Breaking News: Adam Lambert Holds Boyfriend’s Hand
After spending many months coyly ducking the matter of his sexuality while he competed on American Idol this season and after AI judge Kara DioGuardi pretty much outed him in a recent interview, AI runner-up Adam Lambert bravely stepped out of the West Hollywood, CA club Guys & Dolls last night while holding his boyfriend Drake LaBry’s hand for all the world to see:
I understand that the lovebirds did some shopping together at Kitson before their big night out. Adam apparently dropped some major $$$ on a Marc Jacobs blazer for Drake — sounds like lurve to me:
While something this benign should be a total non-issue, I think it’s great that Lambert is finally feeling free enough to be who he is without fear of reprisal from anyone else. I can absolutely understand why he (or anyone for that matter) would not want to openly discuss matters of sexuality while they are competing in front of a national audience for something as large as American Idol. But, if DioGuardi is to be believed, Adam wasn’t hiding anything at all behind the scenes on the show:
I’m just really happy to see the lad proudly being true to himself … and if a simple hand-hold is where it all begins, then so be it. Those jeans, on the other hand, are a might frightful and should be burned immediately. Sexuality be damned, I still take issue with some of Glambert’s styling choices. OY!

He definitely should not be hiding that hot boyfriend of his – if only to make sure everyone knows he’s taken!!

Clay Aiken went all bitchy at Adam last week so I just need to put it to Clay that this is how real queens do it, proud and not in the least bit bothered by what anyone has to say.
I don’t watch American Idol but “Team Adam” for fierceness.

Good looking couple. Seems they’ve been solid for a while. I’m happy for them and wish them the best.

Im going to order my boyfriend a pair of stonewashed ‘glambert’ jeans and make him wear them.

Trent,
I am a little suprised that you didn’t even put former Vice President Dick Cheney’s most recent comments on Gay Marriage in your newsflash. For those who don’t know, he made a statement saying Freedom means freedom for all and that gays should be able to have any arrangement that they wish. I am glad he finally voiced his opinion about this. I am proud of my fellow republican today.

what a handsome couple they are!!! Good for him for stepping out with his boyfriend, holding hands for all the world to see! Bravo! I love Adam and can’t wait to hear his album (whenever it arrives!)
June 2nd, 2009 at 11:05 am
@anna — I actually just heard about his comments, just added a newslink to the story :)

His boyfriend is beautiful! They make a cute couple.
June 2nd, 2009 at 11:39 am
Hmm, his boyfriend kind of looks like Shia Lebouf in that last pic.
June 2nd, 2009 at 12:57 pm
I am so glad he feels confident to be who he really is, it makes him such a BIG STAR to just be hisself fu*k anyone who doesn’t like it they can turn their heads!! You go Adam!! Cute boyfriend!
June 2nd, 2009 at 1:08 pm
Adam sure has got himself a hottie.
June 2nd, 2009 at 1:08 pm
Is his name Drake or Drew?
June 2nd, 2009 at 1:20 pm
@joyfulJ — It’s Drake … dunno why I wrote Drew :( Sorry!! Fixed!!
June 2nd, 2009 at 2:07 pm
Adam is extremely good looking!
June 2nd, 2009 at 2:25 pm
I don’t understand why some people (not you Trent! ;)) think that every gay celebrity needs to make a public announcement about their sexuality. If they don’t answer then they’re automatically hiding something and are still in the closet. Straight people never have to, so why expect a gay person to? He has a boyfriend and he’s living his life the way he wants to. Kudos to him.
June 2nd, 2009 at 3:43 pm
so cute!!!! but not the clothes
June 2nd, 2009 at 3:58 pm
lol @ Glambert
June 2nd, 2009 at 10:01 pm
Oh I love them! Adam is the best, and I love seeing him so happy. I love the fact that he doesn’t give a f-k what anyone might say, he just does what he does. That’s respect.
Can’t wait to hear his music!!!
BTW, Adam so needs to help his BF dress better….
June 2nd, 2009 at 10:11 pm
Yaay! Love you Adam! Btw I think you might need to change the name on the second photo from Drew to Drake if I’m right? Love u Trent x (:
June 2nd, 2009 at 10:56 pm
