Despite not winning the title of American Idol, Adam Lambert has been just as successful as a runner-up. Lambert may have more of a name for himself than the winner of that season, Kris Allen.
Following his departure from the competition, his 2009 debut album “For Your Entertainment” became a great success as it debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart. The following year, Lambert received a nomination for his first Grammy for the hit “Whataya Want From Me.” According to Forbes Magazine, he has also made the most money out of all the other “American Idol” alumni.
Something that set Lambert apart from the other contestants on the show is that he was a theater kid. Because of this, his style of singing had a Broadway feel to it. His uniqueness earned him a devoted group of fans and great exposure, but he was unfortunately voted off as a runner-up.
I can relate to him because I also participated in musical theater. It is where I learned to develop a voice aside from the church choir. Lambert appeared on “American Idol” as a substitute judge for Keith Urban in season 13. He provided valuable feedback as well as advice on what it is like to compete in the show.

Very nice write up. Very flattering for Adam, except for one thing he is not the top earner of the idols, just for 2015. The others are way ahead of him over all, plus they have a few extra years of earnings. But thanks to Queen he is living a very comfortable life. There is no end to his talent, and of all the idols, in my opinion, he is the only one who can sing any genre other than rap. He has certainly proved himself to be a great star. Watch out for Kris Allen this year he has just released a new album, with which JMO he has a hit song. I hope he will be singing it at one of the Idol finales.
