First time coming here! Didn't know about this amazing site!!! I searched "Adam Lambert" on twitter and saw this as a top tweet:

AdamLambertTV: Adam Lambert's WWFM is #1 in Germany for a second week straight!

And i'm here! Love this site already...already bookmarked it. :D I just LOVE Adam.

OOOHH That Haircut aahhhh....Lately He looks younger and more SEXY than ever,the clothes..aaahh the image of a rock star fits him better, maybe is for the new song, but whatever he wears always looks so HOOOOOT.

Anonymous said...

Yay, thanks for posting so fast! I love this site. I was trying to watch on live stream but it cut off...Adam's vocals are amazing, the live audience must have been rocked. I still can't get used to the dancers, tho, esp. his friend Brooke, which makes me feel guilty. I do enjoy watching Sasha, she seems to fit in just right. Anyway, just when I think Adam can't get any better, he does it some new and incredible way...!

I LUV THAT HAIRCUT!!!!! <333

Stephanie said...

yay!! A better version!!

Gonna watch again lol. It's Saturday tomorrow anyway....

Anonymous said...

j'adore the new haircut. il a chaud! haha i'm not gonna go any deeper because my french is severely limited :P

but the beginning of the first verse is always sharp when he performs, but the chorus is always fantastic and the bridge just knocks it out of the park.

Tommy seems to be getting hotter . . . hmmm . . .

also I'm not crazy about the dancers, because it just feels a little awkward having them run on, run off, run back on, run off, jump on and have odd movements . . . adam is a helluva lot better than them, all he needs is him and his band.

Not too crazy 'bout the dancers either. They somehow seems clumsy, but maybe it looks better in person. They look OK when their movement is sharper a la Michael Jackson dancers, but when they meander all over the stage, it's not pleasant, just distracting. JMO.

Adam looked fantastic tonight. Love everything about that man. I watched on our best hi-def screen, and his complexion looked smooth and nice. Great makeup and great hair. Love that shorter look. Really enjoy all the changes he makes. He continues to surprise.

The tights look similiar to the ones the Aussie dj gave him and what he wore in Japan. He looks so happy now and Jay always seems to enjoy him. He rocked it as usual. I'm getting used to the dancers and they and Adam's choreography seems more sharp and better than in the beginning. He's having fun now and hope we'll be seeing more tv appearances. funbunn40

Anonymous said...

The pants the Aussie dj gave him were more like jaguar spots while these were more zebra. But hawt, both are hawt hawt.

Notice the very low part on the left side of his head for this fab look. Oh and hey, you guys that hated the razor cuts in his hair. It's hair, they grew out!!! Told ya!

Adam you're going to KILL some of your cougar fans. HaHa.

Anonymous said...

LOL did anyone else notice Kiefer Sutherland (the guy from 24) went up there on the stage and was hoping Adam would look his way so he could shake hands with him? I bet he's a fan!

You only see it for a second, but the look on CariAnn's face when she gets to Adam is priceless.

Good morning everyone! (although it's most likely night time for most people lol)...

Adam looked HOT - his legs looked extra long in his sequined zebra-striped jeans! YOW!!! **pant! pant!**

To new 24/7 fan - yes, I used to go to a couple other sites but now I don't even bother. I don't have much time to get my Adam fix, and this site feeds it straight into my bloodstream...quickly and efficiently. I can always count on them to have the newest updates, instantly. Thank you, 24/7! (...ok, the rest of that sounded kinda sick...but my Adam addiction IS like a disease...a disease I'm happy to have!)

Anon 11:37 **pant! pant**! = one pant**
(1 for each leg) or two for a pair of pants**?

lol

You didn't sound kinda sick, you sounded just like the rest of us. You go girl. btw that disease you have is VERY contagious. I caught it when Adam did Bo Rhap!

LOL same thing with me. I used to post on AO but trolls took over and it became a mess of a forum and it became so hard to find news on Adam. It was filled with useless chatting threads also so i come here only now. Easier to keep track with everything reading a blog.

To: Glambrit Isle of Wight UK, and our other oversees fans/friends - I am 11:37 (maybe I'll call myself "Adam illness" or "Adam fix" from now on - ha!). I always start with the most recent post and work backwards, so it wasn't until after I watched this clip of Adam on Leno that I went back through some of the other postings and saw you waiting, waiting, waiting and begging and for this clip to get added to 24/7! I've gotta hand it to you - I thought I was obsessed, but that is some real dedication on your part! I bow down to you. ;) I hope you feel satisfied now and can get some rest now...filled with sweet dreams of Adam!

