@glambert_1481 oh yes. big, big plans. It’s going to be so much fun about 1 hour ago from web in reply to glambert_1481

And all the hype.

I don’t get why Adam’s media attention is “hype”. Like him or not, he is interesting to people.

Allison Iraheta Defends Adam LambertExtraTV ExtraTV.com 12/07/09 03:44 PM

Adam Lambert may have sparked controversy with his raunchy performance at the American Music Awards, but fellow “American Idol” contestant Allison Iraheta still has his back. “Let me say, I think he did amazing,” Iraheta, 17, tells “Extra,” adding, “That’s who he is.” Lambert, 27, was upset when ABC censored his performance, but recently admitted he got “carried away” at the awards ceremony.

Allison says that “nobody should have been surprised” at Adam’s sexually-charged performance. “You guys know what Adam’s doing,” she says, laughing. “You know what’s coming.”

After several axed performances, Adam will perform on “The View” December 10.

No, Adam’s success is firmly rooted in his own undeniable talent.

And all the hype.

1. Earlier today, when I heard about the View ladies’ twitter bombardment, I was curious and searched their @replies. It didn’t seem like they got a lot of tweets, maybe 15-20, then the subject changed to other people/events. Unless I didn’t go back far enough, it seems like an exaggeration.

That’s what I have seen reported on other sites as well.

All those that watch morning programs were all watching the Today Show (NBC) with Bon Jovi.

I wasn’t. They are old and boring. GRIN.

IMHO, not especially radio-friendly. I love them both, but which station would play them?

Music again is also pretty different than what is on radio right now. That is why I love it, but, again, just wondering who would play it? Hard Rock? Top 40? Hit Radio? Sadly, few music directors seem to go out on a limb.

I love this album BECAUSE it isn’t completely commercial. There are songs that will likely never be on radio. And I am 100% okay with that.

FYI, I think Fever is going to be a huge hit.

I totally agree. I happen to love both FYE and Whataya Want From Me. I feel both of these songs should be radio friendly even though I have yet to hear either of them over the radio. My absolute favorite is Sleepwalker. That haunting background music is just awesome!

I thought Adam did well and had a nice crowd considering it was a last minute schedule change. But most importantly, he sang really well. And besides a couple of million people watching is still a couple of million people.

Elisabeth is annoying because she seems to hate a certain part of Adam’s AMA performance, but she sure doesn’t have any problem ‘simulating’  it for everyone every time she gets the chance.

ITA!

2. Tweeting a TV personality hardly seems like a stalkery, creeper thing to do. It’s not like an email or a phone call- a tweet basically just goes out into the nether unless the person takes the time to read their twitter feed. In addition, everyone on twitter has the option to protect their tweets if they choose.

3. I never watch the morning shows, and didn’t watch the Early Show when Adam appeared either. I did catch it online later in the day, as I assume many people did. It’s so much more efficient that way. With Tivo and online viewing, I don’t even know how Nielsen ratings are relevant anymore.

Funny, I thought that the ratings for the CBS morning show were supposed to finally overtake the ratings for GMA, and that GMA’s ratings would be in free fall, at least that’s what I read.

Wow, I didn’t read that. I know some OTT fans thought CBS would get a good boost, but I didn’t know the media thought there would be a significant change in the number of viewers. I think it would have been almost impossible with the last minute change. Also, I think people who watch the show on a regular basis were the ones watching the show. I don’t get to watch any morning shows because I have to work. I would be surprised if there is much shift in viewship. Besides why watch when MJ provides all that we need.

The New York Times says Adam Lambert’s cancelled appearance on ABC’s Good Morning America and subsequent pick-up by CBS for The Early Show “did not seem to have much impact on the ratings of either show.”

Funny, I thought that the ratings for the CBS morning show were supposed to finally overtake the ratings for GMA, and that GMA’s ratings would be in free fall, at least that’s what I read.

Adam returns to ABC for a Thursday appearance on The View that will include a pre-taped performance. (“People seem to be afraid of what he’ll do,” Barbara Walters told The View viewers today.) He’ll also appear on the So You Think You Can Dance finale Dec. 16.

When will the hype end. Barbara will do anything to drum up ratings. They know good and well that Adam isn’t going to do anything that’s over the top, and for the most part, their viewers really don’t care. It’s just like the AMA, tell people that something OTT will happen so that they will tune in. At some point, people will begin to talk substance as far as Adam is concerned, and it will be about his talent, and not what he will do to “shock” people.

Yes..Fever is my favorite. Too sexy??? really? I don’t think so… and I’m old, lol.

Lights on and your moms not home… love that line.
