Adam Lambert Retweed CNN Tonight : "Apologizing and moving on does not make the world a better place for people who are gay or people who are transgender, being an ally does," says CNN's @DonLemon, reacting to the Oscars' openness to Kevin Hart's return

I am a fan of Don Lemon. He's very articulate and perceptive. Been watching him for several years.
OT for this thread: It would be nice if Adam got to attend the Golden Globe Awards tonight. I know that Roger Taylor and his wife will be attending in support of the BoRhap movie and Rami Malek. I know Adam just had a tiny cameo, but he WAS in the movie. And he is the official frontman for Queen, so I just thought it would be cool if he got to be there in the audience. I don't expect he will be there, but just kind of wishing.
I agree Dee R Gee.
It appears to me that Kevin Hart does not wish to apologize because he still feels he's RIGHT to be homophobic. It's very kind of Ellen and Don to give Kevin a "way out", but expecting him to become an ALLY, when he is still very "unapologetically" homophobic, seems to be unrealistic.
Kevin needs a lot of education....if he would be open minded enough to accept it. I consider homophobia and racism as coming from the same mindset....the NEED to feel superior to someone!
Okay, coming from a Singaporean, a totally different perception with regard terms like 'ally' or worse, throwing LGBT youths into dustbins and labelling them as trash!
I have no qualms at all, gay or not...as long as one's cause for what they do is pure, meaning doing something for what it entails and not for extra attention or to keep their show / persona on high ratings; not only Kevin Hart, comedic show hosts need to have more civility in cracking jokes at another's expense...have more finesse.
Agree with Don Lemon, in such a dire situation as quoted by him with high % of LGBT black youths or white for that matter, why exacerbate their dire plight, let them find their way in a more empathetic environment. Beating one's children...force never works! Parenting and guidance courses could alleviate such a dire LGBT situation. It would be good for parents of gays/lesbians/transgenders to attend counselling on how to manage/treat their LGBT children on a regular basis, say once a month.
As for 'ally', well, I always stand with people who are oppressed / suppressed, gay or not cuz that is a direct violation of their human dignity/right! And I always tell these high and mighty : Wake up! How perfect are you anyway?
I so agree with Don Lemon, and honestly,p was not aware of the statistics in the African American community. We still have a long way to go.
Also agree Nanbert. I have never been a bigot its ignorance. Unfortunately I have fought against it long and hard in some parts of my own family, not talking about my girls. As far as I know there was not much of that on my side of the family. Most of my immediate family has passed on. But there is some in the family. I was never raised to be against people because they were born different from myself.
I must say Adam has open my eyes to the fight of the Gay community and what its fought for and continues to fight for.
Unfortunately there are bigots of all denominationsand races. I wish you and all on here Happy 2019 and a fabulous year for Adam.
Watching The GG only because of BR being nominated.saw Brian sitting at a table with Rami M. Did not see Rodger but he could be on other side of the table.
The post above me thank you. You have all put it so well. All of you. I just saw all the posts.
LAM-My thank you for your insight in to your culture and what the experiances have been where you live. Unfortunately their is unimaginable cruelty all over this world and in Anerica still on this new year of 2019. Correction that was Thank you for all posts above.
Hi there Sue, always nice to hear from you!
We in our small country, cannot afford to have separate groups pitting against one another, we will be sowing seeds of our own downfall. We accept gays/lesbians/trans exactly like any of the so-called straight people. And I think it's highly plausible in any country if they do a roundabout change in their mindset. Like I said in above comment: How perfect is any of us anyway? Transgender marriages are treated equal to any other marriage here in Singapore and their gender is stated according to their trans status on their ID/IC/Identity Card but not on their Birth certificates; simply because they have gone through a sex change conducted/verified by gynecologists/surgeons/psychiatrists who see them over a course of a few years before carrying out the procedure. Same sex marriage not legalised...some way to go, unlike trans who are of opposite sex. Our LGBT people are treated equally like any of us.
Sue, not trying to paint a rosy picture with regard LGBT in my country but relatively safe and fair compared with what is revealed above. There will always be discrimination like in employment, gossips etc.
OT....Latest news from the Golden Globes Awards....."Bohemian Rhapsody" has just won Best Motion Picture.....and Rami Malek has won Best Actor!!! Brian and Roger looked very happy and VERY distinguished. Adam was not there.
I understand Lam-My. This country has grown from discrimination it's gotten better. But unfortunately we still have a long road for more fairness all people. That also includes the more elderly people of this country.
Just finished watching the Golden Globes! I assume there will be a new thread tomorrow but I just couldn't resist posting!
Rami Malek won Best Actor in a Drama!
Bohemian Rhapsody won Best Picture!
Brian and Roger were SO thrilled! Congrats to all of them!
