Celebrity Photography By Bryan Adams

Adams released his eleventh album internationally on March 17, 2008. It was appropriately called 11. The album was released in the US exclusively at Wal-Mart and Sam's Club retail stores on May 13, 2008. The first single released from the album was "I Thought I'd Seen Everything". Adams did an 11-day, 11-country European acoustic promotional tour to kick off the release of the album. The album debuted at number one in Canada (making it his first album to reach that position since Waking Up the Neighbours in 1991) as well as reaching number two in Germany. In the United States, the album charted at number 80. In May 2009, Bryan Adams announced on his Twitter account that he has started writing and recording a new album in Paris.
Adams was one of the four musicians who were pictured on the second series of the Canadian Recording Artist Series to be issued by ‎Canada Post stamps on July 2, 2009. The total estimated number of Bryan Adams stamps that were printed is one and one-half million. In December 2009, Bryan Adams released the song "You've Been a Friend to Me" for the film Old Dogs.
In February 2010, Adams released "One World, One Flame" – a track which will be used as a theme song by the major German TV Station ARD for their Olympic coverage of Olympic Games in Vancouver.
On February 12, 2010, Adams wrote and performed "Bang the Drum" as a duet with Nelly Furtado, for the opening ceremony for the 2010 Winter Olympics Games in Vancouver, BC in front of 60,000 people. With Wayne Gretzky and Jaromír Jágr at the opening ceremonies, this brought all three together once again, following Gretzky's final game in 1999 at Madison Square Garden, when Gretzky then played for the New York Rangers and Jagr was with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Adams then sang the Canadian national anthem and altered the line to reflect Gretzky's departure, saying, "We'll miss you Wayne Gretzky." Bryan Adams was recently one of several well known Canadian musicians to visit Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper at his official residence for an informal "jam session".
