Adam Lambert is #10 on AfterElton.com's Top 50 Gay Male Musicians
Gifted with a multi-octave range, classical good looks and a penchant for eyeliner and nail polish, Adam Lambert burst into the public’s eye on Season Eight of American Idol. Although he worked in several theater productions, including Wicked and The Ten Commandments, was a front man for the band The Citizen Vein and performed at the Upright Cabaret and the Zodiac Show, he didn’t actually acquire a fan-base until he competed on the popular reality competition. Early on during his time on American Idol, pictures of him and his ex-boyfriend kissing were released on the Internet. Lambert neither confirmed nor denied his sexuality, choosing instead to simply declare, “I have nothing to hide….I am who I am.” After finishing as the runner-up on Idol, Adam stated publicly to Rolling Stone magazine that, “it should come as no surprise that I am gay.” He is the first openly gay mainstream pop artist to launch his career on a major label. His album, “For Your Entertainment” debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 3, and hits such as “Whataya Want From Me” and “If I Had You” have been in the Top 20 in the USA and No. 1 in countries around the world. After an almost completely sold-out headlining tour of the United States, he invaded Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Malaysia, The Philippines and many other international cities before heading to Europe. Expect a follow-up album in 2011 and another world tour. Lambert’s star has just started to rise.