I think A Star Is Born was favored to win some of these categories, but it was somewhat of an upset. I saw ASIB, and I thought the performances were great but it didn't touch me emotionally as I expected it would. But BoRhap just blew me away, even with its "flaws." It just touched my heart.
Much more tomorrow, I'm sure!
There is some good news RM won best actor in a drama and BR best picture. So all those news shows that said the Star Is Born was wrong. Brian and Rodger looked Handsome. Saw no ladies at their table.
I know this is off topic but some good news for Queen and their new concerts. Not sure if their are any tickets left except maybe from scalpers.TSIB I believe won one for LGG song sang in movie.
DEE R Gee beat me to it. First time I watched all this show. So very thrilled for them all. Especially Brian and Rodger. Without them or of course FM this movie would not have been made.
Also happy for the gift from God Adam
For helping bring this wonderful crazy talented band to the reincarnation they have had with their fabulous music and concerts for going on 7 years.
Thrilled for tbe success of this movie and RM did a really great job.
Congratulations the movie well deserved it.
I'm over the moon that Rami Malek won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Drama and Bohemian Rhapsody won the Golden Globe for Best Picture - Drama. Love, love, love the movie and Rami's acting was brilliant. Such a joyous occasion for Brian and Roger, all the other actors and everyone involved with the production of this movie.
After all this cant wait for Adam's Playmobil movie and his original song in the movie this year.
Did the movie BR get nominated for an Oscar and RM. Have not heard of those nominations are out yet. Guess on to the SAG awards. There are many people who are involved in the success of this movie congrats to them all.
Hope Adam wins for the Dorian awards for best TV musical performance for the Kennedy Center Honnors. He richly deserves it.
RM is nominated for best actor for BR.
for the Dorian awards as well. One played the Queen Frontman for the past century and one is the current frontman for the band Queen. Hope they both win.
I found this on Ytube ... Rami Malek's acceptance speech at Golden Globes .. Brian & Roger were there & you get a glimpse of them in the video .. both looked very distinguished & pleased!! Here it is ... really nice speech!!

So pleased they won ! Brian and Roger looked great, as it was in LA, I was a bit surprised Adam wasn't with them though, thought he may have been invited as their guest, unless he was busy working ?
Brian said when he was getting ready for the award show that he felt 15 but looked 89. Both Brian and Rodger looked fantastic. All men were at their table did not see wives.
Said in an article this was first of this type show they went to. So they dressed up. After all believe it was their first movie. This movie was years in the making. But well worth it. Heard the oscar were being nominated today.
What I love about BoRhap's success is that Adam does reap some of the benefits. The movie heightens the general interest in Queen from people who know them only casually or not at all. By association, the awareness of Adam is also heightened. The next QAL tour has had even more demand for tickets than the previous ones. Many will go and see Adam for the first time. There are new Glamberts who will be born this year.
And of course, he was the best trucker in the whole movie. Period.
Freddie Mercury Nephew Interview BBC
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9C9cYxEYRZs
Dee R Gee....haha....yes, Adam was the BEST trucker!
Like you, I feel that the movie will have caused increased interest in Queen....and their upcoming tour....but I can't help but be concerned about Freddie fans (old, and possibly some new because of the movie) attacking Adam with renewed vigor. And the Marc Martel fans are also offensive, too.
On the other hand, the movie will bring new fans for Queen....and most likely for Adam, too, because HIS talent, stage presence and performance cannot be denied....and he is here, alive, and stunning!
I can't wait for QAL in Pittsburgh on July 31st! I'm taking my grandson....Hurray!
Didn't anyone see the clip of Brian looking around for his "gfG", and then saying there he is. Adam came in view of whoever was filming, and said Hi Brian, and then said he was working with Brian on some new song for the tour. It looked like they were backstage when things were being set up for the show, I might be wrong about where they were.
I wonder what is in the future for Rami, will this movie be the springboard for future rolls, or a one off because of the success that BR had before it was even filmed.
Nanbert, you're right, Martel's fans are extremely aggressive. Generally, Freddie's fans are far less aggressive than Martel's fans. I have found on youtube comparisons between Martel and Adam and the vast majority posting comments supported Martel.I tried to support Adam and they started to offend me. Some wrote that Adam should be assassinated.Others claimed that Martel's concerts are much better than Q + AL concerts and that Brian and Roger have become senile and should retire. I was shocked by the comments posted. The fact that in the film Bohemian Rhapsody some songs are sung by Martel I hope not to generate even more aggressive comments on Adam. I think Adam's fans should be more active on Youtube and support Adam.
