HEY GUYS!! This looks like a rehearsal for Leno Sleepwalker!!!!! Thanks!! So amazing how he goes from awesome singing to talking/pinpointing sound problems, and then seamlessly back to fabulous singing again. How do I love him? Let me count the ways...

NoAngel & Aloha, I can't even put into words what I felt upon reading that bit of sad news. Especially as I now realize he was but a stone's throw from one of my hang out areas and I did not know it. :(

I'm bored. There's only so much to be said for the possibility (probability?) of Adam working with Ryan Tedder because we don't know if it's true. And even if true we don't know what's emerging from their sessions. I just know I'm happy. But I'm still a little bored so I thought I'd bring this over from another site. Not verbatim - just paraphrasing. An Adam fan lamented the fact that Adam has not done much lately and envied the Kris fans because he did some radio interview and has a performance scheduled in April. I mean WUT? Adam has been busier than the proverbial bee giving us so much - two recent TV appearances, Grammy nom., red carpets, Acoustic Live release, Aftermath for Trevor Project coming, Tour DVD coming. All this, not to mention the 112 full-set concerts around the world that ended just a short time ago. Crazy. Your post reminded me of the movie, "The Truman Show". Yeah, my mind goes strange places when I am bored. In the 1998 movie, Jim Carey plays a man who thinks he has a normal life, but it is really just an ongoing reality show. At the time it was released, we had not been flooded by hundreds of reality TV programs, and the concept seemed a little far out. But, now, it seems all too real. There must be days when Adam feels he is Truman. Every trip to the grocery store, every dinner out, every word tweeted is circulated around the world within minutes. We hunt him down based on a picture of a burrito or the fact that a picture showed him standing in front of a travel poster. We freely offer him unsolicited opinions about his love life, his hair style, his clothes, his taste in music, his friends, his career, his investment strategies, his skin, his freckles..... ad infinitum and minutia. In the movie, Truman could literally not leave town because the TV audience wanted, demanded to see his life 24/7. Is Adam's life so different from that? I don't mean to be critical of anyone, I want to know where Adam is and what he is doing every day as well. But, there are times when my perspective shifts and I think "Damn! Why don't they (and I) just leave the guy alone? How can anyone cope with that on a daily basis, long term?" I know some people say that is the life of a celebrity in these times, and it comes with the territory. He knew that when he decided he wanted to be a star. Heck, even Adam has said that repeatedly. But there is a small voice in my head that asks, "When did we go over the line? When did we decide that we had the right to hunt down celebrities and dog them unmercifully? When did we determine that any individual pursuing their choice of career, or pursuing their dream should happily give up so much of their privacy?" I am as addicted to Adam and Adam news as some of the most BSC fans. I admit it. But, in my saner moments I recognize I have no RIGHT to know the details of Adam's daily life and personal time. No right to seek out what he does not willingly and generously choose to share with us. I don't have a solution to my addiction, much less anyone else's. Still, I think it is worth looking at what we do to the celebrities we love. Just saying. Cassie, believe it or not, I have made that exact same Truman Show analogy to a friend in relation to the way we sometimes stan AFL. I don't have a solution to my addiction either nor would I want to tell anyone else how to stan but sometimes I do get a tiny bit perturbed and pull back a little. (Until a GB sighting or something else of monumental importance sets me off again. lol)

I'm neutral on LG and found parts of her new video to be kinda nice and other bits, not so much. I loved the way it started out with the overhead shot of her in the pink triangle in some kind of transparent cube. Nice. Then she started speaking and lost me. I literally rolled my eyes at one point in the opening spiel - at the bit about the "birth is not finite; it is infinite" (or some such redundant phrase). I can't put this on her, though. I tend to get very squirmy or wanna cringe if I find a speech to be corny or too canned. Even when I know sometimes people aren't trying to be smarmy, I find it hard to listen to anything where I can literally see the thought process behind how a speech is being presented, for whatever effect is being elicited. This is why I FF thru some of Adam's GNT banter. (Don't kill me, please.) It's totally on me, though. Gotta try hard to overcome that - I'm too cynical. I also liked most of the dancing although it didn't feel cohesive with the message(?) at times. The video will probably grow on me after repeated viewings but my initial reaction was, "This seems great.... oh wait...what?"

Is anyone else having twitter issues? I haven't been on in weeks and wanted to go see the new non-AFL avis on my feed but I can't access twitter. I've heard Web Twitter is having issues. I went there earlier and my page was blank for several minutes. I use Echofon mostly and it's fine. Ok. Thanks. I'll wait it out. ETA: Off to some chores. BBL
