Do you think WNTS googles and finds out little forum and uses our opinions to calculate their ratings? That would be funny.

The current tarding on MJ's is going like this:

MooseCrew: This just in! Degrassi Cast will be at the MMVA’s! Also, We’re hearing Adam Lambert might perform, MIGHT! Keep checkin
adam also has a tour apperance in canada the day before the Much Music awards-so looks like this is most likely happening!
Nice could be…MMVA’s are held in Toronto on 6/20, and Adam has a tour performance in Toronto on 6/19. MMVA’s are Canada’s equivalent to our Video Music Awards. Adam’s also nominated for his WWFM video.

I used to think Canada had better taste in music than we did...

What, the country that produced Nickelback and Justin Bieber?

Kidding.

Well, the rest of his album is my musical nightmare, but I like WWFM. And it is a hit. So, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Adam at the MMVA's (not that I'm going to watch), especially if he has a show the day before in Toronto.

Ever since the "Adam Lambert revival" on AI, I feel like I've had enough Adam to last me a year. I can't stand the tarding on MJ's blog any more. And I don't like WWFM. I'm not an Adam fan and I'm just tired of hearing about him. I don't care!

I try to stay away from the places that talk about him. Makes not thinking about him (and his more obnoxious fans, mostly!!!) way easier. I even stopped reading the thread on DCO about the sales of other Idols because they were always talking about Adam (not in a positive way, mind you, but even that was too much).

I'm also fed up with their creepy, immature attacks on Kris. I don't know what to do except get away from all of it. I rarely spend much time reading MJ's blog any more. The Kris thread on TWoP sucks, because it's invaded by creepy Glamberts who want to make it hard for some nice fans to just enjoy a guy and his music. I'm tired of them taking over the comments section of every article about Kris. And I don't give a flying crap whether Adam is an AI judge or runs for president.

Yeah, I know what you mean, missaddicted. Whether the talk is anti or pro Adam, I just can't stand hearing about him any more.

I'd love to have Kris news, you know like single, tour, etc, but I don't. Except that we should have videos tomorrow from his gig with Keith Urban tonight!

Cook news?

First, the WTF? news: apparently, he co-wrote a song called No Reply with our dear Kara DioGuardi (probably during the writing sessions for his first album) that's going to end up on the re-release on Frankie Negron's latest album. Who's Frankie Negron? He's a salsa singer from Puerto Rico. I'll be curious to hear THAT.

Also, for the second year, Cook will run in the Race For Hope in Washington DC, on May 2nd. The money goes for Brain Cancer Research. His team has topped their goal of 100,000$ for the second year, which is really amazing.

Should I dirty up your palate? Feel free to skip..

Actually I've always thought the MMVA's were the reason they pushed Adam so hard in Canada -- and by they I mean the CTV/Much Music/CHUM media group. They wanted him at the award show so to do that they had to make him a hit here. Not that the song isn't good, because I like it and I like the album. But that's the reason for the pimping here. No other reason makes sense. Especially since they didn't play anything by Kris -- like anything for months. When the DJ's on the CHUM morning show liked Kris better during Idol and are usually first on the Idol bandwagon? It's the only thing that makes sense. And having Adam on the MMVA's explains pretty much everything in regards to CTV/CHUM/Much Music.

Kris goes to Washington article - quite a nice one actually.

Idol Winner Takes Haiti Passion to Congress - Washington Whispers (usnews.com)


And OK magazine has a picture of Kris and Katy on the lazy river thing in the Bahamas. It's actually a different picture.. and much more flattering of Katy. They look.. well yes, they look cute. LOL

If you go to Just Jared this is one of the advertised links at the side of the page.

Kinda cool. A link to the UN IGB with Kris and David.

8O Soooo new version of the Truth streaming on Kris's website.

They added Pat to the part I liked the best. Curse them. I don't know what the purpose of adding Pat was. :roll:

I do like how they describe the song as already a classic on his website. Cause yeah.. sure, why not...

Thanks, SleepinIn! Surprised you didn't mention that the anchorman said some of Kris's Haiti footage was supposed to be shown on IGB. Obviously, reputable parties informed the media of that. Apparently, that was still the expectation it was going to be shown, that close to showtime. When Kris was hosting the watch party, he probably was expecting to see the footage! Ugh.

Actually I've always thought the MMVA's were the reason they pushed Adam so hard in Canada -- and by they I mean the CTV/Much Music/CHUM media group. They wanted him at the award show so to do that they had to make him a hit here.

Sounds right. Of course, they probably could have had him on the show anyway, but this way, he has a nominated video (I think). The whole thing has always seemed a little fishy, anyhow.

Okay, I just went over there. Haven't listened yet.

That (the description on the website) isn't worded at all like an announcement of a new single. You know? Is it the single or not? I'm thinking not, right now.

That's just not how a single is announced though. Singles are just announced. "This is the single." This just sounds like a feeler.
