Adam Lambert Used To Be Fat!

Is that why he likes to wear black so much?

Adam Lambert confessed during a radio interview that he used to be a former chubster saying:

"When I was in high school I was 250 pounds and that creates some stuff…some body image stuff, some confidence issues, and I got a lot of my confidences from validation I got as a performer."

We're glad to see you got yourself in shape Glambert!

Because if you didn't, we probably would have seen you on the Biggest Loser instead of American Idol.

Watch the clip (above) to see what else Adam has to say about his past.

      Who cares. Gaybert's album is a FLOP, just like Lady Gargoyle's.



    2. 2

      Well he isn't thin now



    3. 3

      He wears too much makeup to cover his acne!



    4. 4

      of course he was fat, why do you think he ended up as a F.A.G. he wasn't able to attract girls :) ))



    5. 5

      He still is, kinda ….

      Re: DixieNormas – LOL lady "gargoyle,gaybert" cute, i like that..



    7. 7

      No surprise there. I always thought he looked like he could easily gain weight.



    8. 8

      Maybe he should go on the biggest loser anyway.
      He seems to want to embrace "train-wreck" fame instead of letting his talent do the talking.



    9. 9

      Adam is just as beautiful inside, as he is outside. And the outside is mighty fine. Add the voice to the package, and WOW.



    10. 10

      he still is a little chubby, but i like him that way



    11. 11

      He's still ugly. He looks like if Liberace and Elvis had kids.



    12. 12

      If we don't care that he's gay we shouldn't care if he gains weight.. We have to practice equality



    13. 13

      If anyone knows fat and gay it's you butt pirate.



    14. 14

      Is that when he contracted that terrible case of herpes on his lips? ewwwll!!



    15. 15

      Now that you mentioned it he does look like he was bigger. I loved him on American idol. What happened to him? I guess he had to be tame on the show.



    16. 16

      I like when he said "I started feeling beautiful from the inside out". Going to have to remember that one

      and don't forget the severe acne, fire red hair and freckles. at least he is staying true to himself…uh, or maybe not.



    18. 18

      Looks like he fucked his career up. He can only get interviews on little stations with small audiences. The big boys will no longer have him because theyre afraid he will do something stupid.

      good job idiot lambert



    19. 19

      he has fat face. even though the body is ok the face looks chubby.
      i thought it was the makeup that gave his face that smooth kind of look but apparently it's his fat past that did it



    20. 20

      Why "Biggest Loser" if he were fat??? sorry to say but that's really stupid.



    21. 21

      That must have been the same time the crater face came about



    22. 22

      Go Adam .. you've come a long way

      You should be nicer, you know how that feels. You were and are areally ugly fat gay.



    24. 24

      No sh1t sherlock!
      He still has a fat face. Just like yourself.



    25. 25

      Adam Lambert is thin? Okay, he's not 250 lbs like he says he was in high school, but I never thought he was thin. He has a fat face and chubby.



    26. 26

      Am I the only one who thinks a) HE'S STILL PUDGY; and b) he wears way too much foundation in a shade that is too tan for his skin tone. I always think he seems chubby/dirty when I see him because of this.



    27. 27

      Hmmm … gay and fat. That has sooo been done. Hasn't it Perez?



    28. 28

      Someone must have some pictures!!!!!



    29. 29

      Finally ans interesting interview question! You can tell that he struck truth on this one. Folks who are so focused on the outside are always compensating.



    30. 30

      You can tell that he used to be bigger. He has 2 chins, and his cheeks indicate that he was overweight. Therefore he'll always be a stone's throw from being big again.

      Just my observation.



    31. 31

      …too much emphasis on weight. It makes me wanna barf.



    32. 32

      perez you are the biggest loser. and not because you lost weight, just because your a fucking loser. period.



    33. 33

      Love him!



    34. 34

      Aww



    35. 35

      Most of his fat is now stored in his head since he is a fathead. I hope none of the pustules burst on live TV.



    36. 36

      I can't believe everyone is down on him for dying his hair or having acne once, when precious Megan Fox and countless other celebrities dye their hair, had acne and get an endless array of plastic surgery to completely alter their face. Fox looked sick before. Adam is doing fine.



    37. 37

      I think it's actually a good thing for him to come out and talk about that. Maybe it will motivate some of America's obese teens to get in shape. The mentality of "I can lose some weight and do something with my life" is a good one to promote.



