2013 will apparently begin with a rather quiet month for Adam, as he has only one performance currently scheduled. This will be a Hennessy Artistry event in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam on January 4. After that, Adam’s next scheduled event is the kickoff of his international “non-tour” in Seoul, South Korea on February 17. There is no official word as yet on whether some North American dates will eventually be added to the non-tour in the spring, but recent comments from Adam have not been very optimistic.

Above we see Adam performing at his final concert of 2012, at the Mulia Resort in Bali, Indonesia. Happy New Year and enjoy the chat!

    Yes, I found it (fb page) a couple of pages earlier, posted by Ellessay. In that interview he was also asked about his birthday, he thought he might give a big party Smile

    – At home, do you dress up fancy like this?

    – No! Much simpler. Paparazzi able to take pictures, I do not feel there is nothing to be embarrassed. Most of the time at home, I do not wear anything, I like the feeling of being naked. If someone broke into the moment, “delicate”, the first thing I do is pick up the phone and call the police. Surely they will see my bare ass and it makes me a bit awkward a little bit.

    Then again…is the general public even aware of Adam’s tweets? No one at work mentioned a word. Guess people just don’t watch the gossip shows so it might be a bit confusing or complicated for them (the Adam Levine/Adam Lambert situation).

  3. luval says:

    Guess this has been going around twitter (the positions)

    nkd…”we are this fandom”…pervy! ROTFL

    eta: actually, everyone but me! Smile

  6. aely says:

    After I posted Ashely’s tweet if I remember correctly didn’t just Brian and Tommy travel to a few shows? Who knows.

    I think you might be right, luval, my friend who is a fan but doesn’t use twitter much had no idea about mizgate.

  7. luval says:

    Adam’s latest follow on twitter is Bradley Cooper. Wonder if they know each other?

  8. LadyNorth says:

    Haha nkd I just visited my twitter feed. It’s nothing but that Grin Pervberting. It’s amazing how fast fandom can put together new pics etc. I saw many pieces of art which would be perfect on decorating corner walls…

    Nite peeps!

  9. milwlovesadam says:

    nkd, I think you nailed it.

  10. aely says:

    Not the real Bradley Cooper. Thought the same thing.

  11. milwlovesadam says:

    Ladynorth, may I please compliment you on your not broken English? Kudos. And for a new piece Adamvernacular for even me.

    {{ Pervberting }}

  12. nkd says:

    nkd, I think you nailed it.

    That we’re pervy? That wasn’t much of a stretch!
    Or something else?

  13. milwlovesadam says:

    LOL. Maybe they’re political positions.

    Or positions on twitter, not trending/trending

    Betcha he’s trending now. Yes

  14. milwlovesadam says:

    nkd, the Kendrick Lamar thing.

  15. milwlovesadam says:
  16. luval says:

    That is a great view of WWFM, mils. Shows his beautiful moves, enthusiastic audience, camera boom (keep thinking he’s gonna get hit), no dancers, colorful.

  19. ultimathule says:

    From the reviews, luval, the singing here may be better than the movie.

  20. milwlovesadam says:

    luval, that has to be one of the most romantic things I’ve ever seen. So incredibly sweet. Thanks for sharing that. I wonder how they did that?

  21. luval says:

    I’ve always wondered too. I imagine it would only work at a very very large wedding. The planner asks some guests if they can sing, then try to figure out from those guests who else could fill the bill…networking in private, secretly planning the whole thing, rehearsals, etc. What a lovely surprise to the non-singers and bride & groom, of course.

  22. Calgary says:

    Thanks luval that was a lovely YT.
    ulti LOL!

  23. AL says:

    AL, your last weeks crossword made an appearance on Atop

    Thanks jlurksacto, nice to know that!
    It’s a small Glam world after all.
    Glad to see that other people are seeing them and that the crossword was tweeted to Adam. Since the link does not show this website address I guess I should make sure to add it to the next crossword. That way people will know where it came from and we can possibly get a few more posters here too.

