MSNBC vs Adam Lambert and Twilight
by Amelia G : April 14th, 2009
So Linda Holmes of MSNBC just posted an article where she called FOX’s American Idol front-runner Adam Lambert “self-indulgent and not particularly creative”. I know FOX and MSNBC are competitive with one another, but I just think Linda Holmes is way off-base. She goes on to say:
“But what, exactly, is the Adam Lambert constituency of the future? He would be popular with fans of … what? The judges seem to think that the answer is “Twilight,” but what kind of sense does that really make? . . . But before anyone goes anointing him some kind of highly marketable future star, take another look at that performance of “Ring Of Fire,” and ask yourself whether you’d hear that on the radio.”
First off, I feel like Twilight and Adam Lambert are two of the only major mainstream pop culture phenomenons of the new millennium which actually are made for an incredibly underserved demographic. When I look for Blue Blood appropriate subject matter which is new, Twilight and Adam Lambert are two of the only things on the radar there. The Twilight soundtrack has been in the Billboard top 10 for twenty-two weeks now. Carter Burwell’s freaking score for Twilight entered the Billboard charts five weeks ago and is still hanging in there. So, if MSNBC doesn’t see the relation between Adam Lambert and Twilight and what a lot of people would like to . . .

Just my guess
Just my guess, but……
…………..
……………….
……………………..
in a couple of years, there will be maybe 30 ok maybe 40 people who are HUGE fans of …what was her name…. Linda … Linda who?
o yeah, Linda Fox from MSNBC who hates Fox stuff…….
o no, shes John Holmes sister or cousin….. sorry.
anyway, in a couple of years, no one will really remember anything she ahs said, or bogged (thats a slow blog to china) or maybe even posted on some real website somewhere.
and, as someone who has one of these Phenoms in his house….. someone who may hit the Idol fever and just Surf the wave from then on….
I have to say, this kid has talent. He has IDOL talent.
He will also have fans …….thousands and hundreds of thousands of fans and he will have a marketing engine and machine behind him, and he will be incredibly successful.
She won’t
but then,
thats just my guess.
