Is Glambert The New Freddie Mercury???
Talk about a match made in heaven!
Publicly closeted homosexual, Adam Lambert, and Queen???
After Lambert's performance with the rock legends on the American Idol finale last week, Queen guitarist Brian May told Rolling Stone magazine that the band is toying around with the idea of Glambert becoming Queen's permanent frontman!
Wow!
Says May: "…[Drummer Roger Taylor] and I are definitely hoping to have a meaningful conversation with [Lambert] at some point. It's not like we, as Queen, would rush into coalescing with another singer just like that. It isn't that easy. But I'd certainly like to work with Adam. That is one amazing instrument he has there."
It just goes to show that losing American Idol can be more beneficial than winning in the long run!
Glamberella's got quite the career in front of him!
Would U like to see Lambert fronting Queen???

I really don't like Adam, I'm sorry! I just don't. He's a amazing singer, but I cannot handle the facial expressions and screaming. I just think he will probably made it to Broadway…or something!!
NO!!! Adam should do his own thing.
I was not an Adam supporter, thought he was too over the top (and I'm a gay rights activist b4 ppl start going there) and not the right voice for Idol but YES YES YES (and I was AGAINST Paul Rodgers for the record). It would be incredible!
i bet my kidney that more than half of you that are saying adam should replace freaking freddie mercury either haven't heard Queen yet or just plain tone deaf. c'mon no one can replace a legend!
hell ya i would!!! and adam n freddie are very similar, they both are fabulous singers who can hit any notes and they're both gay (adam could be bi but i think he's gay)
Crap no - he does not need to ride on the coat tails of those has beens….
I am tired of all the speculation about Adam's sexuality. IT is none of anyone's business and he certainly doesn't have to justify anything. What should be noted is that he seems to be a very nice gentleman. He is polite, he seems to be sure of himself, and come on, he defines himself as "different". And he is. I have heard few singers that are able to sing like he does. He does his own thing. During the show, I do believe he tried very hard to give a good performance each and every time, without compromising his own style to appeal to the masses. I am just so pleased that he doesn't have the same boring sound that nearly everyone has. He has a talent that sets him apart. And shame on you perez for calling him "publicly closeted" that is a mean thing to say and i doubt if he would make nasty comments about you like that.
Yes I would love it so long as he didn't feel he had to be a cover for Freddy Mercury's stuff. He should only do it if they can collaborate on new songs - then at a concert he could sing all the classics but show that he's genuinely their lead singer in his own right and respected as Adam Lambert - not someone who sounds like Freddy. I'm pretty sure that would be his proviso as well so I'm not worried. He's got a good head on his shoulders!
He sounded like Freddie to me from the beginning…and he's gay and dynamic like Freddie….so, sure - some work with Queen would make total sense, I'd love it. Not as the only thing he does, but one of them. He's perfect!!!!
Leave Queen alone, it was Freddie Mercury's baby. And that's the way it should stay, not remembered/tainted by some guy from AI. He needs to find his own calling in the music world.
As long as Adam has that classically trained operatic tenor voice, then he can cut it as Queen's lead singer.
Re: EeekJustine – I respectfully disagree. Queen may have been Freddie's baby, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they can't do anything without him as lead singer.
Re: GirlsJustWannaHaveFun – you know perez and all his sisters (other gays) are women haters - they are mad because they arent women. so you know he is not going to give a shout out to any woman they is getting more attention then him!!
He should definitely work with Queen but He should not front the band. He should do his own thing!
Queen wishes!
Lambert oughta run as fast as he can from that deal. What's Queen, 30 years old? Before Adam was born.
Queen was great. Loved Freddie Mercury but that was yesterday in a very big way.
Oh yeah, Lawence Welk called too.
Re: GirlsJustWannaHaveFun – hmmmm - wonder ms. perez isnt posting my comments!!
Abso-frikkin-lutely! He is the new Merc.
I think he has a limited OTT fanbase. He's not mainsteam at all and Kris is more likely to have success on the radio. America made the right choice by over a million votes. Not close at all.
Those piercing ear-bleeding screams will only go so far. He'll probably be wonderful on Broadway for awhile. He's cute, though. He looks like Elvis' little brother.
I think Adam would fit very nicely in Queen!!
Actually, Freddy Mercury was Parsi, born on Zanzibar & schooled in India.
Hell yes! since the first time i heard him that idea came to mind id love to see them work together, God Save the Queen
I think he is Elvis re-incarnated for our era … same loving personality, same showman, same unique style, same terrific voice. Since many of you weren't born when Elvis made it big in the 50's … I was, can tell you it is the same charisma and same special qualities Adam has, as Elvis did. Doubting Thomas's will fade away.
No way… The guy's a poser.. hes no Freddie mercury
…I'd rather see him fronting me….just sayin'
i think it would be iteresting
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES, but only if he dies of AIDS too, NOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!
YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS
NOO, this guy or drag queen can be more like K.D LANG'S daughter.
i hate this guy.
NOOO!
Freddie can NEVER be replaced!
You can't even give it a 2nd thought!
Sure he's nice but, Queen is already a good thing and replacing Freddie is like making a sequel to the Wizard of OZ this late in time!
