After a very busy month of July which featured 11 concerts (5 with Queen and 6 solo – including the epic Fantasy Springs event pictured above), August begins with a short period of rest for Adam. However, as he tweeted a couple of days ago, we can expect the third single from Trespassing to be announced sometime early this month. Later in the month, Adam will head to Japan and Australia for album promo and a few concerts as well. We are also anxiously waiting to learn if Adam will be a judge or have some other regular role in the upcoming season of American Idol. In the meantime, enjoy the chat!

    Mils, I’ll surely watch those Freddie interviews, when I stop feeling this dull! I just can’t concentrate on anything right now…

  2. luval says:

    mils…I still want to look at the Freddie interviews but last night was crazy when Adam tweeted

    Adam Lambert ‏@adamlambert

    Oh and FYI- that Japanese quote was WAY lost in translation.

    So I never got around to it. Will try today.

  3. luval says:

    hahaha someone on twitter is asking “how can we put that tattoo on a necklace?” Good question!

  4. turquoisewaters says:

    I don’t quite get this picture. http://news24.jp/entertainment/news/pictures/photo1_24088.jpg Is it just a collage? Why the German flag, woman wearing a medal, Adam’s star shirt?
    I do like the oofta (actually of Norwegian origin if I remember correctly). This relationship will always have a place in his heart, even if it should end some day. The new tattoo looks good, but how will I see that freckled forearm if he keeps putting more stuff? Good grief, he is a handful. I don’t know how his mom still looks that young.

    Turquoise, I can’t open that link.

    Hey, I’ve been playing with google translate, and can’t make heads or tails of the tat. Hope he got it right.

  6. turquoisewaters says:

    It is the same one nkd posted above. Maybe the link works better now that I inserted a blank between the link and the next word.

  7. TLKC says:

    I think Randy is a better bet for Jimmy’s position. There was a rumour about Jimmy and Randy trading places a while ago. A friend tells me that Jimmy is not a likely judge, though, because he requires a lot of takes just to get the little that he says right every week. So maybe he is going.

    Pharrell has a fair bit of experience in production with other singers and a good track record. He would bring a completely different sensibility to the Idol performances. I can see him in that slot.

    A little videotape message from Adam to Japanese fans. Adam and the band are going to be yellow+black in Summer Sonic… Adam looking cute on the vid Smile

  9. Miss Chaos says:

    Boy MJ must be turning in to a Glambert these days and lovin Adam, the thread on his visit to Japan has turned into a long and nice discussion, with only a couple negative posts. Now her headline thread with all the idols in it, and she puts a picture of Adam from PLL in the top of the thread, and you have to scroll down to find the little bit of story. Whats this world coming to??? ROTFL

  10. adamized says:

    Oh oofta, I made a booboo. I guess the origin is Scandinavian, not really Finnish. Oh well, I guess this 29 year old brain can only remember bits and pieces of stories from months ago. The meaning is right though.

    Adam did look cute in the vid but I think black hair is still my favorite.

    Luval, thanks for the Japan time info.

  11. milwlovesadam says:

    Miss Chaos, to quote a lyric from one of my favorite musicals, Cabaret :

    “Money makes ze world go around, ze world go around, money makes ze world go around, it makes the world go roooound. A mark a yen a buck or a pound, it makes ze world go round…”

  12. glambotgram says:

    Boy MJ must be turning in to a Glambert these days and lovin Adam,

    Just loving the hits Adam posts get her.

    mils I watched some of Freddie last night. I found him to be really uncomfortable, the smoking was very distracting. Adam is so much more articulate in interviews.

    New tattoo is way too big. I like the sentiment and the font but it could have been expressed much smaller. I don’t mind the oofta on the hand at all. But I do not like the whole forearm being covered.

    I think the nicey nicey radio station Adam was too much for him and he is rebelling, hair, make-up, new tat or tats(the rest of the band is going together when they get there) I don’t know if Adam will go with them also or he might even get a new one with Sauli.

    RE the crays on twitter I started reading a feed yesterday where a couple of women were discussing that they were done, that poor Tommy was soo hurt when Adam told Sauli he loved him at FS and a bunch of other crap. Is this the person that Adam blocked? I am so naive, I did not know that was going on. I knew there was fanfic but not all out delusion regarding Adommy, at least not to this level. Frown Adam is being kind just to call it sad.

  13. luval says:

    I think the tat is very vampire-ish and Gothic looking! I like it. But as they say about all tattoos…will you like it 20 years? He still should like the sentiment, though.

