Adam Lambert is currently doing some damage control via his official Twitter account. Apparently too many of them have been bombarding radio station request lines and DJs' inboxes with requests for his current single "Whataya Want From Me." The following series of tweets came earlier today:
adamlambert Happy New Year guys!! I love that you want to support my music and call in requests, but please be mindful of how often you do so... about 7 hours ago from Echofon
Open House Party is a great supporter of my songs, but when there is an organized group of fans calling stations nonstop, about 7 hours ago from Echofon
... It understandably upsets them. Stations can track over-use of requests and fraudulent requests and I would hate to lose their support. about 7 hours ago from Echofon
I really appreciate your passion and dedication to getting my music on the radio, but don't drive the stations crazy! :) thanks friends! about 7 hours ago from Echofon
Woohoo!! Thanks to all who voted for the Z100 best new artist!! I'm honored :) about 7 hours ago from Echofon
FYI. That doesn't mean to stop requesting!! Just try not to do it 30 times in one day.... Just Cool it on the redial/resend kick. :) about 7 hours ago from Echofon
Oh and so you all know, upon hearing this news, I laughed so hard. Y'all are nuts and I adore you for it. :) about 7 hours ago from Echofon
Adam would not be addressing this issue unless he and his label have been receiving negative feedback from radio station program directors. This is not the first time Adam has had to calm down his fans, and although it';s understandable they are excited about getting him airplay, they better wake up and realize there's a right way to go about these kinds of tasks and there's a wrong way.
