Idol Quickies: June 30, 2010

2010 June 30

Some (obviously stupid) chorus line/dancer named Angel Reed is probably pregnant with Constantine Maroulis’ child. They met on Rock of Ages. Their monthly expenditures on ineffective hair products will likely cost more than diapers. This is wrong on about 1000 levels, mainly because one should never have a child with a sleazy scumbag who has coerced teenagers into having sex in uncomfortable places (and not the back of a Volkswagon). Why anyone would have sex with that vile loser is beyond me (He has mouth fungus! And his own friends PISS ON HIS MOUTH FUNGUS MEDICATION! This is not someone with whom you want to knock boots) and why you would do it without making him first wrap his member up in a Kevlar condom?

Sure, hard-core Glamberts think their behavior has no effect on what people think of them outside the Idol Bubble, however, The Washington Post found their psychotic barrage of comments in Chris Richards’ review of Adam Lambert’s DC show hilarious enough to devote an entire post to their insanity on their Click Track blog. Like us, Richards’ really enjoyed this one:

His energy, his band and dancers, my fellow fans’ energy – what a great love bubble! I wear both my Crocs and my glitter proudly.

And the hits don’t stop coming!

As an addendum to my previous post, I also find that the majority of bashers fall into three categories: homophobes; fans of other “Idols” who have not been as successful; men who are threatened by the way woman go crazy over this fabulous gay man. If you even try to say Adam does not have an incredible, unbelievable, once-in-an-era voice, you have no credibility and are laughable.

Larry King announced his retirement yesterday and 100 sad, washed-up trainwrecks shed a tear. Who would now be the ones to interview them? Let’s hope Piers Morgan (Britain’s Got Talent / America’s Got Talent) institutes a bit of class if he is, indeed, the man who takes King’s place. Although I’m still unconvinced it won’t be Ryan Seacrest, as Ryan Seacrest will be broadcasting to the masses 24 hours a day at some point in the near future.

Kelly Clarkson will not be playing Minneapolis on Lilith Fair. If you’re of Nordic heritage and have a whimsical Northern US accent and were planning on attending the 90s mellow-girls-with-guitar revival festival, please wipe the tears from your Birkenstocks. (Although if I had a ticket to that show, I would likely cancel it as that shrill little midget Dixie Chick is taking her place.)

Michael Sarver is doing something music-related for the Special Olympics. Take note, former Idol contestants. If you dig that Jesus fella and hustle hustle hustle, you might get a modicum of work after the show.

Michael Lynche got a haircut. Thought you should know.

Josiah Lemming got a booty call. Thought you should know that, too.

Jason Castro ate some chicken. He’s a big Tweater. I wish he would just cop to taking a big bong hit sometime.

Our beautiful La Princesa del Mariachi Allison Iraheta is filming a video for Don’t Waste the Pretty! Here is a behind the scenes sneak peak.

    Woohoo! Since the LA Times saga, we now have the Washington Post chipping in on the craziness of sparkle cows. Wonder how long it will take for New York Times to jump on the bandwagon? It’s my first time seeing journalists report on obsessed fans’ comments, which in turn generate even more craziness LOL! Gosh have such a thing ever happened before? If not, sparkle cows should really feel proud of themselves for setting a precedence.

  • MissMyEm

    Adam Lambert is arguably the sexiest man in the entertainment industry today. Just one short article written by Allegra Huston in June of last year titled “What Is It About Adam Lambert?” generated 24,398 posts by women
    confirming their feeling of attraction to this stunningly gorgeous and talented young man.

    O-M-G!!!!!!!

    This woman seriously, seriously needs help. Or a white jacket.

    • alicat10025

      This woman is completely out of her mind. for as many people who find him attractive there are those who find him repulsive. (OMG, is she going to come after me now for saying that?!)

        Quick, run & hide, alicat10025! Climb a tree or scale a wall that can’t be scaled by croc-wearing glittercows!

      My favorite part:

      “We have yet to decipher all of the emotions triggered in the subconscious level of the human brain. It is not all sexual; there is a primitive primal level that evokes the tigress defending her young. Beware any reviewer that gives unwarranted criticism. This growing body of fiercely loving and protective fans is a force to be reckoned with.”

    • CayKat

      She writes about Adam kicking the Dildo during tour:

      ” This was not a wimpy, sissy, androgynous kick”

      I am now convinced this woman was lobotomised.