I was starting to think I was the only one who sacrificed sleep for Adam! Sleep is over rated these days, and interferes with my Adam fix. Thank you for being such a fervent and devoted fan. I always enjoy your postings, and find it so cool to be conversing with someone on the other side of the planet about our mutual adoration of Adam.

I envy you all for having the flexibility to surf Adam fansites any time you want. I can only get my adam fix after my children and husband went to bed. It's way past 12 am right now and I'm barely catching up to the past 24 hours....

Thank god for 24/7

I'm forever coming back here & going through the archives just to re-live some of the wonderful ADAM info here. This is the best & the friendliest ADAM fan site of all ... IMO ... THANX for all your hard work on our behalf & ADAM's!!

Anonymous said...

Hi Mother of 3 - well, I don't have 3 kids (hats off to you!) but I do have one son, a husband and a big dog. In order to have ultimate enjoyment of Adam, I also wait until all the boys go to bed so I can have some quality-me time (with Adam, and all of you! ha, ha!)...therefore, been getting a lot less sleep over the last year! Totally worth it, though. If you have kids, you're used to getting less sleep, anyway.

Hey, I live in Seattle, so maybe I should change my name from Adam Fix to Sleepless in Seattle? Nah, although it's more accurate, it's too corny. :)

Has anyone looked at Adam's Twitter lately? He's going off about the definition of the word "Campy". I think HE needs some sleep. :)

- Adam Fix

Adam was fantastic as usual. I love this site and would like to thank the people who manage it. I come here several times a day for my Adam fix and don't bother looking anywhere else. It's all here ! Thanks !

glitzylady said...

Adam Fix, I'm also in Seattle area, with just a husband, but still up late for uninterrupted Adam time, I'm afraid we all have the same addiction, with no cure in sight! Just finished the West Coast viewing of Leno, of course watched Adam earlier on this site, had to stay up to see the HD 50-inch plasma version as well! DVR'd it, but you know....! What can I say, I've become an incurable Adam-aholic.....Think I can finally go to bed now...But just wait until all of those concert videos start popping up on You Tube, I'll NEVER get any sleep! Sweet Dreams!

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! Adam was amazing and the other two guests were definitely fans...YAY!

adam looks amazing yet again, love the hair, love the pants. it looks like there are a lot of adam fans not getting much sleep. i also wait for my 3 children to go to bed before i can get my adam fix. he is very addictive. i love 24/7. it's the best for us brit fans to get our fix

very happy brit fan.:) xx

My God, Adam's legs are magnificent! And so is everything about him!

I don't like the hair much, but it's better than the point on top. Dislike his dancers alot (not personally- I'm sure they're nice people. I don't care for a poppy choreographed Adam. BUT!!! His vocals were tremendous! He could rock a house- even with that poppy song, if he'd do it without the dancers and put all his mind into singing that song and relating to the audience. (I've seen him do it before.)
Love Jay. He loves Adam.

Anonymous said...

the most hardcore adam site with updates etc is hoopla and ai and this site.

Love the dancers, love him, love the band and love his pants.

Anonymous said...

Love Adam.
Adam had a lot of fans in the audience, but he didn't related with them again. He's always that way when he's got his dancers on the stage.

Adam is only as good as the people he has on stage with him. He integrates well. He won't outshine anyone. That's nice, but it kills his act. He's best when he's with the best, because he'll shine with them. That's why he was so great with Queen, and that's why he rocks it alone- no one holds him back.

If he's going to have dancers, he needs great ones like MJ's dancers and then he needs to forget about them and do his thing.

He has so much potential. I know a few of you love his act with the dancers, but I'm sure you're in the minority. You even seem to be on Adam's own fan site threads. It's disappointing.

Anonymous said...

His dancers don't even express his songs. It's like they're dancing to different words or something. It's annoying. This is probably why he never made it before Idol.

Anonymous said...

Thanks 24/7--had to go out so, I missed it but I knew it would be here!

Adam's show is a work in progress. I am not fond of the dancers all the time but do think it's cute when the start out in unison. Then I want them to go away and let him rock it...alone.

He is such a good dancer himself--so, I want to see HIM dance. The dancers should actually leave once he moves out and takes/owns that stage! The dancers start being just a distraction. Adam may not realize we don't want anything to distract us from seeing him in full rock it mode.

Anonymous said...

The pants look great on Adam. I'm not liking his short short short hair everywhere but on top. It changes the shape of his face and is not flattering.

"Adam's show is a work in progress."

Is it progress, though? Adam's show was great with him rocking it out before the dancers.

MiMi said...

