December has arrived and that means that 2012 will soon be over. Adam has been “trespassing” all around the world lately and currently finds himself in China and will wrap up his 2012 with a New Years Eve concert in Bali. But before the year ends with a bang there is plenty to do on his home turf. He heads to NY for “Cyndi Lauper and Friends” and a TV appearance, then hops across country for a radio event and a little “Diva” hosting thang.
A lot of holiday cheer to look forward to!

Choosing a photo for the monthly threads is never easy. However, it’s his most recent look that is getting attention. Since it may not last long, I thought that most of you would enjoy the look from the Mnet Awards – fierce, defiant, always unpredictable Adam.

Enjoy the chat! Happy Holidays!

    LOL, this is a 1 minute video of Levine talking to Anderson Cooper about his one tattoo regret. Hope our Adam doesn’t have similar regrets.

    So I just discovered (yeah, I’m late to the party on this one) Karmin. So charming! and “created” by youtube. My other big crush Lindsey Stirling is also a creature of Youtube, they sponsored her tour after she gave them millions and millions of hits.
    So…maybe labels are becoming almost irrelevant. Put your music out there yourself and then get sponsors when you catch on. Very organic.

    Who is going to Cindy Lauper from ALL?
    Question

  4. TLKC says:

    I’m not one of them. Just cannot warm to Adam Levine. Are you getting excited luval? Gonna start packing shortly.

    Thanks for the explanation on the cock ring nkd. That whole conversation was over my head.

    As a follow-up to aely’s explanation of the difference between recording 19R and managment/publicity 19M: the most noticeable difference at the time of Adam’s departure was the disappearance of Lane but I still wonder if the delay on Trespassing’s release date and the way BTIKM was unceremoniously dumped out there just before Christmas was an indication of RCA’s pique. We’ll never know.

    RCA still gets merchandise $$ from Adam for anything related to the cd, e.g. the Vaporsky print and the boxed LP sets. Lee Cherry did the photography for the latter and I wouldn’t be surprised if Adam has an arrangement with him re: shared remuneration. Adam mentioned a while back that he had started a business with Lee.

    Another happy thought: Adam’s management looks after Katy Perry and she has talked about starting her own record label. She wasn’t happy that her label, EMI, was swallowed up by Universal last year.

    I like Maroon 5’s songs, but I don’t like Adam Levine, what little I’ve seen of him i.e The Voice, he just comes across as so up himself…

    Yes, HK, there is that!!!!!!!!

    Mark Gilroy Music‏@markgilroymusic

    @4Music Staggering to see that @adamlambert didn’t get a nomination for best pop vocal. “Trespassing” is the DEFINITION of best pop vocal!

    What a good sports!!! Class act!!! In Love

    Adam Lambert
    @adamlambert @JeffBhasker hey man congrats on your Grammy Nom! congrats on a great year!

  9. TLKC says:

    I don’t know who Mark Gilroy is but I like him!Adam is a class act all the way!!!

  10. Ceddies says:

    Kradamour, I was hearing Karmin for a while on some of the “what you want” XM radio programs before I finally heard them host a weekend countdown show. I kept trying to figure out who it was–sometimes sounding like Beyonce, sometimes like Nicki Minaj, sometimes like neither. I like most of their songs–at least for hearing them a few times. You probably hear quite a bit of it at your school, no?

    He is the guy who wanted to know who Adam was when he sang at the EMA’s and got over 200 hits

  12. firstimerob says:

    This is a very touching story.

  15. turquoisewaters says:

    Kradamour: Karmin was the first act at the Endfest in Sacramento this year. I was surprised how much I liked her. Came across as a very nice person, and she certainly can sing and perform live. She was working so hard up there, but unfortunately the audience was deader than dead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJXQkW6fhNM

  16. Kradamour says:

    You probably hear quite a bit of it at your school, no?

    Nope, Ceddies. Just rap and crap.

