**The article and headline was in response to Adam's tweets from 11-11-14** (below)
Anyone find it interesting how straight male Pop stars r pandering to gay audiences lately!? Should we be flattered? Progress or strategy?
— ADAM LAMBERT (@adamlambert) November 11, 2014
No shade. I just wanna hear about music! Not be teased on weather someone MIGHT be bi curious or gay or straight. Who cares?! Lol

Whoa crazy night on Twitter.
As long as he keeps his great attitude he'll be fine.
That's celebrity realness. As long as his opinions make headlines - twisted or not - he shouldn't worry.
That's Twitter Twat World Twisted for ya'll.
WTF you expect Adam. Smh
Don't worry sweetheart, we've got your back!
What does he expect poster @3:25 AM? Probably for people to stop twisting everything he says and tell the truth!
One thing for sure, when our fabulous worldwide superstar speaks, people listen; and react and react and react!
Haters "gonna" hate; so, YOU GO ADAM! Keep giving them something to think and talk about!
WHEN ADAM LAMBET TALKS, PEOPLE LISTEN; and that's a GOOD THING! Just saying!!
5:12 AM Here
correction/ on last line; I left the R out of Lambert; oh no! ha ha. Sorry about that.
Adam Lambert is a man who has a brain and uses it... love that he throws out stuff to think about.. In this plastic show business world so lucky to have a REAL person to follow .Adam has mega talent,great looks and intelligence.. How rare in the world of make believe.Love this man for all that he is
Adam did the same exact thing with the Details photo shoot in 2009, pandering to straight women. He's such a hypocrite.
I'm glad Adam brings up interesting and worthy topics to think about. He's such an introspective person and loves a good debate. That being said, I'll be glad when this little kerfluffle is over.

Oops! Double post. Sorry. But as long as I'm here again, I'll just say that I really don't think this is "pandering" on either side: straight to gay or gay ro straight. I just think it's marketing, plain and simple. Sometimes it's done well, sometimes not, whether it's being done by Adam or Joe Jonas or whoever. But it's no crime; it's just a strategy.
@5:12 and @5:22
Great posts!
@ALL commenters, tagged or not
Anyone can post Anon here (also a tagged person). Please let's not group all the Anons 'the same' and certainly not with the like of Anons @3:25 and @5:40! Please let's ignore the stupid and hateful posts re Adam.
Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion whether others agree with it or not.
Just need to let Adam know that he's my boyfrand and can say whatever he wants!!! I'm listening and enjoying so much!!!
RE: Details photo shoot, Adam said he was Gay. No pandering about it unless woman want to dream and that's nobody's business. Adam is no hypocrite. He is G R E A T !!!
Explain how what Nick Jonas did with the Out Magazine shoot is any different then what Adam did with the Details shoot. That's what makes Adam a hypocrite.
First-I read all the comments here whether I agree with them or not--even Adam opens himself up to discussion on his Twitter. Only those which are hate speech I ignore. Second-I have to agree with Anon 7:28 about the Details photo shoot. That being said, I think he was encouraged to do it by his handlers to offset the AMA gay kiss. Remember when he used to say he was "bi-curious" in the beginning? I think he is now his own spokesperson and is more savvy.

7:28 am, i'm just guessing but maybe one pic in a magazine where Adam was fully clothed is a little different than Joe stripping in gay clubs as well as doing the underwear grabbing pics in a magazine.
I tend to think it is all marketing and maybe it's a sign of progress that a straight male is doing it now too to an audience he wouldn't have 5 years ago.
I would say Adam's tweet was maniputulated to create a headline. He just wanted to hear people's opinions' IMO
OMG , if Adam did what Nick Jonas did (correct way to do a crotch grab), he would be crucified, and we all know it.
Remember that picture of Adam with his hand down his pants? That was out there on the Internet to be seen. He survived it. Nevertheless I would prefer a picture of a fully clothed Adam Lambert to a naked Adam Levine or crotch grabbing Jonas any day. And yes, it is all marketing.
My 2 cents worth.....and my "take" and personal understanding of it all. Which could be right or totally wrong or somewhere in between :))))))))
Adam's latest tweet was commenting on the fact that the article's headline, "Adam Lambert Is Tired Of Straight Pop Stars Baiting Gay Fans. Are You?", posted in the thread topic, (and perhaps others, that we, or at least I, may not be aware of), didn't reflect what he actually asked and then stated in his other tweets.
He didn't say he was "tired of straight pop stars baiting gay fans", as the headline declared. He WAS curious about what others opinions are on that subject, and asked his twitter followers what their take on it is. Contrary to some *opinions*, not all of his fans/followers are straight middle aged females, and he got plenty of responses from his gay male fans as well.
He's obviously seen, just like we have, the media speculations/hype about Nick Jonas' photo shoot.. (which admittedly caused my eyebrows to raise just a bit... not that I care, but I was under the impression he was a bit more conservative than that..but then I don't follow his career closely, TBH) and the intent. I just initially thought he was being kind of *naughty/sexy* for his fans: straight females, gay males, whatever... And as everyone has said, Adam would be crucified if he ever did that.. which knowing him, will never happen.. (He doesn't have to take his clothes off to be sexy, IMHO...yeah, I'm a straight female and I find Adam to be VERY attractive/sexy..period.., but that's another topic :))) and I digress. It happens...).
Adam indicated he ultimately doesn't care what the person's sexuality/orientation is..but was musing on the possible reasons behind the blurring of lines, the "crossover" and perhaps the "openly" reaching out of straight male singers to the gay community, which is something we may not have seen before. But we HAVE seen this in the case of female pop stars.. Which is what Adam has discussed previously, the "double standard" that has existed until recently in music, but is **perhaps** changing, along with the times...
And (my thoughts here...) he may have been talking about the MEDIA speculations about whether a pop star (for instance Nick Jonas) is gay, straight, or bi-curious..and not just the straight male purposely creating the question of his own sexuality himself, although it has DEFINITELY gotten a lot of media attention.
So the question remains re the Nick Jonas pics, actions: Is it purely hype to get media attention (which is obviously working) to sell the new music, is it reaching out to the Gay community (as Adam put it, perhaps "pandering"?) for the same reason, or is it, as Adam asked, *progress* in the quest toward the acceptance of all sexualities, without definite lines that cannot be crossed by straight male pop stars?? Adam suggested it doesn't matter to him, but was more interested in the music, not the speculations..
As for Adam's Details shoot, the pictures were intended as fantasy obviously, and to illustrate the premise and title of the article, and there was no attempt to suggest Adam was anything but a gay man, once you read the accompanying article..
Some quotes from the Details article:
"For the Love of Adam Lambert
Why Does Every Woman in America Want to Sleep with the American Idol?"
"Still, he says, "I think it's weird that I'm having this effect on women. It's flattering. I've never had underwear thrown at me before. Clearly there's something significant about it, because there aren't a lot of openly gay men in the entertainment industry." "
"It's a testament to the sheer mainstream power of American Idol that a gay man with an unabashed affection for eyeliner and nail polish has emerged from this year's competition as a new American sex symbol. "I think it's beautiful," Lambert says. "That's the way it should be. It shouldn't matter what a person's sexual preference is—it doesn't change their appeal." "
"He smiles. "I don't see how all this is any different than—let's take a modern sex symbol like Brad Pitt. How many of these women who fantasize about him actually get to sleep with him?" he asks. "It's all fantasy—that's what entertainment is. I'm here to entertain you, and if my sexuality is apparent and you respond to it, and you're attracted to it, then great, I'm doing my job. It ain't happening anyway!" "

