Adam Lambert 20/20 Interview (06/12/09) – Video
Here are a few more choice quotes from Rolling Stone’s story “Wild Idol: The Psychedelic Transformation and Sexual Liberation of Adam Lambert,” on newsstands now.
On experiencing discrimination: A few years ago, I did a musical with Val Kilmer, The Ten Commandments at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles. I was finally personally awakened, wearing nail-polish, feeling attractive and comfortable in my own skin for the first time. We’d go out sometimes with Val, and it was the first time I’d ever been around a celebrity — it felt really fabulous. One night, we hung out at his house and Sean Lennon came over to jam with us. I was like, John Lennon’s son? This is the coolest thing I’ve done in my life. But I had a lot of problems with the people putting on the show. One day, the director pulled me aside and said, “Can you turn it down? The producers are a little uncomfortable. It’s a little too … gay.” I was like, “Um, are we doing a musical here? I’m sorry, there are fags all over the place, dude.” It was very upsetting.
On making his sexuality public: There are so many old-fashioned ways of looking at things, and if we want to be a progressive society, we have to start thinking in a different way. There’s the old industry idea that you should just make sexuality a non-issue, just say your private life’s your private life, and not talk about it. But that’s bullshit, because private lives don’t exist anymore for celebrities: they just don’t. I don’t want to be looking over my shoulder all the time, thinking I have to hide, being scared of being found out, putting on a front, having a beard, going down the red carpet with some chick who is posing as my girlfriend. That’s not cool, that’s not being a rock star. I can’t do that.

Adam racconta che alcuni anni fa ha recitato nel musical “I 10 Comandamenti” nell’importante Kodak Theatre di Los Angeles dove recitava anche Val Kilmer. Proprio lui è la prima celebrità con la quale abbia stretto amicizia. Purtroppo la sua esperienza in quel musical non fu tutta rose e fiori, infatti gli chiesero di abbandonare perché alcuni membri del cast lo reputavano troppo gay e questo li infastidiva.
Nella seconda parte Adam afferma che la vita privata dovrebbe restare tale, ma dice anche che le celebrità non la possiedono più. Adam non vuole guardarsi le spalle e fingere di essere quello che non è, magari facendosi crescere la barba e facendosi fotografare con qualche ragazza, questo non è un comportamento da Rock Star e di certo non è da lui.

La rivelazione di “American Idol”
Non ha vinto l’ottava edizione di “American Idol” per un soffio, sul podio è finito Kris Allen, ma in America (e anche i Queen che lo vorrebbero come cantante) sono tutti pazzi per la voce di Adam Lambert. Rolling Stone gli ha dedicato la copertina e una lunga intervista. “Non è una sorpresa, sono gay e ho anche convissuto otto anni con un omosessuale a Los Angeles”, dice il cantante 27enne.
“Sono anche stato per diverso tempo nei club gay per bere e magari baciare qualcuno in un angolo”, continua la nuova stella della musica che ha voluto così chiarire una volta per tutte le foto circolate in Rete durante la sua partecipazione al talent show che lo vedevano in atteggiamenti intimi con diversi ragazzi. Foto che poi sono state rimosse: “Non ero ancora pronto – spiega -. In alcuni scatti poi ero anche in compagnia del mio ex. E ammetto pure di essermi travestito da drag queen per tre o quattro volte nella mia vita…”. Ma mette subito le mani avanti: “Non sono un leader delle battaglie civili sono solo un cantante”.
L’intervista alla prestigiosa rivista svela anche un passato difficile per l’interprete. “Quando avevo 21 anni sono stato per sei mesi in tour in Europa con il musical ‘Hair’. In Germania ho iniziato a prendere l’ecstasy, ma senza esagerare. Non mi ha mai attratto la cocaina”. Ma il cantante è ben consapevole che assumere droghe fa male: “La gente perde il controllo di se stessa”.
Per niente deluso dal suo secondo posto Adam dice di trovarsi molto a suo agio anche durante le interviste con i giornalisti: “Quando mi ha chiamato Rolling Stone ho pensato ‘cavolo è figo!’. Ho colto così l’occasione per dichiararmi orgoglioso della mia sessualità. Sono anche molto contento di essere oggetto di attrazione femminile. Le fan sono pazze di me e lo trovo gratificante.
Adam ha appena firmato un contratto con la RCA e il suo primo disco dovrebbe uscire entro l’autunno.

American Idol’s glamtastic runner-up Adam Lambert opens up in the next issue of Rolling Stone, speaking frankly about his sexuality, though he doesn’t think his revelation is particularly shocking.
“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.
The flamboyant Idol singer hits our cover and bares all, talking about his childhood (”I started to realize I wasn’t like every other boy,” he says), the drug-fueled Burning Man epiphany that led him to AI (”I realized that we all have our own power, and that whatever I wanted to do, I had to make happen,” he tells RS) and his run on the show (”I was like, ‘I’m going to glue rhinestones on my eyelids, bitch!’ “). And yes, he talks about his sexuality. “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 us. “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 adds. “I embrace it. It’s just another part of me.” Ultimately, however Lambert tells RS contributor Vanessa Grigoriadis that there are other parts of his life that he’s trying to keep front and center. “I’m trying to be a singer, not a civil rights leader,” he says.
It was that mission — and his Burning Man “psychedelic experience” — that lead him to Idol after years in musical theater. “I knew that it was my only shot to be taken seriously in the recording industry, because it’s fast and broad,” he tells RS.
He details his experience on Idol, his true thoughts on winner Kris Allen and how his sexuality impacted his Idol run in our cover story, “Wild Idol: The Psychedelic Transformation and Sexual Liberation of Adam Lambert,” which hits newsstands this week.
