No Big Surprise: Adam Lambert Says He's Gay

LambertRSCover.jpgAdam Lambert is finally addressing the rumors about his sexuality head on.

"I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay," Lambert says in the new issue of Rolling Stone, hitting newsstands this week.

Shocking right? So why did he wait so long to just say what everyone pretty much already knew?

"Right after the finale, I almost started talking about it to the reporters, but I thought, 'I'm going to wait for Rolling Stone, that will be cooler.'" he tells the mag. "I didn’t want the Clay Aiken thing and the celebrity-magazine bullshit. I need to be able to explain myself in context.

"I'm proud of my sexuality," Lambert continues. "I embrace it. It’s just another part of me."

Well said Adam!

And it doesn't look like this so-called "admission" is going to dampen his chances of stardom.

He's just inked a deal with 19 Entertainment and RCA. Expect Adam's first CD to be released this fall.

Can't wait!!!



Do you think Adam's being openly gay will have an effect on his career?

What an ABOMINATION!

9:06 A famous idol tranny throwback! No wonder he & seacrest were so cozy on the show! The cover of rolling stones has a fag laying on his back, no doubt luring butt pirates from all over the world to support his disgusting, loose booty & feces clogged shorty!! All these m'f'r's need to go back in the closet & stay or move them all to Maine, Vermont & wherever else it is legalized! Stop showing this ugly ass, kim hogassdashian make-up obsessed, feces loving fag!!!!!

The "clay aiken thing" was an absolute disgrace the way he lied time and time again to his devoted fans. At least this guy is up front and won't be playing his fans falsely just to gain money for himself and his charities. Clay's fan gave big bucks to Aiken's charities based on lies (thought he would marry them or some such crap the more they paid). Discusting. Go Adam. Honesty rules!

Bend over & grab them ankles...here comes Ryan! That's it, that's all ya got? I didn't feel a thing, are you sure? "Like throwing a hot dog down a dirty hallway"!

Gross. Nothing wrong with gays but this homo is a flaming ass plunger.
Where are the real men? Not this confused homo who wants to be a girl.



Posted by: xxl

blimey! I don't have anything against him for being gay, but the bit where he admits to use drugs,......how can he call himself a role model? Not so cool. Plus, he should stop using if he doesn't wanna end up like Elvis, Jim Morrison,etc.....



Posted by: Ron

yeah,man. The issue here shouldn't be his sexuality, it should be the drug use.

ADAM IS GAY ?!?



Posted by: kk

Adam lambert is awsome and that dosen't change my opinion about him just because he is gay and I still have a crush on him and I think he is totally hot!!!!



Posted by: Anonymous

Didn't other contestants get tossed off the show when it was discovered they had a drug history. This one just gets tossed off backstage by seacrest.



Posted by: Jory


Seriously Adam was never ever n the closet cuz the ppl who really love him will know it from the beginning like me cuz i digged 4 everything about him .. God he is the best thing ever happened to alot of ppl and especially 4 AI cuz he brought the Show to live again - I am so proud of u Adam and will never change anything about u :)




Posted by: shezfromoz

that looks like the shittiest rolling stone mag ever



Posted by: Anonymous

He and Clay Aiken just showed other closet queens that they will always be number 2 cause they enjoy taking it where the number 2 comes from.



Posted by: Mm.......what U talkin bout Willis????

yah...I guess I'd be about as dumb as somebody who would defend such an over hyped egotist...............



Posted by: Anonymous

IS THERE REALLY ANYBODY ON THIS PLANET THAT DID NOT KNOW THIS? I MEAN, EVEN BEFORE CLAIKEN OPENED HIS MOUTH....FOR WHATEVER IT WAS HE WAS HOPING TO GET OUT OF HIS INAPPROPRIATE WORDS. WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK CLAIKEN?



Posted by: Ken

He Still Lost...........



Posted by: veronica

Where is the sweet guy from Idol ? Oh , that was one of the masks he uses for different situations . So it is beneath him to do the People Magazine bullshit but he buys into the Rolling Stone bullshit . Isn't he just the coolest guy ever ! He and Clive will be thisclose .



Posted by: so do i

i don't know what kind of mental disorder it is for a man to suck another man's cock, but i sure do know that god hates fags.



Posted by: Clay/Adam Fan

To Anonymous @ 10:49 a.m., Clay never lied, he just avoided the question. That was also 6 years ago. Things were a little bit different then and who knows what his management, record label, etc. advised him to do. There was also an age difference: Adam 27 or 28, Clay 23. No one should have to "come out" until they are ready, especially to the whole world.



Posted by: Aislyn

8:18. Grow out of it you fool. Clay played you. You must be smart enough to see that by now. BTW He did come out to the whole world on the front of a highly paying magazine. That's your boy.



Posted by: Clay/Adam Fan

To Aislyn, Clay didn't play me. I'm fine with it and him. You seem upset though....



Posted by: Aislyn

It is a bit upsetting when I saw how many ex-claymates seemed really hurt by it all. No, they were not forced to give up their money bla bla. People in my office used to get in shouting matches when the gay thing came up. "HE"S NOT GAY!!!!!!" I myself have never heard his music, do they even play it on the radio? So I can't have an objective opinion of the guy. I just posted on what I've obsereved which is many people seem let down about it. If you're not one of them and you didn't sink lots of $$$ into his game then lucky you. But, others seem set to move on and I don't think you, I, nor Clay for that matter should care really. It's not like he's some big summer act is he? Oh wait, he doesn't let the fans in on things, they have to find out from goss sites, right?



Posted by: Anonymous

To Aslin Don't waste you time trying to reason with the old women Claytards. Its a losing battle. The deciples he has left are hardcore. I worked at this tiny place that CA played and these women were like nothing you have ever seen. Mid life crisis for the fat ferals. Funny to watch them in action though. Running all over blub blub blub.



Posted by: lol

Anon 10:52 . Take a look at the comments on sites about Adam and look around you at his concerts . There you will see bunches of old fat Lamtards drooling into their fantasies . Blub blub blub . Now that will be funny to watch .

Does noone monitor these posts to weed out the obscene utterances of homophobes? The RS cover is art, perhaps not to everyone's tastes, and the only truly offensive aspects have been the anti-gay posts written about it. The intolerance for gays in these web postings is mind-boggling.

I always thought A.I. was a show geared to finding an amateur as the next recording artist. I found Adam too professional. I thought he sounded the same week after week. I don't see him as a role model, certainly not after reading he was into drugs. Also, we found out later he was already "signed" as early as January prior to becoming a contestant and wrote 9 of the 11 songs on a record that hadn't yet been released. He violated the rules. Surely, he must have known he signed a deal with someone. His rationale was really lame saying he sang songs others wrote, which wasn't true & that he never had intended for it to be released. Then why did he do it? What's the purpose of doing a demo with the intention of it never being released? Now it's too late to do anything about it. He lied & should have been disqualified as a contestant. What a tool he is!







This part is optional!
