According to a report by Access Hollywood, Tennessee‘s release date has been pushed off from this Friday, December 19th, to a later release, tentatively scheduled for March.

The film has had a couple of festival screenings so far as well as a one-week run at the beginning of December to qualify for Oscar contention, largely in the hopes of getting a nod for co-star Mariah Carey’s “Right to Dream,” listed among five front-runners by the Los Angeles Times:

THE POP STAR

Mariah Carey’s “Right to Dream.” In need of a guitarist for “Right to Dream,” Carey aimed high, going straight to country legend Willie Nelson. Written for ” Tennessee,” in which Carey plays an aspiring singer, “Right to Dream” is restrained elegance, with some light, finger-picked guitar flourishes and a dash of late-night soul. “I was humming different melodies while I was on the set and stuff,” Carey says. “I was just thinking that Willie Nelson would be somebody fabulous to collaborate with. I reached out to him, and we met after one of his concerts.”

Thanks to commenter Jeane for the heads up on the For Your Contention ad from the December 3 Los Angeles Times and h/t to the Mariah Daily Journal for the scan.

A few more publicity photos of Adam have turned up in The Ex List gallery at Nice girls watch TV …. We’ve pulled the Adam-only; click on over for more group shots.

Well, what do you know? Here’s our Adam lovin’, touchin’, and squeezin’ the divine Ms. Katie Holmes on the set of Mad Money.

The picture above — and this one — are candid, between the takes, shots snapped by some intrepid soul… who then, apparently, floated them all over the Internet this past week.

Hey, we’re not complaining. The Apple is just happy to see that Adam has a good “handle” on his current situation.

Thanks to Ann and Google for the heads up about the photos.

The unseasonably warm weather this January has Adam’s Apple‘s thoughts drifting back to a fine spring day, quaffing euro-brew with Adam in Astoria’s Bohemian Beer Garden…. (Photo: dogra)
