Oh, boy, this might take awhile.
Personality
He's a jerk. He's self-absorbed and thinks that he can do anything, and anyone who disagrees is just a "homophobe". Below, I have posted a video of him at one of his performances, and you’ll see what I mean. There is also his reaction to the reaction of the audience at the AMAs. He was quoted in the Rolling Stones magazine about his performance: "Female performers have been doing this for years—pushing the envelope about sexuality—and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out. We're in 2009—it's time to take risks, be a little more brave, time to open people's eyes and if it offends them, then maybe I'm not for them." What he was basically saying is that it was the critics' faults that they thought his performance was inappropriate. I also found it odd that he said that "women have been doing this for years", acting like women have never kissed on stage and everyone freaked out about it. *cough cough* Brittany Spears and Madonna *cough cough* Also, doesn't seem childish of him to say "the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out"? Well, of course. Not everyone is used to seeing two men kissing (and grabbing each other) on stage. That’s just using logic. Geez, Adam, get over yourself! Plus, it’s not very mature to flip off someone just because they didn’t like your performance!
Voice
Adam can hit high notes, low notes, and every note in between perfectly and he has the strength to hold those notes out. I have heard him do some amazing stuff. Too bad none of it was on his album. For the most part, it was all autotuned! I thought that was for people who COULDN'T sing! But honestly, I feel he doesn't care. All he cares about it his image. There's a handful of songs in which he does a terrible job, and I realize that the focus was the message of the songs (look at me, I'm so sexy), which is disappointing, because he has an amazing voice.
FYE
Okay, I'll admit it. Long story short, I have (accidentally) heard every song on his album (and then some). I never intended to, it just...happened. And I was shocked to find that I liked (and still like) 9 of the 14 songs on the album, all for different reasons. Basically, I think it’s crazy that he can write songs like “Broken Open” and “Aftermath” but promote songs like “For Your Entertainment” and “Fever”. You have songs that have incredible meaning, and other songs that are just sick.
