While Adam Lambert is happy that attitudes towards LGBT+ music acts are rapidly changing, he's added that industry gatekeepers need more convincing.

The singer - who became the first openly gay artist to hit No.1 on the Billboard 200 chart with his album Trespassing back in 2012 - says that recent success stories mean the industry is slowly becoming more comfortable with artists expressing their true sexual identities.

"I think there have been a lot of things in general that have shifted within the LGBT community and mainstream acceptance," Adam told Digital Spy.
