On the serious side, he will probably be singing something in Hebrew for the Stephen Spielberg JDL benefit. Geez, I forgot what he sang w/ the Israeli singer before, and I should know this.

The Prayer

And also “Shir Lashalom”, which is a song about yearning for peace, and has taken on an even more significantl meaning ever since the assassination of Yitzchak Rabin, because that was the last song he sang in a demonstration for peace, and after he was shot, they found the words of the song written on a note and folded in his breast pocket…
It was chilling to hear Adam sing it…

And an Adam Christmas album??
All I can say is Haaaa haaaaa
Nope. Don’t see it happening.
Then again, Adam’s notorious for doing the unexpected… now that would be unexpected…

“Not so far, and given his reaction to the question at the red carpet for 2012, I don’t think Adam wants to do it.

In other words, I dearly hope not. Because that would be the one (real) Adam Lambert album I would not buy.”

Yes, I haven’t heard anything about Adam making Christmas music. I’m a huge fan of Adam but I would not purchase that CD. For starters, Adam singing schmaltzy carols, I don’t see it. For another, I’m Jewish myself and would never listen to Christmas music in the first place. Perhaps a Chanukah album then? Bet Adam’s cover of Maoz Tzur would be pretty and then a spoofy one that makes fun of Christmas could be super hilarious. And he could do a funky dreidel dreidel with the rock shreak. Would be so hilarious and awesome!! No? There’s a nice amount of other songs he could tap into too that go with the holiday.

Well, the Y100 Jingle Ball this Saturday in Sunrise (Ft. Lauderdale) Fl. has performers such as Shakira and FloRida. I was thinking of going with my friend, but we don’t have any daughters to chaperone. Can we borrow some? lol Does anyone know if Adam’s definitely going to this one? I know Jordin Sparks will perform also. I am definitely rethinking getting tickets because of the youthful ages mentioned here. oh boy, feeling old…lol

I just don’t want Adam to put out a Christmas album or sing Christmas songs that aren’t about, oh, snow.

I didn’t mean that Adam would be performing religious Chirstmas music. I was merely responding to a post above about Adam appearing in the Jingle Balls events and discussing Christmas. Some folks have said it was odd but I was just pointing out that it isn’t anything new. Some of the holiday classics (“The Christmas Song” “White Christmas”, “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree’ and “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” to name a very few) were even written by Jewish composers. Its just making a living.

Adam is the next in a LONG line of Jewish performers who have written, performed or otherwise produced Christmas music, television programs, plays and movies. A few, such as Barbara Streisand, have even contributed religious Christmas products.

I forgot to mention the Dickensian scarf and emo hair.

I’m not nervous (re: The ladies of The View).

Don’t be skerrrred. I’m not skeeered.

Just dropping in from busier than usual RL today and wanted to say I’m not skerred, either! I think that going on these talk shows is really crucial for Adam right now. Whether he’d done what he did on the AMAs or not, the fact, IMO, is that he is a much bigger picture than just a great voice, but a lot of people wouldn’t look past the crazy hair and fingernail polish to give him the time of day. Showing his cool/classy/intelligent/articulate side can only help. I really don’t think Barbara asked him on her show to lambaste him. The impression I get is that she truly likes him, and she’s certainly no prude, so I doubt she was even in the slightest offended by his performance. In addition to the obvious draw of ratings, I also think Barbara wanted him on The View because she wanted to make a point on his behalf.

According to Adam in several interviews, the Lambert household, while not particularly observant, did not celebrate Christmas at all ‘“ they did Chanukah and the occasional Passover. I was rather surprised at that, too. In a recent radio interview, he even said that Chanukah Harry came to his house (Jon Lovitz must be proud.)

I just figure that a Jingle Ball is not the time or place to quibble about the name of the holiday for which he received that He-Man Castle.
