You might not think it from looking at the cover of Adam Lambert's debut album For Your Entertainment, but under the glam-rock trappings lies a normal, albeit very talented, guy. The singer-songwriter, who is currently on his Asian leg of the Glam Nation tour, will be performing at the Formula 1 Grand Prix on Sept 25 at the Padang stage and Sept 26 at the Zone 1 Stage.

Which is quite fitting really, as Lambert is a bit of a car geek. When the runner-up to 2009's American Idol was awarded a car of his choice by the show's sponsor, Ford, Lambert tellingly chose a black Mustang Convertible. (Winner Kris Allen on the other hand, chose a hybrid sedan.) We asked Lambert what makes him vroom.



What's the deal with the convertible?

Well, cars are fun, I think they're cool! They're not a serious extra-curricular interest but I like them. I got the car from Ford for being on American Idol of course, but it's still very cool, nonetheless.



What's your dream car?

I really want to get a Maserati. I love the lines and the design, although I haven't had a chance to test drive one just yet. I'll probably do it when I finally get home to Los Angeles, then I'll finally get to see how yummy it feels to try one!



That's got a V8 just like the Mustang Convertible GT…

And I'll always take a V8 engine over a four-cylinder, of course, because they sound better and they're a lot more fun to drive!



How do you feel about coming to Singapore to perform for the F1 concert?

I'm very excited, and it's going to be a lot of fun. I hear there are going to be a lot of other artistes there, so actually I'm hoping to be able to observe other performances. And I'm excited to bring my music to the people of Singapore and to basically have a good time! DERRYN WONG

When does he have time to drive and how often is his car where he is? Wonder if he ever rents a car to go sightseeing on his own.
