Adam is the HBIC
Jun. 16th, 2009 08:44 pmHead Bitch In Charge...that's the nickname bestowed on Adam Lambert over at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
ontd_ai. I think it came from some modeling reality show, but hell, it fits him. The guy is a total alpha male. With every interview I see with him, I am more amazed with his people skills. He reads interviewers like a book and has them eating out of the palm of his hand.
The news cycle the last week has been all about the Rolling Stone cover and the "I'm gay" thing. (Next up, "Water is Wet" and "The Sky is Blue.") Fortunately, already the news cycle has started to shift to the tour and the music, and I couldn't be more excited. He is co-writing and working with some of the top producers in the biz. It sounds like there's going to be a rock/pop flavor to the album, but hell, he could release 10 Bing Crosby covers and I would buy it.
From the get go, I swore I wasn't going to shell out the bucks for the idols tour, but my resolve has flown right out the window with my dignity. We know Adam will be doing FIVE solo songs including a Bowie 3 song medley (including "Fame"), and "Starlight" by Muse. He'll also be reprising his utterly charming duet with Allison of "Slow Ride." OK, you win. I'm going, I'm going.
Here he is yesterday on his way to an interview on Access Hollywood. Not digging the new haircut, but the boy has style.
He gave a GREAT interview with (of all people) Oprah.com. I'm soooooo excited.
Q&A with American Idol's Adam Lambert
By Stephanie Snipes
From the very first note, there was no doubt Adam Lambert was bringing something new to the Idol stage. He is by far one of the most original and talented performers in the music industry today—and he has the Rolling Stone cover to prove it!
Screening Room chatted with the American Idol runner-up about life in the fast lane.
Stephanie Snipes: We simply must start by talking about the Rolling Stone cover. How amazing is that?
Adam Lambert: Wild, right? I was so honored when they asked me. It's surreal. Every time I see it on a newsstand or on someone's coffee table I'm like, "Whoa! That's me! Oh my gosh!" It's wild. It's such an honor.
( Cut for long-ass but totally worth reading interview )

So, in personal stuff, my house is still on the market. The market here is dead, dead, dead. I'm getting to the point where I'm thinking seriously about renting this place out and moving north anyway. Plus, it makes more sense to buy at the bottom of the market, and sell after it starts to rebound. I'm pretty confident I can find a job, although I'll probably have to work full-time again, at least for a while. The next six months should be full of interesting changes.
In happier news, I head up to Canada in a couple short weeks to revel in its beauty, drink gin and tonics with the lovely![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
and_ed, AND WE GET TO SEE GREEN DAY. TWICE. And I get to meet (fucking finally!) loser_and_user!!!!!!! And hook up with a few other of my Green Day peeps! God, I can hardly wait. Yes, my life is not bad at all.
Hope the rest of you can say the same.
