Adam books

What is it with celebrity interviews lately? Must everyone take things out of context?

Adam Lambert spoke with U.K. magazine Gay Times for its March issue, in an interview excerpted here. Yes, he criticizes Susan Boyle’s album. But does he “slam Susan Boyle“? Was the point of the interview to trash her album and extend his “15 minutes of fame“? Has he “gone on the record to tell everyone what he really thinks” and blame SuBo’s album for his failure? Hardly.

[A]dam answered his critics when For Your Entertainment sold 200,000 copies in its first week on sale, charting above new releases from Rihanna and Lady Gaga, albeit outsold by a certain Scottish lassie…

“I know, if only it weren’t for Susan Boyle!” Adam laughs. “I’m happy for her success, but that album is terrible. Wild Horses is the one that made me laugh the hardest. I just died when I heard it, I was crying with laughter. It was the most horrendous, sacrilegious treatment of that song!

“Still, when my album charted, it was validating. I was feeling [a] bit attacked, like I had to vindicate something. I thought: ‘Wow, look what I did.’”

Does that read as if the Real Adam Lambert was twirling his villainous imaginary mustache, or shaking a fist at the heavens, and, in the spirit of “Scooby-Doo,” cursing, “If only it hadn’t been for Susan Boyle and those meddling kids! I would’ve gotten away with it!”

Or does it read as if, perhaps …

… the singer is responding to a fact-based mention that Boyle’s first album debuted higher than Lambert’s? Did the reporter note that Adam laughed at that moment perhaps to make it clear that the glittery one wasn’t cursing his non-competition?

You decide.

(Of course, objectively, “I’m happy for her success” is about as horrific as an attack on another human can get. We realize that brutality might sway your interpretation.)

Susan boyle Now let’s take a trip into the irony department, with a bit pulled from higher up in the interview, before the alleged Boyle-clubbing section. (Shock! His album comments aren’t actually the lead of the story! Which you’d never know if you did a Google news search of the two names right now!)

These are the words of Gay Times writer Jamie Taberrer; the bold emphasis is mine:

From his forgivable penchant for guyliner (don’t pretend you haven’t been there), to his opinion-polarising album cover, to his controversial performance at last year’s American Music Awards (in which he kissed and groped a male member of his band, inducing thousands of complaints to TV network ABC) it seems Adam can’t bat a mascara-clad eyelash without offending somebody. The irony being, of course, that Adam’s really not shocking underneath it all. In fact, he’s a just a normal guy who – shock, horror! – is actually WILLING to talk about his sexuality.

Boyle and Lambert were both pop-culture sensations on their respective continents and beyond, and were both runners-up in high-profile singing competitions — so bringing up the comparison isn’t shocking. And even if, like me, you have no problem with SuBo, giggling at her take on the Rolling Stones’ “Wild Horses” is hardly out-of-the-box thinking.

Today’s flurry sounds suspiciously like widely repeated reports of Adam putting “one of his own fans on blast” for talking on a cellphone during his performance (If what Adam actually said was an attack, a lot of what’s on the Ministry probably violates Geneva Conventions). Despite the American Music Awards uproar, Lambert has a track record of good manners and general decency toward others. So of course the search is on for the story or headline that “reveals” some heretofore unseen mean and nasty “real Adam” lurking under the surface.

“Adam’s not really shocking at all” doesn’t drive Internet traffic like “Adam’s picking on poor sweet Susan Boyle” does.

Context, people. It’s all about the context. Call me when there’s video of Adam clubbing a baby seal, and then maybe I’ll believe he’s a jerk.

Maybe.

Ewan McGregor shot down some casual homophobia from George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America yesterday in a discussion about a photo of McGregor and Jim Carrey kissing.

Asked Stephanopoulos as producers giggled (and one mumbled what sounds like “oh God”) in the background: “What is that about?”

Replied McGregor: “Well that’s just two men kissing, and it’s, uh, in this age, in 2010 it’s extraordinary that it’s still an object of humor.”

Stephanopoulos: “Well you aren’t just kissing, you’re kind of making out there.”

McGregor: “That’s a kiss. That’s just a kiss.”

Colin Firth won ‘Best Actor’ at last night’s Bafta’s for his performance in Tom Ford’s ‘A Single Man’. Firth plays George, a gay college professor breaking down after his partner dies in a car accident. Firth said of working with the director/fashion designer:

“An encounter with Tom Ford is come away feeling resuscitated a little more worldy, better informed, better groomed, more fragranced and more nominated than one has ever been before.

“What Tom Ford doesn’t know is I have the email in my outbox telling him I could not possibly do this,” Firth said. “I was about to send it when a man came to repair my fridge … so I would like to thank the fridge guy.”
Sounds like the beginning of a porno doesn’t it? Albeit an intellectual one where they converse about Isherwood.

Just a few months ago, in October of 2009, Perez was in New York City hosting an event. John Mayer obviously was aware of this, as he’s repeatedly admitted in the past that he regularly reads our website, and he started blowing up our cell phone with texts.

The douchebag singer and Perez have had a secret (until now) text and email relationship (nothing sexual) for quite some time now.

Mayer invited us over to his NYC apartment – at 2 AM! – to “listen” to some tracks off his new album. We went – and arrived at 3 AM with three friends, who can verify that this indeed happened.

Over the course of the next five hours, Mayer and Perez pretty much ignored everyone else in the room and engaged in a heated non-stop conversation, the highlight of which was John confronting Perez about whether or not we really think he’s gay.

It went like this:

John: “You think I’m gay don’t you?”

Perez: “Yes.”

John: “I’m not.”

Perez: “Have you ever had a penis in your mouth?”

John: “Yes.”

Perez: “Your’e gay!”

Mayer has already admitted to making out with Perez. Hopefully one day soon he will admit he’s had a penis in his mouth too!

1960’s singer Connie Francis recently discovered that she likes gay porn stars – and gay porn stars like her, too!

At a recent Ft. Lauderdale celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of her film Where The Boys Are, Francis was escorted by four burly beefcakes as part of her promotional apperance. The Connie Francis Great American Beach Party was full of a different sort of “family” having a different sort of “fun,” though –  Francis’s hairdresser recognized and outed the four escorts as major gay porn stars, including crazy-faced Falcon alum Matthew Rush (pictured at right with Francis).

Johnny Weir Is Gay!

Posted by: admin In: Ent. & Celebs Gossip

Let’s face it: He posed in high heels, he feels there can never be too many sequins, and he won’t answer whether he’s gay or not, feeling such labels aren’t necessary.

Have you ever heard a straight guy say “I’d rather not answer if I’m gay”?”

And how often have you heard of a straight male figure skater anyway?

All those reasons and more are why Johnny Weir is obviously a poufter on ice. And I love him for it! Even if HE doesn’t think gayness is something worth publicly celebrating, I sure do.

So I say spin, girlfriend!! Spin for your sisters!

Ellen demands $150,00 for 'American Idol' wardrobe

New"American Idol," judge Ellen DeGeneres is reportedly asking for a $150,000 cash allowance for her wardrobe.

Ellen DeGeneres is demanding a $150,000 wardrobe allowance on “American Idol,” according to reports. “She feels it’s only fair because Paula [Abdul] received a hefty allowance for hair, makeup and wardrobe,” says a source. But isn’t $150K a bit much for, umm, jeans and flannel shirts? Says the insider: “Ellen is envisioning couture evening wear designed just for her – not dresses, but hand-made suits, pants and shirts.” www.nationalenquirer.com