    That is interesting Turquoise. Karmin (actually, Karmin is two people) is playing here on Monday night very nearby, the same venue where Adam played for GN. No one will go with me so I am going to go alone, I think.
    On a “covers” topic, back a few pages peeps were talking about Hallelujah. My favorite version is Alexandra Burke.
    Two very different performances by her:

  17. milwlovesadam says:

    So. I’m probably going to be off the computer for a couple of days. I’m having a little surgery tomorrow morning, no big deal, but I’ll be a one-handed typist for a while.

    I’m sure you all can keep the fires burning in the meantime. And I look forward to catching up.

    Jeepers. By then he could be blonde again.

  18. asifclueless says:

    Thanks … firstimerob for that touching story video.

    Happy to hear “I JUST LOVE YOU” again. I had it on my iPod for 3 years and listened to it every night. Then I lost my ipod and haven’t loaded on my new ipod yet.

  19. turquoisewaters says:

    All my best wishes for your surgery, mils. You know we need both of your hands for those lists.

  20. asifclueless says:

    asif, thank you, love Adam’s voice on that song, just flawless. I had never read this writeup of how it came about.

  24. riskylady says:

    I think it was at KTUphoria back on May 20th in NJ that Adam met Karmin and they hit it off, tweeting and photos together. He really liked them. I looked at that thread, but poster, comments all gone, only the videos are there. But on Adam Lambert Events they are on the list of artists with him.

  25. riskylady says:

    TALCVids tweeted this, saying we shouldn’t block ads on YT videos…I know Adam’s vids have ads, so hope he’s raking it in, because he’s getting LOTS of views!!! Says that Psy prob earned $870k from Gangnam Style.

  26. leoblueeys says:

    In reply to dcglam, I think that is the only right thing that the grammys did was to not nominate the Biebs. All he does on stage is lip sync and walk around the stage trying to hold his pants up! I think Adam was snubbed though! I was mortified at the people nominated for grammys. Do we have a sales number for international sales for Adam? Does anyone know?

  27. Ceddies says:

    Mils, I always think of you each week when I watch Glee. I just watched tonight’s great episode. Hope you weren’t too busy tonight to catch it–although I know you could record it and watch later–just not the same to me for some reason. Here’s hoping for great results with your surgery. We will be thinking of you and looking forward to your return here!!!!!

  28. Ceddies says:

    Nope, Ceddies. Just rap and crap.

    Krad, when you get a spare couple of minutes, check out Karmin’s “I told you so” and “Too many fish in the sea”. Those two are pretty much hip-hop and lots of repetitive lyrics like young folks seem to like, that’s why I thought you prob hear this in your school (very akin to rap and crap, lol).

    I did not know that their initial popularity was thru YT, so I appreciate your posting that.

  29. Ceddies says:

    http://www.craveonline.com/music/articles/183049-25-biggest-grammy-snubs

    Sorry if this has been posted already. Seems that this may be just one of the lists for this category (depending on who is making the list I guess).

    I know we are trying to move on, but this just lets us know that there are many, many Great Ones that got left out. Adam is in good company in this case.

    And I’m starting to look like the post ho of the night, so I’m gone. See you guys later.

    OOps, forgot that I wanted to post this. Maybe not a kind thing to do since he got snubbed too. But, I found this yesterday and meant to post it. Again, he is wearing “Adam’s colors”. To be kind, though, maybe it’s because lots of pencils are yellow and black. MAYBE.

    nkd, at the 3.40 mark in this video, is that the “hot dog eating” guy from a recent video? Or just someone who resembles him?

    I don’t think that’s the same guy Ceddies, if you’re meaning the guy at the Hennessy event. Just some other bald dude enjoying Adam!

    Check it out. Based on worldwide sales and hopefully it is true.

    His photo is there. So it’s true?

  48. ultimathule says:

    We’ve never known his worldwide sales so this should be very interesting.
