I'm still a bit confused about this new Adam interview. Will it be played along with the QAL documentary on April 29th or is this an interview for promotion of the upcoming documentary and will be aired earlier? The one good thing is Adam's sexuality will not be the MAJOR topic this time and his career and rise with Queen will take center stage. He has sure come a long way. He has accomplished a lot and deserves that recognition. I still think it must be for an interview on 20/20 in the lead-up to the QAL special. Promo. I googled that interviewer, and he’s one of the contributors to 20/20 and other ABC “news” (infotainment) shows. Can you imagine what Adam has had to go through...oh you sing and what about your sexuality.. made me cringe ,even though the rest of the interview has a lot of Adam's voice.. That was great to hear just how remarkable he has always been..Sure hope the next interview is all about his supreme talent

Very sweet that Benedict was so open about Adam's contribution to opening the doors for others. Some in the media pretend to not remember how they put Adam on display and only concentrated on one part of him like nothing else was interesting about him. He put up with so much crap that those who came after him did not. Gay, gay, gay was all they focused on. I guess that is why I find it annoying when they claim that others are so bold now. I guess they are and it is a good thing that someone's sexuality is no longer such a big deal. A little more US radio play would be a good thing for Adam if it really no longer matters that much. I still have my doubts.

One was with this guy on a music show. He kept asking Adam questions about his sexuality and Adam answered them all. But the guy was still at it and would not let it go. It was as if he just could not understand what being gay meant. I was wondering what else is there to tell you? He is attracted to men and other than a demonstration what more do you need to know? Some would just not allow Adam's talent to take center stage. He was there primarily to talk about his sexuality. When Sam and others came along their talent and success were what mattered most. If their sexuality came up fine. If it did not that was okay too.

twitter.com/BillboardPride/status/1106585899863863296Billboard Pride @billboardpride Pride Profile: 10 questions with singer, songwriter & @adamlambert collaborator @benedictcork blbrd.cm/IsHBvV When English singer-songwriter Benedict Cork was asked to help Adam Lambert write his newest track “Feel Something,” he was in awe. The 25-year-old songwriter watched as a teenager when Lambert broke through on American Idol and move into the pop world as an openly gay performer. “I think he's one of, if not the, best male vocalist on the planet -- he's out of this world,” Cork tells Billboard. “He paved the way for people like Sam Smith and Olly Alexander and Troye [Sivan] -- and me. People are way more accepting of artists who are super open about their sexuality and their identity.” Now, after working with the likes of Lambert, fellow songwriter MNEK and others, Cork is making his way back to his first love of performing -- the singer started out as a performer in piano bars around London at age 18, before signing with BMG at 19. What he lacked then, Cork says, is experience. ... Cork is certainly aware of his position as a queer artist trying to make it in the mainstream music industry. But he says that thanks to the likes of Lambert, Sivan and Smith, he no longer feels restricted by his sexuality. “Because of them, so many more artists can come forward and kind of share their stories and share their voices -- whereas a while ago, it was a bit harder to do so,” he says. “I'm so lucky that it's 2019 and I'm able to do this.”
