Adam will be back on when he has time, as you say he has a private life too. PLEASE stop calling him Addy, Eber said he has never been called that. Eber says Adam, or Ad, as do the rest of his friends and family.
drama. drama, drama what does it hurt either way what people are tweeting. geesh.
I agree... Adam, like all of us, has a private life, a family, close friends, and a career. And it IS the holiday season. He's a busy guy. He (wisely) just doesn't share every little thing anymore either. He'll "be in touch" when he has something to share with us... He has some public events coming up very soon. We'll hear from him then... Until then, let him enjoy his private life..
I've noticed no recent tweets from Adam and I have not complained. Even in my head.
I say Atta Boy! Adam. Keep under the radar and finally take some time "off the job". I'll be here when you resurface.
And... People can tweet whatever they wish. And they do... But making a big deal about him and his "twitter silence" is pretty pointless. I would guess it doesn't bother him one way or the other.. ALTHOUGH.... every once in awhile he responds to someone, out of the blue...so he's definitely "lurking"... Just something to keep in mind......
:)))
Adam Just Tweeted! I am sure that Adam would feel that something was amiss if true Glamberts did not express how much they miss him when he did not tweet. Let us not become crabby old ladies complaining about someones tweets of missing Adam tweeter feed. We all love him. We express our love in many different ways... xoxo
As much as I love Adam's tweets I just figured he needed a few days of rest. Those two long flights to China and back must have been exhausting. When he's ready to tweet, we will be here waiting for him.
I think it's more about the spirit of the tweets.. Than just about saying they miss him.. Sometimes the "drama" takes over and fan fic begins.. Pretty sure that's what inspired the subject of the thread topic..
And please be respectful of the "old ladies".. We're all ages in this fandom, and calling people that, whether meant literally or figuratively, can create hard feelings.. and hints at ageism. Just saying... I know what you meant but....... :))))))
@adamlambert: Tux: Dolce & Gabbana, shirt: Givenchy, tie: Lanvin http://t.co/kzWKu9q3Sa
As the saying goes, "Ask and ye shall receive..."
:)))
glitzylady Those are biblical words from Jesus. Not really meant for trivia, like wanting Adam to tweet more. LOL
They work for me... I know who said them.. And they work for me . I don't think it has to be an epic moment to use that quote, but I could be wrong :)))))))))))))))
I just thought it was ironic that just as this topic was being discussed here, Adam tweeted. It was that irony I was referring to... and brought to mind that quote. :)
Just a little attempt at humor....
Oh brother! Nothing important going on in the world to complain about? So you complain about this?
When Adam goes to big events; he usually tweets what he is wearing. Because many fans want to know. I hope he gets an advertising fee or discount. That is a possibility.
Adam is so sweet; I just love him, no complaints hear. Just keep entertaining us BB. Take all the time off from twitter and everything else, that you need to.
I will be here forever and a day!
@2:58 PM Here
correcton/ Should be no complaints (here). Thanks.
Glitzylady, you obviously offended someone's religious beliefs and still you can't straight up apologize and leave it at that.
Sorry, been out of the loop for a few days, so don't know what drama there has been about Adam not tweeting or being under the radar...
What I hoped was that if Sauli is still in Adam's condo that he would be there to greet and pamper Adam when he got back from China, probably totally exhausted... so home cooked meals, lots of sleep etc. That's what friends are for... (isn't that a line from a song?)
I am a fan because of his voice. Adam doesn't owe me anything on twitter. Any tweets or pics are purely gravy.
No celebrity owes us any public contact in my opinion. Tweeting about not getting what you want from Adam or any celebrity is just rude.
I think it is absolutely ridiculous for any one to need to know, who made Adams clothes. Personally I don't care if he buys them off a rack at Sears. In most cases they are grossly over priced if they have a "so called name" attached to them. He wears his clothes well, and usually looks pretty good in what ever he chooses. For me he does not need to tweet who made them, or he might just be joking about the whole thing, and really does buy his clothes , on line, at Sears, LOL. I mean really, even the bow tie?
Okay..I'll apologize.. I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone by using a quote from Jesus. Who was all about loving one another. Something we can all use a little more of: Love..
