The apocalypse, starring Adam Lambert

I heart i09.com with all my nerdy soul. Sci-fi with snark. My nirvana.
*soft sigh*
Today, it lifted my soul, found my laughter and eased my mind. In short, it presented Adam Lambert (he of the Carmen Miranda fashion sense and eyeliner addiction) wailing away for his one true love and waving his arms around, all while walking casually through an apocalypse.
Like you do.
Apparently, his new song has hitched it’s wagon to the upcoming apocalypse movie “2012,” where we’re all doomed by ginormous tidal waves. Caused by a volcano. Or something. Because nothing says true love like drowning. Or, getting hit by a giant fireball.
The video is so bad, it’s good. Or, to quote author Meredith, “Where do I even start with this ridiculous yet brilliant blend of marketing hype?” It’s Lambert in really bad makeup (seriously, did anyone even look at him before they started shooting?), crooning out “Time for Love” in that generic, synthesized voice every pop star has these days, all broody and fabo in black as the world is smashed to bits around him.
The best summation of this piece of disaster porn meets mediocre pop comes from one of the comments: “One lone man…on a roof top…with a bottle of black nail polish.”
Amen, brother.
*bimbles off*
