Whataya Want From Me

by Adam Lambert

chosen by Just_Lin







Well, Adam Lambert sure shook things up at the AMA show the other night! His overt display of sexuality made plenty of folks uncomfortable, although they had seen the same thing before, only done by female artists, such as Madonna. A few shows canceled his appearance because of it but Dave Letterman was not one of them. I was watching Letterman's show when Adam came on and sang this song. I love it and the words seem very appropriate as he finds himself in the middle of controversy. The kid sure has talent and he's even prettier than Tina!

First!!

Jodi said...

SLIN - Now that's the Adam I know and love!!! I'm not a prude, but the AMA's were a bit offensive. It was just like he was trying too hard!!!

Jodi said...

And did anyone else think that (if you would've just listened to his AMA performance with your eyes closed) that he kinda sounded like Liberace?!!? Seriously!!!

Jodi said...

Why yes I did HODI!!!

Jodi said...

Boy....you're pretty this morning!!!

Jodi said...

Why thank you....prettier than TINA?

Jodi said...

GOLDIE - Can't wait to see your handywork in the bathroom!! I'm sure it's BEAUTIFUL!!!

Jodi said...

ZONA - Don't worry....u still got to sing for the girls yesterday!!! And they LOVED it!!!

Jodi said...

left, left, left, right, left!!!

Jodi said...

10!!!

Jodi said...

I hope everyone has a great day!!!

Jodi said...

SHIRLEY - I hope you're feeling better, but please keep your snot to yourself.....TYVM!!!

Hey Jodi! Congrats on the first 12 comments!

People may be having trouble commenting this morning. I can't see the comment link on my computer, but I put instructions in Area 51 on another way to get here.

Bebbilane said...

J/L: Nice Video Blog! That is an excellent song. He is so talented!

Congrats on first Jodi! Jodi, unfortunately I didn't think to close my eyes and listen so I can't even remember what the song sounded like. I was so shocked by the S&M and the sex act.

I really like Adam Lambert but I agree, the song is fitting because he didn't have the success to pull something like what he did at the AMAs without "turning off" some people to his music. It is a shame because he really is talented. The people that watched him on Idol know that but that was his first introduction to the public at large (not just Idol fans, although there are many). I am sure he will be successful no matter the controversy.

Well, I am going to go to Joanne Fabrics and by some stuff for my Mom because she is working today and she can't go get it.


Take care all and have a terrific day!

Beverly

Bebbilane said...

ohh..I put my name..lol. Sorry..habit after writing emails..omg..too funny!

Jodi said...

LOIS - Glad my gift helped!!! ;)

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Oh, and Jodi your comment on my nasal fluids is noted. Me and my snot will stay over here in the corner when we cheer for the Broncos today!

Jodi said...

Good morning BEBBI!! Have fun @ Jo-Ann Fabrics....Sam and I are tackling the mall today. She is in dire need of a new winter coat and we are getting upwards of 14 inches of snow by Wednesday.

Maureen said...

HODI...congrats on 1st, 2nd, 3rd...!! You are soo pretty today!
Glad you had fun yesterday. Cann't wait to meet you in Chicago!

SHIRLEY...I didn't read your instructions, but I had a hell of a time getting here. Blogger has been so poopy lately.

BEBBI...I agree with your sentiments regarding Adam.

Jodi said...

SHIRLEY - Didn't mean to put you in the corner, but I don't have time to be sick right now!!!

Jodi said...

Good morning MO....and thank you!! Chi-town will be a blast!!! Remember, that offer to pick you up in Milwaukee still stands!!!

Jodi said...

SHIRLEY - Thankfully I have the nest bookmarked, so I didn't have any difficulty getting to the comment section!!!

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

No worries Jodi. I have a bubble that I am in over here. Fresh air is pumped in. I have a frig and a port-a-potty(sp). I'm good!

Morning Bebbi and Mo!

Jodi said...

I best get going. Sam will be home soon, and then we are leaving!! I hope it's not too crazy there!!!

Maureen said...

Today is RENEE EVE's birthday. In case she's reading...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RENEE

Maureen said...

SHIRLEY...are you encased in a snot bubble?

DeeDee said...

Morning hooters and hootettes.....

