[American_Idol_Extra] Adam Lambert Arrested Outside Helsinki Gay Bar

Adam Lambert Arrested Outside Helsinki Gay Bar
12.22.2011
By Adam Rathe
Singer and boyfriend Sauli Koskinen were nabbed by cops for assault
Adam Lambert wasn't taken to jail for Trespassing.

The American Idol contestant and recent Out100 honoree was arrested
outside of a gay bar in Finland early Thursday morning when he and
boyfriend, Finnish television personality Sauli Koskinen, were caught
fighting on the street, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The pair were spending the evening at Helsinki gay bar DTM and
reportedly got into a row in one of the bar's back rooms before they
spilled out onto the street, causing a scene and involving an ex-Miss
Helsinki in their fisticuffs.

They were hauled into a Helsinki jail and were held for questioning
related to four possible assault charges.

According to police, the two were released late Thursday and soon
enough Koskinen was already blogging about the incident.

"Celebrities are people too and fame is not easy," he wrote, according
to the mag. "Love is not always easy either, but it's forever."

Update: Adam Lambert weighs in on Twitter with his mathematical
assessment of the incident.

Re: [American_Idol_Extra] What Scotty McCreery Earns for Winning 'American Idol'

I don't see how you can say they gdt the short end of the stick?  These guys are getting publicity they couldn't hope to get just playing some neighborhood bar or school talent show.  Where else can they get national exposure to millions of people in just a few short months?

 

J Lo, Steven Tyler and other performers on the show put in years of hard work before they got that kind of audience.  What the contestants (those that don't win or get contracts) do with their talent after the show is up to them, but they sure get a good leg-up to their careers.

 

Ryan, Randy, J Lo etc. get paid in the milliosn for the show, and they deserve every penny, based on the salaries of other shows and what they could be earning on tour.

I really wonder what the costs are of producing American idol, and what Ryan, Randy, JLo, and Stephen get paid.  I have an idea it is way way in excess of $250 thousand.  I think I read that Simon Cowell's new The X Factor will pay out $5 Million.  The real performers and life of these shows are the contestants, and I think they get the short end of the stick.  Maybe I am wrong.......

What Scotty McCreery Earns for Winning 'American Idol'

Is winning "American Idol" becoming less lucrative?

This year, 17-year-old Scotty McCreery was declared the winner. He's
now due at least $250,000 in advances for winning the show and
recording the first album.

Because McCreery is a minor, producers had to take his contract to a
judge for approval. (The type of judge that wears a black robe -- not
the one who dances to salsa music on-stage.) It's not technically a
requirement, but most producers do so anyway to avoid any possible
future disputes over the contract's validity.

By saving themselves peace of mind, producers open these contracts up
for public inspection, and so Billboard took a peak at what McCreery
is getting for winning this season. Besides the $250,000 advance,
McCreery also will be earning tens of thousands of dollars more for
granting Idol partners likeness, merchandise and endorsement rights.

The sum is a good figure for someone who was unknown a year ago, but
McCreery might not be doing quite as well as previous winners from
past seasons. A contract submitted to a judge for Season 7 runner-up
David Archuleta revealed he was due to earn $360,000 for an album.
McCreery also seems to be accepting a "360 deal" that pretty much
allows producers and record labels to share in non-music related
revenue like merchandise.

Negotiations over these deals finish before the finalists are
announced. Each year, contestants on Idol host their own private side
competition to pick a lawyer who will represent them en masse. This
year, there were actually co-winners to that prize: Craig Marshall and
Gary Gilbert of Manatt, Phelps & Phillips.

Re: [American_Idol_Extra] Re: Since Jacob is gone, Who Do You Think Will Be The American Idol?

same as with Carrie Underwood, I thought she was boring on AI, but she has done well in Country.  The last guy that won was boring too.  Maybe it should be Boring American Idol in the future.  No one interesting has won in quite a while if ever.

