10.18.11 Adam News - More about Advocate Article

Photo by Eric Schwabel for “The Advocate” November cover. More from Eric: blog.schwabelstudio.com/2011/10/17/adam-lambert-photographed-by-eric-schwabel-for-the-advocate/


From Eric's blog.....

"I had the great pleasure of working with Adam Lambert recently for this Advocate cover shoot, which came out today. This was one of the more unique shoot days I’ve ever experienced (on par with photographing Kirk Douglas at his home), as the Advocate wanted not just the set-up cover shot, but a number of candid photos of Adam going about his day. So, about 15 seconds after we were introduced, I was in his car, speeding through Hollywood, my crew following behind. We joked that it was a slightly awkward introduction, I met him, I’m in his car, I have a camera in his face. We both knew the job though and went about it, and snapped some pretty great shots, not all of which made it to publication."

"Adam and I spent a bit of time chatting in the car between each location (and getting yelled at by a gas station manager for taking pictures — but I was able to calm him down…). It turned out we were both headed to Burning Man in a few weeks, so that was the main topic of discussion."

No One Taught Adam Lambert “How to Be a Gay Celebrity,” But He’s a Quick Study
10.17.11 Source: Autostraddle.com



"Our gay boyfriend Adam Lambert is featured in The Advocate this week, where he’s asked many brand-new, never-before-heard questions like “what was up with that kiss at the American Music Awards?” (which I believed I crowned ‘The Best Gay Happening of 2009′ in some interview somewhere):

“I kind of asked for it in a way… not everything is so premeditated as people think it is. There are things that just happen, there are things you just do. It was an impulse… [it was] a bit reactionary on my part. I think I was a little overwhelmed with everything. It was me reacting a little bit to that ‘you’re not gay enough’ thing. At that moment for whatever reason I was like, Well, is this gay enough? It was me being a little bit pissed off!”

…..

"I feel like he’s done a pretty good job so far — and bonus! He’s now in love, dating a Finland Big Brother winner with a name like a Nordic God: Sauli Koskinen. He makes Adam feel grounded, inspired, and happy!"

Glambert Talks Controversy & His New Album
10.17.11 Source: PerezHilton.com



An album that we are waiting for with bated breath!

Adam Lambert was interviewed in this month's issue of The Advocate and he doesn't hold back on anything. Remember when he made out with his male keyboard player at the American Music Awards? Yeah, he talks about that. Remember that Details photo shoot? Yeah, he goes there! And of course, he chats about his next album, due out next month, which he calls his most personal to date.

......

We'd like to think there will be a time when people aren't defined by their sexuality, but if nothing else, at least people like Adam are doing what they can to work towards that. Good for him.

Now, give us a taste of the new album!!! A single, a sampler - ANYTHING!!!

News from the Studio

mindchnger mindchnger
OMFG he's in da studio with the dude who cowrote Gaga's Highway Unicorn... I LOVE THAT SONG

songspub.com/songwriters.php?id=175

Brian Lee
Represented Songwriters:

"Contributing to a best-selling album before the age of 30 is no easy feat. For 29 year-old producer Brian Lee, working on Lady Gaga's Born This Way was just a step in the progression. A classically-trained violin player, Lee got his start in the music industry when his band The White Tie Affair got signed to Epic Records after only posting one song on their MySpace. Moving into production seemed like the logical next step, and, before he knew it, Lee found himself working with Lady Gaga. With songwriting credit on "Americano" and "Highway Unicorn (Road to Love)" and vocal credit on "Government Hooker," Lee is proving himself to be a force to reckon with in the industry"

Looks like his other collaborator in the studio last night was JD Walker (http://songspub.com/writerproducer.php?id=154). I love when there are pics!
