In the hours since we published the initial article/interview here on Adam Lambert 24/7 News, the author of the interview has updated and expanded on his conversation with Adam Lambert, due to  much interest and feedback by fans, and published an additional article:

His statement prefacing the expanded article/interview in addition to the first one published on 3-19-16 (the articles/interviews are linked below: both are different and are stand-alone parts of the interview as a whole,  so please take time to read and enjoy and gain a little more insight into Adam's career, music, and experiences!)


"The moment my Journal Sentinel interview with Adam Lambert was posted Saturday night, ahead of his Riverside Theater show this Tuesday, the pop star's devoted Glamberts wasted no time sharing the story, and sharing some candid feedback.

I can't recall a time where so many fans shared one of my Q&As before. As I write this, the interview is currently the second most popular story on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel website.

And while I received some appreciative emails and tweets, several fans also expressed their disappointment (in some cases, severe disappointment) that my interview addressed topics like the possible ripple effects from Lambert's controversial American Music Awards performance in 2009, but it did not address his new music or other recent accomplishments. That's a fair criticism.

So here are some more insights from my interview with Lambert, where he discussed the making of his latest album "The Original High," the songs on the album he's most proud of, and his experiences touring with Queen. Lambert also told me he's honoring David Bowie by covering "Let's Dance" on this tour, so that should be a treat Tuesday."

INTRO: "Never before, and never again, had there been the level of hype surrounding an "American Idol" contestant as there was during the 2009 season. He gained a passionate fan base, later dubbed "Glamberts," with his dynamic, Freddie Mercury-style vocals and dramatic stage presence."

Q.Do you ever feel, as some of your fans do, you're not as successful as you deserve to be?

A. This isn't the Olympics, this is music. It's not about getting a medal, it's about moving people, it's about connecting with people. It's easy to get wrapped up in the business. It's not really why I got into it in the first place, so I like to keep my eye not on the prize, but on the experience of getting to create music. I'm very lucky.

By far one of the better "tour" interviews, allowing Adam to engage in more substantial topics and revealing what we admire most - his keen insight and ability to maintain balance and focus on what really matters. "This is not the Olympics, this is music" .........sigh.

I agree. His is very astute about the music business and he is true to his own instincts about what he wants out of his career. His Olympics comment is spot on. I just hope he has a long, productive career in show business in whatever aspects of it he finds himself. I know music is his first love. He is one of the BEST celebrity interviewers there is.

ADAM's such a down-to-earth guy ... no bells & whistles ... just straight talk!! That's another of the reasons I'm a Glambert & I can't see myself as anything else in the future ... just his fan .. no one else I care to follow!!

Very insightful and intelligent answers! No suprise, of course... But, it always feels good to hear his well-rounded and balanced perspective and enjoy his acumen for thought-provoking articulation. You make us proud, Adam. :))

I didn't see the comments the writer eluded to? Very astute of him to re-evaluate after the feedback from the fans.

@CeeJay
The comments were in response to his initial tweet of his review... It was awesome of him to acknowledge and post more of the interview... Good man. And so appreciated..