I was raised Christian, and still have a membership with, and attend, a Christian church (albeit a very liberal one, that has celebrated diversity and inclusiveness for LGBTQ for years).. The Congregational/ United Church of Christ. So I do know my Bible quotes... This really isn't about religion tho is it?? :))
ha ha, still couldn't apologize and leave it that :)))
glitzylady, that was really sarcastic and not in the spirit of the Christianity you are quoting and claiming and you know it.
You are turning it from being about owing someone a simple apology into something else. You ramped it up from a comment that was unintentionally offensive into a purposefully sarcastic and rude comment.
I did nothing wrong. You are just finding ways to say rude things to me. I'm done.
4:30, trust me, not even Adam could pull off a Sears quality tux (if they even make them.) Sometimes you do get what you pay for. Not that I own anything with a designer label but I do look for clothing made with quality and that usually costs more. Lasts longer too.
Wow. Glitzylady really can't see that she offended someone and should sincerely apologize. Instead she has made it about her. Just wow.
We know so much about Adam's career and his personal life from interviews and just the pics we see on this blogsite and his tweets. Sometimes I think I know more about him that I do some members of my own family. He is entitled to a private life and doesn't have to reveal every single thing he does or where he goes to his fans. When he has something important to say, he will. I will always be interested in his career and of course, the third album. In the meantime, we have Glee episodes, his New Year's Eve appearances(hope we get vids of them) and maybe some Queenbert concerts in 2014. That should hold us over for a while. Enjoy the holidays everyone.
AGAIN with the Glitzylady bashing?!! Some here must really have nothing constructive in their lives to concentrate on! Her very first post was absolutely fine! She didn't need to apologize for anything. And yet when she did you interpreted it like she was being snarky!! GROW UP! A little Christmas spirit of love and understanding goes a long way.
xo laura
And please don't tell me I need a little of that Christmas spirit ... I didn't start this silly dog fight!
xo laura
p.s. Adam tweeting about who makes the clothes he's wearing is fun to know. He looked so put together on the China red carpet and it's because of these designers who make clothes that really flatter a man ... or woman.
There is a difference from a Sears suit.
I'm a glitzy fan and even I can see she was unnecessarily sarcastic.
Laura, then don't jump in the dog fight if you can't stand a bite.
Another p.s.
For those that see sarcasm in what Glitzylady posted, check yourself. Usually, if we find a fault in others, it's because we ourselves have that fault.
Spiritual Truth.
xo laura
5:23pm ... You can't see that the bashing is "biting" at thin air?
Glitzylady meant no harm...not one bit. Which is more than I can say for some here.
xo laura
glitzylady meant know harm, I agree. But when she quoted the Bible "as the saying goes" which Jesus said, she used it in a trivial way, which stepped on some peoples religious toes. She did apologize, but could not just leave it at that. She had to justify herself, by saying how she attends church and also knows her bible verses.
Just a sorry, would have been enough. She answered several times to the posts, and still could not do it. It must be a personality thing. Merry Christmas glitzylady, we are all just funning ya. Peace.
For f****s sake,
Lay off Glitzylady, its getting really old hat now the way some of you jump on her for any little thing that you perceive as wrong..
The saying 'ask and ye shall receive' may have originally come from the bible, but it is used nowadays as a normal everyday adage...
I'm with you, HK fan ...
Purposely taking offence where there was none is not Christian. Jesus does not want his devotees to be wimps with thin skin. He wants spiritual warriors.
6:02pm ... And so, after all you wrote, you end with "Merry Christmas, glitzylady, we are all just funning ya. Peace." ... how would you like us to take that?
xo laura
If I unintentionally offended someone with a comment I would apologize sincerely and not trivialize it or be sarcastic.
So many defending glitzylady and so few defending the person who was originally offended.
2:43 PM, I am sorry your wish for words to not be trivialized was not respected.
Being offended does not give someone the right to insist that everyone else share the same sensibilities. If someone wants to reference a quote found in the Bible in a casual manner is their absolute right...just as it is yours to be offended. More tolerance would be helpful in a public forum, especially one devoted to an entertainer whose has espoused nothing but tolerance of others' beliefs.