Re: [American_Idol_Extra] Re: Since Jacob is gone, Who Do You Think Will Be The American Idol?

my opinions pretty much mesh with yours.  I don't know why I even watch the show, but I've been watching it since season one and it's hard to break the habit.  I won't be seeing it the rest of this season.  On vacation, driving, visiting etc.  Right now I'm in Vegas visiting my son and his family, too many other things to do besides watch Idol.   Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet.

Right about James!  I think they need to find a better way to judge.  Having it 100% public voting isn't cutting it.  I think I am done watching for this round.

RE: [American_Idol_Extra] Since Jacob is gone, Who Do You Think Will Be The American Idol?

I think James will win too-I dont know if anyone has mentioned it on here before but James has reminded me quite a bit of Adam Lambert most of the season. I never liked Jacob either.

I agree.  James should win, although Loren has huge star quality, and amazing natural talent.  James is so real and sincere.  Everything he does, seems to come straight from the heart.  And he delivers like it's his most important performance ever. 

 

I was never so happy to see someone voted off as I was when Jacob got the boot.  What an arrogant, self righteous, corny, twit!  He over-sang just about everything, and didn't seem to have a humble bone in his body.  Ugh.  I could barely look at the TV when he was on!

Not to seem like a big downer, but the field seems really weak to me, compared to previous years.  I don't think most of the top 10 would have make it to the top 20 in the past.  Not really sure why, but Simon not being there may have something to do with it.

 

Speaking of Simon.  At first I really liked the new panel, but it seems kind of dull now.  Steven Tyler is really quirky and interesting on a certain level, but he just likes everything and everybody!  Kind of the same with Ms. Lopez.  Randy is about the same I guess, but there don't seem to be many surprises or much controversy. 

 

My 2 cents!

 

Gary

[American_Idol_Extra] Jacob Lusk Goes Home on 'American Idol'; Lady Gaga to Mentor?

Jacob Lusk Goes Home on 'American Idol'; Lady Gaga to Mentor?
PRNewsFoto/Zumobi(LOS ANGELES) -- Jacob Lusk got the boot on American
Idol Thursday night, leaving just four contestants still in the
contest.

He sang "A House Is Not a Home" for his farewell song and continued
doing vocal runs after the song was over and as the credits rolled.
Lauren Alaina was in the bottom two with Lusk, but she'll be back next
week.

The top five opened the show with a group performance of The Turtles'
classic hit "Happy Together." Lady Antebellum also returned to
American Idol to debut their brand-new single," Just a Kiss," and
judge Jennifer Lopez took the stage for a highly-produced performance
of "On the Floor" with Pitbull. She also gave a sneak peek of her new
video for "I'm into You."

Speaking of videos, Lady Gaga's video for "Judas" was scheduled to
premiere on last night's American Idol, but it never aired. No doubt
the reason why is because it leaked online earlier Thursday, prompting
Gaga to officially release the video before the scheduled Idol
premiere.

If you were disappointed in the video no-show Thursday night, however,
there may be something even better in store for next week. After
Thursday's show, host Ryan Seacrest tweeted, "I only have one word for
our mentor on @AmericanIdol next week...Gaga." If true, that pretty
much says it all.

On Thursday's show, Seacrest also announced some of the audition
cities for American Idol's eleventh season. They'll be hitting St.
Louis on June 28, Portland on July 2 and Charleston, South Carolina on
July 22. More audition cities will be announced next week.

American Idol's top four return to perform for the nation's vote next
Wednesday night at 8 p.m. ET on Fox.

[Fox_American_Idol] The Best Season Yet!.......???

 

Has this group died?

I started out the season thinking Wow! This group is great! And yet, as much as I like their voices, I have yet to be wowed by their performances past the top 24. What is happening here? None of them seem to be entertaining, and Steve has lost his charm. The show is starting to bore me and I think for as much as it seemed to redeem itself after last year's fiasco, it's headed back to disaster. I think part of the problem is they are not allowing the kids to be themselves. They're giving them WAAY too much coaching, picking how they will sing their songs rather than letting them do it. None of the performances have really sounded original to me. They seem do be singing someone elses style. Danger! Danger!

Where is everybody?
