Glambert Responds To Critics!
After receiving some harsh criticism after he unveiled his gender-bending album cover, Adam Lambert took to his Twitter to let everyone know what he thinks - no apologies!
He Tweets:
"Thank you to those who appreciate and understand that the album cover is deliberately campy. It's an omage to the past. It IS ridiculous."
"For those that don't get it: oh well… Glad to have gotten your attention."
We love it! Let's just hope the music follows suit!

Re: kellibelli – I couldn't put my finger on it, but you're so right LOL. It's like Lisa Frank trapper-keeper design reject.
Re: blacklily.of.the.valley –
I completely agree!
Further proof that you apparently don't need to be smart or be able to spell in order to be rich and famous.
Omage to the past?? Recycling the past is more like it. Oh and Adam if you can't count my attention in dollars it's not worth as much as you would like to think.
So Gay.
That cover id ridiculous No one can take this guy seriously ther are plenty of singers with better voices on Broadway and that is how He sounds to me more like a person who would perform in musicals but he isn't going to sell himself like that to the general public maybe in NY on Theatre stage he should do that .
Re: xmichyx – Lead singer of Tokyo Hotel?
AHAHAHAH, you have gotta be fucking kidding me.
he is shameless, gorgeous, independent, and i'm buying his album as soon as it comes out.
uhh Adam, that cover is not campy its unartistic and ugly.
Is it just me or does he look like PINK!!! I thought that was pink before I read the head line!
Sorry Adams… Sylvester done tht in the 70's already… Those drag queen times are gone… That cover is unnecesary now, it might hurt your album sells !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ho mage is pura waste. stick to the real. David Bowie's Hunky Dory and Ziggy Stardust changed my life. when i heard them both it was like discovering a new element. That song on Ziggy 5 years has the greatest crescendo of all time but i reallly can't remember the entire lyrics at all right now
Re: xqueenx – Well, unfortunately, I think Adam will end up going the Boy George route. Boy George was in the spotlight for a little bit and had a good voice and some hits-but he was so over the top that he did not have the lasting power. That is what I see for Adam. He will be like Boy George now or worse, a Liberace. He needs to pull it in a bit and shoot for the types of people that bought tickets for the first time to the AI tour-mainstream people. Hey I am just someone that cares about the guy.
Re: Trisha1 – hmm lost there. but if its about the Bowie album, i really don't remember the lyrics i'm just tyring to introduce cool sounds. i'll stop that and stay deep and literal and read every story before i comment. i'm not backpedaling. i'm just not getting or giving clear signals sometimes
no we got it, we just thought it was really fucking stupid and a lame lousy ploy that didn't work. Fuck off.
I get it too, but I don't like it. You could have used a much better cover to get the message across… Really, Adam. You can do better than that! But I still think you're amazing!
Re: FrenchieFan – But Bill looks cooler although he wears a lot of makeup… He has an edge. Adam doesn't on this album cover.
Aboslutely terrible. I can't imagine a straight man ever purchasing this CD (no matter how good it may be) because of the cover. Way to alienate a huge demographic Adam.
i like the retro vibe. remember when bands like POISON and CINDERELLA used to wear makeup on their albums?
Wrong! I really hopped he got attention with his music, i truely saw him as an artist, now i no longer do it
Homo-age.
im gladd he responded i think its totally him
PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
i wouldn't expect muchh different from him !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so ppl need to back offfffffffffffffffff
but i do agree with someone who said it looks cheap plus it looks like
someone went crazy with the photoshop they totally screwed up his beautiful face !!!!!!!!!!! come on his face doesn't need fixing cover up bumps possibly and thats it !!!!! goshh.. im hoping it looks better in person and sounds as amazing as ppl are making it to be
oh and who else saw him on oprah today he looked so gorgeous omgoshhhhh
im in love all over again lmao xDD
This cover is great. I thought David Bowie right away.
hes not interesting enough to be campy.
and he spelled "homage" incorrectly…unless thas was you fatty fat perez
Don't bother defending the album cover. It really sucks. Nothing you can say good about it.
I LOVE IT. I'M ALWAYS EXCITED ABOUT WHAT HE WILL DO NEXT.
I haven't been paying attention. What's not to like? I love the image.
It looks like a glamor shot from some chessey ass mall photo studio.
You only like him now b/c he joined forces w/ your Lady Gaga… turncoat!
I'll buy his record on iTunes so it doesn't matter what the cover looks like. But even though I like him, I vote lame.
lol. he just made me like him more and appreciate his cover: "For those that don't get it: oh well… Glad to have gotten your attention." that's the attitude to have!
p.s. he's really good looking when you look at the cover. wonder if they photoshopped anything though?
Re: Peachesbaby – got that right.
Re: Annie Sue – i agree.
Hey Adam, I have an idea-hire me for your creative team and fire the guys you have now. They must just "Yes" you whenever you come up with over the top ideas like that rediculous too fem album cover. Your fans (the ones that screamed for you on the AI tour) want the edgy masculine guy and not the cheeky too fem guy. Like the single and that cover.
I don't like it but people are really uptight around here huh LOL
He said on Seacrest's show it was supposed to make you laugh. When he showed his friends they cracked up and went OH NO YOU DIDNT
FUCKING LIER……HE WAS GOING FOR RETRO GLAMMER ROCK SHEIK AND IT BACK FIRED…..WHAT A DUD
LUKZ LYK FERGIE DER!
