Presented by Mel B of Spice Girl fame, Adam Lambert received the Davidson Valentini Award at the San Francisco GLAAD Media Awards yesterday, giving a very comical and poignant acceptance speech.
While shot from a distance, this video captures Mel’s introduction of Adam. Thank you NoAngelPF for your immediate posting.
Here’s a closer video from GLAADMedia of just Adam’s acceptance. Is it my imagination, or is this a very tepid crowd? Maybe I’m just use to a room full of Glamberts, who go crazy at the drop of a feather. Maybe this is what “polite” looks like?!
Here’s Adam making his entrance on the red carpet, with his mom, Leila.
This is the full red carpet – 1 hour & 43 minutes. If you advance the timer button at the bottom of the video, Adam and Leila enter the screen at 39:13. You’ll see Adam move on solo and chat with two on the carpet, giving some beautifully animated close-up facial time, until 44:36. This video gives living room fans a more accurate view of what it’s like to attend Red Carpet events. With the red carpet lasting for 1 ¾ hours, you can imagine that a dinner event lasts all day. Taking in the prep time, traveling to the event, arriving, red carpet, entrance with schmoozing, the event and the after-party, Lila and I can tell you personally that it lasts all day. At least our NewNowNext Awards did!! Kind of like lining up all-day for one of his concerts! 🙂
Adam shares his and Leila’s entrance with us.

Of course it wouldn’t be Adam if our day didn’t start with this:
Happy Mothers Day!!

What a fabulous outfit for both him and his mom. This was a great event and I’m so proud of Adam. More good things to come I’m sure.
I don’t know why but he looks awkward walking down the red carpet. ADAM YOU SHOULD BE FEELIN SEXY AND FREE.
Congradulations to Adam for his award from GLAAD. He is a very deserving person.