  14. Calgary says:

    mils As a matter of fact, I went on a late-night Queen/Freddie surfing expedition last week and saw that video and a couple of others. I found some of the info really interesting, like the bit about David Bowie, and the band’s relationships. I found Freddie quite hyper, intense, and a bit arrogant as time went on – or perhaps I should say there seemed to be a much sharper edge to his attitude. I find Adam much more engaging to listen to. He claims to be intense, but if he is he defuses it with his sense of humour, which is more up front than Freddie’s. Freddie certainly came across as someone who knew exactly who he was and what he wanted to do musically. It’s always fascinating and exciting to me to see and hear artists who are so confident in their expression of their art. As for the arrogance, who knows what Adam will be like after 10 years in the spotlight, after the novelty has worn off…although I think we all believe he’ll be the same lovely guy.

  15. Ron says:

    What a thoughtful and lovely comment from a thoughtful and lovely lady. Thank you Kradamour!

    I think my mother would be proud of me right now. Wink

    I just finished making the most perfectly shaped, wonderfully colored golden-brown stack of 8 pancakes that anyone has ever seen! Big Smile

    They should be on the cover of a cookbook.

    They’re so beautiful, it’s going to be a shame to eat them. Laugh

  16. luval says:

    Ron…mmmmmmmmmmmm Wink

  17. cwm says:

    Well, I can see that I was wrong in my ~theory last night about why Adam posted the Latin phrase!

    I really like the sentiment and the pretty font for his tattoo; I think it’s perfect for him. It’s a little too big for my tastes, though; I would prefer that it not take up quite so much of the forearm. But that’s minor. And it’s his arm, not mine, and if he’s happy, I’m happy. Smile

    And re: OOFTA – I like OOFTA! It’s small and kinda cool looking, it obviously has a private, cherished meaning between him and Sauli (Sauli has the same tattoo in the same location on his hand), and it’s in a spot where he can see if often and be reminded of what he and Sauli share. I think that’s really sweet.

    I can’t believe how much more accepting of tattoos I have become since I became an Adam fan. LOL! But I also know several lovely people in my real life who have gotten tattoos as a means of body art or self-expression or to mark an important event, and I understand it now.

  18. josephine says:

    KRADAMOUR–my thoughts and deepest feelings are with you and your son as I can remember so well when my son was deployed to the Gulf War to my surprise and sorrow–but all my pain turned to joy when he returned safely and well..I lived through one day at a time so be strong—Best wishes—

  19. josephine says:

    And I love Adams new tattoo–it speaks so much of him!!!! Yes ROTFL Kiss Cool

  20. turquoisewaters says:

    kradamour: I want to add my best wishes for your son’s safe return.

  21. nkd says:

    Kradamour, love and hugs! Kiss

    Your son will remain in my prayers until he is home safely.

    Have a safe trip home and fun with Froggie!

  22. nkd says:

    Here is a site with Latin sayings. Adam’s is listed there, I too hope it is correct.
    http://latinsayings.info/LatSayings2.php

  23. nkd says:

    Wow Ron a perfect stack of pancakes?!!
    Did you take a picture?
    I am the worst at pancakes, so I make waffles!

  24. luval says:

    nkd, I examined the tattoo letter by letter with that site you posted. whew! looks OK!

    If anyone is interested in live Olympic closing ceremony, here is the site:

    http://tvpc.com/Channel.php?ChannelID=3

    One Direction just lip-synched lol

    Brian May has requested no commentary during their set.

  25. nkd says:

    I can’t believe how much more accepting of tattoos I have become since I became an Adam fan.

    cwm, same here!

    I would see many people with tattoos and piercings while doing facials. Some you would never suspect would have them until their upper chest, back and arms are exposed. Butterflies, vines, flowers, birds, a pair of penguins and many other things. Some of the piercings were difficult to massage around, sometimes I would ask about them and I learned things! Wink

  26. nkd says:

    Thank you luval for the link. Did I miss anything besides 1D?
    I can live without seeing them!

  27. luval says:

    I tuned in 17 minutes late and Pet Shop Boys sang, Not sure who before them I missed. Ray Davies was on just before the woman on now. Am I supposed to know who she is?

    Oh, It was Emilie Sande! (huh?)

  28. LadyNorth says:

    Luval, you didn’t miss much, I don’t even remember the names except Pet shop boys and 1D. The beginning was a bit chaotic, song here another there, dancing and music at the same time on moving vehicles. Emely Sande in Kermit-frog-green -outfit was first performance I really concentrated.

    Action please, before my night falls! I want Queen…

  29. renataademelo says:

    So happy for the closing ceremony at the Olimpics. A little bit of Brazil will be in it! Rio2016!

  30. luval says:

    Besides Queen I want to see the Spice Girls. I have a feeling it’s going to be quite a while!