I think Roger and Brian have mistaken in promoting this tribute band and this Freddie imitator. They have done nothing but lose many fans who now prefer Martel's concerts and who are constantly offending Brian and Roger
Mirela, If I am correct, Brian and Roger selected Marc Martel themselves when the Queen Extravaganza band was formed. They chose him because he resembled Freddie and sounded like him and could act similar to Freddie.
They chose Adam because he did NOT look like Freddie, did NOT sound like him, and did NOT copy Freddie onstage.
I still can't understand why Marc Martel fans believe that for one second Brian and Roger would want to perform with a Freddie impersonator type of front man. That would be SO CHEESY and inappropriate and Brian and Roger know it.
If you want to see a Freddie impersonator, Marc is an excellent one, so go see him.
If you want to see as close to the real Queen as you will ever get, go see QAL.
Mirela, I would NEVER engage in arguments with these people. Never. There is no changing their minds, so don't try. You will only stir the pot worse and intensify the hate speech. Let them be. Adam will be just fine and so will QAL.
The QAL concerts have all been sold out. These new ones sold like hot cakes. 2 at Madoson Square Gardens are you kidding me. Have you scene M Martel on TV on major shows lately like Adam and more to come. He is a FM impersonator. They have said over and over the last thing they want is a FM impersonator. From what I heard they have not rehired MM for the tribute band they hired someone else or sure but read that on YT. He is for tribute band or some back vocals because he sounds similar. He sounds similar to FM many say he not even close. He similar in sound but that's where it ends.
He does not have the stage presents near Adam's and Adam's voice is mind blowing. More important he not a damn copy cat.
Adam has been a major part in bringing this band to the great success and reincarnation they have had now long with their fantastic talents. B and R would be the first to tell you that.
MM fans are full of crap. Brian and Rodger or far from senile. They know who they want and they have him that's Adam Lambert. It will never ever happen with MM fans want to live in La L lander them.
Most of the real Queen fans that are not on YT or the internet just trolling
And actually go to the QAL concerts have said great things about the concerts and Adam. There will always be fans of others and just plain trolls who want to bring this extremely sucessfulunion of QAL down it's not happening. As they hVe said in the past what they are doing with Adam is every bit as big as what was done with FM and they for the most part are getting great reviews. Tbe Adam Queen association is working beautifully and Adam not going any where but on concert with Queen.
Why pay so much attention to the same fans who over and over post the same crap. I honestly doubt MM has the fan base Adam does and its growing all the time. Why worry about these people who mean nothing in the midst of things there are far more lovers of QAL tban their are haters. If that was not true there would not be sold out concerts for 7 years and counting. This movie will and has helped QAL. So why get all worked up about a bunch of asses on the internet. You really think B and R care about that when they have had the fantastic success they have had with Adam. Correction that was Madison Square Garden also correction let MM fans live in there own La La land because it's not happening.
Every thing is fine with Queen and Adam why get all worked up over bunch jealous MM fans who are never going to a Queen Mark Matel concert NEVER.
Few mistakes but for heaven sakes this movie is doing great things for QAL, Brian and Rodger and Rami M. So why get all upset about it. It's all good forget those trolling fans of others.
Yes always back Adam when you can. But really they are not hurting QAL at all.
Actually they are hurting MM more than they know not helping him at all.
I have often wondered why Brian and Roger even have Martel's group doing concerts. It seems to me to be a conflict between Martel and QUAL. Since Qual tours world wide, and is so successful, why do they have an impersonator as well. I have heard that Martels group are very good, but qual is even better, and has the original people as well. Are they in a contract with Brian and Roger, I assume so. Can he let them go?
Someone told me that front men singers who have taken the place of the original singer, don't get paid much, is this true? I assumed Adam was paid well, but not as much as Brian and Roger. Are there any stats on this?
We don't know exactly how much Adam earns from QAL, but it certainly seems like it's A LOT of money. Certainly Brian and Roger make more. They are the original founders of the band and they are in charge. The amount someone makes is always negotiated in a contract.
I think Adam getting paid well. That might be true if the frontman was still alive and they were trying to get a cheaper one. Dont believe that teue in this case at all. Brian and Rodger went after Adam not Adam after them. He obviously makes money on his own and will make more $ once single and albumcome out and hopefully a concert.
He done a movie that's coming up and much more we dont even know about. However look at him he has a house he trying to sale that's paid for another beautiful house I believe he getting work on. Who knows he may have moved in last week or so but if not he will.
He doing very well. People say alot of things they dont really know about.
I say he getting paid nicely he was tbe highest earning idol a year or so back.
Sure he did real well last year.
About the tribute band and MM does much of that on his own has nothing to do with Queen. Like the concert he did abroad with an orchestra had zero to do with Queen. Only thing he uses their music probably with no permission.
Tbey did hire him for the tribute band originally but I have heard they hired someone else now not him. I dont really know if that true.
