MTV's Musical March Madness: Green Day Vs. Adam Lambert

Filed Under ( ) by Admin on Tuesday, March 15, 2011

Posted at : Tuesday, March 15, 2011



From MTV:

Adam Lambert made a surprise splash in last year's tournament, playing the upset card for a few rounds before flaming out. He'll have another uphill battle this time around, as he has to take on Green Day, one of the biggest and most dominating rock bands on the planet. Green Day could have easily taken a number one seed with the success of "American Idiot" on Broadway and their blistering new live album Awesome As F--- about to drop. They'll have something to prove, but can they prove it against the feisty former "American Idol" star?

I have been voting for the past hour or so and Adam is moving up slightly since the Glambert Nation got wind of this contest. Since we had no idea this was coming up today, we will have to play catch up. ADAM ALERT!! VOTE, VOTE, VOTE. How long is this voting open? anyone know?

I have voted from Canada but it seems that you can only vote one time. Am I right? When I try 2nd time, it said I've already voted.

Perhaps once a day. Not every twenty minutes, I have tried that.

First round of voting I was able to vote multiple times (about 12 or 15 votes) then they "locked" me and said they would unlock me after a "cooling off" time. So I tried again after a couple of hours and it said "we've already counted your vote". Waited another couple of hours now and it took my vote! So go figure! IDK! Let's keep trying, okay?

The fact that Adam is there and up against Green Day is an acheivement in its self. We will keep voting anyway, right.

I hate polls when they don't tell you when the voting ends( hrs,days,or what?)I've voted til I got the"we've already received your vote"also.Don't forget to keep voting for the idol of the month,where Adam is winning( unless we get too distracted)...Green Day was so far ahead when we found out about this new poll; a BIG head start..I will keep voting when it lets me,tho.

I was able to vote 25 times before I got locked out. Will go back later.

I'll try one more vote tomorrow, as it seems I can vote only once a day. It's not fair! Icon wants to vote too, but I have only one computer at home!

Think the voting going on until Sunday, not positive. I have voted many times today, but you have to go out and back into the site to vote again. It's not like the top 20 where you can continually vote on site.

Green Day almost 79%, Adam only 24%. Will try again tomorrow. Crazy choices. Green Day should have been against U2.Strange, not even in the same category. funbunn40

I NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO PIT ONE ARTIST AGAINST ANOTHER (especially when one is a group and the other a solo artist). MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER AND IS JUST DESIGNED TO START FAN WARS. What is MTV trying to accomplish with this? I mean, U2 against Kesha -- What the f...?

Anonymous said...

can someone please help me...when voting for idol of the month..if i don't twetter...do i click on where it says i am human to vote?

Anonymous said...

I voted numerous times on th Adam vs. Green Day vote the first time. Then I went back and it said my vote was already counted. I will go on again tomorrow. Why would they compare Adam to Green Day, it's weird very different. But also Kesha against U2? U2 very talented, Kesha not so much.

Anonymous said...

Actually, we doing very good on Green Day sr ADam. Becaus it Adam has 17% aroud 2:00pm

U2 against Kesha. Really? Green Day against Adam....I don't know but the percentage isn't moving for Adam and I don't think it is working - or was it just for the Glambert hits on their site? When the polls don't reflect accurately I sort of get skeptical...sorry. I'll check back to it tomorrow and hope that I am completely wrong.

Do these polls actually MEAN anything? Or is it just to keep fans busy?

What I HATE about this is that Green Day and Adam are my two favorite ones. I LOVE both... I feel guilty for not immediately leaning towards Adam, though.

Anonymous said...

I think we got started too late with this one,but I like Green Day too after Adam.

Anonymous said...

I think you have to reload the web site ever time you vote, I try that for about 10 times and I can see the % increase slightly each time .

@ Anomymous @ 5:40pm,yes to vote for Adam for American Idol of the month,& you're not on twitter( like me)vote when you see the "I am human",that's IS where you start,fill in the letters &/or numbers.If you can't make out the letters,etc sometimes,you get another chance..type in those different letters( with a space between the "words"..)you can vote every 20 mins.

Anonymous said...

These polls are reallhy meaningless but they do keep the performers we like out in the public eye. So I guess it doesn't hurt to do it. I vote just because I'll do anything to support Adam. It's not like there's a "winner" or anything. Just bragging rights.

Thanks 24/7 for finally putting this up - Your usually awesome- alittle late but thank-you for getting on board. VOTE GLAMBERYts- seriously do you think green day is better than adam???

Anonymous said...

I just voteD like 20 times and moved him up a whole point. Glamberts lets do this, it's all about the fan base and we ARE THAT and somE! gREEN DAY HAD A HUGE START OVER ADAM, NO ONE KNEW ABOUT THIS. cATCH UP!!!, iT'S EASY TO DO. wE ARE SO KNOWN FOR BEING THIS PASSIONATE FAN BASE- LET'S PROVE IT!

Anonymous said...

I just voted - but it only let me vote once. I went back, in a disguise (dressed as Dusty Madrid), but that MTV site was just too wicked smart for it's own good and said "uh uh, ginger, we know it's you under there!" and told me my vote had already been counted. Oh whatevs, MTV! You totally dissed Adam at your last award show, and now you have a dumb poll like this, where he's far, far behind (Adam 22.5 vs Green Day 77.5). It's time for a royal, glittery smack-down!

No, seriously - I love Green Day!! Love. These polls are kinda ridiculous, and I usually don't vote in them, but as someone said; "keeps Adam in the public eye" - and we have to show MTV that Adam is worthy of competing with the "big boys" since they've totally snubbed him when it came time to hand out "best new artist" awards. Grrr!

