1. Adam Lambert’s crazy performance at the American Music Awards on Sunday. I wanted to do a recap of the entire awards show, but the only thing I keep thinking about is Adam and his many bumps, grinds, and that KISS. Okay, I get it. That was the POINT. He WANTED the water cooler talk the next day. (Adam has arrived! Woo-Hoo!) But I just thought it was too much, too soon. I LIKE Adam. I’ve written about it here and here and here. I was excited for his post-Idol career. I guess I was just expecting to see the Adam I fell in love with on American Idol. But he showed his true colors at the AMAs. I’m sure he’s fine with the fact that he’s now alienated his core American Idol audience of soccer moms. Well, that’s me. Bummer.
2. Oprah leaving her talk show in 2011. I already wrote about it here.
3. The series finale of Jon & Kate Plus 8 last night. I really thought Kate looked great and Jon looked relieved. I’ve watched this series since day one and it is just so sad to see it end this way. A broken marriage, tons of tabloid scandals, and bitterness. At the end of the day, I just hope those eight adorable kids are happy.
4. Entertainment magazines, websites, and television shows that do those “Celebrities Without Makeup” or “Celebrities and Cellulite” pieces. Just…MEAN.
5. And, finally, the fact that I am about to consume a bazillion calories in T-minus two days and counting. (But, oh, it will hurt so good.)
