I recently had the immense delight and honor of interviewing at length one of my all-time favorite singers, pop multi-hyphenate Adam Lambert, for the Film & Television fall 2024 issue of Music Connection magazine.
We discussed his boldly erotic new EP; upcoming Broadway debut in Cabaret; ITV docuseries Adam Lambert: Out, Loud and Proud; acting ambitions; underrated 2012 sophomore album (“Justice for Trespassing!”); and wild, 15-year journey from American Idol to AFTERS, among other hot topics.
“I ain’t letting go anytime soon. That’s my thing. I’m not giving up. I don’t go away,” Lambert told me. “I do feel I’ve come a long way. It’s about just giving less of a fuck, not being concerned with not everyone liking it. And that comes with experience. Having been in the business this long, being on the road with Queen for 10-plus years, I feel I’ve earned the right to say, ‘Fuck it. I’m going to do what I want. Life’s too short.’”