      • CayKat

        This was a reply to the article that Deez linked.

      • jukejoint

        Has anyone pointed out yet how very homophobic that statement is? Assuming that a gay man would kick a dildo in a wimpy, sissy or androgynous manner, I mean. Yes, Kerry. Gay men’s leg muscles work the same as anybody else’s…

        • ross

          Thanks, jukejoint. I was thinking the same thing. Isn’t the whole piece in that same vein?

          • jukejoint

            Why, yes, it is. Go figure.

      • On The Edge

        She writes about Adam kicking the Dildo during tour:

        ” This was not a wimpy, sissy, androgynous kick”

        All of a sudden, every special teams recruiter in the SEC’s ears perked up.

    • deez

      I’m not sure Adam would qualify as even a Gamma or Delta male. I think the most appropriate Greek letter for Adam would be “Mu.”

      • Pandora

        Isn’t it typically other males who determine which is the alpha? They fight it out amongst themselves, etc.

        Somebody should tell Kerry that the women don’t get to make that decision.

      • ross

        “Mu”, pronounced “moo”?

        • deez

          ziiinngggg.

        • ross

          She writes about Adam kicking the Dildo during tour:

          This is what would have been the response if Kris had kicked an object into the crowd:

          I guess Kris doesn’t realize that his actions endangered several people in the crowd. Including a woman in a wheelchair sitting next to me, who just missed getting hit in the arm. “Thank God that missed me,” she said. “That’s the arm I play the slots with. What’s wrong with that little monkey-faced bastard, anyhow?”

          In fact, if it hadn’t been for the quick thinking of Adam Lambert, who rushed out into the crowd when the dildo was kicked, and caught it just as it was about to hit an adorable five year old Kris Allen fan in the eye, Kris’s career would be over now. Instead of a year from now, that is.

          • deez

        Genius!

    • jazz

      Apparently she’s deleting any comment that doesn’t contain wholehearted Lambert-worshipping! I wonder how many she has deleted thus far?

      • deez

        I noticed that too!!!! All the lulzy ones disappeared, and were immediately replaced with sockpuppet comments!!!! lol!

      • Salleyanne

        Well she got two of mine.

    • nobunnyearshere

      I left a comment, which I know she will delete. So I’ll put it here, if that’s OK with TI.

      “What absolute drivel. Don’t you lunatics SEE what you’re doing to your precious GlamOne’s career? He’s becoming a laughingstock because of clowns like this imbecile KKolsch who is not a journalist or a rational human being but a loon who can spout off gibberish and have the sparklecow herd moo in unison. Honestly, I used to laugh at you for your idiocy, but now I just see how sad and pathetic you all are.

    After a (very) short respite from the crazy….she’s baaaaaaaaack!

    • rehabilitard

      Ha! I just wanted to post it.

      “Adam kicked at the security guard and as the guard moved out of the way Adam incorporated “get out, get, out” into his lyrics and then came back and in fierce rock & roll fashion told the Glambert to “Take my picture bitch”.”

      It is the moo of they day in tard land.

      “…you know this “Big Ole Tough Security Guard” is probably going to have to secretly quit his job. He is probably getting razed so hard by his fellow employees it is a distraction to the job. HaHa you got your @ss kicked from Planet Fierce by non other than ADAM F’n LAMBERT- ROCK GOD!!!!!”

      • J

        In what universe are women attracted to a man that is physically aggressive and rude rather than firm and commanding while still managing to be polite and charming? All of those traits that she lists as appealing turn me off to a guy. Kicking someone out of the way, calling a woman a bitch and ordering her around, refusing to compromise or apologize. Yeah, exactly what I’ve been looking for in a man.

    • JaneRochester

      Oh. My. God. My reptilian brain just curled itself into a tiny ball and is hiding under a rock.

      • old bat

        You’re just intimidated by his alpha-maleness!!!111eleventy-one!

    • caspar

      And still calling herself a lawyer, I see.

      Love that she footnotes her fevered ravings as if it were some scholarly research article.

      • deez

        It cracks me up that she uses HER OWN BOOK as reference material! LOLOLOL!!!!!!

        Hahaha. I’m going to write a delusional book, then I’m gonna write a delusional series of articles based on that delsional book! She gets further and further from reality with each passing hour.