He was hired to do back up vocals in the movie because he sound some what similar to FM. However he only did some of the vocals alot of it was recordings of FM used for vocals for RM.
That has really nothing to do with the real concerts of QAL that are enormously successful. Mark M fans just want to live in La La land like I repeatedly said.
He is one of the highest paid from Idol. Kelly Clarkson has more according to Forbes, and Underwood beats them both. Adam is very comfortably set, and he has worked hard for it, and deserves every penny he makes. Forbes claims he is worth 20 million. I did not see BR because I cannot bring myself to see anyone else sing the Queen songs other than Adam. That's just me.
Adam is so brilliant in qual, that anyone else would be a poor substitute, I guess I have a closed mind when it comes to Adam. I never really liked Freddie. I am glad the movie did so well, and I am sure Rami deserved his win. For me there is only Adam. JMO. So sad that Adams house was broken into along with several other stars, I hope he gets his jewelry and other expensive items back.
Anne Marie I understand how you feel. I am the same for me there is only Adam and I was never a fan of FM. I wanted to see the movie because everyone said it was so good. Just wanted to see for myself and it's hard for me because I am handicapped.
I enjoyed the movie it was good. It will and has helped them get more fans for tbe concerts. You strike while the iron is hot.
Have the Forvesist come out from this last year some of their concert earnings from last year will be on this one this year. Forbes only goes to or through June. So the earning for tbe concert coming up and album wont be on this 2018/ 2019 one but 2020 one.
Kc last couple years started judging on the Voice and she getting a talk show
But about 3 years back Adam did top both CU and KC. Of course according what they do and how it falls for that year it will always vary who tops who.
Sure KC will do good money wise with judging and talk show. Is it really a competition earnings vary. I just said that to prove and it was true Adam earnings are very healthy.
I to hope he gets his valuables back they did recover quite a bit. Correction that was is Fotbes out yet for last year obviously I messed that up.
Mirela I also understand how you feel it hurts you that they say those things and I stopped reading that mess. Tbey are hurting no one but one person that's MM and it's not fair to him. He himself has said very complimentary things Bout Adam.
Ooh I'm late for this party!!! My heart ached when I heard what Don Lemon was saying, it's true what he said and I truly believe with my heart that "talking, having a conversation" is the only way to resolve issues not using physical force like that poor boy who was thrown in the trash, so cruel, so very cruel. Using the correct words not words of hate or foul language. Don Lemon is correct in saying that Ellen did not speak for everyone, I felt the same way when I saw her tell Kevin about the phone call she made to the academy. Karma nipped Kevin's butt! I HAD and still HAVE gay cousins from my Moms AND Dads side of the family, and they bring their boyfriend or girlfriend to all family gatherings and it's no big deal to any of us. They're treated like anyone else. At the end WE ALL are the same, we eat and drink and poop (sorry to be yucky, lol) but it's true the SAME WAY!
As for the Golden Globes, it seemed like the longest 3 hours for us to find out if Rami and Bo Rhap were winners. But atlas they were. It seemed to me it wasn't a thunderous applause tho, and the camera man kept showing this one actor in particular and you know he was NOT HAPPY! I'm happy for Rami and Queen for the two awards, but this morning I read a review of the awards on how there were people who weren't happy, even tho Rami did an excellent job but found the movie underwhelming! This same Journalist from the article had the odassity to say "usually the winners of the Golden Globes don't win the Oscar! How dare him, I hope Rami and Bo Rhap will be nominated again and WIN AGAIN, to shut these critics, journalists trolling mouths! Because this man had said "there's still hope" that another movie would win. I'd like to punch all the Bo Rhap movie trolls faces.
Aaaaand to finish here, I DID see a blonde woman sitting next to Roger at the table, the only woman and the rest men. So I assume this was Rogers wife. Oh yeah I also heard that The Hollywood Foreign Press liked Bohemian Rhapsody before the GG awards, so it helped that it was chosen to be the winner for Best Drama! I'd like to "thank the Hollywood Foreign Press". Haha
Critics are mad bad reviews did not hurt them. Tbe movie made a fortune and people went to see it. Not all reviews bad.
It was a really good movie. Was it the best movie I've seen in 70 years no.but it was really good and deserved the awards. Of course I'm partial because Adam being with Queen. But it was very good. People are angry because TSIB tbey been pushing did not do as well as predicted. They may win more at other awards just have to wait and see.
I've never watched that whole show before last night. Only did because of BR being nominated. I believe the Oscar's being announce today. Have not heard yet.
I believe I said enough of everything on the matter sure all would agree. Got go do stuff. Everything fine in QAL land is fact it's great. So let people talk smack it's not getting them any where at all.
