American Idol runner-up, Glambert, and friends hit up a room at the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Angeleno/local/9">Hotel Angeleno</a> to film a promotional spot for Vevo, a new music video website that launched last month. The video intersperses shots of the hotel with Glambert and his friends "trashing" one of the rooms to one of his songs.