Thanks for that J/L......you know he has said he made a mistake....whether he was forced by his "handlers" is another matter....

I picture this huge glass conference room in L.A. with a large group of these people sitting around a table plotting what eatery or bar he will be seen at next and how he'll walk and talk...who he will be seen with and whether he will wear the black or the really black outfit...lol.....point is...he doesn't do anything spur of the moment....it was planned....you can buy this kind of publicity..

He is having the time of his life and I am happy for him....he is a huge talent. He can sing and he is gorgeous and has anyone noticed how tightly packed the front of his pants always are or is it just me? Again....a HUGE talent....^^

His performance on the AMA's sure had people sitting straight up in their conservative recliners...lol

The kiss was hot....there is just something really sexy to me when a beautiful man kisses another....but that head in the crotch grinding simulation of oral sex was a little too much for American TV.....don't get me wrong...it wasn't too much for me....heavens no....I've seen porn! I was just hoping he would get an erection and bust right through those little rubber pants.....when you put 10 pounds of mud in a 5 pound sack....it could happen.....

Lordie Lordie...all this sex talk has got my zorch heated up...I think I'll go outside and make some steam.....

Jodi said...

DEE DEE - Go cool your zorch off in the snow!!!

bonachichi said...

Well, I see DeeDee's made her point eloquenty. I agree... If I wanted porn, I could have surfed the net. However, I've a feeling all this was planned for the publicity. I'd never have heard of him and clearly, he has talent. Hopefully he achieves HUGE success.

I will have to re-watch the video to see the HUGE talent. Don't want to miss that.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Lynn D said...

Morning Glories!

Yay Jodi got first! She distracted me by Iming on Facebook. That hoochie mama!

Have no opinion about Adam Lambert J/L as I don't follow him much but hey if Madonna can do the girl on girl kiss I don't see why Adam should take flack for his boy on boy kiss.

Got go jump in shower going with my daughter for my once a year Mall experience. I wonder if anyone will lose a shoe?

Jodi said...

LYNN - Yeah, sneaky I know!!! Have fun @ the mall. We just got back....shoes intact!!!

Just_Lin said...

JOdi Congrats on being first! I'm sitting here in my robe drinking coffee and you've already been out to the mall. I am such a slacker! Oh, and congrats on returning with both your shoes. I assume Sam still has hers, too.

Shirley I'm sorry you are still sickly. I'll try not to burst your bubble. ;)

Bebbi I doubt there was anyone in the audiance that was shocked by his performance. It's all been done before and they are all in the biz, one way or another, and understand the theatrics and showmanship of it all. At least he wasn't biting heads off of bats, which was done decades ago.

MO Thanks for alerting us to Renee Eve's b-day.

Renee Eve HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

DeeDee He's been on a number of shows and says he probably got a little carried away and claims that he didn't go that far during rehearsals (thus, getting the AMA's and network off the hook). He is definitely a showman, that's for sure, and I think he was playing it more for the music folks that were there in the audiance. He knows this will blow over. No pun intended. LOL

Oh, he also sings the song in the movie "2012" that is in theaters now. You can find that official vid on youtube, too.

Bonach During the last American Idol show, a bunch of us were voting furiously for our fav contestants. I was definitely in the Adam camp.

LynnD Be careful out there! Try to return with all of your items of dress intact.

Carol You posted way more than you meant to for QOTD. LOL

Just_Lin said...

Hodi In my wildest dreams, I would not think Adam sounded like Liberace, no matter how tightly I squeezed my eyes shut! LMAO!

Dianne/Denver said...

SHIRLEYa: what luck u r bringing the. Broncos today. We r winning by a lot. MONTH this weeks game for is very important to us for u to win so could u. Give ur coach a call? Thanks. BBL

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Oh...yeah...right Dianne, we are winning! Did you see that guy get a goal? He hiked and huddled and blitzed and blocked and spiked and tackled till he scored! WooHoo!!! GO BRONCOS GO!!!!!WOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Tina~in_ut said...

oh my shit, old woman! turn off ur zorch!! He's just a boy~

Jodi~ Congrats on first.....and talking to urself~ I'm still prettier~

J/L~ the vid won't play here.....but I've heard him...ugh~

I'm off to lunch with my cousin....yummy Mexican food~ :D

Zona said...

