Del Mar County Fair – Photo by Alikat1323

As July ends the “Trespassing” touring era now seems to be over with the last show at Paso Robles. But work continues as Adam is to be part of the Glee cast and also is guesting on Avicii’s new single “Lay Me Down”. It may be quiet on the touring front but there are always surprises. When it comes to Adam, expect the unexpected! Photo from Alikat1323 Smugmug.
Enjoy the chat!

    That picture is gorgeous, facial hair or not.

  2. sparkle says:

    Funny – a few days ago, my son was trimming up his facial hair and at one point it was uneven so he shaved off the beard and mustache. He’s already letting it grow again – thought he looked too young without it (babyface). Maybe Adam feels the same or maybe he needs it for his role on Glee, at least as an option.

  3. aely says:

    nkd I agree. I really like the facial hair. Scruffy is my favorite. But, when it all said and done I really don’t care, he is just an amazingly striking, handsome man. As someone on twitter said AYE PAPI! I have already printed out a copy. MUST.GO. FIND. A. FRAME…

    I love the Billboard charts. But never understood fans who need tastes affirmed by sales figures. You only love an artist if they’re no. 1?

    Writes for Billboard…Like his thought.

    Yes sparkle, I am the one obsessing about his ear lobes. He gets my hopes up wearing what appear to be normal pierced earrings, and then the next picture clearly has gauge sized earrings with the stretched hole clearly visible

    Have just been listening to some of that interview with Brian (before going off to make dinner..), didn’t realise he knew Adam pre Idol, he was in the band at the Zodiac show..

    They seem to have the wrong idea about Jakarta though….and only 2 hotels, I don’t think so….just googled it, there’s at least 250!!!

    Hi everyone –

    When Nile said that the new song was still stuck in his head tonight after dinner, I think he was referring to this tweet from early yesterday morning. Smile

    Nile Rodgers ‏@nilerodgers 21h
    @AdamLambert I’ll see you tonight for dinner. I’ve been up all night writing, maybe we can do this one together in a couple hours too Smile

    I loved the twitter interaction between Nile and Adam tonight. It makes me happy to hear that those two are talking music! Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at dinner to hear what they talked about!

    By the way, the gal who posted the instagram photo of Adam “smoking” last night confirmed in a comment on her own post that it was just vapor and he was not smoking a cigarette.

    Personally, I totally agree with those of you here who said that you trust Adam, a grown, mature, very grounded, and smart man, to make his own decisions for himself regarding lifestyle, without his fans needing to second-guess him every step of the way. We know he’s not a choir boy, and that’s part of what makes him so interesting, but he knows better than to take up smoking now.

    (As an aside, the research shows that, generally speaking, if someone hasn’t started smoking by the age of 19, they are quite unlikely to start. Very few people start smoking and get addicted after the age of 19.)

    Latest rumor cycle:

    Jennifer Lopez return supposedly confirmed & it’s looking more likely for Adam Lambert! | http://www.unrealitytv.co.uk/american-idol/american-idol-2014-jennifer-lopez-return-supposedly-confirmed-by-boyfriend-casper-smart-its-looking-more-likely-for-adam-lambert/ … via @unrealitytv

  18. jlurksacto says:

    And Glamberts get nasty:

    Adam tweeted an instagram of the article in which Nile says, when he needs a vocal, “Adam is now my man”.
    Nice of Nile. But I understand the reason Adam may have tweeted it is to show support for Nile. It seems some crazy people identifying themselves as Adam fans have been attacking Nile with tweets like:
    “And so Adam Lambert is now my man”. That’s a rude thing to say, seeing that Adam belongs HIMSELF.
    I checked other tweets by this “fan”, who is a really into Tommy, one of which is:
    Well, Adam HAS already the best guitarist. He doesn’t need another.
    I hope Nile can brush this kind of crap aside. But it is troublesome that these kind of crazy “Glamberts” are attacking Avicii, and then attacking Nile.
    The Adommy people are pretty bad. I know Adam split with Sauli. But sometimes I think it would be better if he split with Tommy.

  19. cwm says:

    Krad – I just wanted to (belatedly) thank you for your very thoughtful post a few pages back, where you offered me moral support and shared your own journey dealing with your mother’s health problems. It sounds like you’ve had quite a rocky road as well, and I wish you both strength, health, and well-being.

    Lurker and angelowal — I haven’t had a chance to say “Welcome” yet! Welcome! I’m so glad you have come out to play. Keep posting!