I have been coming to this site since it started. It is a great site, best on the web. Very optimistic and positive. I hope people won't come here and start picking Adam apart like they did on Rickey.org's site. I never go there anymore.
Adam was beautiful last as always and his vocals were fantastic. What dancers?

Anonymous said...

I used to go to "The Official Adam Lambert Site", I would Google Adam's name for news, I would go to the Amazon bestsellers site and OMRG (Oh My Rock God)....then I found this site! It is the absolute best!!!! Thanks. The latest and the best Adam news is always right here!

Anonymous said...

The whole act was amazing. The dancers add a lot to the energy of the song. It's a haappy tune. It tells about having a party and that's why the dancers run in and out. Sometimes they are part of the iyric and sometimes ther r not.
If u watch ballet it's like that. The dancers tell a story and they go on and off the stage. Some of u don't get it but Adam knows what he is doing. He is been doling theater for a long time. He is exposing us to this part of the art.
If u have an open mind, u can actually enjoy and learn new things

hey guys, please visit muchmusic video awards and vote for adam. we could vote once a day only.

Adam looked fabulous...glitz and glam all the way. Liked the shorter haircut...gives him a fresh and younger look. He truly seemed happy performing this song. Can't wait for the video next week. Too bad there wasn't time for Leno to interview him; he did the last time Adam was on. He is one talented, charming, personable, and sexy man. Good luck on the tour to him and the band.

If you had an open mind, you would accept that most people who love Adam don't care for the dancers or don't acknowledge them ("What dancers?" The ones clumping all around him and distracting him.). They feel Adam is more organic and real as a rocker or at least a pop/rocker.

Anonymous said...

Adam was perfect and the dancers were incredible good this time, with lot of space to move around giving Adam his own space to make his act. Tommy and Monte were excellent as usual. They have become an excellent unique team. Love them all. What I love so much about Adam is that he lets his team to shine on scene with him. He believes in synergistic work. Theater background is definitely in his veins.

I would hate to see a bunch of ballerinas running around Adam going on and off the stage out of lyric.

I love that about Adam, too That's why the people around him should be great too, because Adam lets them have the show.
Sorry, this is keeping Adam's show down to another level.

First, welcome back Emmaline!

For the first part of this video, I kept squealing: the pants! OMG those pants!

Liked the dancers better on Ellen when they somehow faded into the black background and weren't so distracting. (But that was the first time I liked them at all, so that's progress for me.)

I also LOVED the look on CariAnn's face at the very end when she's approaching Adam. Makes me so happy.

And about Adam twittering about Camp, it sounded to me like he was just still high from the video shoot, and probably Leno, having fun, being happy. It made me smile. I LOVE when he's happy.

Also ditto about this site feeding us our Adam fix directy into the bloodstream! Priceless description!

I too, used to go to other sites. But this is 'home' now.

Thank you 24/7

:)

There's a reason Adam didn't make it before Idol. It's his team.

Adam looks great-- love the short hair and the nude lip!The dancers have grown on me and think that they don't detract from Adam. Glad I got tickets ten minutes after they went on sale-- brutally cleared work calendar--learned yesterday that my venue has sold out.

I loved his hair I don't mind the dancers don't spend much time looking at them anyway eyes and ears just for Adam!!! This is a great site the best ever.

What do you mean he didn't make it before Idol?

oh yaay!!! that was amazing especially the vocals:) i like he hair down, and i like his makeup to night. who would have thought tommy had more haha. but i liked adam like that. yeah the dancers i still don't know about i feel like its just too small of a stage and we need more adam to just jump around (like what he did on idol) i feel like he is restricted. when he was on ellen my friend (who isn't obsessed but likes him mainly cuz i do) was watching and said he looked kind of uncomfortable. i said i would have to take a second look.but idk about the dancers maybe its their outfits ha

Adam fell from #3 to #7 this week on VH-1. I guess we got distracted by Ellen and Leno (I know I did). Gotta vote him back up so he can be on that 20/20 VH-1 list!

This is a great site to catch up quickly on Adam Lambert. But, let's not denigrate others who are promoting Adam, like Planet Fierce who have great visuals also and keep promoting Adam all the time. The more sites talk about Adam, the better!

6:47 - thanks! haha i didn't think anyone would notice i was missing (i was sick and had a bunch of school work, finals, theater stuff....) but it's good to be back immersed in the adam community!

8:01 - i had the same problem. the time slot for it just cut off (he did run a few minutes past the shows end time), and thus the dvr did too. it recorded the first part, but when it was about halfway through the song it cut off (right before the bridge!! argh that made me mad because that was when he really blew it out of the water!!!!)

thank god for youtube <3

I really like this site because everyone makes very complimentary remarks about Adam. I also loved his performance and the fact that Jay is a fan. I am getting used to dancers; their performances and costumes make him look absolutely perfect. Any other human that stands near him will not compare favorably to such a handsome, beautiful and talented performer.

