“Everybody’s so cool and I didn’t know what to expect, but I immediately felt verycomfortable with everyone and we’ve been having a lot of fun,” the singer, 31, tells me Saturday during the InterContinental Miami Make-A-Wish Ball. “We laugh a lot.”
Still, Adam doesn’t aspire to join the show full-time.
“I think the guest-star thing is a really nice treat,” he says.
