still adamazing...

it has been about a month now when American Idol had its season 8 finale. unfortunately, my bet Adam Lambert was only a runner-up. honestly, i was never shocked of Adam not winning the competition. when Ryan Seacrest shouted: "Kris Allen", i had no reaction at all. i sat there and just stared at the TV, watching Kris's reaction and Adam congratulating him. sure it's a bit of a shock, but i was prepared. expected the unexpected.

a day after that, Hollywood began to post, top of their stories, about the 'shocking' Idol results. as for me, i never really cared that much, because i know Adam's only at the pre-natal stage of his career. looking at the future and the great opportunities ahead of his Idol journey.

then the gay issue thrived on once again gaining so many speculations from showbiz analysts. Adam, apparently, is still unmoved and is still holding on to his 'I am what I am' philosophy. his stronghold faith to his self doesn't reveal a narcissistic behaviour, he's just showing off his true self, he's just 'here for the music', to quote Paula Abdul. his talent matters most. and i admire Adam for his honesty and courage despite these issues. the recent issue of Rolling Stone revealing his sexuality was never a surprise. it served as the much-awaited icing to complete the cake. a confirmation.

i wish Adam all the best of luck in pursuing show business. he's still my Idol, he'll still amaze me with his vocal intensity and confidence on stage. he's still ADAMAZING...
