Adam Lambert: Diss the Kiss!
American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert lands at LAX airport and declines to give a kiss to a waiting photographer in Los Angeles on Saturday (November 28).
The 27-year-old San Diego-born singer has had moderate success with his album, “For Your Entertainment”, with sales of approximately 225,000 copies. Adam’s sales were far below that of British sensation Susan Boyle, who sold over 600,000 copies of her album, “I Dreamed A Dream”.
10+ pictures inside of Adam Lambert dissing the kiss…

225k moderate? lol ok
Moderate success? He is poised to outsell Gaga and Rihanna this week. Did you hear how many the “winner” of AI sold last week?…80,000.
Considering that Susan Boyle will probably have the highest first-week sales of any artist this year, I guess everyone only had “moderate success”?
Here’s why: Her target demographic doesn’t know how to pirate music on the internet.
225,000 is moderate especially when most of his fans purchased at least 10 copies each ;-)
225k is amazing for today’s music industry!!!! That will give him the #2 slot on Billboard’s chart beating out new albums from Rihanna and others. Way to go Adam!
JJ Blows - Pure plagiarist
How many did Rhianna sell?
Ok then.
EVERYBODY in 2009 will have sales “far below that of British sensation Susan Boyle…”! Adam’s luck was to be in her week!
I love his album, and it’s doing well so who cares where it places on the chart. I love GaGa & RiRi too. LOL at the papz asking for a kiss
I just love the way you played down his numbers! Let’s see. We know he has sold a minimum of 225,000 units in his first week. With digital downloading and a poor economy, those are very high numbers! You can’t compare them to first week numbers, even 2 years ago.
Kris Allen’s first week - 80,000
Adam is scheduled to come in 2nd to Susan Boyle. Who can possibly compete with QVC? Adam is ahead of Gaga, Rhianna, Mayer, and Shakira for first week numbers. He will be #2! Not too shabby!!!
whoever decided to come out with album the same week as Susan Boyle was destined to be second
howeve, Adam did outsell Rihanna and ladygaga, so his success can be considered far higher than just a moderate. I think he has got a reason to celebrate!
Outsold by almost 3 to 1 by a middle aged blimp BAAAhaaaaaaa!l
He looks like s*h*i*t.
Ain’t gonna lie.
Moderate? If you combine digital downloads with actual sales…..how would that compare with SB? Are SB’s fans demographic assumed to be lees familiar with downloading from the internet? Adam is an incredible and talented siger that will be as famous or more than Elvis! Just give hima a chance….
225,000———————The number of craters on Adam’s face
Moderate sales?? Obviously you know nothing about the music industry, so your opinion is irrelevant.
Adam looks gorgeous, as always.
Moderate success from a mediocre talent. No surprise here.
Moderate success? Get real. Susan Boyle is selling more than Eminen his first week out this year. Meanwhile Lambert is poised to come in #2 with 225K in sales, outselling Rihanna and Kris Allen –who sold a paltry 80K , the lowest ever first week sales for an Idol champ. 225K is a GREAT sales figure for a debut album in this economy.
moderate success the guy sold 225.000 copies in the 1st week !! you call that moderate !! pllllllz don’t make me laugh !! he is so cute here i wanna squeeze him <3

Adam is a relative unknown who is beating Rihanna and Lady Gaga in new album sales. He is also beating the AI winner, Kris Allen, by almost 3:1. Susan Boyle may have the highest selling album of all time, so that is not really a good comparison.
@Isabelle:
An exaggeration, Most people I know only bought one, I ordered one and got two by mistake, but I know someone who will appreciate a gift.
who are you people commenting on moderate success on how many craters does he have on his face or that Susan Boyle is a middle aged blimp what is your problem 1st of all it is more then a moderate success Susan Boyle has captured the entire world on the internet when she sang 1st on that show and she made history worldwide an underdog everyone except the few hatemogers here want someone like her to do well- Adam is a marvelous talent and a great young man an eccentric artist whose fans will love him forever as he will be EPIC so p…. off you nasty people we love Adam for ow he inspires us for his his talent his voice so his success is huge..

@Impressive:
Which is relevant how?
Backlash from his disgraceful gaytacular performance. It is predicted that future sales will fall off SHARPLY.
