"Between the Supreme Court decision to legalise same-sex marriage in all 50 US states, and the positive reaction to Caitlin Jenner, it’s clear that the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community will be an important new segment of television influencers going forward.



Whether LGBT or straight, the ability to influence consumers to watch a TV show or commercial, or buy an advertiser’s product, can make any entertainer more marketable.



“As evidenced by the critical acclaim for Laverne Cox as Sophia Burset in Orange is the New Black and soccer star Abby Wambach helping the US women’s team claim victory in the World Cup, entertainers who identify as LGBT are not only some of today’s most recognisable personalities — they’re highly influential as well,” Nielsen said in a post on the subject on the subject.



In fact, a recent Nielsen study found that Elton John and Barry Manilow are highly influential. 2009 American Idol runner up Adam Lambert is also big, seen as influential by 24% of Americans who recognise him."


So when will we see him in that role? OR do you think he has been approached but said "No, thank you"?
