It didn't or doesn't need AL to promote it, is how I see it. If Bohemian Rhapsody wins Sag Awards tonight ( extremely unlikely it will win I think, but I ate my words before LOL ) will AL hop on that bandwagon too?

Well maybe Brian & Roger thought any publicity is good publicity,

Adam putting that on instagram immediately ended up all over being tweeted by media outlets and articles done about it so it garnered a pretty large amount of interest and that can only be a good thing from their point of view if it gets people interested in buying/streaming it.

Why would Adam need to jump on any bandwagon when like I said every move he makes professionally gets picked up by media and written/tweeted about, he's definitely not short of publicity, he was all over media simply for being at the Lady GaGa opening night of her residency, just like he was for the Wicked appearance, the fact he's gonna be in the playmobil movie, the award he presented the other month etc etc so if he publicizes the movie and it sells more because of it I can't see any problem with that.

Noooo Rockchic, no publicity is good publicity. The heat about Bryan Singer is as bad as it can get, to use that as an an extreme example.

I've seen and read about AL getting press after he let it be known that he actually was in the movie. You know I'm a Queen fan first, so no offense, but I'd rather have seen the Live Aid part to get press instead.Yes, Live Aid got some press I'm glad to say.
I've been following the ups and downs of the biopic for years. I really liked some of what I saw and not others. The things that were wrong drove me nuts, but when it was good...I think it was very good.

Found the pic I think - http://rockandrollgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/mercury-lambert.jpg

Ladies and Gents: On the left side you see a twat, a sad no talent copycat. On the right side you see a legend, composer, Musician.

You would not need any introduction even if you just looked at those pix without knowing anyone ;)

My advice: Look into the collaboration and get to know AL, before you start spreading negativity without knowledge. And if you don’t want to, because you believe, that it’s just not your thing, that’s also fine. Listen to Fred, there might still be enough for you to discover.
But leave the collaboration alone. Most Queen fans do enjoy it. Lambert is a good man.

I agree, I can understand some people not being into it or not liking Adam's voice even but I really don't get the hate, he's nothing but respectful of Freddie and the band, he's a genuinely nice guy and IMO it must have been really daunting to even get up there in the first place and he does it with grace even doing the no Freddie speech which I can't imagine that many people doing. Just out of curiosity did Paul ever do anything like that I haven't really watched much of them together?

Sealion js back - another Glamtart prick acting like a knowitall. Lameturd is an abomination and QAL is completely laughable. Live with it you sad twat

Just ignore me , you old fucker. I won’t stay for too long in this shithole.

Just one thing:
I‘m always wondering, how someone like you, who can at least talk in a civilized manner on the German Fanclub Board, isn’t able to do so in English. Here you only sound like the last asshole.
For all the readers here: No, runner isn’t that evil. He just behaves this way on English speaking fanboards. And yes, he can’t stand anything Q+AL.

Every shithole deserves his language. BTW the mod banned me in the german forum haha

More from Italy — no half mic:

Of course, you would think and say that Brian passed the crown to AL. :-/

Back under the bridge, runner!

Well obviously the Bryan Singer thing is awful and this latest thing has really screwed things up with GLAAD pulling the nomination but that isn't anything to do with Adam and him putting it out about the cameo and like I said Brian also posted it so I think it may even have been a studio decision since the pic is clearly a still.

I'm the same as regards the movie, I loved parts and other bits not so much but overall I'm glad it's been so popular and just hope this Singer thing doesn't screw things up too much.

Haters gonna hate, no matter what! It is useless to try to discuss with these people rationally. Even for Icy, I am surprised. She always makes everything Adam does tacky and bigging himself up. I assume it was probably Brian and Roger who decided when and how to release the cameo and that was the best moment for the most publicity. There had been talk about a cameo for months and Adam's fans were dying to know. It is also funny that so many didn't realize who it was. Just like the picture released last week of Brian making a very quick appearance in the movie. It is all part of strategy and maxing out the return from the movie. Once again I don't think Adam makes those decisions. Yea, some people will buy it for the cameo, but I think many fans were buying it because it was a Queen movie and they support the new and old version of Queen. I sometimes wonder who the better fans are. I am sure Brian and Roger would be appalled at te vitriol here and wouldn't claim any of you as fans.

Adam in no way imitates Freddie on stage. He does his own thing which he has been doing since his first tour. Every lead singer of every band I have ever seen struts around with the microphone and leans into various other band members on the stage. Wow, you people are really looking for stuff to criticize. I find it unbelievable myself. Adam is his own man and he doesn't need to act like or be like Freddie and he has said that many times. He wants to do the shows in his way but remain true to the original without copying him. He certainly isn't a clone like Martel, who Icy talking about very glowingly for her. He is the one who apes Freddie, but no complaints about him. I have said this a hundred times, but you people give everyone in the world a pass, but you criticize Adam for the same thing. The hypocrisy here is just astounding.

Glamberts knew he had a cameo...bit of an open secret. If he made it in the film was another thing altogether. I'm not knocking at him here for even appearing in the film, but how AL let it be known he had a part after it won two major awards. To me that is a bit tacky, IMO.

And about 3 are hating on him, meaning there are more who like him -according to your calculations. ;)

To be precise: SOME diehards ignore him. A dozen go around and hate on him online.
Most enjoy the show. While doing so, some like Adam, some don’t. But usually he doesn’t take away from the party to celebrate Queen and their music!
:)

I think Singer...and only Singer ruined chances for the biopic to wn Oscars. The things I've read these last few days...holy hell. Not good.

One can certainly tell/see the abombanation that is Adam Lambert, without attending a live concert, ever hear of...... streaming videos, online? I know that you have...

I haven't been here long enough to call you a troll outright, so, I'll take the word of others, who should know.

About Bohemian Rhapsody, yep he messed up the lyrics three nights in a row. So, it wasn't just a one time thing, or a song he's never sang before.
And yes to the glamberts here, I know Freddie messed up at times too.
As for the coronet, I don't think I will be able to to like that. That is tacky, maybe the most tacky Q+AL moments ever.

Yeah the shit well and truly hit the fan with that, thankfully he's took down all the Bo Rhap stuff off his instagram and distanced himself but the damage is done so not sure what their chances of an Oscar are, doubt the movie has a chance but hopefully Rami might still be in the running.

LOL: Your favorite topic - Adam messed up the lyrics of BoRhap 3 times. How often did we discuss that?

Maybe we should start to discuss, how often Freddie fucked up Radio Gaga? And it was fun, when he did, because it was special !
You know, we can stay positive and talk about, how much fun we have at the gigs. Or that Adam as a guest was able to sing the lyrics correctly the other 190 (?) times -although that’s rather boring. :D