...or lack thereof, as the case may be
How on earth can someone say something on a public board that offends absolutely no one? If someone of a different religion was offended by your comments requesting respect for biblical quotes because your religion flies in the face of theirs..would that make you wrong? Or them?
And by the way...just because you choose to be offended does NOT make you automatically right.
8:24pm, 8:32pm and 8:40pm ...
Amen, Amen and AMEN!
xo laura
Yet another 'tempest in a teapot'.........ridiculous.....JAK
Thanks! And awesome choice of words lol!
It is not a case of right or wrong. Everyone's religious beliefs should be respected whether we share the same beliefs or not.
I would normally agree...and would much rather focus on the awesomeness that is our Mr. Lambert..but I also don't like to see people get attacked for making innocuous remarks, simply because they don't share others' sensibilities...
So if someone chooses to be offended at a remark made where no offense was intended..does that remark automatically qualify as not respecting religious beliefs? Good heavens we might as well shut down all public blogs now!
How does it hurt to apologize for unintentionally offending someone? I'm pretty sure there would be different comments here if the shoe was on the other foot.
What happened to the common courtesy where when you find out you unintentionally did something that you still apologize? This is what holds society together with less fighting and make the world a more pleasant place to be. I shouldn't be surprised this place would be representing the "it's only about me" viewpoint.
9:28, if you go on to be dismissive and then sarcastic about it, yes.
Yada yada yada
One final comment from me.
I apologized. I meant it. I would never make fun of anyone's religious beliefs. Ever. This blog and this thread is not about me. But some of you chose to make it just that.
My apologies to all who had to read this thread.
It should be about Adam and the fabulous man that he is. Not this. I would delete my comments above but I'm leaving them so that people won't wonder what I said that was so terrible. And they can come to their own conclusions, whatever they may be.
To those who had kind words, thank you.
Sad.
To bring this back to the reason we are all here to begin with...people are offended by Adam Lambert every hour of every day..their religious beliefs don't permit acceptance of gay people, they are offended by the way he dresses, his opinions, his music..you name it. Does he feel the need to apologize because people are legitimately offended? Nope - he recognizes that in public life people will offend him and he will in turn offend others - neither are wrong but if he spent his days doing nothing but apologizing for unwittingly offending people..yeah he wouldn't get much performing done. And no that doesn't mean he (or people defending Glitzylady) are dismissive or sarcastic..they just don't hold the same belief system as others do. And in a public forum THAT Is what deserves our respect and tolerance.
What ever happened to freedom of speech??? Someone choose to innocently quote something from the bible and people go on the attack??? Freedom of speech people, Glitzylady needs not apologize to anyone for anything; she has done nothing, and I mean NOTHING wrong!! Lay off!
Adamo_ski
Geez, how to destroy a thread has been done 1000% here. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. Does that offend the precious and politically correct here? Not bothered if it does. Glitzylady said nothing that was offensive.
As far as Adam's tweets are concerned, it's ridiculous to demand that he tweet just to satisfy the OTT obsessed fans. I'm glad he doesn't tweet often. He has far more important things to do.
(((hugs)))
I'm with JAK...much ado about nothing.
Our guy Adam looking hot as hell in the tux though!
9:58pm ...
... she did apologize, it just wasn't accepted.
If all some people have to do is read Adam's tweets, they seriously need help.
To apologize in a sarcastic manner or simply to prove your point while making lots of excuses is not a genuine apology.
@ Laura xo,HK fan and all that are as tired as I am regarding the obvious, unwarranted snipes at glitzylady. This is another example of looking for any "nit picking" excuse to take a swipe at a person that I have never known to offend anyone. Her unecessary or needed apology was also attacked. I saw nothing disrespectful in her quoting a bible verse that is commonly done everywhere with no one getting their "panties in a wad!" I was raised in the Congregational church that also left the judging to God, "Judge not, lest ye be judged." Saying her apology was sarcastic is another example of petty sniping and had I believe, little to do with religious offense. I think it has more to do with envy of her well spoken, thoughtful posts, so reminiscent of highschool jealousy. The pettiness and need to be arguementative on this site is just ridiculous and is really getting old. Peace,y'all
1:26 AM
You should practice what you preach, your own remarks sound very judgemental and argumentative.
