Spielberg was presented with the Democratic Legacy Award at the dinner that took place at the Beverly Hills Hilton, in Los Angeles, CA.

Check out more photos of Adam, below. And, after the jump, check out a short newsclip from FOX11 with a brief clip of Adam singing.

    Not sure if these wonderful comments from Steven Spielberg have been posted:

    Steven Spielberg just said that @adamlambert is one of his heroes. 3 minutes ago from Echofon

    He also said that his kids will be most impressed that he met @adamlambert tonight 2 minutes ago from Echofon

    Steven Spielberg thanked Adam for singing tonight and said that @adamlambert has an amazing gift 2 minutes ago from Echofon

    Adam’s voice is amazing, and the opportunities his talent has provided him.
    I’m so happy for him. Hope we get the full clip of him singing the NA today!!

  • agathe.hb

    well, I hope the entire event was taped,

  • mitchellvii

    So why cant we find a clip of this?

  • robininny

    Adam looks just spectacular in these photos. Sounds like he sang his face off, too.

    Thats quite a compliament from Steven Spielberg who is one of the best, most respected directors of all time. You can’t get any better than that! And he’s right. Adam’s voice is a gift from God!

  • mayang

    maybe spielberg was charmed also by r glittery alien form planet fierce.

  • Laury

    Adam is living his dream. :)
    He has a bright future to come

  • Chicagolaw

    I am sure the event was taped, but who knows if any video will surface.

    He looked so handsome.

  • V8Adam

    He looks so good in these pictures. Very classy Adam! Very classy!!!!!!
    Hope we get to hear the whole anthem.

  • tls62

    Geez…..that man can wear clothes like no other. Being a shoe fanatic myself, I’m in complete awe of his shoe/boot collection. He looks to be truly enjoying himself and I couldn’t be happier for him. There’s no arguing the support and respect he’s getting from the industry. Good for you Adam.

    What an adventure for someone that has had this dream for so long. I have no idea how he shuts his mind off enough to even sleep at night. I’d be totally wired 24/7.

  • LaRue

    Adam looks great in these photos. It’s among the best looks I’ve seen on him.

  • DLee

    Oh I really want to hear the whole song.

    Oh I really want to hear the whole song.

    Me too. I’d also like to hear Noa Dori.

    WWFM and FYE have both had slight bumps on Itunes. Yesterday morning they were #187 and #145 respectively on the Itunes overall singles, now they’re at #155 and #113.

    I’m guessing the WWFM bump has to do with radio spins (maybe?), but the FYE bump confuses me, do you think it has to do with the MV?

    Well, since they both rose by about the same amount, maybe some people got interested in Adam, checked out what singles he had out, and then bought both of them.

  • gemini1

    RT @J_Lambs: Adam on RolingStone Japan, January-2010 issue. http://bit.ly/8WstvD

    FYI, the Rolling Stone Japan article had this little piece of text on the Sebree photo that said:

    ã‚ ¢Ã£Æ’€ãƒ  Ã£  ®Ã¦â„¢â€šÃ¤ » £Ã£â€šË†Ã¢â„¢ ¡ = It’s Adam’s Eraâ™ ¡

  • angela

    yes, I am hoping to see a longer clip of Adam singing also, maybe somebody from Israel will post it, they bound to have more coverage on the event. and btw wtf is the famale reporter problem? ” changing his tune”? that is why I hate the ppl of the press, just throwing words outthere hoping they will give them ratings, she should do her freaking homework and see what Adam had done before, here are some links for those who did not see it:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf4s2nW6nYY&feature=related

    anyhow, Adam looked like a million bucks and deserves all the praise he is getting, I really don’t think there is anything that he cannot do.

  • Gigi3

    I’m feeling a little verklempt. ;)

    What a night this must have been for Adam! How great that he was able to sing for those powerful and influential people. He dressed perfectly for the event too.

  • Destry

    True, wouldn’t that be nice!

    Awww Gigi, verklempt – that is me too – how wonderful for Adam and Barbara – go Barbara!

  • rockchick

    Bill O’reilly you are homophobic and ignorant.

  • saga

    Check out more photos of Adam, below. And, after the jump, check out a short newsclip from FOX11 with a brief clip of Adam singing.

    That is NOT what the clip is showing…

  • mfab

    I don’t know that old man. Maybe he is jealous coz adam is more popular than him in my country.