    38. 38

      Enough with the mean spirited comments. So what if he used to be fat? There is not one person on the face of this earth who doesn't have some image issue, valid or not. At least he is doing interviews, getting his music out there while the rest of us sit here and either support him or bash him. Like him or not, fat or not, he is living his life and we should live and let live.



    39. 39

      LOL!!

      "USED" to be???



    40. 40

      Re: Cashmere Jay – …LOLOLOLOL!LOLOLOLOL!



    41. 41

      I'm confused…? Used to be fat? I've said it since day one I HATE ADAM LAMBERT. Enough with the screeching, the makeup, the out of shape body, the attempt to be a male Lady Gaga. He sucks top to bottom and he's still fat. I'm gay and I hate that he's some kind of posterchild. He needs to get run over by a very large truck, which is what it would take to run over his very large ass.



    42. 42

      Re: karencarpenter – Good to see you back - best J



    43. 43

      Just like you Tubby!



    44. 44

      I love him. He is so genuine and open. And his CD was not a flop, nor was Gaga's.

      Adam Lambert is drop dead gorgeous. His voice is beyond amazing and anyone who has listened to his interviews knows he is for sure beautiful from the inside out! All of you haters are obviously suffering from a bad case of jealousy and bigotry. Adams CD is already a success so get over it ASS HOLES.



    46. 46

      No shit he used to be fat…he is not exactly svelte now. That's why I don't think he pulls off the whole goth glam look. That look is for people who are tall and slinky-skinny.



    47. 47

      he's still a lardass woman who wears too much makeup. He looks like Liza Minelli.



    48. 48

      How sensitive coming from perez hilton the famously fat gossip blogger.
      If anyone would be on the biggest loser it would be him.
      Adam is so sweet and gorgeous! you can tell that he is a nice person and truly talented :)



    49. 49

      You just got news of this now?? Really Perez, you need to stay with it more.



    50. 50

      I think he learned a big lesson with the AMA fiasco. On Ellen today, he as much admitted it. Hopefully he just injured his career, and will be able to rebound. In terms of his appearance, why so many stupid comments? Good for him that he has become a swan.

      Used to be???

      Adam Lambert sure is gorgeous and fit now!



    53. 53

      He's gorgeous, and remember… it takes a big hammer to drive a big nail.



    54. 54

      he still is–fat elvis



    55. 55

      well if he took off his makeup he'd lose another ten pounds



    56. 56

      Larry Flick, I hope you're reading this….That interview was amazing!



    57. 57

      jackass.

      Stuff like that often drives the best of artists. Enjoy, Adam.

      It is safe to say he is neither too thin or too fat now, just normal sized.
      I hope you did not mean to suggest a plus sized figure could not win American Idol,
      Ruben Studdard proved that wrong but admittedly then disappeared into American Idol oblivion.



    60. 60

      Well, Adam is totally gorgeous now! Seriously HOT!!!



    61. 61

      omgoshh ppl need to stop being such catty bitches and calling him fat hes totally in no way fat, i mean he has a tad of a chubby face but thats it and its totally fine everyone doesn't need to be boney kay bitchess lol ill admit hes not thin but hes not fat..



    62. 62

      wow the interviewer laughs way too hard when adam makes that joke about needing more sleep



    63. 63

      p.s. didn't you show a clip of him at his high school graduation and he was skinny in it??



    64. 64

      Perez, do you have extracts of your participation in a loosing weight tv program? ;-)



    65. 65

      This isn't news. We already knew he was fat from American Idol. Catch up.



    66. 66

      Wow, so what if he was fat, almost everyone's been fat at one point in their life, stop being so judgmental.
      You shouldn't judge someone based on their shape.



    67. 67

      Its pretty obvious from his current bold figure that he was a big fatty!!



    68. 68

      He would be the fat boy with the most beautiful voice in the world



    69. 69

      To Perez: look who's talkinga bout fatt



    70. 70

      USED TO BE????? HE'S STILL FAT, JUST LOOK AT HIS FUCKING GLOVE FACE HAHAHAHAHA. DID SOMEONE TELL HIM THAT HE WAS SKINNY??????

      If you saw him in person, you'd be surprised at how thin and tall he is.