I'm trying to be in a serene peaceful mood here, filled with the joy of the season and good will toward men/women.
I am gratefully celebrating the fact of the birth of Jesus as well as the lovely fable of Santa and his gifting little children. I'm listening to Christmas songs both hymns and the pop kind with snow, sleigh bells, etc. I'm trying to be in a loving mood so would you all please just STFU?
3:56 AM
Sounds like your having a wonderful Christmas, spare a thought for those who are disadvantaged and have no family to share the joy with, or those in hospitals too sick to take part in this wonderful thing you call Christmas. You sound full of your own importance while other's go without. Christmas is about giving not about what you can get out of it for yourself. I admire those who give up their Christmas day to volunteer there time to help those who have no one else, for these people Christmas can be anything but serene or joyful, for some it can be an extremely emotional time full of nothing but distress, so I suggest you should STFU yourself, and instead of complaining about your Christmas being spoilt be grateful for the things have.
funbunn40 loved your comment.You have a way with words. It didn't take 3:37 very long to jump in and prove your point. Whenever I see these long threads I know I will get a good laugh somewhere along the line.
sorry I am going to go with 3:56's first STFU. lol
Having a strong opinion that disagrees with previous posters does not automatically qualify as judgemental and argumentative. With your criteria, no one would be allowed to disagree with anything you say. Convenient for you, perhaps...:) And..you managed to turn valid, general opinions about this site, into a personal attack. Well done! (ok, now THAT was argumentative lol)
And yet you did not answer the question...if someone of a different faith, let's say an atheist, were offended by all these Christian references and posted indicating that..based on your criteria would the Christian have to apologize? Perhaps once the atheist finished apologizing? If I am offended by both sets of comments, do both have to then apologize to me? Lol. By the way if one has the right to post their opinion, the reader has the right to dismiss that post.
So many on this site love to pounce on people for the slightest little thing and set out to put that person back in their place, but in many cases their wrath is far worse than the poster they bare a grievance with and of course others join in bullying the original poster into submission.
Why so many double standards? If people simply scrolled on by and ignored anything they disagreed with things would not get so out of hand and just maybe this site would become a more respectful place to visit again.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, PEEPS!!!!
I follow this twitter handle on twitter, for Adam info, but she really tweets unrealistic and embarrassing stuff too. Time to unfollow her. Why a sane person feels that he /she is entittled to tidbits of a celebrity life, is startling. SMH.
I really do not have anything against glitzzy lady, I THINK she is a warm and nice person, all aggrieved parties *sorry*.
Anon 6:41
You are right about the double standard in this site, especially when a 'newcomer' raises an unfriendly issue,the response is usually terrible But when Regulars with tagged names (patronising marks) do same,the response is more mature and accepting.
#still weird
Anon 8:02 here
Typo****error
Meant a certain twitter handle and regulars with patronising remarks and comments.
@ 4:51 AM. You are barking up the wrong tree! I have paid for 2 surgeries this year through Operation Smile for children with cleft palates, I have donated to St. Jude's,
Metropolitan Ministeries Food Bank, etc.etc. I work as a volunteer at a Judeo-Christian Clinic that provides medical and dental care free to those who can't afford it.
Since I do believe in tithing - just not to a church - 10% of my income yearly goes to charities.
And the reason I'm trying so hard to make this Christmas lovely in every way is because it will be my mother in laws last Christmas, she is dying of colon cancer and wants to be with her son as much as possible so she is here in our house. We are wallowing in Christmas movies, music and every kind of cookie we can bake.
So, though I take the risk of offending - I'd like to suggest "judge not lest ye be judged and be ye kind one to another."
