Seems like a great person to work with. Nile has been around for a while, experienced. He knows great talent. Glad Adam and Nile found each other. He can help Adam out so much. I like how he is promoting Adam. Yea Yea
yipee.
Great exposure.
Nile Rodgers is a great legend and a fine gentleman who truly respects Adam's amazing talent. I love how Adam has such wonderful friends around him who have his back and want him to be successful. Adam's skills are obvious to those in the know. I think that says it all...nancdruuu2
@3:30 yup you said it all perfectly!
If you were in a conversation with Nile and Adam, you'd never get a word in - they are both TALKERS!
ok who is going to Nile's benefit. He is working so hard Please everybody show up that can.
Adam's talent is undeniable but it is his warm/charming personality and how he connects with people that is responsible for the respect he receives from so many people in the industry. I remember how Adam handled himself on Idol especially during and after the judges critiques; he was always so gracious and praised everyone who helped him. A true gentleman.........that's our Adam!

Listening to Nile is a treat, the man has a pleasant voice and what a huge career he has had! Nice to listen to somebody with a liiiiitle bit of perspective to making music that gets your feet & body moving & grooving...
Great that Adam Lambert's name is now being mentioned on mainstream TV and radio (again this morning as well on Live with Kelly and Michael via Chris Colfer). I hope that Adam will be directed properly during Glee and make a really great impression with his acting (and not overact). We already know that he can sing extremely well and is a showman. All he has to do is be great like he is during his live shows (always better than in videos).
Just wish I could go but I am just starting school. Darn :(
If Adam's acting in the Time For Miracles and Better Than I Know Myself clips is anything to go by, he has the makings of a great actor. His acting in both clips is superb and he's much better at acting than a lot of present-day actors.
What Adam has to do with regards to acting is be subdued and not overact.
He is the type whose inherent personality comes out (a happy friendly positive always with a ready smile persona) why think he prefers to just be himself rather given a role.
As when he guested as a vampire on PLL, I laughed when he couldn't help himself when conversing with that girl actress to be a smiling (with fangs) friendly vampire!!! LOL!
I laughed because that is the real Adam, not a vampire.
Nile Rodgers is like Quincy Jones. QJ produced MJ's albums: Off The Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Nile produced records for Madonna, David Bowie, Diana Ross, Duran Duran, etc. etc. I believe he has his own label or record co. If Adam is signed to Nile's label, he can make Adam a really awesome album. He is one of the best iconic musician. Can I be OT and say he is better for Adam to work with than Queen? After all Nile has the best summer hit single Get Lucky under his belt and Queen doesn't have any. Let's hope LMD is going to be Nile's second best single soonish.

Too far from where I live.
Adam has slowly and methodically been building solid relationships with respected icons in the music business like Nile, Brian May, Roger Taylor that have been around a long time, have seen and done it all and recognize Adam's unique vocal ability, stage presence and best of all, genuinely like and respect him in turn. Adam is loyal, savvy and has no pretense. He has golden opportunity to learn and execute with these men that are a wealth of knowledge.Adam as a guest on other artists albums is a way to get into US hallowed territory. He will be noticed and be seen as not just another reality shoe alumni.
Oops, Typo "Reality show alumni!"( not shoe!) Can't type or think when Adam crosses my thought process!
I thought the story about Madonna was un-classy.
Just because you work with someone who's now famous...you shouldn't tell stories about them.
He's 68 yrs old and wants everyone to know that Madonna thought he should want her...wow...what an Ego. Shame on him.
@5:20 I assume you don't know much about Madonna and her career from the beginning.
FYI Madonna dated Dennis Rodman. GaGa is so conservative..
nile didn't bring up the Madonna story did he? Maybe he bought his own props I don't know.
@5:20am. Nile is 60 and Madonna is 54. HP brought up the story and Nile tried to give his story. No big deal. And he is a gentleman.
Madonna also was after Antonio Banderas in early 90's who turned her down.
