At this "time" last year

Right before Pesach last year, I saw Adam Lambert perform "Mad Mad World" and with that, he completely obliterated any celebrity crush I've ever had (including Michael J. Fox, Patrick Swayze and David Duchovy). He even usurped my crush on Lin-Manuel Miranda at the time. Pretty powerful stuff, huh? I couldn't stop thinking of him and those thoughts sometimes distracted me during the sedarim. (Not that I'm not already distracted in shul to begin with.) In any case, my crush on Adam Lambert was (and still is) pretty apparent and I wrote this before he even came out. That doesn't change things for me, of course!

It's just a little crush....

I have crossed over to the dark side....of American Idol, that is.
Last year, I had a crush on Michael Johns and then he got booted off and I suddenly lost interest. Not because he got booted off but because he wasn't around as much and that he also kept me from noticing how HOT David Cook was.
This year, it is different. I mentioned in a previous entry titled "My Latest Crush" that I had a thing for Danny Gokey (2/17/09). Then I started thinking about Adam Lambert in a different way. And when he sang "Mad Mad World" last week, it just sealed the deal. I have been constantly daydreaming about him (and had an interesting night dream too). I just feel like I'm mentally cheating on Danny. I still adore Danny, but he doesn't make me blush as much as Adam does these days.
I have heard rumors that he is gay, but that would probably make sense given my history. :)
Anyway I had to get this out of my system. Thanks for listening.

Follow up: This post was written to livejournal. I wrote one more minor little post after that and haven't posted there since. I really like blogging here much better at this point in my life. :)
Initially, I did like Danny better than Adam. I sympathized with his story and thought he was genuinely adorable and had a great voice. I actually thought he would have been Adam's main "American Idol" competition instead of Kris.
Of course, I still have a huge crush on Adam and I listen to his CD almost every day!
