Netizens all over the world were surprised upon learning that American Idol Season 8 Runner-Up Adam Lambert, who was recently featured in Rolling Stone (RS) Magazine, openly admitted that he was really gay. The truth of the matter is, he's been living in LA for eight long years as "gay", even before his stint in American Idol. Adam says, "I don't think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I'm gay," Adam correctly states, adding: "I'm proud of my sexuality. I embrace it." He was one of my favorites during the first half of the season because of his distinct musicality, alongside Danny Gokey and Anoop Desai. Thoughts like this came into my mind as well during the course of the season, but I though it was just a probability. Needless to say, he's coming out now. Both as an artist ready to show the world that he's much more than the contestant that he was in the idol stage, but also as an individual who hopes he will be respected with the decision he has made, now that he's real sexuality is out in the open.


"I was worried that [coming out] would be so sensationalized that it would overshadow what I was there to do, which was sing. I'm an entertainer, and who I am and what I do in my personal life is a separate thing. It shouldn't matter. Except it does. It's really confusing," Adam tells Rolling Stone. He was recently seen holding hands with a guy named Drake LaBry, which made netizens speculate that this person was his alleged boyfriend. "I'm trying to be a singer, not a civil rights leader," added Adam. In addition to that, he has the support of Kara Dioguardi, one of the judges of the show, whom he shares a close friendship with, now that he has recorded with her. Things like this brings us back to the time, down in memory lane, when former idol Clay Aiken did the same thing years ago. In fact, when Adam was asked about it, he said, “Clay Aiken’s gay, and I’m gay, and we couldn’t be more different. The only thing that is the same about everyone in the gay community is that we’re gay. … Why can’t we talk about a human community?”


But when he was asked on what he thinks about his fellow contestant, American Idol Season 8 Winner, Kris Allen, he said, “They put me with the cute guy. Distracting! He’s the one guy I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type — except that he has a wife. I mean he’s open-minded and liberal, but he’s definitely 100% straight.” Nothing to fuss about the issue however, dor Adam values his friendship with Kris more than his gender preference, so to speak. Now that he is getting ready to release his own record, let's just hope everything goes well for him. He is talented, versatile. and he has the potential to make it big. With the ability to wow an audience with different and unique performances every single week way back his American Idol days, I hope he'll do just that in the coming days, and prove to everyone that he is truly more than what meets the public eye. More than a singer, a public figure, or a TV personality --- he's Adam Lambert. And needless to say, he's just keeping it real.