  31. little dutchess says:

    Hello all-

    Here I am catching up again and finally finished. So enjoyed all the discourse during the last 17 or so pages!

    The Duke and I are still not totally over whatever whalloped us in the UK. “Comin alive” but SLOWLY! Actually went to work for one day this past week. So can only hope whatever’s laid you low- NKD- is not quite so virulent…maybe a less potent US version! Get back on track soon!

    Happy Birthday to all those in August…lost track as I read through the blog but you know who you all are! May all your days be great!

    Jlurksacto — would love one of the Kiev DVDs when you make them. Am still behind on the London vids because my hearing is still not quite right and the sound always seems off. Will catch up when I can really appreciate how fabulous Adam was. Can’t wait!

    Am in the camp that “thinks” the September job is something on Idol. Really hope so; it would be wonderful to see him on TV as articulate and gorgeous as hell every week and it would have to give him the boost he needs. Hey, it put JLo back on the charts (and we know our boy has way more talent and charisma)

    Happier with black hair but tolerating the silver fairly well for now. Much better than the brassy look we first saw.

    Well, those are all the opinions I have for the moment…so until next time…..

  32. luval says:

    little dutchess…nice to see you again. Does the Duke wear the WB tie or is it just hanging in the closet? LOL!

  33. nkd says:

    Imagine…a perfect song for the Olympics!

    I love George Michael. I can’t believe the smile that came on my face when he came on. I am in the camp of “NEED music in my life”!

    little dutchess, it’s good to hear from you.
    I don’t know what I’ve had but it’s been wicked!
    I’m glad to hear you and the duke are coming alive!

  34. luval says:

    I’ll watch the British music later on my big tv! Love George Michael! Sounds good!

    Hope he does “I Want Your Sex”. Smile

  35. rs says:

    Bowie’s song, but no Bowie (so far). Too bad.

  36. luval says:

    Bowie’s voice & music give me the chills. Was hoping he’d pop out from behind one of those curtains. Am constantly upset he has not reached out to Adam that we know of. Of course, he has his reasons.

  37. luval says:

    Adamized…here is the chrome/ash/platinum moving around. I miss the dark hair!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErWPiK2HD68

  38. dcglam says:

    I miss the dark hair!

    Me too, luval, me too! I feel that the dark hair makes Adam’s look so distinguished and striking, and the light hair not so much.

  39. luval says:

    I really hope the white hair is just a base to be used with adornments & color for the Japanese shows & possible Cuckoo video. Then back to dark!!!!

  40. rs says:

    Just saw Queen. I am so glad that Brian got a solo of his own. Jessie J has quite a voice, but it didn’t do justice to the song. She just semed to be doing her thing. And of course I couldn’t help remembering what I witnessed exactly a month ago (and listen to every day). I kept looking for chemistry between Brian and Jessie or some of the joy that I saw in Hammersmith and it just wasn’t there.

  41. luval says:

    Awww, hell…that should be Adam up there. Frown

  42. nkd says:

    My guess is he keeps the color for a while. I like it! It still looks like Adam just a little frosty!

  43. luval says:

    Frosty Adam & Frothy Brian…haha

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztQOjl-5m8o

    eta: this is a short video again of Adam…Sings a slower Trespassing!

  44. adamized says:

    hah nkd frosty is right. Thanks for the vid luval. I’m not good with change so it still isn’t totally my cup of tea. Hopefully it is just something he wanted to try and maybe it will be a better look for his new video???

    Little Duchess glad your health is returning to normal. That must have been some awful bug.

    I am hopeful that something wonderful is happening in Sept for our BB.

    I would love Adam to have his very own variety show in the tradition of Sunny and Cher. It would be perfect. Adam would get to showcase his own talent every week and at the same time have fun and talented musical guests. If I’m going to dream, might as well dream big.

    BTW, my twitter feed is full of love for Adam and Queen and not so much love for Queen and JJ right now.

  45. glambotgram says:

    Here is another part of the same show with Adam

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErWPiK2HD68

    LOL the winner has on an Adam shirt.

  46. ultimathule says:

    “Adam Lambert’s collective fans are probably crossing the English Channel with bayonets right now.” – Popdust- lol

  47. glambotgram says:

    ulti LOL so true!!

  48. luval says:

    Did I hear ADAM ADAM ADAM ADAM ADAM!!!!! in the stadium? No, just kidding.

  49. HK fan says:

    I really like the new tattoo, the meaning and the font, agree with I just wish it was smaller.
    Love the hair in the videos. I prefer the black with highlights, but I can certainly live with the silver for a while.

    this is a nice tweet to Adam