  • gemini1

    Bill O’reilly you are homophobic and ignorant.

    lol! I couldn’t figure out what you were talking about. I wondered if O’Reilly was at the ADL dinner last night. But then, someone so full of hate would never attend an event such as this.
    I think that O’Reilly clip was mistakenly put in the wrong thread.

  • dyg1

    The video is not right

    This is the one:

  • realvivi

    ADAM might be singing at the Academy Awards!!!?????

  • DLee

    I don’t know which thread to be in….We need a View thread.

  • saga

    We can be here!

  • angela

    ok i LOVE whoopi and barbara, and that is official!!!

  • jericho

    ADAM might be singing at the Academy Awards!!!?????

    Whut???!!!!

  • saga

    They said on the View that there is a rumor that he will sing on the Oscars… and that is live. :grin:

  • MaryS-NJ

    Wow, Adam looks so, so pretty in these pics. I like to see his face (relatively) unadorned and I like his hair and suit.

    ETA: I really believe that Bill O’Reilly has no priciples and no positions except “cause the most outrage possible for ratings”.

  • jericho

    They said on the View that there is a rumor that he will sing on the Oscars’ ¦ and that is live.

    oh great. thanks saga!

  • angela

    what a great interview, you go Adam! and Elizabeth is totally sucking up to him!!

    change that, elizabeth is his newest fangirl!!
    beautiful singing, Adam!!

  • Kanadie Bonttell

    That O’Reilly clip just really made me sad…what a piece of sh*t he is, and should be totally embarrassed. Adam’s actions at the AMA’s don’t even come close to being as offensive as the pathetic words coming from that mans mouth. YIKES!

  • BootStar

    Why the hell would Barbara Walters go on that freakin’ douchebag’s show? I HATE HIM.

  • bmms

    ADAM might be singing at the Academy Awards!!!?????

    Yes! I heard this as well. Hope Adam Shankman is able to make this happen for Adam. *crossing fingers* Thank God the Oscars are on CBS, I think and I hope!

  • Mitla96

    I’m GLAD Barbara went on O’Reilly and spoke up for Adam. She showed up that d-bag O’Reilly for what he is-a classless, screaming homophobe.

  • SpenserJ

    Sometimes, because of the silliness of the View, I think people often forget what Barbara Walters is. She’s a damn legend, and a pioneer of women in journalism. She has more journalistic credibility than any 10 talking heads you might see on tv these days.

    So, regardless of the subject matter, Barbara Walters would f*cking own Bill O’Reilly under any circumstances.

  • unique28v

    Bill O’Reilly showed his true colors when he called him “the gay guy”.

  • clearone

    Adam sure looked mighty dapper last night. He is so handsome without all the eye gunk messing up those incredible features.

    Sure would love to hear the entire version of SSB. There is nothing more wonderful than acapella Adam.

    Who knew Mr Spielberg was such fan! Yeah!

  • uglyduck

    What is ‘verklempt’? :)

  • Mrs.P

    Why is that video put with this thread. Adam was given a very nice opportunity to sing and be at a terrific well regarded event and then this video is attached. Weird.

  • MaggieDMD

    Verklempt: Extremely emotional. On the verge of tears

    Why is there not a full video of him singing the National Anthem the 5 sec clip we do get to hear he sounds absolutely amazing

  • Esqt

    censored?

  • clearone

    Yeah the O’Reilly video is sort of out of place here.

  • JOJOSIE

    Adam sang the anthem at a military base on his home visit during Idol. He did an amazing job then so I expect this performance was stellar given the emotion of the night. He really did look wonderful.

  • eclipse coming

    What a homophobic jerk B. O. is! He should be ignored and dismissed. Adam has more character and compassion in his almost 28 years than that man has ever had.

  • Mary102

    What a homophobic jerk B. O. is!

    LOL – I couldn’t have said it better myself :-)

  • iluvai

    I like the picture of Adam with Noa Dori. I wonder if she is too old to try out for Idol. She’s a beautiful singer.

  • http://none tamie2785

    I am proud of you,ADAM!!!

  • sleepinggiant

    MJ – LINK ERROR with the OReilly video instead of the Fox ADL newscoverage.

    Oh wait. Is that some kind of editorial juxtaposition? Not crazy about the idea…

  • nora

    Does anyone have a video of Adam singing the whole SSB at the ADL awards?

  • Mrs.P

    “I like the picture of Adam with Noa Dori. I wonder if she is too old to try out for Idol. She’s a beautiful singer.”

    Noa Dori is a well regarded “professional singer” with an extensive repertoire.
