Adam hosts the 2012 VH1 Divas event from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. This show is a benefit event for the VH1 Save the Music Foundation. The show airs live tonight at 6 PM PST (9 PM EST) in the United States on VH1 (see world clocks below for Red Carpet and show times in your area). Adam will be performing at least a couple of songs in addition to his hosting duties, we know that one of them will be a Madonna song. Rumor has it (from interpretation of rehearsal photos) that it will be “Vogue”. A “red shoes” reference in a tweet from @Wildaboutmusic seem to suggest that Adam will also perform David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance”.
Update: Adam did indeed perform “Let’s Dance” to open the show. The Madonna song turned out to be “Ray of Light”. Adam (along with Kelly Rowland and Kerri Hilson) also performed “Hot Stuff” in a tribute to Donna Summer.
According to an insider tweet (see below) “Adam will sing more than any host in VH1 Divas history”, so there may a surprise or two in store for us as well!

@vh1savethemusic (via Adamtopia):
@WickedSinsDyer Actually, more than half of the people who purchased tickets for the show was because Adam is hosting
@adamlambert will sing more than any host in #VH1Divas history tomorrow night.
Reportedly there will be a very strict no-camera or recording cell phone policy in place for this show, so we’ll have to see if peeps in attendance manage to get any unofficial videos or photos. Rumor has it that dinner may be served, but I don’t have any info to post here at this point.

music too loud
WHAT is he wearing???
LOL…what the hell is that? Trespassing earrings, though.
Another new outfit! Lawdy!
I love the outfit. Awesome!!
It was OK – sort of a letdown though. He looked a little awkward? I blame the outfit. Should we call that the Friar Tuck outfit?
He seemed a little pitchy or quivering to me, mostly at the beginning. Aely, what did it sound like live?
Maybe he got that outfit where he got his gloves (china?)
Loved that. Ray of Light is a great song, and from what I can tell with this sound, Adam sounded great.
So.
He loooves those awesome gloves from Japan.
And he found a tunic to match them. Very futuristic and end of the world Mayan.
Vocally: Best of the night.
Spotted both Johnny and Terrance.
I agree Luval – but he got better when he sang louder
Looks like the King of Hearts or something. And the shoes. LOL! Adam will always surprise.
I was puzzled with that song, any remarks, sound from band off?
He looked cute as hell, but IMHO that was not a good song choice. But then, I never really liked that song.
WTF was that outfit? AdAm,Adam…(shaking her head)
There were dancers?
It was like a “feeling fat day” dress.
We have seen the shoes before
I hope he gets to do something closer to acoustic…
The gloves definitely inspired the outfit. So far I see to be the only one who liked it. But I also have two kids clamoring for my attention in the background, maybe you guys could pay closer attention.
I think I expected it to sound like the rehearsal video from Iowa. I do like the song, though.
The beginning his mic was to low but btu the middle BSC in here. The end was awesome. The outfit might have looked better in person. He was not awkward to me.
First thing I thought: Jack of Spades.
Sort of like that Musketeers tunic from the Hennessy press conference.
I think someday Adam will say that this outfit was a WTF outfit. Didn’t love it but admire Adam for being so brave!
I thought it was off in the beginning, his mic and the sound, not him, But I still love the outfit.
Jordin should be good doing Whitney
They said only 2 more acts
His voice sounds odd tonight. Maybe my 30-year-old TV?
So first it’s PETA that will be after him.
Next, Gambler’s Anonymous.
King of Spades?
Musketeer.
Kanye wore a skirt last week.
Jordin looks fab and singing great!
Jordin is gorgeous!
Jordin is killing it and I want her dress
The sound is strange tonight. I’m seeing that everywhere I look.
This gal was at the Cindy Lauper thing.
Someone on twitter said he had more “WTF outfits” than “JFC he’s hot” outfits tonight. Kind of true but I don’t care. Interesting is always better.
I’ve counted 8 outfits so far.
This is fantastic!!!
Whitney tribute was good.
So Pit Bull closing the show. Almost forgot about him. Hope we see Adam one more time….Dressed all in black with tight leather pants.
Jordin looked and sounded fantastic. You go girl!!!
Love Jordin – my fav female Idol by far.
aely, I’m so happy you are there and having a good time. Thanks for the reports.
When the comments here and on Adamtopia are mixed to negative regarding an Adam performance – yikes. Not as bad as a certain night just over 3 years ago, but still not great.
I’m hoping for a hot outfit to close the show.
Pitbull.
Did anyone have a deja vu when that female artist (I forget who) had the men on leashes? I was worried that Adam was going to come out to sing with her, but it would have been sorta funny I think if he had.
Me too.
soccermom: I did. Had one at the opening of the show as well.
30-year-old TV and it’s still ticking??? How do you keep it going?
