Adam Lambert: Grounded, sensible, and confident

There is just so much about former “American Idol” contestant Adam Lambert, for people to love. First of all there’s his incredible singing voice, which has won thousands of people over no matter where the 27-year old singer has performed.

Then there are his chiseled facial features and his sense of style. But they aren’t the only attributes that attract people to him. There is also the fact that Adam is sensible, articulate, remarkably grounded and very confident.

Adam Lambert: Grounded, sensible, and confident

When a reporter recently told Adam that he must have wonderful parents, he gave a very moving answer. Adam said “I do have great parents.” He went on to say that his father is teacher-orientated and was very much guiding him through.

Adam then followed on by saying that from an early age, he remembers his father telling him that everybody is going to want to be his friend when he was older. Adam says his dad told him that people would understand him later on.

    And that is why I love him! Thanks for the nice article.

    We already have a Britney Spears and Lady Gaga, why would we want a male version. Adam sold out. He is not a rocker, he is a Disco Diva.

    Adam is all those things and so much much more. Adam is blessed with thousands (millions?) of us that love and support him as well as loving involved parents that will keep him grounded throughout his long career as a “Rock Star”! His parents are to be congratulated on rearing a wonderful young man as well as supporting and channeling his amazing vocal/performance talents. I’m thankful that rock/pop music finally has a star that can actually sing with musicality and a gorgeous versatile voice!!! Looking forward to many years of his beautiful and fun music. P.S. Yes, I do recognize that Adam is not always an angel…thank heavens! :)

    The more you read about Adam the more you realized what a wonderful person he is. He is such a well-rounded person. Takes good parents to raise a son like him. Kudos to Eber and Laila Lambert.

    Sissy – have you heard the samples from his new album? Most of the songs are rock-oriented, not dance/electronic. They chose FYE as his debut single because that genre of music is very commercially viable right now. RCA is trying to market him outside the Idol fanbase. Once people hear songs like “Strut”, “Music Again” and “Aftermath”, they’ll realize he’s so much more than just a male Lady Gaga. To pigeon hole him like that is myopic, and frankly ignorant.

    Very well said Tina. Along with his spectacular vocals, good looks, the man’s personality is very attractive as well. Genuine, compassionate, articulate and positive.

    ADAM IS AMAZING IN EVERY WAY. GREAT ARTICLE.

  • Jmac

    Nice article!! Adam has definately won us all over with his unique, articulate, and very grounded artistic vision. He is business savvy but really doesn’t mind taking risks and with that phenomenal voice, you can’t go wrong! Adam is also tuned into his spiritual side which also make him so likeable. Really he is the complete package and lets face it – Adam is hot!!

  • Jason

    Adam is someone who follows his gut and his artistic vision. That is great to see in this day and age and it takes balls quite frankly. I think anyone who doesn’t get that this dude is mega talented and worthy of respect just isn’t paying attention.

  • maryann

    Thank you for your article. Those are precisely the things that I found in Adam which made me love him this much…

  • terie

    Sissy … not happy with ADAM? THere’s the door … there are enough of us here to fill your vacancy. ADAM needs loyal steadfast fans not ones who criticize him every time he does something they don’t agree with. Not a fan? Then why are you here posting about something you have no knowledge about? Wait until his album is released … you WILL be SURPRISED! As a TRUE fan I will support him all the way.

    What is not to love.. Adam is gorgeous in every way possible

  • Suzanne

    There is no other artist that intrigues me more than Adam. He has something for everyone and he has only just begun. He will be blazing trails with his music. He is beautiful. He is brave. He is visionary. He is true to himself. Love takng the journey with my boy Adam with all its twists and turns. Fun!

  • Bugs

    His voice is incredible and unique, but I wonder if he would have attracked such a big following if not for his personality. His intelligence, openness, honesty, playfulness and ability to express his thoughts in such an articulate manner are what appealed to me. And yes, his parents are super.

  • AdamBomb

    Thank you for the nice article. I saw Adam performing live this summer on the AI Live Tour, and the audience absolutely loved him. He is a very grounded young man too. I read that he has been working on his album and his career seven days a week. I already pre-ordered his album, and I can hardly wait for his eventual live tour. His singing style is eclectric and ranges from rock to pop to almost Broadway (Soaked by Muse on his new album). IMO, many other AI contestants (but not Allison) have been so bland and boring in comparison.

  • sizzlingsmile

    Adam is not only an immensely talented singer and performer, he radiates beauty inside and out. He has a great sense of humor, is true to himself, charming, not afraid to be himself and honest. Very sezy combination… His parents and close friends deserve a big applause!

  • Olivia

    When Adam was on AI, everyone was so impressed by his versatility and would say :”he could sing the phone book and sound amazing” or “no matter what he sings, I will buy”. Now, Adam has decided to make an eclectic album in order to please people who have different tastes in music, AND PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING! I mean WTF! Rock is just ONE genre that suits Adam and that he can execute impecably. If rock is your preference, then that is just that: YOUR preference. I do admit that Adam’s rock god side is probably my favourite, but I dont dislike the other genres that he does. Has it ever occurred to you that maybe others appreciate other kinds of music sung by Adam? Whatever, Adam doesnt need fans who are hypocrites anyway!

  • AdamIcon

    Sissy, I find your answer to be very humorous. Adam is being himself. He hasn’t sold out. Selling out would be choosing the genre he thinks will sell best and sticking to that just to be popular. He continues to take risks and be true to his own style. Also, we already had Madonna, so we don’t need the Madonna imitators and wanna-be’s named Lady Gaga and Britney. Their voices are just okay. Any pop machine could take a so so girl voice on helium and arrive at a GaGa or Britney. Adam’s voice is ranked second best of all time, based on a dozen criteria and a panel of expert rock judges. Were you a fan before and you don’t like the directtion you think he’s gone in, or are you just a hater who wants to drag Adam down? I will withhold judgement until I hear the entire album. It’s your right to choose other music that makes you happy.

    At age 60, I haven’t been as excited about a singer for decades. Adam is a miracle!

  • Angel

    I just can’t find fault with this fine young man and there’s Eber and Leila to thank for giving us the ADAM he is today. ADAM makes his parents proud with all his positive qualities showing good breeding. ADAM’s phenomenal talent made us fans from AI. But the more you get to know ADAM, his overall personality and character and right attitude make you just fall in love with him. ADAM is a beautiful human being inside and out. And yes, as one poster said, what is there not to love? I thank GOD for ADAM.