        • dixiegal88

          This woman obviously has no friends. You know the ones that can slap you across the face like Cher in Moonshine and say, “Snap out of it.” Delusional doesn’t even come close. Can someone be glamlusional?

          • ross

            I still can’t believe she threatens critics with retaliation from the Glamherd.

            I also liked this:

            “he has traveled around the world, read books and enriched himself intellectually.”

            He’s read books. Imagine that.

          • Pandora

            He traveled through Europe on a tour of Hair… and he said that during that time he took drugs and went to sex clubs. Was that intellectually enriching?

            Moonshine? Moonshine? Moonshine?

            HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

            MOONSTRUCK!

          • JaneRochester

            I believe the word is “glamoosional”.

          • On The Edge

            I believe “Moonshine” was the sequel; you know, when Loretta and Ronny moved to West Virginia to open a pizza parlor but discovered illegal hooch was more profitable, and their special batch proved to be an aphrodisiatic elixir to the mountain folk?

          • jukejoint

            Mooooonshine? Mooooooooonstruck? Coincidenza?

  • JaneRochester

    I heard that the Courtyard Hounds were just a side project for The Sisters. If they’ve kicked Natalie’s ass out of the picture, that’s pretty delicious. I want le scandale!

    It’s funny, but I’ve always liked the Chicks. In small doses. As a chick who plays the banjo, I kind of have to, ya know? Then this weekend, the kid and I were driving back from college orientation (6 hours of nuttin’-but-prairie killmenowpleasethankyou) and she pulled up “Taking the Long Way.” I didn’t know it was a two-disc set, and by the time the 17th or so song started playing with Natalie still wailing/whining away, I was about ready to chuck the iPod out the window and go join the Reagan reds.

    What I learned this weekend: 3 DC songs in a row is all I can handle.

    • dixiegal88

      Ha. Moonshine had to have been a freudian slip….you need lots of mooooonshine to read KK’s article.

  • CayKat

    Constantine has viable swimmers? ewwwww!

    and where is BlackListed? I am starting to worry.

  • Mugsy

    Constantstain knocked up someone?! But, he’s a walking, talking, sterotype of a Greek man joke. Anyone who doesn’t know what I am hinting at….I have heard that his preferred method of sex could result in a sexually-transmitted disease, but would not result in a pregnancy…

    Hey, I say, good for Sarver. He’s helping Special Olympics, and will sing a song which is a tribute to a great lady, Eunice Kennedy Shriver.

  • erinnthered

    I’m really starting to like this Chris Richards. The Ombudsman comment made his list! There were a lot of good ones left out. Probably to avoid mocking the easy targets.

    Did Josiah ever release his album?

    Looking at the girl, I can’t say I’m surprised she’s with Constantine. She doesn’t look too bright to begin with.

  • erinnthered

    Hey, I like the shrill little midget Dixie Chick! My mother actually tried listening to a country song to support her. They’re from the same home town. (Lubbock) Also, her husband is Adrian Pasdar, and I just can’t hate on that. Heard nothing but good things about them from when they lived in Austin.

    When did people decide Natalie Maines was awful? I missed the memo. Most Texans love her. Well…the ones who don’t live up Dubbya ass do. I do.

    I guess I also prefer the more bluegrass style too. I’ll check out Courtyard Hounds. I’ve heard about them, but not heard them. Not a big buzz that I remember. Maybe a lot of the Texan music community went with Charlie Robison in the divorce? :/ He’s pretty well loved.

    • OvenMitt

      I have this feeling that Natalie isn’t the problem at all. I recall, long, long ago, watching some life story-type show about the Dixie Chicks (pre-Dubya fallout), and the sisters were discussing the former lead singer they had. This was before the fame, before Natalie joined. They both agreed to kick the original lead out of the group because she wasn’t commercial enough and they wanted the chance to make it big. They said it was a “majority rules” situation. That always stuck with me, and I wonder now if they didn’t have another one of those “majority rules” votes about Natalie. I mean, how are you gonna win against two sisters? You’re not. Natalie’s big mouth got them blackballed from country music, so the sisters blackballed her.

      Or at least that’s how it went down in my cynical little mind.

  • J

    Constantine give me goosebumps and not the good kind. He’s just so smarmy and greasy. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to have sex with him.

