Flashy. Theatrical. Glam rocker. These are just a few of the descriptions people placed on Adam Lambert in 2007, when he became something of a household name appearing on the eighth season of “American Idol,” finishing as runner-up to Kris Allen.

In the seven years since, Lambert has released three
acclaimed albums, and sold about 2.5 million records and more than 5
million singles worldwide. He’s also served as lead singer for Queen the
past few years and did a stint on “Glee,” combining his acting and
musical chops.
Lambert’s latest release, “The Original High,” debuted at
no. 3 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and the artist is currently on tour to
support the album, stopping at the Lincoln Theatre on Saturday, March 5.
The singer has never been shy about his sexual
orientation, and has long been active in LGBT rights. Recently, Lambert
took time to talk with the Blade about his music, sexual orientation and
what it’s like to replace a legend.
WASHINGTON BLADE: What can those coming out to the Lincoln Theatre on March 5 expect from you that night? What defines an Adam Lambert concert?
ADAM LAMBERT: This show is definitely kind of a
product of my evolution. I’m exploring new ideas and new sounds. It’s
been seven years since “Idol” and I’ve definitely grown up a bit. I
approach things in different ways now and have learned a lot about my
fans and myself as an artist, and musically, I’ve grown and broadened my
palate, so to speak.
