Adam Lambert

Adam Mitchel Lambert (born January 29, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter, and actor from San Diego, California. In May 2009, he finished as the runner-up on the 8th season of American Idol. The Times identified Lambert as the first openly gay mainstream pop artist to launch a career on a major label in the United States.

Lambert released his debut album, For your Entertainment, in November 2009, via RCA Records/19 Recordings. The album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 in December 2009, selling 198,000 copies in the United States in the first week.

I am not an American Idol fan. I have only caught a few episodes here and there, but I have never had much interest in the whole thing. It's wonderful for those that are on the show, but for me, I have had better things to do, or watch on TV when the show was aired. With that said, I never caught a single episode of season 8 where Adam finished as runner-up. The first time that I heard Adam sing was when my niece was playing a video she had made that had used the song "Whataya Want from me". From the first line of the song, to the lyrics, I was in love. The song was so upbeat, and moving. I loved it. Anytime I hear the song, it is immediately stuck in my head for days. I keep singing it over and over and over. I had to know more. I had to know who this artist was, what he looked like, because trust me, someone who can sing this well, has got to be very sexy.  I was trying to decide whether or not I was going to buy the song (yeah, that was a short debate. lol) so I looked it up online, and found a performance Adam had done on The View and yup, he had totally and completely captured my heart. I haven't expanded my music collection with any additional Adam Lambert songs... yet. Gotta have $$$ for that, but I do enjoy listening to his soulful voice and will purchase additional songs as I am able. For now, I hope you enjoy my tribute to Adam.


p.s. I did just have to say, my heart broke a little upon finding out that Adam is gay. I have nothing against that way of life, but my dreams of making out with him were dashed. lol It made me a little sad. :) Good luck with your career Adam. We love you!