Good Morning! Oh..wait..did I miss morning? well..damn.. ;)

J/LIN: After ABC threatened to drop him because of the fiasco at the AMAs..I really thought Adam Lambert had ended his career before it had even gotten started..but it looks like he's going to be ok. He really does have a nice voice..and I liked this song. Thanks for video today!

JODI: Congrats on FIRST! You are looking beautiful today! I can't believe you even kept that song..let alone are able to listen to it..do all the cats in the neighborhood disappear when I call? sheesh..

SHIRLEY:

The Drawing Room - 12ft
The Parlour - 12ft
The Dining Hall - 2 x 20ft
The Front Hall - 25ft
The Back Hall - 12ft
The Ball Room - 4 x 12ft
24x 10ft trees for the driveway (12 on either side

I don't think we'll have much trouble with your Christmas tree requests for the party..MR Z is quite the woodsman..and he swings a pretty big axe.. ;)

BEBBI: Adam Lambert is the only one I even remember from this year's AI..and it's only been over a few months! Of course..I CRS anyway.. ;)

Happy Birthday Renee Eve!

MO: Thanks for the visual..ewwwwww... ;)

DEEDEE: I agree that what was seen on the AMAs was probably carefully planned by Adam Lambert's PR people. Are you cooled off yet? ;)

LYNN: Why would you lose a shoe..I know..I'm missing something here..

TINA: Was your lunch as hot as DEEDEE's zorch? ;)

BONACHI: What's the verdict on his talent?

DIANNE: One of the first things Mr Z said to me when I woke up was "The Broncos are winning..the Raiders are losing.." I answered.."So what else is new.." :) for you :( for me, BARB and EBJ..

HI BEAR! :D

Zona said...

There's supposed to be a big storm coming in on Monday..so I've put the flannel sheets on the bed..and I'm making chili! We don't get a lot of storms..so this is an event..we might even have to turn on the heat.. ;)

MO: Nikki sends kisses back..she's doing really well. :)

Zona said...

BEAR: Congrats on QOTD..point noted..LOL!

Zona said...

SHIRLEY: You need Holly berries too? Ok..where do I find Holly..and do you think he'll be willing to give up his berries? ;)

Just_Lin said...

Zona Unfortunately, the AI winner, Kris Allen, is quite forgettable, imho.

whabbear said...

LOL! Hi, Zona!

Shirley's a fan of the Broncos?

Adam Lambert! Dee Dee, I loved your analysis... if you'd been describing a bear, I'd be heading out to the snow myself!

Very low-key day today! We were supposed to see Jackie Beat's Christmas show, but we never made it! I assumed Jim and our friend Matt knew where the hotel is, and they didn't!

Just_Lin said...

Bear And no one was willing to ask for directions, right?

Zona said...

OMG..I just checked the scores..RAIDERS WON!! WooHoo! Wait..I better go look again..brb..

THEY BEAT THE STEELERS! BARB..EBJ..did you see that? I am so happppyyyy!! :D

BEAR: No GPS?

iteach said...

I have no freaking idea who this Adam guy is, this just tells you how out of touch I am with the latest singers.

If they are not the opening act for Neil Diamond, then I probably don't know who they are!

Just_Lin said...

Zona It was a close and exciting game but my 49ers lost today. :(

Jennifer Adam was the runner-up on last season's American Idol.

East Bay J said...

Happy Sunday hooters!

Zona yes I saw that win, can you believe it?

JL sorry bout the 9ers, it was a back and forth game.

Bear why didn't someone do a Mapquest to find directions? I thought he always performed at the same place every year for some reason.

JL I really don't know much about Adam, I don't watch AI and just don't have much interest in him. I saw the performance on the awards last week, I didn't care for it. I just not into that strange stuff. If he'd just sung the song then I probably would have liked it more.

I didn't care that he kissed another man, the crotch thing was a turn off plus I don't like all the make up, guyliner, etc.

I didn't like the performances by JLo, Backed Eyed Pea or Rihanna either for that matter.

I think I'm just stuck in the 70s, give me a good old fashioned Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks concert any day.

It's cold here, I know I shouldn't whine when some of you have snow and zero degrees, but 25-30 at night is C O L D.

