I think its pretty ironic that Adam talks in this interview about not wanting to be known as the "openly gay" guy but rather a singer who happens to also be gay, yet his fans are all about his sexuality. I think it's pretty darn awesome that an openly gay man's CD comes with condoms though. Pretty cool.
He has some really nice things to say about male standards of beauty in Japan as well as what it means to be gay in the entertainment industry.
I also think it's awesome that an openly gay man is featured like any other guy in a teen pinup magazine:
Hee! Adam is totally going straight. Or not :)

Here's a really sweet interview Adam did last night on Tokyo FM. Apparently his song "For Your Entertainment" is #1 on this radio station too!
The whole interview is almost all relationship talk, and he must have been in a really sweet, mushy mood, because he gets all gushy about relationships and love. It's cute. He really, really wants to find love. I hope he finds it. He'd make a great husband to a lucky guy some day.

I don't care about his sexuality at all...although I'm not a huge fan. I just want the music to be hot or catchy...songs like FYE, WWFM, Soaked, PUU, and IIHY are great. Voodoo is a great bonus track and Sleepwalker is pretty nice too.

Adam and Boy George got to finally meet! Adam went to BG's single release party in London and apparently Boy George loved Adam and has been tweeting about it! Also, Adam's Japanese special edition CD which comes with Bonus tracks and a DVD is now sold out of Amazon Japan, HMV, and Sony Music Japan. Crazy! ETA-Some Adam/Boy George pics. Yay! :) Love these two :) They're so adorable :)

What do you guys want to be the next single? I want If I Had You..I know it's kinda risky, but if it radio supports it I think it could smash. It's definitely a summer single too. :)

I want IIHY as the next single. I think Adam needs an upbeat single. Sleepwalker would be great too, and he kills it live WAY more than IIHY. I think if he did Sleepwalker on Idol, it would smash. BTW, this is SUCH a cute pic of Adam with Sam Ronson. They're good friends apparently, and Adam hung out with Sam and Mark Ronson when he got to London:

Love Ryan's voice on the verses.

I looove the Adam version of this song. The demo sounds too "busy" and much more traditionally One Republic

Any chance Adam will be on GaGa's summer tour? Or is he definitely going to do a headlining run?

No details have been released yet about his tour, but it sounds like it'll be a solo tour. I was hoping he'd open for Gaga though. Maybe another time :)
Sorry I haven't updated this thread in the past few days. I was in the hospital. Blech.

I am happy for Adam. He is doing AMAZING In Japan and starting to become more popular overseas in general.
If he gets nominated for Best New Artist at the Grammys next year, that will help him so much, even if he loses.
I do think he looks like a walking Anime character, as someone said earlier. lol But that is a good thing. :) He certainly has a presence about him, which I love.

From Adam twitter
Just did my third German interview where I was told that I have said "I'm the male Lady Gaga". Lol I would never say that. I'm Adam Lambert
Of course Im a fan and have the highest respect for her and there some theatrical sensibilities that we share- but we are different people.
The first question too many reporters ask has to do w GaGa. As much as I love her- it's becoming tiresome. Would prefer to discuss MY art.
More redundant questions that can be put to rest: yes it was amazing meeting Madonna. No I wasn't asked to be Queen's new frontman. :)
Aaaaand yes, I kissed Kesha. It was fun. I hope future interviewers review these tweets. I'd not, they're twats. Hahah.
Don't get me wrong- I actually really enjoy being interviewed. I'm not upset- just hoping that by tweeting, this questions will fade.
MAC eyeliner. And yes- GAY GAY GAY GAY GAY yay!

I LOOOVE Sleepwalker acoustic! I can't wait until it's a single!!! Some new pics/Japanese magazine scans: He's one of Paper Magazine's "Beautiful People" and this is the image they used: He looks great! I haven't seen a male singer that took so well to photoshoots the way Adam has. He'd be a great model.
