Coincidence? It pretty much outlines how America is changing it's attitude about the legalization of marijuana and how many changes this administration has already made (towards de-criminalization) and how people on both sides of the aisle are on board with the changes (Why? reduction of violence, less dangerous than alcohol yet more available, overcrowding of prisons and lack of focus on rehabilitation, cash crop, etc.) I read the magazine in order and it really put Adam's statement in context (not that I cared about it anyway). Nose job? Nope. Watch Idolatry again. He looks a lot like his old photos in those videos. Plus, I have to add that my nose definitely thinned out and stopped taking over my face as I got older and lost that baby look -- hello cheekbones, normal nose, jaw line...and it took until college. Some of us aren't born gorgeous. ;) I received my Rolling Stone in the mail today and one of my favorite parts about it was that the article preceding Adam’s article was about the War on Drugs.

Since he starting singing at age 10, and the fact that he has had extensive training after age 10, he would have been told that any surgery on his nose would change his vocals. Billy Joel had his nose broken a couple of time before he became famous. He wanted to have surgery but was told he would change the way his voice sounded so he opted out. The same for Barbara Streisand. I really don’t think Adam had a nose job.

None of the stuff he said was particularly shocking to me, I hear things just as crude all day long in high school. Any parents who think they can shelter their children from bad language or crude sexual talk should spend a day in high school. As for his drug usage? Again, not shocking. Plenty of people experiment, and Adam's experiences sound pretty normal. Now just to be clear, I have not ever tried drugs nor have I had a drink in my life, but I still think Adam is a positive role model. He is so open and confident that its inspiring. I think everyone can relate to the feeling that they don't fit in, or that they're too different to ever feel normal or good about themselves. Adam is proof that anyone, even those who feel weird or different, can achieve success and eventually be comfortable with who they are.

Admittedly, I probably won't be buying Adam's album, but I really liked this article and the cover as well (it suits him). He's had an interesting life journey so far and he's honest and unfiltered about it. It's incredibly refreshing, and somewhat inspiring. This is who he is. People are going to take it or leave it, and that's totally okay with him. Being an artist is about self expression. If you can't be yourself, there's no point to it. Forgive me folks.

So that means if someone is a crappy singer, can play guitar and composes music should be taken seriously. Well, Celine, Streisand, Adam, and all you singers who have incredible voices should pack it is because you are not to be respected or relevant.

I really liked it. It's good to see that candid side of Adam, and I wasn't particularly shocked about any of it. Parts of him remind me so much of me (probably why I like him so much) - free spirit, very open, especially open about art and expression, etc. Though I must say I've yet to reach his level of being completely comfortable with everything about me. I love the summary on the first page about his natural "electricity" in person, infectiously sunny disposition, sense of humor. Those were always some of my favorite traits of his - the smile, the laugh. One of my biggest pet peeves is artists who take themselves too seriously, and I'm glad he never seems to do that. Life's too short to not just enjoy the ride - which it sounds like he's having a blast doing. Good for him! Finally got a chance to read the whole article. I really liked it.

Interview is terrific. Wish there were more photos from the photo shoot (hope they continue to publish more on the web-site over the course of the week). Clearly the writer was taken with him (as we all are). It is also fantastic that RS and other major publications (e.g. LA Time -- hooray for Ann Powers) have been so supportive of him. Adam is no dummy, he knows, in the words of Eminem "you only get one shot do not miss your chance ...this opportunity comes once in a lifetime" (or something like that) yay — got myself a copy of RS this am.

But, damn, if he did have a nose job, it's one of the best I've ever seen. Does anybody know if he did or didn't? Or can I just hope that my awkward teen will see his nose eventually slim down too? :mrgreen_wp: Adam may not have had a Bar Mitzvah, but based on those RS photos of him as a young kid, it appears he did go through that other rite of passage for a lot of Jewish kids: Rhinoplasty!

I think he is a very talented singer and performer and frankly that's all I care about. He said that he reserves the right to talk about his sexuality but he gave a lot of intimate details..more than we needed to know I think but maybe he also did it with his fans in mind and thought that this would give his fans more insight as to who he is as a person...my initial impression was really good, I really liked how the article began but then I think it digressed into some triviality..I understand the author/interviewee wanted to show his many facets (smart, humorous, flirtatious, earnest, etc) but they really have to describe the bit about his stop at the salon? That was just bad editing I think because they probably had more material they could have used idk...I think they were trying to reach a lot of ppl but focusing on what he said would have sufficed.

The video of the shoot show so many great ones. I love the ones with him in the white shirt with suspenders and the snake on his shoulder. Bummer. I’m very disappointed with the photos also.

Adam is one of a kind, and I so admire his courage and honesty. I'm very moved by his life story and his struggle to understand it all. I understand the profound loneliness that many gay people experience. I feel he described the drug experimentation during his dark days......and his description of the drunk bar filled days around cocaine using people seemed like a big ole negative to me. I feel he's seen the negatives of drugs. I so feel for him with all the pressures surrounding him. It must be intense. I am glad Adam has gotten to the place he's at now. He seems to have such a good head on his shoulders and I'm a huge fan. He would never be where he is if he had any drug issues at all. He's known to be one of the hardest workers out there. I don't think Adam, Allison or Kris know what musical direction their cd's will be about. I've heard every year about how this Idol or that is soooo clear about their musical direction, and every year their cd comes out and is different from expectations. It is always so irrelevant to judge them on that now. Not a single Idol cd has turned out to be what they said or what people expected. And that would be stifling if it did because how do they know right now. Right now before they are embarking on an incredible journey. This process they are about to enter is new. Major record company. Opportunity to work with very talented producers and songwriters. A lot of help. They will experience a lot of growth. It will be a process. None of them know what the end product will be. I'm excited to see what this growing time produces for all three. It's a very exciting time.

It was haunting and erotic and pulled you in just as his "Mad World" performance did. I almost felt as if I could smell his breath. It was a true piece of art. I'm glad they chose this instead of some cutesy photo. I loved the photo of Adam with his hands crossed in front of his face.
