Welcome to 2026! Although 2025 ended rather quietly for Adam and his fans, 2025 was a year to remember. Adam returned to his musical roots to perform two of his dream roles. He did not release any new music or take the stage with Queen but there were hints that those might happen this year. Anyone up for a trip to Las Vegas?! What else is in store? Adam always is up to something. We just need to be patient and good things will come…

Enjoy the chat!

    Adam Lambert, unsurprisingly slayed his masterclass vocal on his in-the-round performance of“Can’t LetGo”(which Marx had revealed was his favorite Carey composition, even warbling a few impromptu lines)

    Adam Lambert used his mighty pipes to sing Mariah Carey’s”Can’t LetGo”.Standing on the smaller,rotating stage in the middle of the room,Lambert showcased how even with his irrepressible flair,his pure voice is the star/he climbed through escalating octaves

    I have a relative that says he wears a wig because how can he dye it back & forth so much without losing his hair. There’s no convincing them he doesn’t.

    Had to post this it’s exactly like me. Whenever Adam is on I’m just dancing and singing like the happiest, most dramatic little diva you’ve ever met! You’ve taught me well.
    To think, I used to play music quietly and sit perfectly still!

    Off topic but this is a great interview with Don Henley of The Eagles. He talks about playing at the Sphere & other things. QAL should listen to this.

    If I’m being honest I didn’t care for the Bad Bunny half time show. I didn’t find it musically pleasing. I’ve heard him before but this seemed different…like trying too hard.

  49. riskylady says:

    Lol, I didn’t watch it, but have heard clips of him singing and his Spanish is atrocious, literally unintelligible. But kudos for putting it out there.

  50. luval says:

    Been reevaluating the BB performance. Music is not for me but the messages regarding everything he was portraying were outstanding. Seems like the biggest criticism online was that there should have been subtitles. I agree. But the praise way outnumbered the dislike 90-10%.

    Some of the things were interesting. All the green foliage near the stage (and there was lots of it) were actually people wearing costumes. I never would have guessed.