Sue Smith, Martel has made a new tribute band (The Ultimate Queen Celebration) and has many concerts already sold out in 2019. As Anne Marie writes, I think this generates a conflic between Q + AL concerts and Martel and especially between their fans. As long as Brian and Roger can still play live I do not see why they need this imitator. Lately I've seen a lot of shows where Martel is invited and praised. More than Adam.
Martel also made an album with Queen covers, Thunderbolt & Lightning on 26 october 2018. Queen never made an album with Adam. It seems to me unfair that you can not buy a Q + AL record but there is an immitator's album with Queen songs.
Anne Marie I was on the BH movie just to see Adam for a few seconds. I did not like the movie.As you, I can not hear someone else sing the Queen songs other than Adam. Not even Freddie, and I was his fan, but now I adore Adam.
MiReLa .. I know how you feel about the Martel trolls on ADAM videos on Ytube!! I answer some of the comments but the offensive ones get reported .. nonstop!! I will not tolerate the filthy things they say about ADAM .. I'm sick of ignoring them ... now I'm like @slynnckitty(?) on Ytube .. I list all of the wonderful things about ADAM including quotes from Brian & Roger!! Then I just don't answer back so they can't argue with me!!
As for Martel .. I watched some of his videos on Ytube .. he only sounds like Freddie & not that much .. IMO!! He does not in any way look, act or dress like Freddie!! I do not like imitators or impersonators ... they leave me cold!! ADAM neither tries to imitate or impersonate Freddie out of respect & love for him!! Martel is just using Freddie's way of singing to win over his fans who are still mourning his loss & by doing so is turning some of the "Queenies" against Brian & Roger as well as ADAM!!
The entertainment world is brutal & only the strong artists survive!! See you on Ytube Glam Sister!!

Lam-My
Mirela when did Sunflower say she did not like the movie. She said the critics were saying stuff about BR she wanted to bunch them out.
Of course he has his own tribute band he not working for them anymore from all I've heard. He has to.
What shows was he on that they were trashing Adam on the show.
I've watched many shows never seen him PERFORM on any of them. Getting on a show pushing a concert is different than performing. If any of those people or hosts on the show were trashing Adam they have never seen QAL.
Is MM playing arenas like QAL and they have played stadiums. Some or already sold put for 2019 well 2019tickets for QAL I'm sure are sold out except for some that scalpers have put the price several times over I expect some of those also have sold and will if none other available.
Did MM sale out M Square Gardens in a few hours and put in the second show both in LA and MSG in New York.
Correction that was punch him out.
I honestly am not worried about any thing with QAL. They have gotten many young and new fans through tbe movie.
MM has people who want to hang on to the past. Some of those people going to those concerts go to QAL to.
I said I understand how you and Anne Marie feel. I like you and I was just saying why listen to all that. It really is not hurting QAL who I feel is doing it on bigger scale and who are real deal and not impersonator copy cats.
I dont care what anyone says any one with ears knows Adam not an impersonator and is a famous performer an extremely strong singer Bd performer.
If people prefer MM tben they can go see MM. If people want to see an original show that does not have a frontman that a cheap impersonator that cant put on a show of his own go see MM.
Adam whole career is not QAL he does many other things and has new music coming out this year. I know nothing about album with MM was that recently.
Adam has said he does not see how they can out do what Queen has already done.
I dint bive he is keen on doing one.
Like I said I like you Mirela I still dont see any point in arguing with a bunch of nasty trolling people. I've certainly done it and it made be sick so dont do it any more. They are going to say their trash no matter what and still say it not hurting QAL. Correction Adam is a fabulous performer and a hell of a singer.
I already said I like the movie enjoyed it. It was a good movie. But not the best I've ever seen. I'm glad it won the awards mainly because of QAL. It certainly will help future concerts. Beyond this year.
That was correction above if people want to see a show that does not have a impersonator and has a frontman that is a famous singer go see QAL. I said MM that was a mistake.
I signed in as Sue Smith but I have ask all to call me Sue most do. Just seems like when people get mad at me they call me Sue Smith not Sue.
Mirela I understand how you and Lambert Outlaw and myself feel about Adam I adore him. It hurts me greatly to hear that crap from thos MM people and even one or two who have said things about Adam on here.
BUT mM have an agenda and I dont want to play into it. Because MM is never going to be a frontman for Queen I've not been any surer of anything in my life. I do not say that lightly. Again I said fabulous singer not famous phone keeps changing it. Have a nice night.
Thank you Lam-My for post.
