It's official. I am obsessed with a contestant on American Idol. I mean, I know I had a taste of it last year with David Cook, but they haven't even selected the top 12 yet, and I'm already rooting hard for someone.
His name is Adam Lambert, and my first impression of him was: OMG. The love child of Pete Wentz and Ryan Ross. Seriously...the guyliner, the skinny jeans, the emoboy hair cut. But then he sang. And then I checked out his videos on YouTube. And in spite of him being as (openly) gay as they come, and that I have never been the faghag type, I find him incredibly attractive. (I am also conveniently ignoring the 20+ year age difference.) The fact remains, he has an incredible voice and can sing just about anything. As proof, I have two YouTube vids under the cut. One is him doing a duet in English and Hebrew with an Israeli singer, the the second is him performing his own rock song at a club. You will not believe it's the same guy!
So this is the nice Jewish boy in a suit:

And this is, well, what it is. :-)

See what I mean? I'm predicting Top 2.
I'm interested to see if the TPTB at AI are going to make him hide his boyfriend away. Given that pics are already circulating on the interwebs of him playing tonsil hockey with his bf, it would seem kind of pointless. It's not like the middle-aged Kansas evangelical Christian housewives that voted for Clay Aiken were gonna vote for Adam Lambert anyway.
Some sites on the internet have posted mini-reviews of the (leaked) Green Day song 21st Century Breakdown here, here and here.
Like the official sneak preview reviews, they are mostly positive.
Except for the comments from the acne-prone losers who were still crapping in diapers when Dookie came out. DIAF, as all the kids say nowadays.
Things to do today:
Finish Taxes
Return Library Books
Go to Post Office to mail video and magazine to Barb.
Such an exciting life I lead.
