I'm confused?? Why is this a Google doc? Is it on the RCA website? Are we sure this is real? |

Here is the EW article of Trespassing www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20594232,00.html MUSIC REVIEW Trespassing (2012) Adam Lambert Adam Lambert might be the only American Idol alum who considers purple eyeliner a daytime look. So it's hard to understand why it took him so long to make his big gay dance-club album. ( :  WTF? ) Even after he came out in 2009, the eighth-season runner-up didn't stop flirting with the straight crowd, indulging in classic-rock guitars and gender-neutral pronouns on his debut, For Your Entertainment. But on Trespassing, he's left the closet far behind — defending gay marriage (''Outlaws of Love'') and celebrating what happens when two consenting adults love each other enough to share their safe words (''Chokehold''). He's also officially coming out as a superfan of funk, '80s-night house, and Studio 54 grooves, tapping Chic's Nile Rodgers to produce, along with Pharrell Williams and Dr. Luke. Thanks to these pop vets, Trespassing's first half is a study in fabulosity: ''Kickin' In'' is stripper-heel disco at its finest, and the rousing ''Shady'' plants its freak flag in the uncharted territory between Nine Inch Nails and Michael Jackson. Too bad the ballad-heavy second half is so laughably over-the-top By the end, our hero is wailing about fallen Towers of Babel and ripping away his flesh and bone to a ''red river of screams.'' Cheer up, Glammy. It's nothing a little makeup remover can't fix. B- Best Tracks: Scissor Sisters-inspired Kickin' In : Industrial Pounder Shady : She is loving the dance part, she's mocking the dark part. WUT? OK then. ??? What a weird article. Not really anything to get upset over... but it's weird to think that someone would actually go and publish something like this. : Tacky! |

Want to support this heroic move by Obama as best I can. I signed this one as well and am posting it here for anyone else who would like to support in this way. The Human Rights Campaign, the largest civil rights organization working to achieve equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans, is another EXTREMELY worthy organization sending thanks to Obama. secure3.convio.net/hrc/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=1443 |

wow. i have no problem with someone not loving the the album (well, not much). but that review is WEIRD. and i don't just mean because it's B-.
"Purple eyeliner," "big gay dance-club," "sharing safe words," "classic rock guitars" = straight, and "Cheer up, Glammy. It's nothing a little make-up remover can't fix."
wow.
Bertiebotts - we posted at the same time and both said: WEIRD! But I agree, nothing to worry about and, as you said, TACKY!

Homophobia at it's BEST , not to mention that she has NO CLUE about music.
The way she describes Kickin in and Shady are to laugh for.

Did we know about this: Not that Adam Lambert is ever idle, but now is an especially busy time for the "American Idol" alum as he prepares for the May 15 release of his second album, "Trespassing," an upcoming performance on "Idol" on May 17, and a run of European concert dates in July with Queen (!). To celebrate all of this activity, Lambert will stop by Billboard.com's studios for a Live Q&A on Monday, May 14 at 3 p.m. ET, just one day before "Trespassing" is officially released! Lambert Performs 'Naked Love' on 'Kimmel' | Queen + Adam Lambert Playing Shows This Summer In equally exciting news, Adam will be answering fan questions live on camera during the Q&A, so tweet what you want to know about his busy life to @billboard using hashtag #BBAdam. And be sure to come back to this page on May 14 to watch the Live Q&A. www.billboard.com/events/adam-lambert-live-q-a-may-14-at-3pm-et-1007006952.story#/events/adam-lambert-live-q-a-may-14-at-3pm-et-1007006952.story |
