• 77. Adam either overestimated himself or underestimated AI fans. he cant play both sides. The gay community deserves more. They need someone who is proud to represent them and not somone like Adam who plays both sides in order to achieve fame and fortune just as ricky martin and Clay Aiken did. All you females who think adam is hot.....he woudnt think the same of you. have some pride and self esteem. Dont you think you deserve better than to crush on a guy who woulnt give you a second look!! I predict a future cover of People magazins when adam selectively comes out....however only after he has achieved his own self serving goals. The gay community deserves better someone who will be proud to reresent them. You have no excuse to stay in the closet adam....it is 2009!!!! You are doing this to capitalize off both men and women!! Shame on you!

• 78. Adam, you are fabulous! There are 3 generations of Lambert fans in our family. We will be voting like crazy on Tues. No matter the outcome next week, you are already a winner and an American Idol in our eyes! Thanks for bringing back a little of the playfulness, sexiness and sizzle of the glam rock era. You are quite the entertainer, and your vocal ability is amazing! ;)

• 79. He's a drag?! Funny how this site doesn't mention that he was PERFORMING while this picture was taken. It's not like this is in his everyday wardrobe... And even if it was, it's none of your business, *mutters under breath* douche bags. BTW, this picture is from his own song, Crawl Thru Fire. It's awesome. Even I, a Lamb Skank and a GLambert, was a bit skeptical and avoided it at first, but I have listened to it since then and I'm glad that I did; it's the only song on my iPod that I can listen to several times without getting sick of it. Lam-Baby For The Win!!

• 81. As to #8 sheila's comment....Adam is not pretending or lying??????? What planet are you living on? He won't come out and it is an insult to the gay community. He won't even reresent them because he has sold out. He is self-serving, lying to the public and playing both "teams" in order to succeeed and make money off both of them!!!!

• 82. Wow...back in the 70s..not that there were any TMZ readers / viewers born yet..we went crazy over KISS and Elton John because of the way they looked and acted on stage...it was all about theatrics but the music was what made us keep listening. Sure there were always rumors about Elton John and we didnt care, it didnt matter to us. There were even rumors that Olivia Newton John was a Lesbian..did it stop her success. NO. All of you "haters" out there..and I feel that TMZ is the biggest group of hate mongers out there not to mention a bit hypocritical when it comes to "gay" stories you know what who I mean. Focus in on peoples successes stop hurting and killing the dreams of those people that work hard for success. Celebrate dont hate

• 87. Haters say : "He's gay" SO WHAT? THIS IS SINGING COMPETITION, FOR GODSAKE. Not Who's the Straightest Guy competition..... I'm a conservative moslem who personally think gay is a sickness. But I appreciate talents for what they are and Adam is the most talented singer ever graced Idol. Even if America doesn't acknowledge that, the world has already acknowledged. Adam can start his world tour now and it would be packed.

• 88. Hater say "His CD would not be marketable as it would be full of screams". Have you guys check out his studio versions? They are brilliant, even compared to seasoned multiplatinum singers. Adam knows the different of stage performance and studio versions. On Idol stage, he has to make big impact in 1-1,5 minutes duration of his singing. High notes is one of his advantages over other contestants, that's why he belts out a lot of high notes. In studio version, he tone it down. Those are really beautiful studio version and I can understand why he has more downloaded iTunes songs compared to all the other contestants combined.

• 89. It's really funny to read all the reasons posted by haters of why they hate Adam. Really shows how ignorant and narrow-minded they are. "He's a screamer" Well, ask vocal teachers, that's what they call hitting extremely high notes only few singers in the world could do. Adam can also do passaggio. In this case, Adam has the same level with Pavarotti. "He can't sing" Check out his pre-Idol performances in youtube singing "Is Anybody Listening?", "The Prayer" and the best of all "Come to me, Bend to me" from Brigadoon. If you haters still think he can't sing, I would advice you to check your hearing problem.

• 90. sista toldjah, You have no idea what you are talking about. The other contestants are more of a "professional" than Adam as they have all either recorded an album already that did not sell or have been offered record contracts. Danny Gokey is NOT just a "Church singer" he is the MUSIC DIRECTOR of a church. Not the same thing, but I guess making 100% of your income from singing doesn't count as professional. Adam has been working on music for his entire life, but I would not call having to get jobs in clothing stores between the actual paying music gigs just to be able to pay the bills "making it" in the music biz. But, as I obviously don't know the real meaning of "professional" (just the dictionary meaning) then I have to assume I don't know the meaning of "making it". If you are going to post something derogatory at least have your facts straight.