MR. E got out our other down comforter last night and put it on the bed. He is the one who usually has on just the sheet, while I am hunkered down with as many blankets as I can get.

Shirley who are you rooting for to win tonight on AMAZING Race?

I am hoping it is the married couple. I don't like the brothers at all, and the "Barbie and Ken" couple are not my favorites either. I would however rather see them win then the brothers.

Lynn D said...

Wohoo I am home from the mall Sanity and Shoes intact!

Dianne/Denver said...

Hi Everyone....SHIRLEY, SHIRLEY....You were the Broncos good luck charm this week. We not only won but we really won!! I think they were so surprised to hear that voice coming from Canada that it pushed them on...I need to ask you to do it one more week.;.next week as we are playing the Colts and they haven't lost a game all year so this would really be a big deal. Hope you got your cough medicine and feel better today too.

Ok ZONE, EBJ AND SACBARB, congratulations on your Raider win. Good job. Now we are watching your Cardinals ZONA and I don't know if they can beat Bret Farve tonight.

TINA; Glad you arrived safe and sound on your "not in Utah" trip. I am thinking maybe that Mexican food burned that cough out of you.

J/L: I wasn't much of an Adam fan on A/I but I think it is just because I don't like the type of music he sings. I liked him when they had him doing my kind of music. I see that the New Year's Eve Dick Clark special canceled him also and so did Jimmy Kimmel. But...he is one of Barbara Walter's top ten people this week and she talked about it on the View and he will stay on the show. I also saw him on Ellen and he was very apologetic. I think he is young and just made a mistake but I think it will soon be forgotten and he will continue to be able to show his singing talent.

We have about 4" of snow today and the roads are not good and it is cold out so we are inside in our sweats watching football, reading the paper and napping...well, my husband is grading in between all these things. I am getting ready to watch the finale of Amazing Race tonight.

BTW, tomorrow night there is a Carrie Underwood Christmas special on if anyone is interested.

Hope you all have a nice evening.

Dianne/Denver said...

EBJ: I don't want the brothers to win either. I liked them to begin with but then they became kind of mean to the others. I do like the Barbie/Ken couple for the reason that they are really good at the game and get along fairly well. I do like the Miss American married couple too though. I always love all the finales. Biggest Loser one is this week too.

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Dianne I'm glad your Broncos won, but it wasn't because this Canadian was cheering for them. I didn't even see the game. The CBS station we get here is from Boston so we got the Patriots game. Sorry. Remind me again next weekend and I'll see if the game is on here.

I didn't get the cough medicine either. I guess this just wasn't my day.

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

EBJ and Dianne I have already seen the final of The Amazing Race. It was good.

East Bay J said...

Di, congrats on your Broncos winning!

I started to not like Barbie and Ken when he made her do that hay roll task. I really thought he should have done it because of the physical strength it required.

There was another thing he did kind of along the same line and I didn't like it either.

I do like her, tho.

Shirley we have about 1 1/4 hours til it starts here, I am looking forward to seeing who wins!

Hi Everyone..

Gotta read the comments..

night.owls.sb said...

Oh its Scirish's birthday? Well then Happy Birthday to you..

Dianne..

Congrats on the win..

J/L..

I did like this song from Adam, I don't think its my type of music tho. I think he will go far actually farther than the winner of AI.. His appearance on AMA's was a little over the top for me. But is def got ppl taking, and that was probably what he was looking for..

Thanks for the SMV today!

night.owls.sb said...

Jodi..

Congrats on First thru Twelve (well I think it was twelve) hope you and Sam got some deals at the mall..

And Happy you got to meet some of the ladies.. I am sure it was fun!

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't posted lately. I have been exhausted from running around buying last minute stuff for my kitchen. Yesterday I spent all day shopping for back splash. I still can't decide. My counter top arrives on Wed. I think I will wait until it is up. Today my son & I shopped for 4 light fixtures,sink faucet,shelf liners etc. He is so helpful. He is saving me money by installing them.
I don't have running water or a sink in the kitchen, so we have been sending out for our food. My hubby has caught a cold and doing nothing but looking miserable!
Tomorrow I have an apptment. more shopping, and I have to sort & fill up my cupboards. My only fun time is working my Island and farms on FB LOL!
Good night all!
You too sweet lurkers xoxox!!
