I see this too. I don't think he's putting on an act...I think he's taking off a mask. He seems so happy in his current role, especially when Adam is around...and you can tell he really enjoys how he looks these days, too. I mean, how many times has he tweeted us pictures of his makeup?
I don't think he's putting on an act...I think he's taking off a mask. I agree, I think the old Tommy was the mask and he was not happy. How many times has he said he is living his dream come true now? I still think there is a lot more to Tommy than meets the eye. He likely has more depth than we give him credit for, but also he seems to just be really trying to enjoy himself in his current role. He fits so well, and the chemistry with Adam, I've honestly never seen anything like it! Also, he still gets to be a badass by just being irreverent and bucking societal norms. I think he is loving being in a position where he can do whatever the fuck he wants.
I do think that people don't give Tommy enough credit. I've seen people describe him as ditzy, but dude, he basically stans Bill Maher. That's not really something a ditzy person would get passionate about. Maybe it's his accent, or how laid-back he is so much of the time, but yeah, deeper than he lets on.
Speaking of dream come true, I'm so excited for them to go international. I hope they get at least a little bit of time to see the countries they visit - what an amazing opportunity for all of them!
Tommy reminds me of Jessica Simpson for some reason.
Yeah, I know, but hear me out. Remember when she had the reality show and everyone thought she was so dumb? So dumb she was laughing her ass all the way to the bank and international stardom.
I mean, here he is - he's pulled ahead in the music industry, which is really fucking difficult to do. He's making steady, probably decent money. He's making contacts, networking, his name is now out there in the industry, he's got cred and experience. And people think he's dumb?
Yeah. How, exactly? Maybe he's not book smart or whatever (for all I know he really is), but he's savvy. he's savvy as fuck
