Today’s top story is all about what Clay Aiken said on his blog about Adam Lambert. Hmmm. For me. it’s okay to express your own opinion about somebody and it’s just an opinion anyway neglecting other people’s negative comments about it.
Now that Aiken apologized in Lambert’s fan site saying: ” I’ll be the first to admit that my opinion is just that, only my opinion, but for as much as some of the bloggers seem to dislike me and care so little about my thoughts, they sure can waste a lot of their space on what I say! If only many of them took the time to pay attention to important things like the US economy and the welfare of the world’s children. But nah I could blog about that type of stuff anytime and most wouldn’t think twice, but let me say something that they can pick and choose quotes and misinterpret me and it’s showtime! I never assumed my opinion mattered so much! I guess I may have been wrong. That said, since my previous blog got dissected like a biology lab frog, i suppose I should clarify and even retract some of what I wrote. I am sure that some were upset by my choice of words describing my opinion of a performance I heard from Adam Lambert. I hope no one actually believed that blood truly poured forth from my ears when I heard him. I obviously meant it as a colorful statement to imply that I did not enjoy what I heard. Any performer hopes that their music will appeal to all people, but no singer realistically expects it to. God knows, I am SURE there are PLENTY of people who can’t stand to hear me sing either. I wouldn’t dream of assuming that, and I am sure that far worse things have been said about my performances than I would even venture to type here. To me, that’s fine. I don’t expect unanimous, nor even majority support for my music. But, my guess is Adam doesn’t either. I would not venture to make judgements [sic] on the personality or demeanor of anyone I don’t know, so none of what I said in my previous blog was directed as a ‘slam’ on Adam as a person. At the same time, I wouldn’t dream of slamming him as an entertainer. He does what he does, because he enjoys it, and he obviously has many fans who enjoy it as well. If what I said in my previous blog regarding my impression of a single performance from Adam upset or offended any of his fans, I expect that the mature ones will realize that it was simply a poorly worded metaphor describing my personal tastes. The only person I would really dream of apologizing to is Adam. And the irony is, if he’s smart he couldn’t give a crap what I think of his ‘Ring of Fire’ performance. As an entertainer, Adam knows that one person’s opinion of one performance really matters a little less than zero, in the grand scheme of things. He could not have gotten on Idol (nor made it as far as he did) without an immense amount of talent. He surely doesn’t need my approval to know he has a gift. At the same time, he realizes that amazing talent doesn’t always equal universal appeal. (I could NEVER have the amount of skill and talent that ballet dancers have! that’s talent! But, I don’t particularly enjoy it!) I am sure that I will have plenty of opportunities in the coming years to hear Adam sing. I imagine he’ll be around for years to come. But in the meantime, I definitely don’t want to stoop to the level of so many negative freaks on the internet so, I do apologize to Adam for my colorful (and negative) choice of words. I hope he can forgive me. I imagine he doesn’t give a d—! God knows he shouldn’t.”
Now it’s clear, whether you wanted to hate him or not, it is not about that. I you have understood it, you are in peace. Think that you can also write a blog about somebody and say even negative because it is what you know. Each of us has different tastes of judgment. So, just be cool about the issue.

Another one about Adam Lambert. He says sexualit cost him Probably win when he was asked by the press if it was it that made him lose the mic from Kris Allen.
That’s funny. Many gays and lesbians are living in this planet and it doesn’t matter. Adam is talking about talent vs. sexuality? Meow! Now, that’s entertaining. I think his sexuality did nothing about that no-win. I know it’s shocking to know his sexuality at first. His sexuality had me a weird impression but it was just nothing when I already hear him sing. His talent still won. He should not blame his own sexuality because it is who he is and all his fans will live with it no matter what. Just accept that Kris Allen got it and that he deserves it. I’m confident about Kris Allen. Move on.

Again for Adam. This is about the band Queen and him. Adam catches the band’s attention of being a part of them. Here are the words from the band:
“Amongst all that furor, there wasn’t really a quiet moment to talk,” May tells Rolling Stone in an e-mail interview. “But [drummer Roger Taylor] and I are definitely hoping to have a meaningful conversation with him at some point. It’s not like we, as Queen, would rush into coalescing with another singer just like that. It isn’t that easy. But I’d certainly like to work with Adam. That is one amazing instrument he has there.”
“You’d have to define ‘legitimate’ first,” he writes. “The long-term answer has to be that, if you have enough talent and enough will to succeed, you will get there by whatever route presents itself. Once you have scaled the castle walls, with the sword in your hand, it matters little
how you got there. I’ve not always been positive about shows like this, but there is no doubt that it offers a door to some real genuine talent along the way,” May said.
Maybe, it’s a good offer to Adam. Anyway, he can join any rock bands if he wanted to but I think he must enter being a solo artist because it will just make him like a solo one with a band. It will be the same but if he wants a band, it his choice and I’m not the one who should say it.
Enough with Adam. I think he is getting more credits from people because of gossips. The media always follows him while Kris Allen is celebrating a relaxation about his win.