  24. luval says:

    Been finding things on twitter to pass the time. Soooo many Adams!

    http://i674.photobucket.com/albums/vv109/mediawop/Adam_Lambert__90_.jpg

  25. milwlovesadam says:

    I read down in the comments on that wedding video, turns out the bride and groom are both composers and performers, so their friends are also in musical theater. But, to plan this, rehearse this, and pull it off shows how much they love their friends. The comments on this video are so sweet.

    Sheesh. Shoulda gone into showbiz..

  26. cwm says:

    AL I think it’s awesome that your crosswords are going out into the greater world of Adam’s fandom! But in addition to including the link, I think you should also include your moniker on them so that they are credited to you. Smile

    I Go By Many Names ‏@igobymanynames

    @brianlondon so the debate raged through SNL w 1 of your singers to playing Viola in Twelfth Night and settled on The Saturdays’ US promo Wink

    Brian London ‏@brianlondon

    Some of u guys guessed it…ill tell u tomorrow!

  29. glambotgram says:

    I found this

    Brian is almost certainly accompanying a UK girl band called The Saturdays who have just gone to the USA for promo

  30. luval says:

    Oh yeah….supposedly The Saturdays are the next big thing. Confused

    I have been addicted to Adam’s unreleased song “Hold On” all day today. Finally was able to get it on my ipod.

  31. riskylady says:

    LOL, so, if Adam wanders around his house in the nude and also sleeps in the nude, maybe this explains in a perverted way his penchant for dressing in “eleventy-billion layers” as someone on Twitter said a few months ago! It’s like, giving all his clothes a chance to be worn, several at a time, or, MUST.COVER.UP.IF.NOT.INSIDE.DWELLING.

  32. ultimathule says:

    I’m with you, luval, think “Hold On” is spectacular – thrilling. Wonder how many more great tracks are still in the can. Hoping for another ninja to find a few.

    I have a version with the lyrics on the screen and great pics of Adam.

  33. milwlovesadam says:

    I just watched and listened to this at turned up to 11. I just can’t get over it. Now this is what live singing is all about. And this is my last Les Miz post. I will try to promise.

    Okay Guys: Long List here:

    2012 – What a Year!!!

    We have had an embarrassment of riches this last year. I wish the rest of the US knew what Adam has been up to. Even the VH1 Divas and Pretty Little Liars appeal only to a small segment. There are plenty of people who think he is a failure because we aren’t hearing his music on the radio or television.

    I rarely go to Walmart, but happened to be there today (got a gift card for Christmas). I walked through the music aisles, and there was no sign of Adam’s albums, not even an open hole where his albums should have been. It was like he didn’t exist. No wonder he’s ready to move on with new music.

    I think the first album was for the record label after Idol. The second album was for him, to finally be able to express himself as an artist and sharing his reality. I hope the third album is for the fans–incorporating more of what we like the most:

    1. The angsty songs, like WWFM, CLYG, SW.
    2. The rock edge, like WWL.
    3. Fun stuff, like Cuckoo.
    4. Songs that show off that VOICE–thinking of Runnin’ and any of the ballad-style songs.

    I like FYE more than TSP. I missed out on clubbing (got married the week after high school graduation, first of four babies born a year later), so I don’t really relate to those songs. They are high energy and fun, but I’m not really drawn to them. I absolutely loved BTIKM–I could relate to that one. Like WWFM that phrase has come up many times over my forty-year marriage.

    I’m hoping this year’s experiences yields some really great music for the next album. My wish is that he makes it universal–I want my grandchildren to be able to sing along with his music. They need to know what great music really is so they quit accepting mediocre.

  35. nkd says:

    I hope the third album is for the fans–incorporating more of what we like the most:

    But what is that exactly?
    We like so many different things from Adam. Just our small group here has different favorites and different songs that they don’t like as much.
    I love FYE, but I love Trespassing more. I think it has a more sophisticated sound.
    I might be disappointed in an Adam album that didn’t reach across genres for a mix of sounds.
    Anyway, I’m excited for what he has next for us. New music, Queenbert concerts, TV appearances…

  36. nkd says:

    I came across this last night. It’s Megan Hilty in Wicked LA. Look at the ensemble and listen carefully to see if you recognize our Adam.