After reading all these comments pro and anti Glitzy lady's remarks, I felt like I was in People's court with arguments on both sides. I thought this site was about Adam and his career. I really am not interested in someone here who posts about personal issues whether it's family, health, religion politics, etc. It then tends to get ugly with uncalled for negative comments. There are other outlets/forums where you can express those views. Everything nowadays has to be politically correct for fear of offending someone's point of view or values. I suppose I'll just go back and watch some of the vids I have saved of Adam's past performances and enjoy them. Watching his AI performances last night brought back some great memories of season 8. Then I could always go back to the Iheartconcert with Queen for a real treat. For me, it's all about the music and everything else is secondary.
12:48 am, a perfect recap.
This wasn't originally about "opinions". We all get those. It was about finding out you offended someone and basically saying I don't care to them. Two different things.
Never ending . Admin. Please kill this thread. It's dead.
Please everybody lay yourselves down in darkness, zimmer down and have whatever kind of xmas, or non-xmas, and promise to be more accepting and friendlier after the holidays!
To those who just wait here to attack someone, roll eyes times 100!
Such an unfortunate and sad thread. Best to put it to rest, eh?
This is unbelievable.
Did any of you actually read the person's comment that was supposed to be so offended by my lighthearted quote from the Bible in regards to the timing of Adam's tweet? There was a LOL! at the end of @Anon 2:43 's comment. It appeared to me that it was not meant to cause the uproar that some of you made it.
When I said "This isn't really about religion, is it??" I was referring to those who took this opportunity to attack me. It became increasingly clear as the thread took it's bewildering turn. To make it something bigger than it actually was to begin with.
I am truly sorry about the direction this thread took. I take full responsibility for everything that was said. And the hate (and misunderstandings) that has been spewed here. I am also truly appalled at the accusations that have been leveled at me. I am also thankful to those who stood up for me.
I cannot be associated with a place that attracts people who on the one hand proclaim tolerance and respect for others and then proceed to attack someone for an innocuous statement where there was no intent to mock or trivialize anyone's religion. If you knew me personally you would know I am not someone who would do that.
So, I take my leave for awhile. I hope this site will go back to being a place of love and respect for Adam Lambert, and as a consequence hoping for the same for his fans who come here to flail. It has gone away from the happy, respectful place it once was. And sometimes becomes a place of hate and bashing.
Peace, Love and Light to those who love Adam Lambert and reflect his attributes of kindness, generosity, intelligence, and love.
@glitzylady
*hugs*
And so, beautiful 8:52am, let's end this crazy thread with your sweet and compassionate comments.
p.s.
Glitzylady, no need to apologise to fellow posters. When we see someone as kind as yourself being attacked for no reason we are happy to come to your defence. What was done to you was silly and mean. Lively discussions are great, bullying is not. We'll just wish all fans here a Merry Christmas and a heart filled with UNDERSTANDING and love.
xo laura
Oh, my computer just registered the last comment from you, glitzylady. Please don't stay away, you will be missed as one of the saner heads here. NONE of this was your fault. We know you are a kind soul and great fan of Adam's. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a New Year full of happy surprises!
xo laura
@glitzylady
please don't leave, you're so needed on this site!
Thanks..I'll be checking the thread topics for Adam news but will keep a low profile for awhile.. For how long remains to be seen :))
Blessings and hugs...
Some people always have to be the center of attention. Announcements of flouncing are always amusing.
@Glitzy.
you know where to come;)
@ 4:23 PM You are pond scum.
LOLOLOLOL
This sounds like grade school so stupid arguing back & forth.I want to hear about Adam but not all os this garbage.
Oh my goodness. My kindle popped me back to this thread since it was the last one I was on from Saturday. I know exactly what Glitzylady is going through. Same thing happened to me. I'm really sorry Glitzylady! I guess if we have a tag we become labeled and remembered any time we make a comment that SOMEONE might disagree with. Thank God for the nice respectful people on this site is all else that I'm going to say. Oops sorry one more thing. Merry Christmas to those that celebrate. Ok I'm ready for my attack. Oops sorry I said one more thing. Lol.
Yea, 7:42pm- LOLOLOLOL and 10:44pm, it's all fun and games until someone gets unfairly targeted in mean attacks for Trying to just have some innocent fun here.
Do you guys stick up for those being bullied? Just curious.
xo laura
Having a tag does not excuse you from being thoughtless and disrespectful towards others and running away from the problem does nothing to resolve it.