You're welcome Sue! Wah, sooo much energy whenever you fend for Adam. Good for the brain cells, slows down degeneration...that applies to me too! 🧠😊
Also I agree MM does not look a thing like FM. He has little fashion sense as FM and Adam both have. Sorry but Adam is a babe. I think he sounds some like FM but not all that close. Adam sounds like Adam thank God. That is fashion sense that FM had. Hope someone post another post of Adam soon. I'm on this site for Adam not MM or FM.
Thank you Lam-my you know how I feel about him and that will never change.
I know most all on here feel the same. That's why they get upset when he unfairly talked about. You cant blame them. But I think Adam is doing just fine as well as Queen.
I Think as many has said here it will be a very good year for Adam.
Oh my goodness, all this nastiness about Marc Martel is not warranted. Roger and Brian decided they wanted an official tribute band because they were sick of all the unofficial tribute bands, and therefore invited all those around the world who were interested to audition. Apparently, Marc Martel's voice has always sounded like Freddie's voice but he said he wasn't aware of that until people told him. He's been a singer most of his life & had a Christian band. Anyway, he auditioned for the Queen Extravaganza band and was successful at gaining the position of lead singer. He toured with Queen Extravaganza for a number of years and then put together his own Queen tribute band. Apparently, the timing of both tours coincided so a new singer was needed for Queen Extravaganza. I would've gone to hear the new lead singer of Queen Extravaganza but I listened to him sing on YouTube and wasn't keen on his voice. I have been to a concert when Marcus was leader singer of the Queen Extravaganza band and then a concert where his own band performed. All I will say is that he's not a "cheap impersonator", he's a singer in his own right. If there are Queen fans who prefer him to Adam, so be it. Not everyone likes the same singer/s.
Marc continues to sing and record Christian songs so he's not a one trick pony.
I'm thrilled the "Bohemian Rhapsody" film has done so well & that both the movie and Rami Malek won their respective Golden Globe awards. Rami previously won an Emmy Award for his role in "Mr Robot" so hopefully, his success will continue. Brian called him "King Rami" on Instagram, and Rami and Lucy Boynton (who plays Mary, Freddie's girlfriend in the movie) are now dating. It's a time to be happy, as all those are who were involved in the production of this movie.
I think there is only nastiness of any kind because of MM fans. Most Queen fans who have actually gone to QAL say they were blown away by Adam.
You should read some remarks on Adamtopia and it's not about MM.
I was told MM worked hard at sounding like FM. He given lessons on you tube how to sing like FM. He is an impersonator Adam has called him that.
Many have called him a cheap i.personator I never did before. But I did because I'm tired of hearing about it.
I said even MM complemented how good Adam was. His fans are way nastier than any of us and it's totally uncalled for. I'm glad he has his own music but his fans seems to mostly want to hear him to do FM. Adam does Adam always and he is amaizing.
Adam will have music out this year cant wait. Think it will be amaizing.
I was thrilled BR won and RM won I was screaming my head off. Thrilled because it will also help the QAL concert endeavors passed the summer ones. I was
Pretty darn happy screaming like a school girl.
From Brian M com Rami Malek and Adam Lambert are nominated for the Dorian awards.
Sue, over the years, Adam's fans have made some nasty comments about other artists too. Two wrongs don't make a right.
Also, if you're tired of hearing about Marc Martel, please don't comment about him because it's perpetuating negative comments which don't reflect well on Adam.
Rosemary White, the world is full of imitators and I do not think they have to be appreciated and encouraged. An artist has value when he comes up with something new when he has his own style. An imitator must only see it once as a curiosity in a entertainment show.
This Martel has generated an army of extremely violent fans. They constantly write on youtube that they hate Adam. They write that Adam is a garbage that should be assassinated.
They even want to initiate a petition signed by as many as possible to ask Brian and Roger to replace Adam with Martel.
You praised Adam or ever defended him on a site where there are aggressive posts against him by Martel's fans, as you took Martel's defense on this site dedicated to Adam?
Martel noticed he was more successful and earned more money by impersonating Freddie than singing his own music (he currently has 18 million dollars).He began to imitate even Freddie's gestures when he saw this attracting even more fans.
So glad Adam joined Brian and Roger for a meal after the awards(, think it was after anyway ! )Looked like a more relaxed atmosphere,and on the above comments, there is only one Freddie and only one Adam both incredible talented men.
haven't seen Marc Martel, but I'm sure he's good at what he does also, social media will always have trolls that's just unfortunately how it is
MIRela, I didn't bring Marc Martel's name on to this thread - this is Adam's blog; however, I greatly dislike nasty remarks made about another artist no matter who it is. This blog is available for everyone in the world with access to a computer, to read if they want to and it doesn't reflect well on Adam if/when his own fans are making nasty comments about other artists. Adam has said himself that he doesn't like unkind remarks being made about other artists and I think we should respect his wishes.