    I wonder if the Glamberts will ever learn that the ott defense of their idol does nothing to help him or themselves. I can understand wanting to stick up for your favorite. But wouldn’t it be best to just sit back and hope that Adam becomes successful enough to prove them wrong?

    • BettyBlue

      Don’t give them any ideas. I’d like them to stay that way — an endless source of free entertainment. I watched Karate Kid a couple of days ago and I didn’t derive as much pleasure from it as I do from the glamberts.

  • OvenMitt

    I think that Big Mike shoulda let his hair grow rather than cut it. Exposed neckfurters are so unattractive.

    • et

      OK, “neckfurters” just about caused me to drown my keyboard in soda. Ha!

      mmmmm, neckfurters.

    • JaneRochester

      OMG. Neckfurters.

    I’m struggling over the Crocs thing. Why Crocs??? Who could possibly believe that this is acceptable concert attire? For gardening or walking around a public swimming area, sure…if you must. But at a concert????? Has this been organized as a fan thing or do many of his fans just happen to like Crocs?? I don’t understand…

    • OvenMitt

      It’s because Crocs are most comfortable on Sparkle Cow hooves. They are cushiony and wide, and like walking on a glittery cloud.

      • Blue Eyes

        Yup, I would imagine Crocs are comfortable to wear at a concert. Remember, we’re talking about middle-age and probably large women who have a hard time standing for long periods of time.

        • OvenMitt

          Yup. There’s probably fallen arches and hammer toes and bunions and cankles galore.

          • http://topidolblog.com TopIdol

            They’re called galmunions and glamkles, dammit!

          • Dickory Dock

            And glammer toes.

          • et

            *Snort* – glamkles. Stuff those glamkles into those bejeweled and bedazzled crocs, baby!

            Uck. Why would you wear crocs to a concert?!

        • Burgundy LaRue

          Hey, don’t put Crocs on all us fatties. I refuse to wear them on principle, and I’ll wear nearly any kind of shoe so long as they’re comfortable to my wide, flat feet. But I draw the line at Crocs. Darn things are so ugly–they’re only good for wearing to empty the trash.

        • Dickory Dock

          Ha! Reminds me of Doctor Preobrazhensky bitching to Dr. Bormental about not being able to leave his overshoes by the back door any more.

            Mikhail Bulgakov!

        • Dickory Dock

          rehabilitard, I think I love you. Have you ever seen the film adaptation? It’s great, and surprisingly made under the Soviets.

          I adore Bulgakov. And Turgenev. And Tolstoy. And Chekhov, Pushkin, Akhmatova, Gogol. Just never make me read Dostoyevsky again. The man is mad. I read an essay by Nobokov where he (very genteelly, mind) ripped into Dostoyevsky, and I may have cheered out loud. (I should straight up admit to owning both his Lectures on Literature and Lectures on Russian Literature. See? Total geek.)

          Wow. I’ve overexposed you all to my true tardly character. I shall leave you with a link to my favorite Russian cartoon and be off to wallow in my shame.

          • mtlfan

            that’s not literature but it’s said that a picture woths a 1,000 words… anyway that was an acto on Ukraine got talent. I was super impressed and thought you’d like it:

            Dickory Dock, the feeling is mutual, hedgehog in the fog is my favorite cartoon too! (!!111!!!!) I didn’t know anybody even knew about it here. :)
            Yes, I watched “Heart of a Dog” with Yevgeniy Yevstigneyev and I loved it. What a talented actor. Bulgakov is truly magical, now I feel like reading “Master and Margarita again. ;)

    • Dickory Dock

      It’s not as painful to their gout afflicted feet?

      I don’t get the crocs thing either. I have a pair that I wear while gardening. It’s so easy to just hose them down after mucking around in the dirt. I tried to wear them to the beach once but they weren’t comfortable at all to walk around in all day.

    • auntieaimee

      Excuse me, they’re glam Crocs. Also known as Glocs or Crams. All the cool kids wear ‘em. You just don’t know anything about fashion. Or “glashion”, if you will…

      • JaneRochester

        “Glocs.” I think you may be onto something there…

    Well, apparently polling of the audience before she makes this all-encompassing statement was not necessary.

    “If you even try to say Adam does not have an incredible, unbelievable, once-in-an-era voice, you have no credibility and are laughable.”

    Therefore and thus, the non-credible, laughable opinions (those in disagreement with hers) do not count anway!

