Great find - yes a BEAUTIFUL voice - and ironically this was brought to us by a Clay fan! So they don't all hate Adam.

If anyone else is pissed about this slandererous pile of crap "journalism" on MSNBC please write to Denise Hazlick - Head of Entertainment at MSNBC.com denisehazlick@msnbc.com and demanded an apolgy plus a retraction on the MSNBC Home Page for this character assasination. She needs to have her mailbox explode.

ummm no... celebrities get shit like this said about them ALL THE TIME! so what. Adam will prove himself over time and one blurb isn't going to turn people off but his fans acting like total nutso shitheads will.

anyway... as any good fantard should know, there is a youtube video of Adam covering Five for Fightings "I just love you" well if you ever wondered where and why that cover took place here is the scoop....

(05/27/2009) - icenetwork.com's intrepid reporters Sarah S. Brannen and Drew Meekins spend some time talking about American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert's ties to the figure skating universe, gelato and a Skating Club of Boston outing to Milan.

Wicked Adam
We were glued to the finale of American Idol, along with the rest of the country and most of the skating world. As it happens, Drew met runner-up Adam Lambert in Los Angeles last year; Adam and Drew are both friends with retired skater Nicholas LaRoche. We got the whole story from Nick this week.

"I met Adam when he was performing in Wicked with my partner Eric," Nick told us. "He was in the ensemble, and he was also the understudy for Fiyero [the prince]. Eric was also in the ensemble."

Wicked ran at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood for two years, and Nick, Eric and Adam became good friends. In the 2007-08 season, Nick was looking for music for a new exhibition program.

"I heard the song 'I Just Love You' by Five for Fighting on the radio, but didn't necessarily like the arrangement of it," he said. "I teamed up with Adam and the music conductor from Wicked, Brian Perry, who played the piano. We went into a private studio and recorded it. They only did the song three full times; it was amazing. Adam was thrilled when I asked him to record the song and it was so much fun to stand in the recording studio with the headphones on and listen to his wide range. I heard the 'belts and screams' first-hand. It was incredible!"

Nick has performed the program twice, and Adam came to one of the shows to see it.

"After seeing the performance, he couldn't thank me enough for giving him the opportunity to do this," said Nick.

So what is the glam rocker like in person?

"He is great -- very humble," said Nick. "I watched him do endless performances here in L.A., all for charities and benefits."


Nick watched every episode of American Idol, of course.

"It was odd to see him without his fun makeup on and the glam look he carries," said Nick. "When he would come out each week and be so conservative, it was weird. I'm used to seeing him in the glam stage like he was in the finale, when he had the crystals around his eyes, extravagant clothing, and belting those high notes that you would never think would come out of his mouth."

Because Nick is in Los Angeles, he couldn't wait until the show aired to find out what happened. He had a cousin on the East Coast text him the final result.

"When my cousin told me Kris has won, my initial reaction was 'I will NEVER watch Idol again!' Then I headed off to the gym," joked Nick.

"I don't know how this whole Idol thing works but I know Adam will be huge, and probably more so now than if he had won. I'm honored to have gotten to not only work with him on this exhibition piece, but to have seen him perform so many times."

Apart from the Idol excitement, Nick is busy coaching at the Toyota Sports Center in L.A., and getting ready to skate in a Los Angeles Ice Theater benefit show on June 12 in Burbank, Calif. Yes, he'll be performing to his exclusive, Adam Lambert version of "I Just Love You."



*there is video of the routine on the site too but you have to register to watch it... it's really cool if you like ice skating, which I do so I registered and watched it*

I love reading articles like this. Funniest line:
"It was odd to see him without his fun makeup on and the glam look he carries," said Nick. "When he would come out each week and be so conservative, it was weird.

When everyone was making such a big to do about edgy Adam - the ones that know him saw him as looking conservative! When I saw him sing Bo Rhap - I told my daughter "I think there's someone you're going to like." She looked at him and said - he looks goth. Funnily enough, I didn't really notice "the look" - frankly, I think he looks more normal than women who tatoos their entire arms.

the "source" named in the Adam bashing article is probably Sarver or Douchey.

And as far as what Adam said about Clay...Clay was rude as fuck in what he said about Adam.

What Clay said is true though and millions agree with him including Simon about that song. What Adam said came too late, it was said days after the apology, and not true. Clay continues to make headlines nearly every day without Madam's help.

Wow - you're not kidding about Clay making headlines all the time! Here's one from yesterday:
