After we were showered with Adam goodies in April, let’s see what flowers in May. With recent tweets about new music and GLAAD honoring Adam with the Davidson/Valentini Award, May seems as if it will be a very merry month indeed. And we can’t forget the Life Ball in Vienna later in the month! Let’s hope for more great pics like we had from the CMAs (China not country music), Live Proud PSA and Miami Beach Pride.
Above are just a few of your favorite photos. You don’t need to be satisfied with just one main photo. Just click on the thumbnail to open your full-sized fave(s) and Drool away!

    Q3’s (Atop) reasoning why youtube song play looping doesn’t
    help/work increasing viewing numbers on viedos:

    The view counter is secret. But think about it for one minute and you will realize it is IMPOSSIBLE that a playlist of the same video will work. If it would work, it would be too easy to manipulate the YT counter.
    YouTube works really had to separate real from bogus views. How hard is this to spot?
    The playlist is on YouTube.
    The plays all come from the same IP address (digital location of log-on) and are sequential.
    The plays come from the same account if you are logged in to YouTube.
    There are several YT tester who say that YT has not been counting these kinds of plays for over two years.

    What’s that thing he’s holding up at the end – looks like someone went gamehunting and shot a pheasant for him.

  3. ultimathule says:

    Thanks for the info, jlurk – but you can still play in sequence if you refresh, I take it?

    Just posted a photo http://instagram.com/p/ZgURifONN0/

  5. luval says:

    Is that Tommy in the bottom left in that instagram?

  6. jlurksacto says:

    play in sequence if you refresh

    I would think so. It is reopening the page every refresh.

  7. luval says:

    So Adam changed his twitter avi to match his instagram. I’ll miss that pap picture.

  8. ultimathule says:

    Love that pap picture – in his own world there – well, more or less.

    For those of you who watched Husbands, Cheeks (aka Brad Bell), Adam’s pre-Idol ex, just won Indie Soap Awards for both best writer and best actor. Here is his funny and touching acceptance speech when he got the second award

    Isn’t it unusual how many of Adam’s friends, usually long time friends, are achieving so much greatness? How many celebs have so many with so much success?How many celebs are able to maintain so many friendship. Adam truly is a unique and special person.

    LOL. Cheeks owes some of his success, and certainly some # of views, to Glamberts. Wonder if he knows that?

  11. milwlovesadam says:

    Loved the pap picture. It reminded me of when he was looking out that window in Miami. So lost in his own head…

  12. luval says:

    ITA…and not just Cheeks. But I am happy to do so….if it’s good!

    Just got my internet back…felt lost and alone! Missed our boy and y’all! It was only a matter of hours but who knew how long it would be, and I didn’t even get a chance to say good-bye!

    Ron, I definitely agree that the comments have softened. I always read youtube comments, and they used to make my eyes bleed and my heart hurt. That is rare, now, and ususlly someone comes right back and contradicts in a nice and respectful way.

    I don’t remember who posted that Adam seemed so much calmer and comfortable these days, but I have noticed that, too. More reflective, more centered. Maybe that is the smoother face that we are seeing; not botox, just natural relaxation.
    It makes me happy to see Adam so at ease.
    I think that was part of what made the duet with Angie so special; he was just “there”, doing what he does so well, supporting and thinking about someone else.
    It also means (I think) that he feels safe about his career; the interview responses aren’t so intense, he isn’t so “on” when he is being interviewed.
    At the risk of being an amateur psychologist, I think that Adam is hitting all the needs in Maslow’s hierarchy and checking them off his list, albeit likely not consciously. Even the most pessimistic Adam could not see anything but a long and successful career ahead of him; he has the financial security that he has always said was so important to him; he has dear friends and family; little Riff is obviously a special godson with a special place in his heart; his album Trespassing is obviously something of which he is justifiably proud; he has an active social life and seems to find a great deal of enjoyment in it (Adam has said that he really enjoys clubbing), and has a solid and healthy relationship with Sauli behind him to reassure him that this is possible for him and will happen again with someone who might turn out to be his forever partner, if he decides that he wants that.

    I am so looking forward to what this newly calmly reflective and self-actualized Adam may produce!
    Chic

  15. adamized says:

    Oh Kradamour —- Amen to all of that sister!!!

  16. luval says:

    LOL…my brother had a blind date last night. Turns out she loves Adam and her best friend is a Glambert. Neither know anything about blogs. There must be millions like them out there!

    Billboard Music awards on now. Adam is probably watching.

    Titanium now has over 290,000 views. Angie/JJ has over 520,000.

  17. adamized says:

    Hi luval I am boycotting the Billboard Awards. Two reasons: 1. Chris Brown is performing 2. Adam is not.

    I look at the view count for Psy’s performance and am shocked. Don’t get it. Never will.

  18. luval says:

    Orianthi is guitarist for Chris Brown.ugh.

  19. luval says:

    I respect that, adamized. I hate it that Adam is not on too. Especially with a number one album last year!.

  20. Kradamour says:

    I love Psy! In a trainwreck sort of way… Grin
    (Ducking)
    He is such a bizarre anachronism…those girls with him on Idol made me think of the girls in the old Robert Palmer vids (‘Simply Irresistable’).

  21. Kradamour says:

    Oh, no! Orianthi…?!