    • jazz

      Oops…this comment was meant to be in reply to magnacarta….sorry!

    • ross

      “If you even try to say Adam does not have an incredible, unbelievable, once-in-an-era voice, you have no credibility and are laughable.”

      Funny how he was unknown until age 27 in that case.

      What needs to happen is for another Adam-type singer to go on Idol or one of those shows.

      • Pandora

        ‘twould be different if the singer with the incredible, unbelievable, once-in-an-era voice had been stuck in Alaska or Mississippi or Montana… but when said singer was regularly performing on stage in the epicenter of the entertainment industry for a decade, was EVERYONE who saw him and didn’t sign him to a record contract a homophobic jellus hater?

      • margie

        Ross he tried out for Glee and told he was to old. Adam has been trying for years to make it. Idol was his last hope I think.

        • Llamakhan

          He tried out for Glee? Was that before Idol?

          • margie

            Yeah. Adam talked about it some interview.

          • old bat

            Yes.

        • ross

          Because incredible, once-in-an-era singers need to try out for shows like Glee.

    • magnacarta

      Oh, glambert ‘logic’… glogic? glamogic? glamagic? I like glamagic. It sounds like wishful thinking.

    • JaneRochester

      My favorite comments in the followup were from “raluca_nem13″ (the H&M-wearing grad student) who managed to cram “abstained,” “vitriolic,” “gratuitous” (those last two in the same sentence), and “musings” into just two postings, but misused “creed.”

      “soniajs” is fun too–”Whom, exactly, do you think you are?” is followed by a comment about how educated she is. Heh.

      For us English majors, this equals a good time.

      Finally, I wish I knew why they’re so bent out of shape about people having their fingers in their ears. When I went to see Voldemort, the sound was cranked up so loud for GRO that it was distorting. I could actually hear them *better* with my fingers in my ears. Mercifully, Krisp turned it down a few notches, or it would’ve been a verrrry long evening for me and my middle fingers.

      • old bat

        I never do live music as a rule. Always too loud. I was very much relieved when I went to see Kray Stollen and the music was at *gasp* non-eardrum busting levels!!! For the NY thing with Adam and Allison, I actually saw that someone mentioned he came out and turned the volume down before his set? That’s awesome.

  • deez

    sleazy scumbag who has coerced teenagers into having sex in uncomfortable places (and not the back of a Volkswagon).

    LOLOLOLOL.

    I see the Glamberts didn’t take the hint and are commenting on the article about the comments. What next? Commenting on the article about the comments on the article about the comments on the article? I like the commenter who said that NOT ONE PERSON who attended that show agreed with Richards’ article. Really now, and why do you think that is?

    • magnacarta

      What I want to know is if that person has asked everyone (and I do mean EVERYONE) their opinion on the show. Speaking for everyone at the concert? pffft

    • saskin

      I just mentioned the same comment. I don’t think they get how stuff works. Actually they definitely do not get how stuff works.

  • Dickory Dock

    Hate to be a pedant but Natalie Maines isn’t filling Kelly’s spot. It’s Courtyard Hounds who are taking her place. That’s Martie and Emily, the sisters who were the other two thirds of Dixie Chicks. They’re actually really good. IMO they’re better without Natalie.

    Greasy Constantine is going to be a father? Poor kid.

    La Princesa is amazing.

    • On The Edge

      YES, I was just about to post the same thing but you did it for me. Martie and Emily were the original Dixie Chicks (the ones with TALENT), along with two other girls. Sony told them to boot the others and brought in whiny-ass Natalie to make them “marketable.”

      • Dickory Dock

        Yeah, and after Natalie they went more “mainstream” and less bluegrass. I know people who are still bitter about that. :)

        I love what Martie and Emily have done. Courtyard Hounds are in heavy rotation on my iPod.

        And welcome back!

    • On The Edge

      Oh, and sorry I was out of pocket for a few days…I was off on a vacation with my gal pals. Missed you guys though!

        I’m so glad Emily and Martie have done something without her. They’re amazing.

          I was trying to be kind. I initially called her a piggie brat, haha.

            Bahahaha! That’s more like it.

            I’ll admit I wanted to snatch her bald when they won their Grammy. That was an amazing opportunity to say something meaningful, and all she could come up with was a snotty “ha ha!” Oh, girl.
