Dying from Adam Lambert Portland AI concert videos

My mind has gone to mush. It has been mush for the last 2 hours. *DYING* YouTube and Twitter are both blessings and curses. I can’t even type properly anymore

I don’t know if I’ll post anything else in this space. Maybe later when I’ve recovered.

No wait.

I’ll just post my Portland YouTube playlist here. OMG I’m a genius.

And presenting to you my favorite performance of the fuking night:

ETA: No guess what, we need the 21st century answer to David “GlamFking” Bowie here:

Adam Lambert Billboard interview (Led Zeppelin totally cleared Whole Lotta Love because of him)

Some really interesting tidbits in this interview with Adam. This is one of the more insightful replies I’ve heard from him, probably cos the questions weren’t dumb and the interviewer, Fred Bronson actually did his homework). The highlight for me was the Led Zeppelin tidbit. Led Zeppelin (or I’m guessing Jimmy Page in this case) cleared Whole Lotta Love just because it was Adam and knew he could do the song justice (Yes Gokey I still haven’t forgiven you for butchering Dream On)

Craig Ferguson takes a piss out of Peter Travers on Huge Douchebag Day

Teeehee, I love Craig Ferguson, especially during “huge douchebag day”. And when you have Peter Travers, Rolling Stone with references to the Rolling Stone cover and karaoke singing, I simply have to post this :P :

Rolling Stone media coverage, a.k.a !)*@$)(!@*% I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW... Rolling Stone Cover is OMG !)*%)(!*@%

I had a psychedelic experience where I looked up at the clouds and went, ‘Oh!’… I realized that we all have our own power, and that whatever I wanted to do, I had to make it happen.” — Adam Lambert

Holy Fucking Adam Lambert Rolling Stone CoverPhotograph by Matthew Rolston

Magazine photos and outtakes

Someone tell me why these photos never made it to the actual magazine???? They’re gorgeous! Seriously, this is really old school glam rock stuff. I think the photographer, Matthew Rolston, must have had so much fun with it. (Read what he has to say about the photo shoot) What’s next? Vanity Fair fantasy styled photoshoots?

Rolling updates

ETA 7: Here’s ABC News’ shrine. Check out the videoc clip on the making of the RS photoshoot. Guess who’s behind the snake concept? (Great answer btw!). JMHO, as much as I like the RS interview, I think his personality really shines in face-to-face video/audio ones. I also think he’s a PR dream, handling the toughest questions with aplomb, unlike Gokey who seems to stumble everywhere he goes (“Money, money, money!”).

A Change Is Gonna Come, glitter style

Oh my, I’m at risk of turning this blog into an Adam Lambert fan site aren’t I?

But but… this is too awesome not to blog about…!!!!

Compare it with the American Idol version. How different does this get? (I prefer the singing in AI though, cos it’s just so much more emotional; it really shows how much he’s grown as a singer (I believe he was about 22 or 23 when he did the version above).

Image Gallery: Adam Lambert rocks it out with Queen

I thought this was the most awesome part of the American Idol 8 finale, Adam singing with rock royalty and killing “We are the Champions” with full vibrato even on the high ranges! Brian Harold May and Roger Taylor are da bombs. The competition should have ended at this point because what came after was so unfortunately anticlimatic and disappointing.

Play the song here:

Best Adam Lambert interview to date

I'm happy about the AI results now. :)

I’ve finally gotten over the loss in American Idol and after watching some media interviews with the top 2, I’m glad to say that this was the best possible outcome we could have gotten: Adam doesn’t need to win American Idol to be a superstar while I’m happy that Kris is getting the media coverage he needs to boost his career. Both guys come across as really sweet people in their interviews and I love the fact how they’re a model of how true friendship transcends differences. (See video below for ultimate cuteness). I twittered recently that music preferences don’t have to be mutually exclusive, and both are deserving winners in my book.