  22. luval says:

    I think Chris Brown was doing a Michael Jackson song “Dangerous”, so that’s why Orianthi was there. She was Jackson’s lead guitar before he passed away.

  23. Kradamour says:

    So she isn’t his tour guitarist? Just this show?

  24. luval says:

    Kradamour…I don’t mind Psy…married, twin daughters, a little on the husky side, Freddie Mercury was his inspiration. yet is this world-wide sensation. (at least for 15 minutes.) Here’s his wiki bio

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psy

    eta: Pretty sure she’s not his guitarist. They were just doing the Michael Jackson song tonight.

  25. luval says:

    What a lipsync fest this Billboards awards show is. Pain

  26. glambotgram says:

    I Love that Chinese Idol Judging video. Soo cute, I watched all his facial expressions and I think he was truly mesmerized by the artistry of her performance. I thought she was good, and it reminded me of Native American music. Must be world wide original music.

    Pop that Lock was great also and that interviewer is just as much in love, with Adam, as we are. I want to see him in that jacket too, especially now that I know what he wears doesn’t wear, under it!!! mils coming to the corner, scoot over.

  27. Kiwi says:

    Some treasures here today…I’m sure I haven’t seen that “Starlight” before. Plus the Chinese idol judging clip and the talK show. Thanks everyone.Nice to see the photo of Adam and Taylor Hicks. The only idol alumni albums I bought were(apart from Adam)David Cook and Taylor Hicks. Must admit I loved Matt Giraud though. I’m glad I dropped in!

  31. glambotgram says:

    LOL So True.

    BUTTHERTZ RENT A CAR ‏@chunkeymonkey81 8h

    UMMM ADAM NEEDS THAT CI INTRO FOR WHENEVER HE WALKS INTO ANYWHERE. WHOLE FOOD, TRADER JOES, THE DENTIST….

  32. luval says:

    I’m liking Miley now. She rolled her eyes when she announced an award for Bieber.

  33. ultimathule says:

    Go, Miley!

    (Haven’t watched the damn program – just pisses me off too much.)

  34. ultimathule says:

    Ah – “Let It Flow” – Toni Braxton – just came on my music player – calms my anger – a little anyways.

  35. jlurksacto says:

    LOL

    BarTGila ‏@BarTGila 11m
    Milli Vanilli should ask for their Grammys back after tonights Billboard lip syncing fest.

  36. JOJOSIE says:

    Kiwi, I also bought Taylor and David Cooks albums, but I really didn’t care for David’s and gave it to a grandchild. I also bought Crystal’s. No one recently has interested me that much. I never seem to get tired of Adam. Speaking of Adam, I bet that gal that mention him as her neighbor bought Kelly’s place. I heard earlier that she bought a house. He may miss her as they really seemed to connect.

  37. Kradamour says:

    Why would ANYONE move away from Adam and stop being his neighbor??? What is that even ABOUT??? Just to buy a house? A house where your neighbor isn’t Adam?
    (Shakes head)
    B*tch be crazy.
    Thinking

  38. Kiwi says:

    Jojosie, I liked David’s first album, but when I listened to his second, I decided not to bother because it was exactly the same as the first. that’s something we never have to worry about with Adam….one never knows what’s coming next!Adam boredom is not one of my concerns. Matt Giraud’s “Georgia” on idol is one of my all time favourite performances by anyone.

    Loving Kid Rock

    7. BEST BRAWL | Say what you will about Chris Brown (and you can, will and, if you ask me, should), but his moves during the Jacko-esque “Fine China” are impressive. Plus, since the number includes a ninja battle, I figure there’s a 50/50 chance he won’t end the evening throwing beer bottles at presenter Kid Rock for cracking, “Let’s give it up for people lip-synching under prerecorded music.”

    Have we seen this shirt? Very colorful.

    Late, late but yes we have, and I love it!
    In Toronto last May.

    Ron, wasn’t Adam wearing the colorful shirt when he met you at HMV? Smile

    Thread for Chinese Idol Mad World at MJs.


    She seems to put up Adam threads immediately after he “takes over” a headline thread. Then his own thread doesn’t get so many hits because everything, or almost everything, was already said on the thread before.

  43. ultimathule says:
  44. ultimathule says:

    Sorta noticed that, too, rs.

  45. nkd says:

    Sorry to pollute the site with Biebs and Swifty, but this is kind of funny!

  46. rs says:

    Kradamour and ron I loved your posts about Adam being in a calmer more secure place in himself right now. It is such a destructive industry. Look at what it is doing to Beiber. Of course there is no comparison between the upbringing, intelligence, and inner strength that these two have, but I remember Adam talking about the fact that he wouldn’t have been able to handle the pressure of Idol if he had gone on when he was younger.

    Think we’ve seen this pic, but it’s worthwhile looking at again.

    That was funny, nkd – had the same reaction – lol

    ulti, pics from Ste Agathe are ALWAYS worth another look!
    Grin
    Y’know, at the time we were making some surprised noises about how low-key his makeup was there. By comparison with a lot of his recent performances/outings, though, he was heavily made up.
    He said a few times that the makeup and costumes were in some degree something to hide behind. I have been thinking that he is doing a lot less hiding. Makes me very happy.
    Big Smile