Prez, stop ragging on Adam about his sexuality. Who he want's to kiss has nothing to do with his singing.
NO - Adam should definitely do his own thing and carve out his own niche in what is music history in the making
I think it would be amazing to collaborate on a few songs with Queen but that's that.
ADAM DO YOUR THING - DON'T STAND IN ANYONE'S SHADOW - YOU ARE AMAZING - YOUR STAR WILL SHINE BRIGHT
BLASPHEMY!!!!!!!
HELL NO!
HOW DARE YOU COMPARE HIM OR EVEN PUT HIM
IN A SENTENCE NEXT TO FREDDIE! NEVER!!!!
FREDDIE IS KING!!!! IRREPLACEABLE!
This is ridiculous! How could some pitchy guy off of American Idol replace the greatest frontman of all time? I still can't see why Brian May and Roger Taylor insist on trying to replace the irreplacable. And with an American Idol runner up? It's just wrong!
Justa anotha HOE!
He looked like he belonged with them and I actually think that will be a great move on both parts… now the new Freddy??? NOOO WAYYYY, there was only one and may his memory be preserved, he did a LOT for music. Adam is talented but I doubt he will be the next something… he has his own style and hopefully he will do good…
Omg he's the hottest gay guy ever! Anyways he would make queen way better (if that's even possible!) bit I would rather see him as an indiviual artist
Adam Lambert is the perfect replacement for the irreplaceable Freddie Mercury! I hope it happens. He can go on and make a solo album after doing a few w/ Queen! I'm absolutely dying to hear him sing Now I'm Here!!!!!!!
awesome, he's going to ruin one of my favorite bands ever.
he fucking sucks. he needs to get the fuck out of the spot light and let ACTUAL singers get recognized.
hell yes!
i thought that as soon as i saw him perform with queen.
:)
Re: MaggyMay – Maggie May - No it doesn't. It doesn't at all. No one will ever be able to replace Freddie. No one claims, that Adam would be Freddie's replacement. I think that if Queen and Adam collaboration ever happened it would be not under Queen name only, but just like they did with Paul Rogers - Queen + Adam Lambert.
I think that Adam is so far the only vocalist able to pull that off. His vocal range is insane, his stage presence is incredible. So yes - I will be waiting forward to it and to any record that Adam makes
i think they messed up over adam.
So sick of you trying to out people. You don't have that right. What is your problem? I am moving away from being annoyed to starting to actually feel sorry for you, Perez. Sad queens are just that - sad.
It's a huge honor for Adam but I want him to be Adam Lambert not that guy that replaced Freddie Mercury =/ But who knows…
I woul love to see Adam as queen frontman. I love you Adam!!!!
He is amazing. Totally the best voice they've had on idol.
He is one amazing talent. But is that the best career move for him? Is there a lot of interest seeing Queen in concert…a bunch of 60 somethings? Is that audience 45+? I don't think aging baby boomers spend the dough on music…
Nobody can top Freddie he is a legend.
Lambert can never compare.
Kris deserved to win the only thing lambert did was scream which sucked.
no..no..no!
Hell no. Please, please, please let this not be true. Adam Lambert is a flash in the pan. A fad that is going to be over in 2 years. He doesn't sing….he screeches. I honestly don't get what the big deal over him is. There is no way I think he should sing for Queen. No way in hell.
I LOVE THIS FUCKING KID AND I LOVE FREDDY MERCURY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wasn't alive when Freddy Mercury was so I would be so happy if Queen came together again!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I HATE YOU PEREZ
YOUR ROYAL FATNESS DOES NOT DESERVE TO KNOW ADAM LAMBERT
IM SURE HE DOES NOT LIKE YOUR PISSY DEMEANOR
YES… he should do it…. He'll make tons on $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
OH THIS WOULD BE AMAZING!!!!!!! AND GET OVER THE GAY THING PEREZ REALLY!!!!! I HONESTLY THING ADAM IS GOING THROUGH A DAVID BOWIE STAGE! HAHA..
Definately - he'd be more than a
good fit!
I Think he'd Be awesome as the new freddie Go Adam!!!
YES Adam + Queen = good things
Adam has the ability to do really great things with music no matter which direction he decides to take, can't wait to see him in concert heard hes unbelievable live! GO ADAM!!
This would be fatal to his career - why would he join an old band and sing songs made famous by someone else?
Re: AndrewMonroe – Do you mean WEMBLEY? Not sure they do concerts there.
As soon as I saw him sing with Queen, I knew that while no one can EVER take the place of Freddy, Adam fit right in with the guys. Great match I'd say.
He rocks!!!
He's the best singer ever!
I dont think he should go with queen.. But hey he's gonna be famous no matter what!
