Adam Lambert Miami Beach Gay Pride Press Conference 2013
Written by DC Cruz Note: Bolding added by Q3
Now, if you are not too familiar with Adam then let me break it down for you. Adam has multiple albums that have led to world tours, over 200 million hits on Vevo alone, and one of the strongest male vocals of our time. Did I mention the man can deliver some serious "soulful Rock -n- Roll music." He has ballads that will have you screaming at the top of your lungs as you beg and plead "What do you want from me"? (which happens to be one of his biggest hits).
Okay, so maybe I went a little overboard, but it’s not every day that you get to meet a person that is so down to earth as well as completely open with his feelings that come with being a gay man in the spotlight during this historic time for the LGBT community. I actually had a chance to ask Adam how he felt about being a Gay Icon during this historic time for our community. His response was one that both humbled and filled me with joy. It really inspired me to see that Adam was so knowledgeable about the struggles we go through on a daily basis. This movement for equal rights is something that we, the LGBT community, have been fighting for years and the fact that he is here supporting us demonstrate us how important this is to us. No matter how far you make it in life you should never forget where you came from and Adam is a prime example of that. His presence throughout this movement is something we shouldn’t take for granted.
Adam expressed to me that while touring the world, he has personally been able to see how repression towards the LGBT community around the world is still actively going on. Upon returning to the United States, he stated that he noticed how much more liberal we are as a community and that it really sets the tone to the reality that we are living in today. As he expressed his thoughts to me I could see myself, along with countless others, shine through his words. "You can really feel the electricity in the air and the change that's coming." Adam later elaborated that he doesn’t fully understand why there is so much discrimination towards the LGBT in a country that is so accepting in people’s rights such as ours.
I must really state that throughout the entire press conference Lambert was nothing like you would have expected in person. He was extremely down to earth, making jokes, and even letting us know that he had a long night of partying in South Beach in clubs such as Mova, Score and Twist; which was why he was feeling so "attached" to his Golden Shades. He also let us know that he will soon be returning to the studio to work on his next EP, so expect new music from Lambert soon!
Aside from stating the obvious that you should ALL go check out Lambert tomorrow in Miami Beach for Gay Pride; I heard something about Adam receiving the key to Miami Beach! Is it true or is it false..? There is only one way to find out and that is to come show your support for the LGBT community at this year’s Gay Pride in South Beach.

Ten selected winners, plus one guest each, will be chosen to attend the
AT&T Live Proud VIP experience with Lambert. VIP winners will

"I want to encourage LGBTQ youth to live proud and let their voice be
heard," said Lambert. "Whether it's changing a status on Facebook or
kissing in public, live free."
The Trevor Project is the leading national organization providing crisis
intervention and suicide prevention services to LGBTQ youth. In addition
to operating the only national crisis lifeline for LGBTQ teens and
young adults, The Trevor Project offers unique suicide prevention
services to youth in digital spaces, including counseling via instant
message through TrevorChat and the largest online social network
specifically for young LGBTQ people, TrevorSpace.
AT&T and The Trevor Project will work to enhance Trevor's communications and improve outreach to LGBTQ youth in crisis.
"AT&T recognizes the importance of marketing and respecting all diverse
segments, and the LGBTQ segment is no different," said, Jennifer Jones ,
vice president of diversity markets. "We show our support through our
creation of unique marketing campaigns, advertising in LGBTQ media and
sponsoring LGBTQ events."
The "Live Proud" campaign will cross the nation this summer as AT&T
activates sponsorships at select Pride events. To learn more about the
specific sponsorships, visit www.attliveproud.com.
AT&T has a long history of LGBTQ support. Starting in 1975, AT&T became
one of the first Fortune 500 companies to adopt a non-discrimination
policy toward sexual orientation, and in 1999, one of the first to adopt
domestic partner benefits for LGBTQ employees. Since 2004, AT&T has
been listed in the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation's "Best
Places to Work" for LGBTQ employees and has received a perfect score on
the Human Rights Campaign's Annual Corporate Equality Index (CEI).
Among others, AT&T supports employees with the following:
- Health insurance benefits offered to domestic partners beginning in 1999 and, since 2005, to legally recognized partners.
- Qualified pre-retirement survivor annuity pension offered to spouses and partners.
- Health insurance plan coverage for transition-related treatment of transgender individuals.
- Mandatory training for new hires on AT&T's non-discrimination policy, including sexual orientation and gender identity.
- Outreach to the LGBTQ community including recruiting, marketing, community involvement and support for LGBTQ equality.
AT&T's efforts to ensure all employees have the opportunity to be fully
included in the company's mission is further evidenced by its 11
employee resource groups, which offer opportunities for employees to
learn, network, collaborate and develop professionally. All of these
groups, including LEAGUE at AT&T - the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender and Allies Organization at AT&T – are supportive
partners in AT&T's business. LEAGUE at AT&T was founded by
employees in 1987, making it the first LGBTQ employee resource group in
corporate America.
Beyond workplace equality, AT&T's products and services also reflect and
appeal to the diverse markets the company serves, including the LGBTQ
community. For more information on AT&T's commitment to equality
