We recently posted two threads here on Adam Lambert 24/7, with the announcement of the Adam Lambert cover for Metrosource Magazine's August/September 2015 cover. Now we have the interview via Paul Hagen, posted by Metrosource Magazine via Twitter (above), and it's a good one!!!





LINK TO FULL INTERVIEW: Adam Lambert: There I Said It 

"Adam Lambert has spent his career proving himself as an entertainer—to viewers of American Idol, to fans of Queen, even to the gay community. But with his latest album, he’s trying to prove: He knows who he is."

Quotes:

Paul Hagen: Going back all the way to Idol, one of your trademarks has been knowing how to use stage fireworks to showcase a song. Do you have a sense of how you want to visually present this album — on stage or in videos?

Adam Lambert: I’ve been thinking about it because it’s gonna come up on me here any minute. … I definitely want to go down a different path than what I’ve done in the past; I hate repeating myself. I think the album sounds so different from what I’ve done, that it needs to look different as well. I want to go more minimal. Basically, I want to go more art installation-esque — a little bit more modern, a little bit more graphic. There will obviously always be little elements of theater in everything I do — it’s just who I am — but in a less presentational way.

Paul Hagen: So you’re not gonna have emojis flying outta your head?

Adam Lambert: I have a feeling there’s not gonna be rhinestones. There’ll be no glitter. … It’s gonna be something different for me, and I’m really excited about that.
