'American Idol': Randy Jackson denies report that he dined with Adam Lambert (Entertainment Weekly)

A report on the Web site GossipSauce claiming that American Idol judge Randy Jackson dined with season 8 finalist Adam Lambert at Katsuya restaurant in Hollywood last Tuesday -- the night before Lambert's Feb. 25 semifinal performance of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" propelled him to a top 12 slot -- is "absolutely untrue," according to Jackson's publicist. "Randy did not have dinner with Adam Lambert. He ran into him as he was leaving the restaurant," Jackson's publicist tells EW exclusively.
