Is Ryan Adams Converting to Judaism?

By Izzy Grinspan / April 15, 2008

Like Rosie O'Donnell and John Mayer, singer Ryan Adams is a celebrity who really likes to blog. Lately, posts on his Tumblog have hinted that he's converting — and not converting like Madonna, who's just about Kabbalah, but converting like Mare Winningham, who genuinely became a Jew. From today's post:

5. I am not catholic nor baptist. I am quietly converting but by the books, to a much older and less mystic religion which seems to respect God as someone to be feared and not understood, as I fear and don’t understand.

"Less mystic" is kind of a nice and thoughtful way of describing it, no? Also, because I know you were wondering, he thinks Bryan Adams is "not a serious artist."

    David,

    Not ultra-orthodox? If he's looking for a religion based on fear that might be closer to the mark, although I thought Catholocism has the real lock on fear.

    He would be a tremendous asset. Hopefully either Reform or Left-wing Modern Orthodox. Conservative would be an unfortunate choice, though. No point in choosing to ride a dying horse.

    it's funny when people confuse BRYAN Adams and RYAN Adams. i'm not a fan of either, but if i had to choose i'd go with the latter. he's less corny and better looking.

    and if those hints are true, i say "welcome" to Mr. Adams!
