Spoiler Update: Adam Lambert – One More For the Top 50!
Word has it that Adam Lambert, rumored American Idol Season 8 Hollywood contestant has advanced to the Top 50, according to Idol spoiler, Joesplace.
In January, he’ll be back in Los Angeles to find out if he advances to the Top 36 contestants who will go on to compete live on the show.
I’ve updated my list (she hasn’t updated hers yet, but I’m sure she will soon.)
Adam’s gender-bending-glam-rock-theater-boy-deal isn’t your typical Idol fare. Peeps are already buzzing about him. Mission accomplished, TPTB!
Adam has dismantled his MySpace (Hiatus? eta: The Top 50 contestants are required to remove their music pages in January), but there are still plenty of videos out on the internets of Adam performing in various theater productions around LA.
Check out his highly theatrical performance of Gnarles Barkley’s “Crazy”:
Entertaining, don’t you think? Simon will hate him! That’s why he must make the Top 36. Plus, he’s got a killer range. And, OMG Dust in the Wind!

There ya go! Perfect!
Some might want to be called Adam’s Adam’s. AA for short. :laugh_tb:
He’s too pretty. I hate him.
Awww c’mon Gwen. He is too pretty and so is his voice.
I am still hoping there will be someone to blow me away from Season 8.
LOL!
So am I. Seriously….
How bout Adam as the combination of the Top 3 from Season 7: David C, David A and Syesha?
I certainly think Adam can finally marry the diva thing that AI has been doing, with the finally out with a vengeance, instead of keeping it quietly, but unavoidably obvious (I’m looking at you, Clay). Sexuality has always played an unspoken element on the show – Adam would take that particular piece of clothing out of the closet and flaunt it. You go, girl!
Adam makes me think of a couple things. One, is that AI is hugely popular in the gay community and Adam would absolutely explode there, if he hasn’t already. And also, does anyone remember a recent David Cook interview where he mentioned about wanting to do concerts that really put on a show like the glam rock period? Hmmmm. I wonder, if Adam would give DC more wiggle room (so to speak) to let his own freak flag fly?
NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT! No matter what you think of him, Clay can sing!
Only thing is, people here are right – Simon will freak. God forbid that the next American Idol might be a little broadway or heaven forbid….gay!!!!
I absolutely agree that this will spice things up for AI. Danny might have made it to Top 12 if he had toned the attitude. We love to see Simon freak!
PBS presented the Queen concert tonight and I thought Adam would find a place on AI if he uses some strategy.
glam rock period = AI genre theme.
i think he might be Danny 2.0 minus the back-talk
That Sam Harris performance was amazing.
And he’s still got it. Check out his recent performance of Bridge Over Troubled Water: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkA9l8hHgC0
LOOOOOOOVE him!!! And I’m a Middle American, thankyouverymuch.
Comparisons to Clay & David Hernandez are a good thing in my book. And if the whole Top 12 get to tour this year… I’m happy for them but SHEESH why couldn’t Hernandez have gotten to tour last year?!? (Ok, I know why – *cough*gaystripper*cough* – but my fave hasn’t made it to tour for 3 seasons now!)
Ahem, back to Adam. IMO one of the best vocalists Idol has ever seen. Stage experience & presence, range, control, beautiful tone, and versatility… and I love him already… yep, he’s doomed! Sorry Adam. At least I’ll hopefully get to hear him on my tv a couple of times and they maybe in a Broadway series tour in a few years!!
