| Came across this on the net -- written by someone in the entertainment field whilst the show was still going on......they clarify what Randy Jackson said on Idol........Baby You've Got IT - Quote :
- There's a Magic to celebrities, you can't learn it; it's a gift from God. It's the amazing ability to command a room when you walk in, and when you leave the energy leaves too.
Adam has shown he has that Magic, and this incredible exposure on AI is introducing him to millions of people worldwide. How far he'll go is the definition of success: preparation meets opportunity. With the right management, production and promotion teams behind him (including fans, and this forum is exceptional), and if he continues to make these terrific choices, it will be great to look back at these weeks and remember where it all began.
Not only did Smokey give Adam a standing ovation, but also Berry Gordy did; what an extraordinary compliment. I really think everyone here is part of history.
I've worked in the entertainment industry for a long time, and think it's fair to say that all of us who had the privilege of working with Britney Spears in 1999 before she first hit (when "Baby One More Time" was released, it's a great story how it happened) knew that she was going to be a superstar.
Already after tonight's performance I'm hearing raves from Japan (they are 13 hours ahead of Eastern time so it's 2:30pm Thursday). Last week during the height of drama I posted the following and it's become even more intense.
>>He's one of the hottest commodities in entertainment right now. The amount of passion and buzz he's receiving is incredible as you're seeing on these boards and all over the internet. And it's deserved; look at the range from Brigadoon to the Israeli performances to what he's done on AI. I've been on conference calls this week with US, UK and Japan entertainment executives, and all have been really impressed with Adam and have no doubt he's one of the most marketable contestants AI has ever had. In a sense, he's accomplished his goal... he now has worldwide recognition and familiarity and his future is incredibly bright. I have so much respect for the opportunity AI provides to artists, it really is the world's most valuable franchise and deservedly so.<<
I think all the contestants deserve great respect, but "There's Something about Adam" ... can't wait to see his next choice! | |
