To be fair I guess, he did play Ray Charles, and there’s no original members of the Rat Pack still alive. So I guess Jamie is the next best thing? lol

Thanks anyway, Katri.

I do not know HOW they will get through 10 (!) songs tonight, when they couldn’t do 8 of them. We’ll see. I think that they contestants won’t get judged until after they have sung twice; could be wrong about that.

I continue to wait for Adam to sing Dust in the Wind or similar to show off his entire range. I agree, he will probably do it Top 3. Next week, he will rock out with Slash, etal.

DON’T FORGET TO VOTE

Any validity to that spoiler from the so-called band member? If That’s Life is the only song he sings I’ll be disappointed. (Although knowing Adam, maybe not). I’m beginning to feel like every change AI’s made this year is bad. One song for top 5? Just no.

The HCYDC video from Upright is incredible. Oh to see this guy live. If he loses to Kris it will be a sad, sad day for AI imo.

The whole this is in 5 parts, 3Gig for the whole thing. Dunno how to send it.

Alx: LOL Bill, I wasn’t informing you! I was sure you knew, I just posted that to confirm JJ’s suspicions.Anyway, it just looks to me like he is a good actor, but who knows?

He’s one of the few Fiyeros that I truly enjoyed – even if he’s not the AI Adam he is today. I’ve seen my share of Fiyeros but what he did to the songs and character is fun and can’t help but fall in love with him (Fiyero) in some scenes.

I’m going to register over there just to leave a comment, which is what i’m sure the writer is gunning for.

In the event she is talking about “Foxx” in that context, though, the “Ray” soundtrack has several songs recorded by Rat Packers other than “Georgia on My Mind.” Sinatra covered “Hallelujah, I Love Her So,” and “I Can’t Stop Loving You,” and Sammy Davis, Jr. recorded “What’d I Say.” I guess Foxx could be linked to any of those by having lip-synced them in the film, but it sure seems tenuous to me.

but i thought the top 5 ALWAYS sing 2 songs?!?

Guys, I need your help. Adam needs your help.

Go here:

There is the anti-Adam sentiment beginning over there, and I knew it was going to happen. So go there and speak to the general populace before it’s too late.

Boy, you guys have had some conversations while I was attempting to find out good stuff on twitter.

Five for Fighting, Foo Fighters, it’s all alliteration, right?

Adam must sing Dust in the Wind for the finale. Can someone get this info to Kevin? Does he twitter?

Katri, still needing Wicked bootleg info…please?!

Adam=bi=still a chance for many of you. KIDDING!!!

*patiently waiting for report AND pictures*

ADAM FTW

wizkid: After leaving the “Upright Cabaret” on Saturday I was getting gas and I bumped into a couple friendly guys from the event that knew Adam.He said he is a super nice guy. I asked the one something about “Adams boyfriend”, he said, “Adam doesn’t have a boyfriend”.I said oh really… “is he bi?”He smiled (probaby at me for asking such a bold question), and before he could answer I got interrupted. Dang! Missed opportunity!

wohoo!! bisexual would be perfect, he can have the best of both worlds. and girls all over the world can still dream.

Bill Mitchell: Nah, he clearly slipped her the tongue – completely unnecessary in a stage production

Maybe Adam just likes tonguing people. Lol. A lot of pictures of him with his tongue out. Girls, guys, unidentified. Maybe its his favorite pastime

“Not talking about anyone in particular. Adam always seems to find his truth no matter the genre.”

i’ll be holding my breath is all i’m saying

Bill Mitchell: I once knew a studio musician in LA that could hear a song once on the radio and play it back for you, making changes and telling you how he would improve it here and there – but, the man couldn’t even read music – all by ear.

Are you talking about Matt Giraud? He plays piano and drums by ear and can play a song back for you. He’s done most of the arrangements thus far on his own.

Or maybe, since he’s a professional actor, he just so happens to be good at, oh… I don’t know… ACTING?

Just sayin’. =P

Anyway, it just looks to me like he is a good actor, but who knows?

Well THANK YOU Dr Obvious. And here I thought it was just a really well-lit completely candid moment.

Of COURSE it is from a stage production. The point is that he looks like he likes it. I think that there is a very good chance that Adam is Bi. If not before Idol, then after when ever babe on planet earth will be throwing themselves at him.

He would have to be VERY gay to resist that. I know it happens to me every day and I always end up giving in

Um, this is clearly from a stage production. Adam obviously has many fans on this site. Can we all just accept his orientation and appreciate him for all he has to offer?

Also, the guy has amazing vocal ability, can act, and is a proficient dancer. These are skills most useful in the theater, and my impression is that he has been involved in that for longer than the recording/pure music performance aspect of the biz. That might explain why he hasn’t taken up an instrument.

BTW, talking about Wicked, they’re posting new videos of Adam performing at the Upright Cabaret on New Year’s eve, here’s the latest one (How Come You Don’t Call Me Anymore):
