The Secret is Out: Adam Lambert Adores Me

Adam Lambert came to San Diego last night to visit me again.

What?

He did.

I have pictures and a signed copy of Rolling Stone Magazine to prove it.


But first a couple of photos from the concert:

Adam and Allison singing a duet

Adam belted it out, gyrated, danced,
pranced, queened it up,
and even donned a blue feather boa
(on the stage floor next to him),
God bless him and have mercy on MY soul!
(I'm still having multiple Lambergasms over this performance.)

But before the show . . . we went backstage for a meet and greet. Oh yes, we did:

Laura (with punk clothes and purple hair)
meeting Allison Iraheta, her favorite idol

"Photo op" for Laura with Allison

Laura gave Adam Lambert
her Adam Lam"bark" cartoon.
He was very gracious and sweet with her.

Can you tell that Adam Lambert adores me?
I can.
Totally.
P.S. I don't dye my hair purple for just any man.
P.P.S. I love love love my actual husband for taking this awesome photo.

Here's Adam again, getting a second look at me.
(Adam is holding his Adam Lam"bark" cartoon.)
(And my cell phone number. Heh.)

Does he or doesn't he . . . adore me?
The proof is on the cover of Rolling Stone.
Adam wrote:
"Cheri You Rock! Adam Lambert"
Oh. Yes. He. Did.

From the top, left to right:

my three Mikes (yes, they are all mine); Trish, me & Tom; punked-out Laura

Seriously? The positive energy and affable vibe that I got from Adam Lambert backstage was palpable, and even more amazing considering the grueling pace of this tour and his recording work. This is a remarkable young man, inside and out. I suppose I'm drawn to people whose path might not have been as easy as others, and who still bloom where they're planted. It isn't just that Adam Lambert blooms on stage (and on all that is holy let me swear to you that watching him perform live is nothing short of a privilege and Lambergasmic, of course), but he truly appeared comfortable in his skin when I met him face-to-face, and full of light and grace as a person.

Also? I'm pretty sure that but for the husband, three children, twenty-year age difference, and my girly bits, I'd have a shot with Adam Lambert. Just look at how he looked at me (again):
