Adam Lambert: I'm Gay.

Quotes from Adam Lambert on Rolling Stone:

“I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay,” Adam Lambert says in the new issue of Rolling Stone, hitting newsstands this week.

“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.”

When Idol producers put him in a room to share with Kris Allen, Lambert says his first thought was, "They put me with the cute guy. Distracting! He's the one guy I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type — except that he has a wife. I mean he's open-minded and liberal, but he's definitely 100% straight."

On current boyfriend Drake LaBry: "Cajun, voodoo-down, dreamy.”
