BustleAdam Lambert's Moonbase 8 Character Is Unlike Any Role He's Had Before Of all the American Idol contestants who have gone on to achieve greater fame outside of the show, one of the most successful has been Adam Lambert. The singer has sold over 3 million albums in his solo career and sold out countless venues as the lead singer for the legendary rock band Queen. But now Lambert is taking on a new challenge, one that will see him using his acting skills and comedy chops instead of his considerable pipes in the new Showtime sitcom Moonbase 8. So what do we know about Adam Lambert's Moonbase 8 character?
For starters, the character constitutes Lambert's first substantial non-musical acting role, and he's confirmed to appear in just one episode. The series is about a trio of inept astronauts (comedy maestros Fred Armisen, Tim Heidecker, and John C. Reilly) who prepare for a potential moon mission at a desert outpost. Lambert shows up briefly in the trailer, looking nearly unrecognizable sans makeup and glittery stage costumes. Instead, Lambert appears in a gray T-shirt and dark hoodie, the same outfit worn by his cohorts in the scene played by Alia Shawkat and Thomas Mann. You can take a look below at the trailer, where Lambert appears around the 0:34 mark.

Great to see Adam acting in a show!!! I thought Adam played the Billy character on Moonbase in a very similar way to how he played Elliot in Glee. The segment at 14-15 min into Moonbass, where Billy is talking alone with his old colleague, reminds me so much of the scene in Glee where Blaine confronts Elliot about Kurt. Same mannerisms, same inflections in the way he talks, same facial expressions, etc. I would like to see Adam play a totally different character in a different way. I'd really like to see Adam play George Michael in a biopic.

Wow! Can Adam do anything without it being picked apart? Most of us haven't even seen it yet. I'll try to pull it up today and hopefully enjoy it. But if he did a good job with the project he was given that should matter more than if he put in a groundbreaking and award winning performance. Did anyone really expect he would do that this early in his acting career? Did he do a good job with the material he was given? Don't need the details as I would like to see it play out myself.

Did anyone really expect he would do that this early in his acting career? there must be a reason why he has career as a singer not as an actor Because he IS a singer and that is his main career. Where have you been and how hard is that to understand? He is gaining experience and opportunities. But he has received good reviews for the small parts he has had. That matters more than sniping from the sidelines from the same naysayers with no clout. He would have no career if anyone listened or cared what trolls think.
