On Air/Ryan Seacrest @onairwithryan Glamberts rejoice as @adamlambert trespasses on music chart history ryanseacrest.com/2012/05/23/glamberts-rejoice-as-adam-lambert-trespasses-on-chart-history/ Way to go Adam! It looks like a whole new version of an Idol showdown as Adam Lambert‘s Trespassing grabs the number one spot on the Billboard charts, knocking fellow American Idol alum Carrie Underwood’s Blown Away into number 2. Lambert thanked his fans this morning posting a grateful tweet, “WOW! #Trespassing made its debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 this week! Thank you to the Glamily for helping me make HISTORY!”. another quote from this article: Lambert’s Trespassing is the second album from the 2008 Idol runner up, following his 2009 debut, For Your Entertainment. Released last week, Trespassing has already sold 77,000 copies and counting. Not only is this Adam’s first number one album, this is also the first time an American Idol contestant gone pro has risen above another on the charts, as stated by Idolator.com. Love that Ryan is Berting!!!!! |

QueeenAl
The pendant I remember a fan saying that she gifted to him in one of the last radio stations M & G we have pictures .
As for the jacket the light doesn't help me at all. I said yesterday that only judging by the style of the jacket it looks to me like the one he wore in the last scene of BTIKM video. But I 'm not sure.

Q3 I'm a bit confused,no I'm very confused about the sale numbers on trespassing.. Digital sales 29,000. BB 77,000. were they added together? Or are they separate. Did Adam actually sell 0ver 100,000 units of the album? The 29,000 digital units are in the 77,000 total units. So he sold 29,000 digital albums and 48,000 CDs. Digital sales are higher than expected and that is a very good thing. Brick and mortar music departments will probably be mostly gone in the US before we get Adam #3 (assuming that is 2 years). This breaks my heart. I love having a physical CD with the cover/sleeve inside. |

[grins; looks inside lolly bucket] Ya want one with or without your usual embedded scorpion?  I think I would like my usual Drambuie with a Black Sambuca lolly please....that should be a quite glamulicious combination!  Oooh....now THAT's both liquored and in total keeping with the album theme. [bows reverently] KUDOS!!!  [pulls out lollies with a flourish; hands them over to mszue] |

We should always be able to order our pretty hard copies.  |

Just a quick visit to say how DELIRIOUSLY HAPPY I am that Adam is #1 in BOTH US and Canada!!!!!!!!!!!
No one deserves it more. That man has worked his ass off.
As for those FOOs who need to scurry around to find little crumbs of bitter sad comfort in adding gratuitous asterisks...
FUCK 'EM.
Or, more in keeping with the Light Side...
bless their hearts...

I love having a physical CD with the cover/sleeve inside. I share your concern, I have always wanted to own my books, my movies and my CDs. And I guess in future I am not even expected to have my binary, but just use it from some cloud. It just does not feel the same :-/ |

Not going to by one for Trespassing, don't even have a CD player to play it on. The flip side is I actually buy more music now than I ever did. Now books are a whole different thing for me... LOL |
