Well, I kinda wish they weren't doing all these voting things..................

I'm really covered up with RL stuff getting ready for Christmas, will miss the party tomorrow night, and will hope the stream is still up, and good YT. Congrats to nica and visavista that are getting to go to the show, anyone else going?

I am planning on making my dh watch the VH1 Diva show that Adam is hosting, and really hoping he gets some good time in singing and not just hosting duties. Guess he will be back in LA rehearsing next week. One thing I think is really great about the show, is that Adam will get to meet and hang out with and sing will all these young hot divas. He will make some new friends, have a great time and blow everyone away. I really hope he gets to do a song with Kelly Clarkson, can't wait!

Thanks for the the nice KUDOS from everyone on my son's performance.

This year, he was in a dance about sexuality, it was very racy, one of the professors said it was "soft porn" NOT. If I see a YT of it, I will post it. It had several pairs of dancers, some boy/girl, and one girl/girl and one boy/boy, all seducing a "virgin", my son was paired with another male, and they turned it on, got "campy", just like Johnny in Adam's FEVER routine.

I read the whole thread from that day (Dec. 3) and found all the comments really interesting. My fave comment was from mika:

I hear you. I have black friends but I just don't like it when they act all ghetto. I mean Beyonce is a class act but when she puts her hair in those braids and starts talking ghetto, girl, I just change the channel. (And Snoop Dog --- c'mon, definitely creepy.) I just don't like overtly black people - I don't know why but that's okay - it's just a question of taste. That's what I tell the kids too - if you think other kids act creepy and different, you don't have to like them.

Also, I hart both homophones and alpha mails.

(I don't even care if I got trolled - that's the most fun I've had all day! Yes, that is how dull my day was.)

Great, mika!

Also loved the interview mika posted (p74), I had not seen it before.

I think a lot of the opinions are valid, even if not popular. People feel what they feel, and are attracted to different styles in all kinds of things, not just dancing. Clothing, music genres, etc.

I personally loved the "campiness" of Adam's Fever performance with Johnny and Terrance. IMO, Adam directed and approved the choreo, and it was perfect for that song. I think Johnny could dance like Terrance if so directed, it is a style of dancing. My son can do both styles, really really camp, and really really macho.

There is so much going on here that I want to comment on:

sugaree: thanks for the music channel, enjoying! Also the Divas performance, great ladies on that show. Will be interesting to see if these young singers can hold a candle to them.
So happy for your new Misty. Amazing that Shadow's presense is there, I know it is a great comfort to you.

junie: I think that animals do communicate on a telephathic level.
And, how's the new job going?
The farmer in the hay vid was hillarious. Last thing that gave me a good laugh this week was something posted here at Atop, can't remember what it was, but I was rolling on the floor. We have some funny and creative people here.

nikki ~ that one will take a few reads from me, shucky darns!

Welcome Back! So glad you really didn't leave.
You are now are 1300th member!!!!!

I think we had about 300 members at Adamtopia this time last year, before Adam's EMA performance.

Love all the new members, and the international flavor of this community!

Gotta brag on my boy ~
Last weekend we went to his dance concert at college. They used his picture in their advertizement for the concert:



here is the original shot, taken during a dance he had a solo in the last year's concert:



It was from this dance:



This year, he was in a very controversial dance about sexuality, where he partnered with another male dancer, and he was amazing. It reminded me of the recent discussion about Adam's dancers and being "too gay".
If they post a YT of that dance, I will bring it here. My son had no dance lessons or training before switching his major from Business Admin to Dance his junior year. This is his 3rd year in the dance program at UNT.
Very proud mom!