Rosemary White I have never seen Adam's fans use such aggressive language and want someone's death like Martel's fans I wrote about Martel just because I found on YouTube a lot of insulting comments and nasty remarks about Adam and about Brian and Roger posted by Martel's fans. Do we really have to allow Martel's fans to offend Adam and threaten him without protesting in any way?
Variety : "On the day Elvis Presley would have turned 84, NBC is marking the occasion by announcing performers for its “Elvis All-Star Tribute,” which will air on February 17 from 9-11 p.m. (ET/PT)".

I don't think Adam cares one bit about the comments made by Marc's fans. I don't think Adam seeks out that info nor pays any attention to it. Fan hate is juvenile and embarrassing. I choose not to get involved. I've been to junior high and I don't want to go back.
Adam didn't win the Dorian Award. Billy Porter won.

Nice picture of Brian and Adam!
I thought the Dorian awards were on the 12th of January. I was afraid he win it because I believe he sang it in TV movie or something. Cant see how anyone could top that performance of Adam.
But awards shows or award shows. He got plenty of love for it.
Rose Mary White every person on here has the right to Express their feelings about what bothering them. But this site is for Adam. To back him and see all about Adam. Unfortunately that has not always been the case. However the people posting here today and the majority of people who come on here really care about Adam.
It us human nature to take up for who you care about. However I have seen way more nastiness from MM fans than Adam fans. I also do agree it's best to not get in arguments with nasty fans. However like I said human nature is to protect who you care about.
Correction it is human nature. I'm not on here to get into arguments been there done that it is not worth it.
You have your opinion and others on this site have theirs. If I agree or I dont agree I know how much the people on these posts here today and yesterday
Care about Adam.
That was an accident I split that sentence in the post above.
The Dorian awards were suppose to be on January 12th. I did not know if it was televised or not. So if it was early does that mean it is televised? I did not think it was but why would it be early other wise.
Aha, Adam might have read my Raven vampire *blackbird story / Christmas Day... caw caw !
@AdamLambert on Instagram Stories:Yup. Blackbird singing in the Dead of the Night...

(Bird of Paradise)
Christmas story:
Pharaohboy keeps staring out from the balcony waiting for Santa.
Daddy, something is moving outside.
What?
A raven on a branch.
That's okay.
More ravens join in, then all of a sudden, an exceptionally large one flies down from its perch and lands on Pharaoh's head.
Hi Pharaoh! Do you remember me?
No! But I do recall a *blackbird in my house sometime ago.
Yes, you got it...that was me.
Hi! Glampire Adam! Long time no see, how is the going, have you found a new substitute lover.
Raven transforms...
Glampire slips into a trans-like state. Raven, a handsome young vampire smiles, extends his fangs, makes his surreptitious advances.
Pharaoh's eyes glow out of jealousy...as he never likes anyone encroaching on his Daddy. Leaps into the air...springs an attack on Raven to halt his advances using its hing-sun kungfu.
Daddy Adam snaps out of his trans-daze:
Phara! What's wrong buddy? Why are you snarling? Are you okay?
At this moment, a *blackbird flies off the balcony and Pharaoh jumps onto his Daddy...licks his face profusely.
Don't worry Phara, I'll be home with you...not leaving anytime soon; need to tie up the loose ends to my Album 4.
Ding Dong!
Be careful Daddy...Raven may be back for siphoning...despicable!
Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!
Pharaoh's antenna ears twitch ecstatically...jumps up and down wagging its tail to welcome Santa passing by Runyon Canyon in his flying chariot pulled by reindeer all the way from the North pole. He rummages his Santa bag and hands a little gift to Daddy Adam and lo and behold...a freshly-grilled chunk of lamb-chop to Pharaoh on a silver platter!
Slurp slurp! Pharaoh gets his Christmas gift...it is worth the wait. Oooeeeh!

Like I said in my earlier post .. when I run across an unkind (that's a mild term) remark about ADAM on Ytube posted beneath his video .. I simply counter with something positive about him ... and I have a lot of ammunition in that department .. looks, talent, humility, humanity, etc. I could go on & on!! I very seldom say anything against the other artist even if it is the truth .. I simply state my case & move on. However, some of the remarks made against me personally for being an avid Glambert are far from filtered .. I've been called a "glitter cow, homo lover, stupid old bi*ch, deaf" .. all because I support ADAM!!
So I've taken to only reading the complimentary comments & thumbs down the unkind post .. that gives me the satisfaction I need!! Then I put the video on auto replay for two or three days to up the views in retaliation!! Simple ... even though I am troubled by the fact that I can't come here to 24/7 to speak my mind without having to defend my opinion ... so in light of that I will no longer be voicing my opinion here or anywhere else where I'll have to defend it!! From now on it's only to leave links or news that I find from other sites!!