NO he should just go straight to Broadway and do some crossdressing role.
unfortunately…..there's gays who would rule the world…..(freddy mercury)…(ellen de generes)…..and there is gays who should have never been born….(adam lambert) and 500 others….i am in no way homophobic…i am just being reallistic….this is NOT like journey finding their new singer (arnel pineda)….on the internet….this is really a heap of bull excrement. just because a blogger who hates beatiful ladies and dreams of one day being relevant in some man's life like the idea of seeing one of his "alike" people in a world famous band doesnt mean that he will be. FREDDY MERCURY will live forever while adam lambert will be the end of any gay joke worldwide. being a guy bent over a table and having another gay pushing the choochoo train on the first guy doenst give anyone the right to destroy peoples carreers or call girls demisive names or nicknames. so….glambert will never be anything else that a gays gay. im sure even WILLIAM HUNG is more relevant than adam is. PLEASE dont use the word QUEEN and adam in the same sentence again. feel free to say adam lambert and crap everytime you find suitable.
Adam is perfection -yum!!!
OMFG!! The whole world would explode with awesomeness if that happened! I would go to the concert if he joins! Also if he sang with KISS! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
thats fuckkkinnn awsome!!! havent watched tho show or nothing but queen is the shit!!! in the good way! GOOOOO GLAMBERT!!
I'd LOVE IT!! Adam would be a great fit with Queen!!
AND…….for all of you idiots that keep saying he's gay…………who cares? First off he has NEVER confirmed or denied anything so get a grip.
Why does this matter so much? He is a human being and has one hell of a voice. I'd buy any CD or go see him in any band he is in GAY OR NOT!!!
If the band Queen thinks he's good enough to be in their legendary band, then who are we to say their wrong? THEIR FRIGGIN QUEEN FOR QUEEN'S SAKE! haha
An insult to Freddie Mercury. Sorry Adam, that guy was Godly.
Talent wise he can do it… but Freddy had a fantastically raw sexuality that was new for the times .. Adam just has a "i'm your wierd kid brother" vibe to me
Hmmm…. I don't think so. I see nothing wrong with added a new frontman to any band that no longer has one. It's not all about the singer, but the band as a whole.
That being said, if Lambert get's offered this great opprotunity, why shouldn't he take it? But then again, he should start his own career and show the world what he has to offer as an individual. Not by playing some older songs someone else wrote and who already did an amazing job of singing.
Um NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO not in a million years no one can replace freddie or even come close he is a legend. adam is good for Msical theatre his style would never sell now. he is good for maybe beauty and beast or some disney stuff his voice and his high pitch scream can get on your last nerve.
no hes not! i dont even know who this guy is.. i just know he was on american idol..
It would be awesome, but I just want Adam to be Adam and not with a band. I think he's stand out more that way and be a lot better!
I would LOVE THAT!!!
Oh please fuck no. I can't even stand looking at this guy let alone having him in a legendary rock band. Freddie is turning over in his freaking grave.
Queen are one of the best bands ever no one can replace Freddie
OMG HELL YES! and i want them to go on tour with adam!!! I would LOVE IT…my dad is a big queen fan..im sure he would go see him too…I love adam!!!!
Re: jkjackson – It is true that no one can replace Freddie Mercury. But for you to say that you would delete all their music is immature and childish. I am from the Queen era and love them immensely, and if Brian May feels Adam is worthy who are you to argue???
UMMM NO NO NO! Adam can not be anywhere close to Freddie Mercury! DO NOT LET HIM RUIN ITTTT!!!!
No one could ever replace Freddy!!!!!!
But Adam would make a lovely substitute.
Yay go Adam!
WOW!
to be completely honest as my display name says i am obsessed with adam but i think it would be a great disservice to himself if he was to become the new queen lead singer because then he would be called"the new freddie mercury" permanently and the music industry is about being an individual. I think although Queen would be successful with him that it wouldnt be real. Take for example, adams fans would follow him wherever he goes, the would only go to see queen because they were in love with him, most AI viewers have no idea who queen is aside from them performing on the show. Queen fans although they would respect Adam because you cant not respect him because he is amazing, they would resent him because they would think he is trying to be another Freddie. I LOVE QUEEN, I LOVE FREDDIE and I absolutely without a doubt adore Adam but I think he should just do the solo thing or get his own band together so that way he is known As Adam Lambert…the one who changed the music industry for a generation. Regardless of what he chooses to do I will follow his career but thats just my opinion.
Yesssss.
It's so much better that he didn't win because, well, see?!
He can sign with other artists, make albums, not sign that contract and move on!
He's so much better off and will always be the best American Idol contestant I've ever seen in my life!
I love adam Lambert sooooo much and I think he has an amazing voice like amazing, but nobody can compare to freddie Mercury. I hope they just maybe work together for like an album and then adam can be a solo artist with a cool glam rock album
it would be good for him as long as
they dont drop him as fast as
INXS dropped JD.
adam has incredible pipes he
will do great no matter what happens.
Also, how about putting up something about the fact that top 10 AI Contender Michale Sarver posted on a thread started by Adam's Brother Neil on somethingawful.com
"where I come from you're either in the closet or you're DEAD!"
Oh and he also put a video blog on his myspace page in which he and Gokey said they loved each other only in the "right and Godly way" You wanna combat homophobia how bout going after the homophobes and leave Adam alone.
I'm gonna put this on every Adam Lambert post until you post it yourself, that guy's a douche and people need to know!
No Way!!! No one could ever ever replace Freddie Mercury.