It should of been keisha vs adam (although that's his girl) but it should of been 2 bands against each other.. This is a totally strange analogy. I'm still voting but what were they thinking on this duo fight (makes NO SENSE AT ALL) Green day had like a 4 day head start that's why adam is so far behind. Sneaky bastards lol I saw this poll last week but could not vote until today and was like how did that happen so fast with green day????

Anonymous said...

OH You can vote alot of times, anyway I did and moved him up a whole point.

I actually voted in my computer class tonight about 20 times ( that teacher is so boring and don't know why I'm there)

mtv is tricky -fraud mtv they ditched adam lambert; thyre jealous.mtv knows people all over the world are crazy about adam voice-his music.
this is a fan game to them. humiliation.dont trust mtv ever.dont trust the grammy people executive-they pick the unknown singer bruno mars the black guy.id never expect they hate so much the handsome successful adam lambert.
i remebr also adam want to collaborate cristina aaguilaera and lady gaga nothing happen no comment.we just keep buying adam lambert songs-his music.

Anonymous said...

Who gives a flying fuck about this stupid pole. Why are they piting Kesha against U2 knowing she doesn't have a snowballs chance to win against such a classic group. I don't like Kesha, but let's get real.

We have short memories. Poles don't mean crap. Why is MTV doing this anyway. Think about it and direct your voting energy towards slamming MTV and writing to them.

Anonymous said...

It's after 1:00 am and Adam has hardly moved for the number of fans at several different sites that say they are voting. MTV completely ignored Adam at their award show and this seems to be a lesson in futility, other than they are getting hits on their site. Sorry, but you know what Green Day wins the stupid poll and.....so what.

Anonymous said...

we don't need to be slamming anybody, just don't vote.

No, just slam each other. That's always fruitful--bad choice of words.

Just found this and voting now.

Is the right link to the American Idol of the Month site ....

I've just voted there and Adam appears to be in front?? I can't find Clay Aiken on that site.

On the American Idof the Month site, I've been told to 'Wait'!! My 20 mins will be past soon. ; :-O Currently 3690 votes for Adam.

Adam v. Green Day - HUH?!?!

Green Day v. U2 would be much more like it!!

Anonymous said...

Wow, I voted & got it to move ALMOST 2 full points when it said it received too many votes from me... but it DID move!!!!
Adam IS gaining..!

(I thot it was an odd match-up too... but let's help Adam win!)

Unlike the Grammy poll which wasn't going to matter anyway, THIS is seen ON MTV.. and with all the buzz about Green Day's Broadway show--this might REALLY matter to get Adam's name noticed... LET'S KEEP VOTING!!!

Look how much money we raised for Charity: Water... we can DO this!!!!

C'mon Adam Fans!! Let's show the love & really shock those G'day & MTV folks...

Anonymous said...

I'll bet if the Adam fans started voting at the same time the Green Day voters did, the poll would be a lot closer and I'll bet Adam would be ahead! Too bad we got a late start on this one. Oh well. These polls will keep cropping up all the time. They keep the fans busy and keep them going to the poll sites. I would LOVE Adam to beat out Green Day! I agree that there is a benefit to doing well on an MTV poll since MTV is pretty high profile on this kind of thing. I t would bring GREAT ATTENTION to Adam and the fact that he has a huge fan base!

Anonymous said...

I see that Adam's numbers are slowly creeping up. We just might do it yet! Keep it up, Glams!

@ aunt Adam Fix

We've tryied disguises too, aunt, mommy got dressed like a common european striped silver&darkgray cat and I was wearing a white uniform, a chef hat and had a big wood spoon under my arm. Mommy allowed me to vote for sweet Adam first, but then, when she tryied to vote they said: «Your silly talking mom has voted already, now you cook-chef cat go to play with your pink teddy bear». Well at least they got a bit confused and thought mommy was ME! Meaw-ha!

Anonymous said...

Green Day has an enormous, well-established fan base, and while Adam may not win this one (yet), with our help, I sure we'll see to it that he makes a decent showing. Who knows, one day the fans of some new artist will be saying the same thing when paired off against the hugely popular and internationally famous Adam Lambert. LOL... VOTE with Love, VOTE for Adam.

I am still voting as it is a statement that he is moving forward. It is a stupid poll, making no sense whatsoever, but at least his name is being put forward. Keisha vs U2? I Believe this is open until Sunday and we can move Adam way further than he currently is.

Anonymous said...

Surprise surprise but adams numbers are going up. STILL NOT WINNING BUT LOOKING BETTER. KEEP VOTING.

Anonymous said...

I was so gun-ho about voting only because it shows adam's incredible fan base and I'm proud of that. On the other hand I agree with 9:21, 10:05 and 10:15. MTV has sucked when it comes to adam and this will probably be fixed (maybe) since we didn't have a head start. But in the long run, voting for adam on this matter because of the fan base out wins my dislike for MTV. mixed emotions, but I'm still going to vote my once a day allowed quota lol

Green Day fans starting to vote and Adam's slowing down. Let's not let this happen.

@brownie, you can vote more than once a day, but you have to leave quite a break in between.

spending my free time LOL,i calculated from 9.10pm yesterday to 7.10am today(my time) a difference of 10 hours there was 1.62% increase. At this rate, it will take around 6-7 days to reach 50% - why such a slow ride?

tess4ADAM said...

I haven't been able to vote at all for 3 days ... I just sit here talking back to my computer when it says I've already voted ... BUT THAT WAS THREE DAYS AGO!!! I've tried everything I know but the result is the same ... so I just keep voting FUTILE-ly ... well I'm off to faxo.com to vote for ADAM for Mr _Twitter too ... he's way behind there but we're at least making progress & my votes COUNT!! Love 'n Light
