Adam Lambert Rolling Stone Interview: “I’m Gay” (Video)

The new Adam Lambert Rolling Stone interview will hit newsstands tomorrow.  In it, Lambert confirms what most of the nation already knew.

“I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay,” the American Idol runner-up says.

“I’m proud of my sexuality,” he adds. “I embrace it. It’s just another part of me.”

Lambert, 27, adds however, that he’s not the poster boy for gay rights.

“I’m trying to be a singer, not a civil rights leader.”

Lambert admits that he was very uneasy about admitting that he was gay while still on Idol because contestants are under a strict media embargo.  Adam Lambert wanted to do it on his “own terms.”  He adds that producers were open to him handling it however he wanted.

“I was worried that [coming out] would be so sensationalized that it would overshadow what I was there to do, which was sing,” Lambert tells the mag. “I’m an entertainer, and who I am and what I do in my personal life is a separate thing. It shouldn’t matter. Except it does. It’s really confusing.”