  20. cwm says:

    jlurksacto – after your post, I went and looked through all of Nile’s mentions for the last 8 hours – extending all the way back to before he tweeted out the picture of Adam at dinner with him. I’m happy to report that I saw hundreds and hundreds of tweets from Glamberts – ALL of them excited, grateful, loving – giving Nile an incredible amount of love and positivity for his relationship with Adam. I did not see one single negative tweet directed at Nile. (Haha there was one whining to Adam about when he would finally be a friend to Tommy and introduce him to Nile. LOL).

    So if there was a negative tweet to Nile, it was maybe when the article first appeared yesterday, because there was no negativity tonight whatsoever. And even if someone did tweet something negative to Nile, it would only be one tweet out of HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS of extremely positive tweets, so I’m sure Nile would dismiss it.

    So although I do agree that the Adommy crays can definitely be a pain in the ass, they are but a small little squeaky cray voice in the otherwise thunderous avalanche of approval, positivity, and love by the rest of the fandom. Smile

  21. cwm says:

    There’s one more thing I have to get off my chest and then I promise to stop post-hoing and go to bed. Warning – rant ahead!

    I just want to say that it really bothered me to see the quite negative and judgmental things that were being said here (and on twitter) about some of the guys that Adam has been seen with. I’m as much of a looky-loo as the next person about Adam’s personal life, and I like to take a peak at who he might be hanging out with or interested in. And a little good-natured speculation about the guys is fun and harmless, if done with humor and self-awareness of how much we really don’t know.

    But I found myself really bothered about some of the quite negative judgments being tossed around here about some of the guys (e.g. “famewhore,” “shady”), based on a pap photo/video and little to no actual information about what the guys are actually like as people or what Adam thinks of them or what their relationship actually is. It just felt so… judgmental.

    I don’t know what the guy in the most recent photos at Bootsy Bellows has done to earn animosity. He simply held Adam’s wrist as they went up the stairs and scowled at a pap’s camera. And he (or someone else in the car) put their arm around Adam’s shoulder. Some people saw that as pushy – I actually had a very different immediate reaction. I saw it as sweetly protective – that is, reaching out to “protect” Adam from that fan who was trying to climb in the car. I was much more “worried” about that fan’s intrusion than I was the guy’s hand around Adam’s neck.

    And Eli – he did nothing to earn animosity either. On twitter, he expressed genuine gratitude for the Glamberts who have recently shown interest in him and his music. He said something cute about Glamberts joining his Leiberators. He then expressed genuine concern when someone in Russia tweeted him that a Russian media outlet had said, as a result of his tweet, that he was trying to “take” Adam’s fans. It was cute how concerned he was. He has called Adam a “great guy” and a “friend.” He hasn’t been retweeting anything Adam related. If he has been retweeted by others, that’s not his fault.

    Adam is obviously playing the field at the moment, meeting and hanging out with lots of different people. I guess I hope that we can keep an open mind and sense of humor about it all, have some fun with it but not judge books just by their covers, and give the guys (and Adam) the benefit of the doubt and not assume that they’re all shady famewhores until proven otherwise. LOL Smile

    I know some of you may disagree with me about posting negative impressions, and that’s ok. It was just bugging me and I needed to get it off my chest. End of rant. Love you guys. Thanks for listening. And now I need to go to bed! Heart

    cwm Yes Big Smile Clap

  23. Soccermom says:

    Totally agree with you cwm about the speculative judgments of Adam’s friends from just a few pictures and possibly with alcohol involved. Such judgments will make it harder than it may already be for Adam to find another exclusive relationship like he had with Sauli. Such comments in the fandom could virtually guarantee that only the hangers on types want to spend any continuous time with Adam. For example, Eli might be the perfect mature and deep relationship kind of guy that Adam needs in his life right now, but due to the fandom tweets to Eli, he might back away. I believe also that Adam was just going out with a group of friends and if one or two of them are friends with benefits, so what? Adam is indeed not a choir boy, so for all we know, Adam is taking advantage of his celebrity to date a variety of people,and perhaps he is sort of the “user” in these connections, and not the other way around. I think we are also being motherly and overly romantic, wanting to be sure our boy is not being a slut and hoping he instead finds “the one” and lives happily ever after. He may be just wanting to hang with groups of friends because he hates to be alone. But if it is more intimate than that, I think the boy is too smart to be taken advantage of. Until we see Adam with one guy alone a lot, or Leila there too, I think these are just friends or casual relationships.

  24. adamized says:

    Morning! So happy that we may be getting to have some “dinner” together this evening (late afternoon for west coasters). Am so excited to hear LMD live. The pics from last night/early morning are so lovely. His mouth is so mushable!

    cwm and Soccermom loved your posts.

    Have a good day everyone and welcome lurker.

  25. TLKC says:

    WOW! Go away for a day! I saw the Bootsy Bellows photos and had a similar reaction to a lot of people here but after reading through everything and surfing the net a bit, my thoughts are in line with cwm’s.

