Sooooo, the speculation begins ….. do we think it is Ke$ha ??
That’s my opinion. It had to be someone non-threatening, not likely to be clingy, and someone he hasn’t known for years, otherwise he’d already have tried it. I think it was when the two of them were in Paris a couple of years ago.
I agree but we will never know for sure will we?!!! It’s probably good to not know EVERYTHING about his personal life
I love that article. Its a good mix of what we already knew and a wee bit more info! I tried so hard not to listen to the songs, now they are out in the world. I so wanted my first listen to be from the actual cd. But I caved in and am loving all of them! I can’t stop playing them, and I Love it that I can’t. Its brilliant!
This is really interesting, the process -

I am finding myself addicted to, well, all of them, no, not BTIKM, but the rest, and I am up dancing to Shady !!! I think it will be a huge hit !
…Oh, i would have loved a good funky horn section in that. Oh well. BUT, I am already picturing the dance moves Adam will do to that song .. down & dirty
This is just magnificent, wonderfully technical with illustrative videos. And it made some points about his voice I’d never seen discussed.

Looks like we may have to get used to this !!! What he said about Underneath made me cry, just like the song does, every time ….

“In the next track, “Underneath,” Adam has written what could end up being the most breathtaking song of his career. Dark, emotional and atmospheric; it is a lyrical and sonic masterpiece in every way. (“Strip away the flesh and bone, look beyond the lies you’ve known, everybody wants to talk about a freak, no one wants to dig that deep, let me take you underneath…”) Imagine that Richard Marx wrote a confessional song about his dark side in the vein of Madonna’s “Ray of Light” album – then imagine it modern. One of the most haunting and beautiful songs, ever. Period.”

Another thing to get ready for next week. Q&A at Billboard!
Guess they can’t be all good – the homophobia & bias here is stunning – From EW
“Adam Lambert might be the only American Idol alum who considers purple eyeliner a daytime look. So it’s hard to understand why it took him so long to make his big gay dance-club album. Even after he came out in 2009, the eighth-season runner-up didn’t stop flirting with the straight crowd, indulging in classic-rock guitars and gender-neutral pronouns on his debut, For Your Entertainment. But on Trespassing, he’s left the closet far behind — defending gay marriage (”Outlaws of Love”) and celebrating what happens when two consenting adults love each other enough to share their safe words (”Chokehold”). He’s also officially coming out as a superfan of funk, ’80s-night house, and Studio 54 grooves, tapping Chic’s Nile Rodgers to produce, along with Pharrell Williams and Dr. Luke. Thanks to these pop vets, Trespassing’s first half is a study in fabulosity: ”Kickin’ In” is stripper-heel disco at its finest, and the rousing ”Shady” plants its freak flag in the uncharted territory between Nine Inch Nails and Michael Jackson. Too bad the ballad-heavy second half is so laughably over-the-top. By the end, our hero is wailing about fallen Towers of Babel and ripping away his flesh and bone to a ”red river of screams.” Cheer up, Glammy. It’s nothing a little makeup remover can’t fix. B-”
Eff you !!!!
… and, a great response.

Gross and completely ignorant.
Excellent response to an ignorant statement. You can almost feel her animosity in this.
