Adam Lambert 24/7 News

This simply makes me feel as if my heart will shatter into pieces. I want to hug Shane, but of course, he already has a loving Mom to do that......thank heaven .
Every young person I see in pain reminds me of my young person, my boy, and I want to hug them and makes things better for them. A pretty natural reaction.......JAK

It just break my heart....

I hope that this film opens lots of hearts and minds. Love is love.

I feel like that to JAK I put myself in their place ad imagine my eldest darling grandson who at 17 is still my boy.
This doco is a must see. Unfortunately the people who need to see it will be the ones that don't.

I watched the documentary with three other friends and we discussed it (after we finally heard Adam's ethereal voice sing OOL) and a few questions were brought up as we hashed things over about the relationship. Could Tom possibly have committed suicide? His father sounded like a very disturbed psycho and perhaps caused Tom to have had deep dark thoughts on the inside even though he displayed such joy on the facade of his emotions. Something just didn't seem quite right about the way his death was reported. At any rate, a beautiful love story and maybe, just maybe, it might enlighten some hardened hearts to the discovery of acceptance in this cruel society of unacceptance. Thank you, Shane.

I wish there was some way I could watch it.

11:04, I know a woman who lost her husband when he was doing something on their roof and took one step back. That one step back was off the roof and he died. It's not an unimaginable accident.

Jadam, can you sign up for a free month of Netflix?

Due to a recent hospitalization,my husband put the Bridegroom documentary on DVR and I was able to watch it when I came home today.Watching this story just breaks my heart. I can't begin to understand how anyone can be so invested in the intimate life of another human being-whether it's a relative, friend or complete stranger.

And, just so you know, I was raised Catholic in a time and place where homosexuality was not even mentioned until my adulthood. I wasn't raised in a home where hatred for gay people was ever uttered and when my own children came home from high school and shared some of the hateful, ugly words they were hearing,they asked me if gay people were going to hell {as they were being told by classmates.} I told them that in our house, we don't decide who goes to hell. And according to God, people are judged by WHAT THEY DO, not WHO THEY ARE. My children are grown now--and on their own, they have decided to attend Pride parades -with their young children,{my grandchildren} the have friends of all backgrounds and sexual orientation.

What I'm trying to say is that I feel the only way to stop all this ignorance and intolerance of others is by example and education and I have tried to go my little part through the way I have raised my children. That is my contribution to honor the lives of Tom and Shane. Not quite as far reaching as the gift of Adam's beautiful song, but a tribute just the same.

By the way, I am home from the hospital, healing and on the mend soon. It will take a little longer to mend my heart after watching Shane's tale of terrible loss.

@ lorraine....JAK here.....I am sorry to hear you've been in the hospital , but glad you are home and mending. You expressed yourself beautifully. Children learn by example and the only way to fight prejudice is thru generations of people raised without it. To whom acceptance of all is a natural thing.

My early years were spent in a very racially divided USA, so I was a young adult when desegregation began and I was by then living in the South. It was often brutal and I couldn't understand why. I spent my early years living in almost every part of the US, except the far west coast so ethnicity and race was not something to fear , my southern Missouri mom and northern New Jersey dad had friends of all national and racial backgrounds.

As an innocent I didn't even know what homosexuality was till I was about 18....it was barely whispered about and not at all in my circle of family and friends. When I questioned my parents they were as unflapple as ever.
"God loves us all". That was enough for me.

Thru my daughters as they grew up I saw their complete acceptance of racial and sexual differences and was so proud of them. And now, my g'son's environment in Orlando and thru his jobs at Universal and Disneyworld
he knows more gay people than straight.....creative, talented, actors, singers, dancers, design staff, engineers, costumers......he sees all people for who they are not what label is hung on them. I'm hopeful for the future. But it will take a few more generations before pockets of prejudice will thin out.

Children do learn by example and what responsible parent would wish to teach their children to hate?

I grew up in a home where race was an issue and orientation was never mentioned. But by the time I left home for college I had figured things out on my own and knew my parents were wrong. Luckily people can learn differently than how they were raised and hearing a story like Bridegroom can change minds too. Sadly I don't think you can ever erase all forms of prejudice but I think within just a few years everyone in the US will have marriage equality.

Shane is such a wonderful young man. My heart goes out to him and his family. That was such a beautiful thank you message he took the time to relay to Adam. So glad the Adam was involved in the Documentary by donating his beautiful song "Outlaws of Love".

I went back and played Adam's song on my DVR and it sounded even more beautiful than the night before. I sure hope that most people watched it until the very end of the credits so that they did not miss it. What a beautiful way to end it. Evidently, Shane was very moved by it. Thank you Adam for your wonderful donation to Shane's beautiful Documentary.

it does break your heart on many levels especially that a young life was lost. It reminds me in many ways of Tom Ford's" A Single Man"2009 release. It was told first and I believe very beautifully and artistically done. If you want to watch a good movie rent it on itunes. Highly recommend it

5:47, I saw "A Single Man" when in came out. It stars Colin Firth, a wonderful actor. If any of you haven't seen it, please try to rent it, buy it or find it online. It's a beautiful story. Firth is fantastic in it. It's a good companion piece to "Bridegroom."

DRG

Just to add, I think it is a testament to Adam that we are all so much more aware of these kinds of events and stories than we probably were in the past. I have always been very liberal-minded, but it is Adam who has opened my eyes and heart to these issues even more. I probably wouldn't have given A Single Man or Bridegroom much attention before Adam, but now I realize the power of these kinds of films in society. Thanks, Adam.