After this raunchy display on the national media, including E news, who seemed to give Nick Jonas a pass and I guess, thought it was cute.
I wonder if Nick Jonas will be barred from Good Morning America for a few years, and be left out of all the award shows; and even, God forbid; not be played on the top forty radio and other stations! I just wonder?
What Adam done with "song interpertation", on the AMA's, in my opinion, was kid stuff compared to what I saw Nick Jonas do as shown on E NEWS.
DOUBLE STANDARD, do you really need to ask??
Personally, I couldn't believe they would give him that much time and show it on that show.
Of course, PH had to tweet Adam, to say that NJ was his bud and implied that Adam was shady; but not a peek out of him when Adam won the Rock Award of the year with Queen! Go figure!
Adam Lambert sure keeps us busy, and happy. So proud of this gorgeou, intellligent thinking man!
So proud to be his fan! Those pictures from last night were just beautiful.
All the monsters from MJ's Thriller is coming out of the wood work, almost time for our man to hit the rode again with Queen. He is going to make a lot of people happy around the world!
@7:28 am
Is that you? I bet it is, and you know who you are. Nice of you to join the discussion, even though it does sound a bit harsh towards one of the most kindest non-judgemental young talent out there. But, he would be the first to say you are entitled to your opinion!
I also say you are entitled to your own opinion; but not to your own facts.
@ 11:20
Now that most people are going anon, you cannot guess who says anything. So stop guessing, and just concentrate on your own comments.
Adam confesses of a liason with a woman in Rolling stone. Just maybe he is afraid to admit he has bi feelings? He said his liason was personal. no need for discussion. I think gay artists bait straight audiences. have been for years.
the world is full of hypocrisy. that is why nothing ever gets accomplished. one says one thing and turns around and does another. Adam Lambert wants the best of both worlds. I always have thought that about him. what he finds in men he can't find in a woman. vice versa.
Adam loves adoration from both men and women, straight or gay. He thrives on it, it is what pays the bills.
LOL so typical.
@Anon 12:08 PM
Explain please :)) Typical of what??
Adam is definitely right about fantasy crushes. If you have a crush on Brad Pitt; realistically you are never actually going to be with him. So for the many women who have fantasy crushes on Adam , they know they are never going to actually be with him. But that's really not any different, it's a fantasy and that's just fine.
Oh boy all the peeps with the inside track to Adam's mind crack me up.
1:59 PM, me too.
I think it's pretty cool that Adam is communicating his thoughts and input (still) with us- his fans. And actually wanting to learn more.... Seeking input from us.
I hope one day he doesn't reach a point where he doesn't or rarely does .... And becomes "unreachable".... Out of necessity.
Adam has been known to grab his b*lls when he's performs on stage and yes, he's fully clothed but he still does it.
Glitzylady, so typical of media to twist something for a headline. Thought that was obvious. Sorry if it wasn't.
From 12:18pm
Storm in a teacup.
7:55
Well he's got what to grab and he does it oh so convingcinly! :)
... convincingly... sorry!
@Anon 8:54 PM
Thanks :)))
@Anon 1:59 PM
Adam put the questions out there for comment on twitter.. We all have opinions.. And theories.. And perhaps some personal insights. Most of what is posted here on this thread is each person's individual take on the subject.. As bloggers, we discuss. Many here have followed Adam's career from the beginning so have access to a lot of previous info.... Adam was wondering the same things we were. Obviously no one has access to his inner thoughts..
Anon 7:55...
Based upon some of Adam concert experiences... If Adam doesn't grab his, err...GB (or, b*lls as you put it;))...
there are usually some enthusiastic fans in attendance who appear quite willing do it for him. (lol)
May as well be him doing the grabbing. ;D
