I had just written a long post about this and since I'm such a slow typist when I posted it there was MAJOR FLAING going on so I deleted. ;D But I think Brad said it better than I did, what a great quote! I remember him saying in his IGB video that he was teased from age 12 because "Yeah, I've always been this gay." These men who had no choce in be ing "out" from a young age and come out the other side with humor and grace along with a happiness with who they are deserve a medal in my book. The world is a better place with them in it. OK.... Adam' singing on Idol!!!!!

Okay, for those still on the thread. I have a very serious dilemma and I need some advice. I will be traveling to visit my parents (in their mid 80's) on Thursday. Will be there by the time Idol airs, but...... dare I request/demand that we stop our reunion so that I can watch Adam on Idol???? They know that I have become a tad enamored by Adam -- that I chat online with y'all occasionally, that I went to his concert, that I think he is a great singer. They have NO IDEA how hopelessly in love and addicted I am. I THINK I can hold it together and not act like I did when I saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show. I THINK. But, as much as my parents love good music, are they ready for Adam????? Acoustic Aftermath sounds like something they would appreciate. But, Adam in the Blonds or Skingraft? OOooo, risky! And if he glams it up at all, they will be flummoxed. If I could be confident we would get a performance akin to WWFM on Ellen recently, I would go for it. They might actually understand a bit of my "appreciation." I can record it and watch when I return several days later, but, but, but, but..... AAAARGH. I can be a big girl and delay my gratification. Or, I can be fearless and Adam inspired and say, "Hey, I really want to watch this performance. So, deal with it." After all, I should be too old to worry about what the parents think, right? What would you do??? My mom is in her eighties. She knows that I went to see an Adam Lambert concert in San Diego. She watched him on the view and we talked about it. I have found that after kids, grandkids, and great grandkids that my mom has become more open minded and accepting about a lot of things. Just tell them that that you want to watch American Idol. They will probalby just enjoy watching it with you.

I can't see Adam wearing a Blondes outfit for this, can you? I think it will be a wonderful performance for your parents to watch.....I'd watch it with my 90 year old mom - we've seen Acoustic Aftermath performed on tour a zillion times - it's always beautiful!

Doesn't really count as a question when you already know this crowd!! I have a really important after work bonding (ack) thing with the bosses and I'm already planning on faking a seizure. Cayman Tragically I beat you to it - those cards are maxed already. (The IRS is debating the Glamnation deductible argument - I keep pointing out those charges are (mental) health costs.) I am going to bed as I am apparently so tired I lost an entire person. I could have sworn Jamie posted and I was going to respond, but clearly I am now hallucinating. good night all~ ETA: Relieved to see I didn't lose Jamie after all...

What would you do??? You are undoubtedly a better person than I am but I will be at my sister's for dinner and my nephew's 7th birthday party that night. Rest assured that the cake and presents will be moved into the family room so I have the one and only TV in the living room. The show will be DVRd for me at home, but it is not the same as watching it the same time the rest of the Idol world does and imagining what they are thinking as Adam stuns them with that beautiful, meaningful song. Assert yourself, girl. They are your family so it's not like they can disown you.