This will be my final say on anything else!! I'm too old for this & I refuse to be a part of it anymore!! I stand by my conviction .. I am a LAMBERT fan & I'm PROUD to be a GLAMBERT!!
tess4ADAM(LAMBERT Outlaw)
Lambert Outlaw....Not sure what might have offended you. I scanned over the comments above, and guess I missed something. However, I'm sure whatever anyone said to upset you was inadvertent. Certainly your opinions have always been valued by me. We are Glamberts....all!
LAMBERT Outlaw you do you we can all have opinions but no one has the right to tell you what to do. I've fought many a fight for Adam. If it the right or wrong thing to do, you have to do what you feel is tbe right thing.
It is unfortunate that some Martel fans dont know the difference between supporting Martel and just plain trolling. But when it comes to threatening Adam that should all be reported maybe to more than the blog police on the internet.
Dont know why the wide space except I erased some of my comment. If that did it. Has done this before.
Perhaps it is appropriate here to quote Marc Martel's OWN remark regarding Adam Lambert fronting Queen....as given in an interview to USA TODAY in 2014.....when he was questioned about the internet skirmishes between fans of the two singers.
"In my opinion, Queen has the current best male singer in the world singing for them", Martel says of Lambert. "I went to see their show in New York, and the dude does not strain or miss a single note. He's an incredible virtuoso."
That says it all, IMO. I suspect Mark is embarassed by those nasty trolls among his fans.
Nanbert I did say Martel has complemented Adam. These fans are embarrassing and they are just plain trolls now even if they are fans or people just using M as an excuse to trash Adam because they are trolling.
I guess it is unfair to take it out on MM for how embarrassing and ridiculous his so called fans act. Tbey have just made trolls of themselves.
When I see a comment section has a really large amount of comments on a video I try to avoid the comment section because you know there will be lovely comments from Queenberts and Adam fans but then the M trolls will show up with their BS.
That's all it is, is BS. Brian and Rodger are over the moon happy with Adam. I know how hard it is not to want to back Adam from all that nonsense. Lime I said you just have to do what you think is right. I just try and avoid the comment section now because they are not hurting Adam's career on tbe other hand it looks bad for MM.
Correction that was like I said.
Adam says he never looks at comments sections. I'll bet anything that Brian and Roger don't look at them either. If they can ignore all the fan lunacy, I decided that I can, too.
Well said, Dee R Gee....a good rule of thumb!
Sue, put the cursor after the last sentence of your comment, tap on the Delete Key several times and and the extra space will be reduced, back to normal...you can see it.
Out of curiosity, I looked up raven verses blackbird (above story)...they belong to different species...both black, some different characteristics, tail, beak; blackbird generally smaller than raven...caw caw! 🌽🦅🌳
So Adam's IG...more like Bird of Paradise 🐦
Thank you Lam-My it's happened to me several times. That long space in between posts.
Adam has commented on a couple of rude people on Instagram. Told one man to keep his reviews to himself and another
I believe it was the same post.
I rarely any more go Instagram any more. I believe Adam does read some of his Instagram posts. Nothing wrong with that. Most of the time they are alot of Adam love but there is always those few. Tbere was one that use to post on here who was BAD.
Adam has rarely commented that I've seen but be has commented.
I doubt he ever goes on YT comment sections. Doubt he wants to spoil a day with that mess. So you see even Adam is human. It is a good rule of thumb but
People being human, very good people dont always do what's best. Especially when they have cared so much for Adam
And had his back for years.
I'm not here to comment just to let you all know that I went to BG Fashion poll today to vote & a heck of a time doing it so I gave up & will try again on another day ... is anyone else being questioned about being a robot & when you indicate that you are not .. the vote is abandoned?? Also that actor from Turkey & another guy are ahead of ADAM on the poll .. wonder what is happening again!! This started happening the last time the guy from Turkey was in the lead & was disqualified for some reason & removed ... now it's happening again!! I'm going to keep voting as often as I can but I hope it's not the same thing all over again!! I'll keep you all posted ... Go!! Glamberts!!

Lambert Outlaw thinks Adam won in December and is now voting for January. It's time for Adam to recover and get first. I voted!
I voted too. Adam is currently third, but we Glamberts can rectify that before the end of the month....just as long as we all VOTE!
Thanks for the reminder, Lambert Outlaw. Your monthly reminder is VERY helpful.
Thank you LAMBERT Outlaw I will vote.
I appreiate all reminders from.both yourself and Mirela.
Just a comment I am not here to argue. Sometimes we differ on opinions but that's all it is an opinion
Every person should do what they think is right. That's all I'm saying on this matter.
I tried several different times to bring up BG fastion poll. Cant seem to bring that poll up by Google.