  37. ultimathule says:

    Was he actually there, nkd? Didn’t see anyone who looked like him – missed it?

  38. nkd says:

    Listen at 2:22 ulti.
    As far as making anyone out to be him for sure, that’s difficult since the focus is on Megan.

    At 3:17 it looks like him holding her hands, and it looks like his hands, but the picture is not clear.

    ETA Here’s a screencap at 3:17. I think it’s him.

  39. ultimathule says:

    I would say – guessing, of course – that it’s not him. Voice just lacks the same quality and the smile doesn’t really look like his. Maybe some of the others here will take a look/listen and let us know.

  40. rs says:

    Just when I think that such great strides are being made in the battle for acceptance, when it comes down to money, Hollywood is still the same.

    One another note, Johnny Weir was on Guy and Rachels Celebrity Cooking, and was gay as heck, showed his husband, and son, dressed in a corset, and kissed one of the male stars, it was really funny but not in a bad way, just part of the show, and I didnt think it showed being gay in a bad light, they all laughed with him, not at him. You cant figure out what works or not, and this is a cooking show, and popular. Go figure. Johnny needs to step up his cooking tho, he didnt want any fat in his chicken burger because he said he is a skater, and needs to watch his weight, and the people judging said it was too dry, lol.
    Also on another cooking show, the Sandwich king, he make barbecue kale chips, he put the kale pieces in the oven, and dried them, then sprinkled a mixture of dry barbecue powder on them, just for your information. Ya Im bored watching cooking shows, ROTFL

  42. sparkle says:

    Hi nkd and ulti – Happy New Year to you and everyone here at ALL. I have been MIA over the holidays and haven’t caught up but I watched the clip with Megan. I stopped it at 3:18 and the features seem too sharp – especially the chin – for it to be Adam. Just my opinion – and I didn’t hear his voice either…

    Happy to be back in the sandbox, even if it’s in the corner!!

  43. nkd says:

    Well, I still think it’s him. We do know that he performed ensemble while Megan was Glinda in LA. You can see him in the 5 Fiyeros as the first one performs and Megan is Glinda.
    Someone posted this a few days ago.

    Hi sparkle, and Happy New Year to you!

    Hi Ellessay, I think this will help you feel better. I was in Target today and while there I picked up two copies of Trespassing to give as gifts. Not only did Adam have a designated spot in the Pop Music alphabetical section for both the Standard and Deluxe Trespassing album, but ALSO a designated spot for Trespassing Deluxe in the “Top Hits in Pop” section, which was a shelf above the alphabetical section. Big Smile

    So I think it all depends on the store.

  45. ultimathule says:

    Happy to say I’ve seen him in the Target stores, too.

    Well, not in the flesh, unfortunately.

  46. ultimathule says:

    I don’t understand why a movie is even being made about Liberace – the whole idea sounds tacky – even the title, “Behind the Candelabra” – almost sounds like a comedy. And “too gay” for Hollywood? Is this a joke? More likely, it’s a dog that both gays and straights will walk away from. Can’t imagine Liberace – who really was a terrific pianist/entertainer – would like his private life spread all over the screen.

  47. ultimathule says:

    Hi, sparkle – good to see your name – always thought it was such a terrific choice.

  48. ultimathule says:

    Since the members of the band are apparently going in different directions during this dry period, wonder if Adam is cooking something up or just reorganizing after the move. Longish time between drinks – gotta keep his name out there.

  49. cwm says:

    In case you’re interested, I just posted a bunch of photos on the Hennessy Vietnam thread.

    This lovely collage of photos of gymnast Sauli made its way around twitter this morning in response to Adam’s tweet about “new positions til the break o dawn.”

    https://twitter.com/Joannalizzy/status/287958836810248194/photo/1

    mils– this might be a good poster for the wall in the corner, perhaps in just a little space designated for Sauli and Adam/Sauli.
