UPDATE: It appears James got in touch with Chris Daughtry. He tweets: (James reaaallly needs to shut up now. lulz)
Im stoked! Daughtry is advising me. It’s cool there’s someone who went through this exact thing that I can talk to! Thanks Brother! Just what he was thinking right after idol ended. And being on the road w/o your family how he copes! You can NEVER stop learning new things. Common grounds! :-) y’all get it. I don’t have to explain :-) And he’s a Christian I hear! That’s double points in my family’s book! Good people! :-)
James Durbin offered Adam Lambert an olive branch via twitter Sunday night after bashing the Season 8 runner up in several interviews.
@adamlambert Hey dude! Id really enjoy grabbing some lunch with you and just talking about all this Idol/Post Idol stuff! I could really use…Some one on one advice. Regardless of any supposed bad blood, Im calling truce :) Anyway.thats me. Glad your tour is goin great…direct message me if this is something that you might be interested in doing. Thanks for the consideration! :)-James…Have I shocked any DURBINATORS with that one? lol Adam was totally cool when we met! Just so yall know!
Adam responded almost immediately:
@JDurbinAI10 haha why don’t we just go ahead and discuss it right now over twitter? I’d be honored to advise… :) #nobadblood
James declines to discuss business over twitter,
“well as much as they’d love it..just as u don’t wanna spoil ur album, I don’t wanna spoil anything lol…you understand right?
Adam answers,
“oh I definitely understand.”
James suggests they get together
“just think about it. If youre free, hit me up. Im just not the “twitter business meeting” type. thanks anyway, brother. :-/ I’ll be in the LA area all month..you know the deal :)”
Adam’s all…affirmative!
“ok ;)”
I guess some of the Durbinators are all WTF, because James needs to calm them down!
“Durbinators! You know my intentions are good! I just wanna sit down w/ a fellow musician & talk about the business But twitters the only way…To ask that musician..”
So that’s that! A truce has been called. Will Adam and James get together for a little business talk? Hm. We may never know.
Oh, and in other news, James tweets that Idol tour rehearsals begin tomorrow (Monday).
eta: Is James reading here? lulz:
“for the record, I wish Daughtry could give me advice..That would be gooder than good :)”
Shortly after Adam told The Hollywood Reporter that he was “kind of over” James–a contestant Adam praised in the early weeks of Season 10–James began sniping at the Season 8 runner up in the press.
After the MTV interview, Adam responded via twitter, “in regards to Idol I’ve said way too much. Media turns non-personal, honest opinions into “feuds”…like mom taught: ‘if u don’t have anything nice to say- don’t say it all’ sorry if I hurt any feelings- not my intent.”