    The obsessive examination of photos (guity!) and the twitter scorn were hard to read. We Glamberts are a pretty judgmental bunch and not shy about saying so. No one is good enough for our BB.

    Even on this relatively sane site, the comments about Sauli, Eli and Victor over the last week suggest that we are not necessarily accurate parsers of Adam’s character, his needs or his feelings. (Me, too! I was projecting my preferences onto Adam when I saw Eli as a great partner for him.)

    We know nothing about Victor but it’s a good guess that he is a nice person. Adam knows how to pick-em! I sincerely hope that he has a better time of it than Sauli, who really couldn’t use his twitter account and had to deal with all kinds of disgusting posts on his blogs. Seeing what Eli has had to deal with over the last few days, I wish this new guy good luck and hope he has the stuff to deal with it.

  26. TLKC says:

    So true soccermom. Adam has said that, post-Idol, he discovered that a lot of guys were reluctant to get involved with a celebrity. Not everyone is willing to handle the scrutiny. That can exclude some meaningful people from his life.

  27. TLKC says:

    Welcome to Lurker.

  28. TLKC says:

    LOLS jlurksacto. There are some fans who abhor anything that takes Adam away from Tommy for even a minute. They are ranged against Nile, Glee, Queen, Avicii and any boyfriend that Adam will ever have. Not playing with a full deck.

  29. TLKC says:

    Have a great day everyone!

    @Di_dianaa: Omg YES “She will also interact frequently with Adam Lambert’s incoming character, and the pair will have several musical numbers together.”
    I keep seeing this on Twitter over and over about Demi Lavato being part of Glee w/ Adam. Rumor? Anyone heard anything like this?

    ETA: OK. It is true!

    Am I allowed to say on this blog I don’t care for Demi Lovato? AL or Eywflyer… Please delete this if so.

    Did I miss a storm? What storm?

  36. ultimathule says:

    Have read the posts this morning and it seems being funny about Adam’s current friends is hitting a sour note. Best, I guess, then, to not comment on them here in the future.

  37. ultimathule says:

    Not thrilled about Lovato – mediocre singer at best.

    Having second thoughts about Lovato, etc. – not the best singer, but a “cheery” personality. Perhaps the writers are going towards emphasizing the New York story in the future and away from the sadness of Lea and the high school group – in the process highlighting Lovato and not Lea. Would seem a good move for the show.

  38. luval says:

    Ultimathule, I have read the comment guidelines and haven’t seen anything that says we cannot comment on friends. I am not going to be silenced unless I break the rules. Everything said is all in fun. Don’t understand what the problem is. I usually skip over comments I am not interested in reading about and just move on.

  42. aely says:

    I don’t care one way or the other about Demi being on Glee except for the bigger picture. She is young and has over 16 million followers on Twitter and is hugely popular. All that and pairing her with Adam, in NYC no less, is a win. Her fans are sweet and going nuts about how excited they are about her and Adam singing together, it is fun to read!

    I think Demi is a good girl. Sure she struggled but was smart enough to get herself help before she hit bottom. She even lived in a group home during last season of X Factor because she was afraid she mentally couldn’t handle the pressure. Give me more young stars like her any day. I only have 2 of her songs but have seen her live and she has a very good voice. Adam caliber? No, but who does? HA

    The fifth season of Glee is shaping up to be a musical dream come true as Adam Lambert and now Demi Lovato are set to appear AND perform together!

    @ddlovato *IF the rumors are true! Lol

    Uh oh, did we jump the gun??? Or did he just get into a wee bit of trouble for tweeting…LOL

  47. TLKC says:

    I am at work so will be brief. ulti PLEASE don’t stop injecting your healthy doses of reality into a topic that is a tad overwrought for many of us. Do not hit the delete button on that string of tweets you posted last night! That twitter stream is Adam’s reality. We might as well know it.

    Plus your “Cackle!” made me laugh out loud.

  48. riskylady says:

    Wow, so much going on. But, what about Lea and her expressed desire to sing with Adam?
    I sort of agree with Ulti about Demi’s singing, not really outstanding. On VH1 Divas, she did not sound that great. But, agree with aely, she seems nice and smart, and her fans are sweet. Hope she doesn’t take spotlight away from Adam in any way. How come they leak 6 episodes for her, appearing in the second Beatles episode, and yet we know NOTHING for sure about Adam. Maybe he will be in the second Beatles episode too. Grrrr. WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO BE A DAMN SECRET???!!!

  49. TLKC says:

    Oooh Demi and Adam and 16,000,000 more fans! Life never dull. Back to work.
