Adam Lambert, one of the most successful American Idol alums in the show's history, said this week he'd love to return to the singing competition as a judge.

'Dude if they called me, “I’d be like yeah. Where do I sign?”' Lambert tells Hollywood Life. 'It would be very cool. It would be exciting.'

Grammy-nominated singer Adam Lambert was the star attraction at the GLAAD Media Awards in San Francisco over the weekend where Spice Girls member Mel B presented him with the Davidson/Valentini Award.

'We are right in the middle of two generations with two different perspectives but one common thread – love,' Lambert told the crowd at the Hilton Hotel in Union Square.

'With all the differences of opinion both within the LGBT community and elsewhere, the best we can do is to keep it real and to spread a message of acceptance.'

A public war of words has emerged among the staff at the South Florida Gay News after it featured an interview with Adam Lambert that was so popular it crashed the paper's website.

Publisher Norm Kent wrote in a column this week that the story was done while he was on leave and seeing it 'made my partner and me puke.'

The publisher of South Florida Gay News says he went 'ballistic' when he found out his staff had featured an interview with Adam Lambert on the cover of the newspaper while he was on leave.

The story, which broke the news that Lambert and his boyfriend had broken up, went viral and caused the paper's website to repeatedly crash due to the surge in traffic.

After Adam Lambert burst onto the scene in 2008 on American Idol, he came out publicly as a gay man on the cover of Rolling Stone.

But he just wanted to perform and wasn't comfortable taking on such titles as 'gay role model' or 'gay activist.'

That has changed.

Adam Lambert is a single man again.

The Grammy nominee and American Idol runner up says he and Sauli Koskinen, a Finnish entertainment reporter, television host and radio personality, have split up.

'It’s been kind of on its way out in the last couple of months,' Lambert tells South Florida Gay News.

Adam Lambert may not yet have a Grammy, but he's going to soon have a GLAAD Award.

GLAAD, an LGBT media advocacy organization, announced today that Lambert will receive its Davidson/Valentini Award at the San Francisco ceremony on 11 May.

The award is named after Craig Davidson, GLAAD's first executive director, and his partner Michael Valentini.  It is presented to an openly LGBT media professional who has made a significant difference in promoting equality for the LGBT community. 

When Adam Lambert was about 8 years old, he took a look at his dad's David Bowie album, Diamond Dogs, and thought it 'cool and trippy and weird.'

Little did he know then that Bowie would end up being one of his biggest influences when Lambert himself became a star.

US recording star Adam Lambert, who has been in a relationship with Finnish television personality Sauli Eerik Koskinen since 2010, is trying to end speculation that the couple is busy planning their wedding.

'I haven't actually thought about marriage at this point,' Lambert said Thursday (31 January) at the We Are Family Foundation gala in New York City.

'I want everyone to have the right to get married, of course, and I believe in that and support that fully,' he added. 'But for me, personally, it's not on the immediate horizon.'

Singer Adam Lambert turns 31 today (29 January) and is using the occasion to raise money for a cause close to his heart.

The 2008 American Idol runner-up asked his fans to donate $31 to the We Are A Family Foundation which creates and supports programs that inspire and educate people about mutual respect, understanding, and appreciation of cultural diversity.

Singer Adam Lambert used social media to examine the complexities of bullying.

As reported by the site Buzzfeed, the American Idol singer went to Twitter to discuss how best to help people who are bullied.

'I think we should encourage kids to make new friends,' Lambert wrote. 'Reach out to that kid eating alone at lunch. Focus in the positive.'

Adam Lambert has defended his controversial review of the cast of the new film Les Misérables.

The ‘For Your Entertainment’ singer drew a mixed reaction for a review of the musical, where he accused such as Russell Crowe and Hugh Jackman of ‘pretending to be singers’.

In the film, director Tom Hooper asked his all-star cast to sing live on set in order to capture the emotion on screen.

On 30 December, Lambert said: ‘With that cast, they should have studio recorded and sweetened the vocals.
