I was involved in a chat with Adam last night. I typed up the interview for y'all. I typed it up in Q & A form. Questions coming from various individuals. All answers coming from Adam.


Q: You seem like such a gracious person, how upset were you that you didn't' get the AI title?
A: I was not upset at all. I was really happy to be performing on the finale and happy for Kris, because he is my friend. I feel like being a finalist was winning.

Q: What is your vision for yourself in the next year after the idol tour?
A: I really want to work on an amazing album. While on the tour I plan to be working on songs and collaborating. I am interested in all forms of entertainment, but my first priority is music.

Q: What was the strangest thing that happened to you while participating in AI?
A: Just all of the fans, seeing them get overly excited. For example the streaker in San Diego, it was so funny to me.

Q: Is your eyeliner permanent? If not, what brand of eyeliner is your favorite?
A: No, it is not permanent. That would be too much for me. I use a Max Factor smolder, which is black.

Q: Considering how versatile your voice is, will it be tough picking one genre for a future album? Or will you do a little of everything?
A: I am going to do a little of everything. I think just one genre would be boring. For me it is not really about the genre, it is about the singing.

Q: Were the boots that you wore while performing with KISS comfortable? LOL Cuz they didn't look like it.
A: They actually are comfortable, believe it or not, because they do not have a heel. They are really light weight and easy to walk in. They are fun.

Q: You are extremely talented, my favorite this season!! You will be iconic, who would you say helped you the most in becoming who you are?
A: I had a teacher that was in the audience last night, Lynne Broyles. She was my first voice teacher and helped me to express my art. She created a safe environment and made it okay to be me.

Q: I absolutely adore you and think you are incredible! How did it feel when Katy Perry came out wearing your name on her cape? Did you know she was gonna do that?
A: No, I did not know. I was shocked and so flattered, my mouth just dropped open and I though "No Way!" I thought to myself that if I went home that night, it would have been just fine. I am a huge fan of Katy.

Q: With all the season of AI that have transpired, why did you choose to audition this year and not before?
A: I did not think that I was ready until this year. Previously I was in a band and did musical theater. This year I needed a change and the timing was right.

Q: How do you feel about the tabloids exploiting your personal life?
A: It comes with the territory and there really s not anything I can do about it. I am really confident about who I am and I do not let it bother me.

Q: We simply love you! We are so proud you did so good. Wondering what the tat on your wrist is and represents?
A: It is an Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol and it is suppose to be an eye of protection against negative energy. I got it right when the season started.

Q: What singer/band do you get the most inspiration from, or is it all just plain Adam?
A: It is a little bit of both. A ot of what I do is just go with my gut. But I love music and take things in through osmosis. I was lucky to be able to perform music by some of my favorites on the show. Robert Plant, Jeff Buckley, Muse, Michael Jackson are some of my inspirations.

Q: You always dressed to impress. What was your favorite outfit that you wore?
A: I really like my outfit for "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin. There is a company Skingraft and the designers are friends of mine, they did that jacket and several other that I have been wearing. Including the black leather jacket I wore in the photo shoots. I love clothing so much and it is really rewarding to be able to feature the work of my friends.

Q: What did Kris say to you at the end of "We are the Champions?"
A: I was a really special moment for us. I think he said that was awesome and I said it was an honor to be performing with him. For us it really was not a competition against each other, instead it was a chance to be our best each week.

Q: What's the greatest lesson you will take from this whole experience?
A: For me it is about power of positive thought. I never hesitated to help or support the other contestants, and that made it very rewarding. The more you help each other, the more you will get in return. This experience has confirmed my belief system and I will continue to live my life that way.

Q: Adam thank you so much for your time. Are there any last words for your fans?
A: I just want to thank everyone for embracing something different. I am not your average contestant and it took a lot of courage for people to believe in me. And the courage from the fans fed my courage. I hope everyone is ready for the next stage in which I will become an original artist. Also, I hope people can continue to realize the joy that can be found by being unique and different.
