments&range=today&order=descETA: The ratings are for the last 24 hours. |

If we send Harvey at TMZ anything, send this picture of Adam.
I think Harvey made an ass of himself, and I think his crew let him know it. And they let him know it in front of the camera. We saw and heard it and Harvey just looked stupid.

In case anyone from TMZ ever visits here...
----------------------------------------
Harvey wants attention. He is the master at getting attention. His life revolves around getting attention. Harvey is presently wielding a double edged sword and instead of gaining respect he is going to lose it in a large way and he is going to end up hurting his own rather than helping. Domestic abuse is an important issue. Obviously Harvey wants to do something with integrity. However, using Adam's name and reputation in a degrading and exploitive manner for the so called benefit of this issue and the so called benefit of the gay community smacks of inauthenticity and a serious lack of integrity.
Exploiting Adam's vulnerabilities is not going to help the gay community. Exploiting other people's vulnerabilities only increases fears. Fears of all the people who, like you Harvey, pull people like Adam down by exploiting weak moments. We all do stupid things. We all do extremely stupid things at some point. If you want to have integrity Harvey try for one day not exploiting the downfalls. Break through your barriers to seeing the truth about what you do. Harvey YOU CAN HELP CHANGE THE WORLD FOR THE BETTER. I DARE YOU TO DO IT.
In continuing to link Adam's name to the words "domestic abuse", it is becoming more and more obvious that your ego is trapped in your own false heroic story, that includes this domestic abuse equality lesson for the world. Heroism does not include exploiting human vulnerability for personal benefit.
You want to teach people Harvey? Show them how it is done right!! Show videos of people in the gay community who treat each other with deep respect. Stop exploiting human vulnerability. God forbid someone exploit the times you have fallen short of your ideals and make you out to be "bad." God forbid someone show footage of you every time you fall in the dirt.
Unfortunately, unfairly damaging Adam's reputation will only come back to hurt the gay community. Harvey is not only about to lose any vestige of respect Adam's fans may have had for anything he says, he is will loose them as his possible allies if he actually does want some attention or help doing good for the gay community.
It would be extremely wise of Harvey to apologize for unfairly linking Adam's name to the words "domestic abuse." He can champion the cause without using and exploiting someone in this manner. I dare him to try to step into a space of integrity. He might like it.

Please view this as constructive criticism from someone who has lurked on PF then on here. Certain days The Diary of Anne Frank is a musical comedy compared to the angst that goes on here about nothing. I know criticizing is not permitted but it is impossible for me to keep my mouth shut tonight. Some of you love to wallow in misery and worry. Tonight with real life kicking my ass it was just too much to deal with perceived problems when so many authentic ones abound. If Adam worried half as much as some of you he would need a crisis negotiator to talk him down from the HOLLYWOOD sign. I know, DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT ME IN THE ASS. 8-) And I agree with you 100% on this subject. I think it is well-meaning fans totally making a mountain out of a molehill. Is it tomorrow yet?  Hi Truffaut.. HI FOTM . .. This is what I love about A'Topia - the varying degrees of passion .... all those who are on the other end of the anxiety spectrum... and those that are tempered ..... Thanks for voicing your thoughts.... they were needed to be voiced.... SPECTRUM of EMOTIONS |

Also did my own little head count since truffaut joined. When mika re-registers after his computer gets fixed and assuming all members with undisclosed genders are female; then of Atops' 797 members only 31 are dudes.

I'm not upset about the tmz vid, of course the 45 min one didn't bother me either. Pifflestorm in the scheme of things. Do like the idea of thinking/sending postive thoughts to Adam. Being in the maelstrom is tough but he's being treated just like everyone else so he's on equal footing.
