“When I got in the studio with Pharrell, I was super nervous and intimidated. And we started talking about life, and he was asking me some questions, and I was telling him that I felt like an outsider. I didn’t feel like I was a part of the music community and I wanted to be. And I felt like I just wanted to bust in there and do my thing in kind of a rebellious, aggressive way. And in just in life in general. My history’s always felt a little bit like that. I’ve always felt a little bit like on the outskirts of something. I’m always craving a sense of community. So we talked about that and I think he found the way in which he identified with me as being somebody that’s been different or having to kind of prove themselves. Then we wrote ‘Trespassing’ together. And then sonically, he was very much interested in kind of putting me into this early 80’s Queen kind of vibe. He was like ‘that’s where you need to be and it’s gonna be great!’ And it worked out really well! It’s one of my favorite songs on the album, for sure! What I love about it is it’s not trendy. It’s not what you’ve heard on the radio lately. It’s not following a formula and there’s something really refreshing about that and totally terrifying to the record company. But it’s a great song, regardless if it’s commercially successful or not, artistically I think it makes a big impact.” -Adam Lambert

“Yeah sometimes I worry about doing something that’s controversial, but sometimes you’re like, ‘wait, what? I didn’t think that was a big deal.’ People are sensitive. My mom’s always like ‘Adam, don’t say that! What are people gonna think!? Adam, I don’t know I don’t know, that was a little…’ She’ll call me or she’ll text me: ‘Adam, that was a little racy!’ And my mom’s very cool, she’s very very down to earth but she’s just worried. She’s always worried about what people will say and think. She’s being a good mother, she’s protecting me. But it’s not rock n roll.” -Adam Lambert

“You know my hair’s not as silver at this very moment. When you wash your hair with warm water and shampoo, it changes and colors fall out and in, and it’s an effant flow of color.” -Adam Lambert on his new silver hair :)

“That’s the funny thing- I’d been out since I was 18. But when you all of a sudden, overnight, go into everybody’s TV sets and you’re a household name. Essentially with American Idol, you have to kind of go back and introduce some the of basics, like ‘what’s your sexuality?’ I was like the first out American pop star to sign a major mainstream thing. We’re in an interesting climate in America with sexuality. It’s a very hot issue right now. It presses a lot of buttons. And so at the time, that was a big milestone. And after that, with Trespassing, apparently I was the first out musician to have a number one album. I didn’t know that either. I didn’t know that these milestones hadn’t been met and actually was very surprised that it was me that was doing it.” -Adam Lambert ♥♥♥

“Ya know I am probably pretty awkward in general. And that’s another thing about living the life that we all think it is. I thought ‘oh yay! I get to be in this big club now! I’m like the nerd that gets to be in the popular group in high school. I get to sit at their lunch table.’ It’s not like that. It’s not quite like that and I’ve met celebrities before and I’m not gonna name any names but I’ve been kinda geeking out and kind of like ‘hey, nice to meet you, I’m a big fan!’ and they’re kinda like ‘cool dude’ and walking over there, ya know, like they don’t care. So that’s always a nice slap in the face. But it’s good. It’s humbling, I guess. Keeps me grounded when they’re like ‘you’re not that cool’. -Adam Lambert <3 <3 <3 <3 (he’s adorable)

Adam article in this week’s NW Australian magazine:

Adam Lambert
‘Don’t put me in a box’
It’s time for a chat with the coolest guyliner in pop

Welcome back to Australia! What do you like about it here?
I love it out here! I love the way of life, the attitude is super laid-back and positive.

Your first album showed more of your rock-star persona…
It was dictated by the music I played on [American Idol]. And I really wanted to get my feet wet and try on the persona of a rock star. This one, Trespassing, is a lot more personal.

You’ve used the term stankface when describing the new music. Can you explain its meaning?
If you hear something that has a good groove or is really funky you make face do this scrunched-up look. That’s stankface. The album is very stankface-y!

Rolling Stone magazine said you sing like “Zeus in a thong”. How does that sit with you?
I was, like, thank you! I don’t know what the thong part is about. Do they mean sandals?

What’s up with your blond hair?
I just felt like it. When you do the same thing every time it’s boring.

Your new tattoo means “music soothes the savage beast”. Does it really?
I felt like it made sense to me. When you’re performing or listening to music, your brain goes quiet. Music is almost a form of meditation. It balances. It locks you into a mood.

You had a cameo on Pretty Little Liars. How was that?
Great! It was a Halloween episode and I was playing at a party. I was a glampire. I would love to do more, if it’s the right thing.

There’s a lot of buzz about you doing American Idol…
I think I’m being considered. I’d love the opportunity. It would be cool to come back.

Thoughts on Nicki Minaj doing Idol?
I don’t think that’s been confirmed.



Star Talk!
What’s the first thing that comes into Adam’s head when we mention these celebrities?

Kim Kardashian:
Why?
Christian Aguilera:
Sings her face off. I love her voice.
Jennifer Aniston:
Loveable. Girl next door.
Kristen Stewart:
Emo! Converse.
Russell Brand:
Quirky. Very interesting to talk to. He’s out there, but he’s very entertaining.
The Situation:
I hate that show [Jersey Shore]! It’s a waste of time!
Jennifer Lopez:
Gorgeous, glowing, stunning, and very graceful.
David Beckham:
I think every man envies him, every straight man especially. He’s got that cool it-guy thing.
Taylor Armstrong:
Is she the one whose husband died? What a shitty situation.

“One of the things that I love about what I’m doing right now with my band, is that the focus is definitely the music. It’s the storytelling of the songs you’re doing and the grooves and the parts that the band play and these background singers. In the past, with my last tour, it was very theatrical- lots of costumes, I had dancers. And it was staged almost a little more like a theater piece. And this right now is a little bit different. It’s a bit more stripped back. It’s a bit more casual in its feel. It’s not planned out. It’s very organic and impulsive. Of course the fashion is still on point. It’s still A-Okay.” -Adam Lambert

“The whole notoriety, fame thing is like a really good judgment and test for friends. It really is, because it makes or breaks ‘em. I had a couple of friends that just could not hang with it. They got real uncomfortable, they got wierded out, they assumed that I would turn into this guy. And I was like, ‘well if you think that’s the kind of person I would turn into, then obviously, we’re not that close.’ They obvious don’t know me, cause that’s not who I am.” -Adam Lambert
