Adam Lambert Reveals It Was 'Tricky' To Be Openly Gay After Competing On 'American Idol'

Times have changed for the LGBTQ+ community since Adam Lambert has competed on “American Idol.”

In honor of Pride Month, the Grammy nominee sat down with students at the Mosaic LGBT Youth Centre in London on Thursday, where he gave kids advice and discussed his own experience as an openly gay musician. 

While Adam is currently out and proud, he revealed it was tricky coming out after placing second in the singing competition show in 2009.
