Susie--About Adam's new look. I think it's TOTALLY a great strategy. Not only does it fit in with his theme of wanting to gain broader acceptance and be taken srsly as a musician--not just the OTT gay kid from Idol--but it's a common thing in pop music to reinvent your look continually.
I gotta say, while I always like the eyeliner, I am SO GLAD whatever makeup he is wearing nowadays is more subtle. That heavy caked on shit just highlighted any skin imperfections--gotta say now his skin is looking next to flawless!!--and aged him a good 5 to 10 yrs imo. I dunno if it was the way it was applied or just because a guy wearing full on face makeup can be tricky, but I love the *softer* look. Also loving the softer hair.
He just looks good and more accessible which will def help him gain more fans, casual and whatnot. Plus, sad as it is for me to say lol, his look now won't intimidate the straight dudes. LOL

Also, can I just say how funny it is, that all of these interviewers are talking about trying out juicing because of Adam.

Let me preface this with saying that I haven't listened to any of the radio stuff yet except for Maxwell. But regarding Ryan Seacrest...I've always thought he's damn good at his job. All the billion jobs he does. I hold no animus towards him. Adam DOES have granny fans. He has lots of others, but it's still considered huh? to like a singer if they're male and gay. And if you're a straight girl, then people ask the weirdest question, meaning why would you like a singer if they're gay, meaning there's suddenly nothing attractive about him. Even though, objectively, he may be an "object" of beauty. Gay men are desexualized in order to be palatable, and then add older women - forget it. Older women are supposed to be beyond that, just be moms and grandmoms, and not consider a pop star or actor attractive, or go to concerts, or listen to Top 40. So you could say Ryan's comments are 1) anti-gay and 2) anti-women and 3) anti-age and get mad, or just shrug it off and not take it personally.
Sorry to bring it up again, I can never post during the day and by the time I get on, I'm way behind.

I love this one! And I just love Adam so much too....... This was REALLY nice! The interviewer barely had a chance to ask questions, Adam had so much to say  It seemed like Adam was very relaxed and natural, even more so than in the 99.7 interview. Still a few more to listen to... |

Mitla96 Mitla96 @nilerodgers People seem to be REALLY liking Shady and makes me more angry that you all MUTED THAT VIDEO. 36 minutes ago in reply to ↑ nilerodgers Nile Rodgersmitla96 Record production is about trust and integrity. Now after the record comes out if Adam says it's okay I'll play the raw session  |

Adam is just..I don't know. I don't follow, or haven't follow many if any artists before Adam. But he just really seems to love his fans so much. It is really more than just loving his fans. Many artists love their fans but few seem to have the genuine APPRECIATION that Adam has for his fans. Good lord he even called us "ladies of a certain age" his surrogate mothers! He truly appreciates the passion and love that we feel for him and the protectiveness. He has a sincere appreciation for the powerful weapon that we can be when focused in the right direction and he has shaped and molded us into an incredible asset to his career. He has also returned our loyalty and devotion with his own loyalty to us and he has forced the media to recognize our strength. He has truly made us partners in his success. He really has changed the way media perceives a passionate fan base. |
