Adam Lambert Sings at Mt Carmel High School Graduation

Adam Lambert sang Its so Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday at his Mt Carmel High School graduation in 2000.

Adam had his natural hair color back in the day.

Adam did an interview with Entertainment Weekly which addressed his sexuality:

I want to just get this question out of the way first, something that’s been dangling a bit over you for the whole season:

Would you like to put to rest all the speculation about your sexuality?

It’s not dangling over my head. [Laughing] It may be dangling over yours, but it’s not over mine. Yeah, I think speculation keeps things really interesting.

So you don’t want to say anything one way or the other?

Like I said, I think speculation keeps things very, very interesting. [Laughs]

All right. What was it like singing with Queen and KISS tonight?

Oh my god, what an honor. Queen is like one of my all time favorite rock bands, and then to be up on stage with KISS with the pyro and the costumes — I mean, it was a dream come true. It was awesome.

You were called a front-runner from the very beginning. Did you feel that pressure?

I didn’t feel it as pressure. I felt it as support. I felt like they were very encouraging early on, and that really helped me feel like I could take the risks that I took, you know? Had it not been for that support, I probably wouldn’t have done as well in the competition.

Your friendship with Kris has been pretty amazing to watch. On paper, you don’t necessarily have a lot in common. What brought you guys together?

Yeah. We were roommates, so we were kind of thrown in together, and he’s just like a really open-minded, good person. He’s got a great view of the world. We share a lot of philosophies on the world, even though we have different backgrounds. You know, I’ve learned a lot about his relationship with his wife. She’s great. We’ve hung out. He’s just a good guy, you know?
So you’re happy he won?

I’m so happy for him. He deserves it. He’s so talented, and he’s a good person.

Adam teased the gays by not saying he is gay. We already know, but it’s going to torture some who really want him to come out. Adam is teasing the way Clay Aiken did. It’s Adam’s choice, but its not like he’s really hiding it.

Below is the backstage interview Adam did after he lost American Idol. Adam was a very gracious loser, and he’s really talented. We respect the way Adam handled the whole thing, and look forward to covering his career.