Anonymous said...

Loved Adam on Leno and his new hairdo. Still don't care for his dancers, they are not in his league and detract from his performance (sorry my opinion).

This is the best A.L. website ever - thanks.

Anonymous said...

That was an amazing performance. I love dancing - so like the dancers and thought they were on it last night. The part where the dancers and Adam all sync together to the beat is so cool. I loved Sleepwalker when he sang it on Leno and now this. He looked sizzling from top to bottom and his voice matched! Way to go Adam!

A.T.

glitzylady said...

To those with the DVR issues: I have over time discovered that this often happens on Leno, Idol (remember Adam's Mad World fiasco last year....), programs that can sometimes run over. Anyway, when I set my DVR for those types of shows, I always add extra time at the end, to make sure I don't miss anything. Sometimes even add an extra minute at the beginning. Leno's musical performances are almost always at the very end of the show, as are Letterman's etc. Even 30 seconds can make a big difference. You may already know all that but if not, I hope that helps. I used to get so frustrated when that happened, finally realized I could do this. It's part of the record set-up menu. :-) I know I don't want to miss even one second of Adam!

Anonymous said...

I thought he looked and sounded amazing last night, as always. The pants were wild and he wore them well! Loved the overall look, hair was interesting - looked young and fresh - he is always surprising us, as he promised he would do. Tommy and Monte are also developing a unique look that I like! There seem to be a lot of varying opinions on the dancers. I do not believe they "bring the quality of his show down" as some have inferred. Truthfully, I don't watch them that much as I'm lasered in on his performance but I do not think they detract from him. He doesn't use them in all of his songs; they were appropriate for IIHU and the mood of that song. Since the dancer controversy started on this board, I've been paying more attention to dancers for other performers, and frankly, they all seem about the same quality as Adam's. None of them are riviting enough to take your focus away from the star, so let's live and let live and trust Adam's judgment. Chill out, relax and spread the love! I have tickets for two shows this summer and simply can't wait!! Lastly, MAJOR PROPS to this website. It's the only one I visit and am amazed at how quickly things are posted here. For busy professionals, this gives us our Adam Fix in one-stop-shopping! Thank you VERY MUCH for your dedication to keeping this website current. We really appreciate your efforts.

I don't mind the dancers but I have to admit it would have been better without the dancers --- just Adam alone dancing to the beats.

You guys ARE looking at the dancers because they ARE really good and don't detract from Adam. How could they .....DUH! SHEESH or SHUSH (can you do it better (I think NOT) We all love him and support him-he is replay replay REplay REPlay REPLay REPLAY on all his performances!

coloforadam said...

Hey, if those dancers keep him reved up (and I think they really do), bring em' on - THAT was just flig-riggin' beautiful!>YAHHHHHHH!! Dreamed that he would just get better and better but who KNEW!! Adam loves a show - "more is more" quoth the raven, Adam Lambert. So whiny little nay-sayers, get OUT of the way!!

Anonymous said...

I don't think the ideashould be to get dancers that are not so good they detract from the singer. Great dancers would ADD to the act, not detract from Adam.

I don't feel the dancers keep Adam revved up. He is not as into the music or the fans when his dancers are on stage.

More not so good is more not so good.

More Adam with a rock edge, please.

Anonymous said...

the people from dancing with the stars seemed to like them he only uses the dancers for three or four songs so big deal

Anonymous said...

I read somewhere else that maybe the dancers are, at least in part, for the younger crowd. I know my teenage relatives like the dancers, a lot (makes sense). Also read where, for the big Tour production, he's going to need dancers, among other things, to pull off his vision - so maybe just getting started with all that now (makes sense). Who knows, this is just blogging stuff I was reading. I agree with a lot of what "Anon May 22, 2010 9:18 AM" said. And about the "rev'd up" comment - I feel something sort of similiar - I think AL perhaps feels that the dancers give him a - how shall I say it - sort of a freedom, or context maybe, to do certain choreography that he might otherwise not do as it may seem awkward or out of place/context. I don't know if that makes any sense :)... whatever, AL's going to do what he's going to do anyway, so our discussion is rather irrelevant LOL. (and it's not like there's any indication that the dancers are going to be constantly present anyway! I like them, but even if one doesn't, you're okay because there's been no reason so far to believe that their going to be a focal point etc.) Anyway... hope Ellen and Leno appearances give IIHY a bump.
