Adam Lambert Cops to Past Drug Use, Curiosity About Women
Adam Lambert is off to Great Britain.
The American Idol finalist is pretty much a stranger to that country, so News of the World - one of that nation's leading supermarket tabloids - interviewed Lambert the month before he makes his first overseas appearance there.
Describing him as "Lad Gaga" for his "outspoken attitudes" and "rauncy routines," the unreliable source spoke to the singer in NYC and asked him if he'd ever sleep with a woman.
"I find women beautiful and I have been known to make out with girls at parties, especially when there is alcohol involved," Adam said, days after his publicize kiss with Ke$ha. "I am a pretty open-minded person and I would have sex with a woman... anything is possible because I am really comfortable with sexuality generally."
This isn't the first time Lambert has spoken about his curiosity over women. We could think of a few (million) fans that wouldn't mind showing Adam what he's been missing.
Delving into his adolescence, the tabloid also asked Lambert about influences such as Boy George and David Bowie. During this line of questioning, the singer's past drug use came out. He said:
"I went wild and I was experimenting with certain substances... At 26, I started running with hippies, going to underground events, I was really drawn to that crowd, everyone embraced each others differences.
There are certain drugs out there that are really fun and recreational and can mean a good time. I'm not an advocate for drugs, but it is all rock and roll and we are all adults."
More honesty from the star. Some might criticize him for this admission, others will simply admire him more.
Where do you stand?

I really hope Adam doesnt do drugs anymore. it would ruin his perfect voice. Even if he is a adult he still doesnt have to do them, but its his thought that counts for it. not ours. i will still love him if he goes to drugs bt it would be a diffrent kind of love.

he isn't really saying that it is cool to do drugs u see he did it a 26 and he was old enough so technally kids would most likley think that if you are going to be at the age limit. and at least he was over the age limit to do drugs and he doesn't do drugs anymore so thats a good thing. i still look up to him all of his fans do look up to him. you know when you are in your 20's and you are not famous you might just go a head and do this stuff. it's like a thing when your 20 or something. but he doesn't do drugs anymore so kids will be like "well adam got off of drugs so i don't really have to do drugs, since he doesn't do drugs anymore." so he is good right now no worries here.

That is what he stands for. Look at all his different looks. View people with out labels. Try it. The attitude is liberating.
47 yr mom here who has been there done that and turned out pretty darn good. Use each life experience to broaden and expand tolerance which opens the door for love. Adam is just a test button for many who need to make this leap!

Some of you have sticks shoved so far up your arses it must be hard to sit down. One group I strongly and I mean strongly detest are bible thumping, hypocritical, uptight, self-righteous conservatives. This world would be a better place if we put you all on an island somewhere out in the pacific. Your smarmy little whinning whenever someone talks about sex or drugs is annoying. Oh no, horrors. What about the children? Will they ever survive? Send them to war but don't let they be exposed to drugs. All through my 20's I did every drug known to mankind. I did LCD, PCP, cocaine, crystal meth, purple microdot, speed, ludes, mescaline you name it I did it. Where am I now? I am a professional with an MBA and two undergrad degrees. I have a beautiful home, a couple of nice cars, a summer home on a lake a beautiful wife and a three great kids. I stopped doing drugs when I turned 30. Why? Because I felt it was time. Drugs to me where fun not addictive they were recreational just like alcohol. I

Judy - Why should he "go with girls" when it is BOYS to whom he is attracted ? He is gay and there is nothing wrong with being gay. That is the way he is by nature (i.e., by birth), it is not a lifestyle he has somehow chosen. He is a superb role model for the roughly 10-15% of children out there who were also born gay, by showing them that they can and should be proud of who they are. He is also a good role model for all children because he has so many fine qualities, such as kindness, generosity, humility, courtesy, and is a good and loving person.
As for drugs, read more closely: he says he is "not an advocate for drugs". He does not take drugs now as he is already high on life and is too busy working hard to be a successful entertainer. Almost everyone experiments with drugs at some level when they are young and most do not continue. Only a few unfortunate ones get hooked, and it is usually those with low self-esteem. Adam's message is to love and honor the person that yo

First I have to say, I hope Zep got paid LARGE royalties for that! It's not a bad rendition, but scary for a Led Zep purist. Also, a mother commented that she never smoked, whatever, & has a 4 yr old daughter. She says you cannot put your child in a bubble. Agreed. However, I would be damned before I even let someone in my home or be in the home of anyone who was using any kind of drugs. Period. Not cool.
Yes, I have a 2 yr old.

I think that Adam is a very handsome man, and has a wonderful voice, but I do wish that he would go with girls and I don't think he is a good role model for our children of today.
It sounds like he thinks there is nothing wrong with expieriencing with drugs, and that is how these younger children get hooked on drugs.
Drugs, alcohol and gangs, are what is wrong with this country today. I think he was honest, but many younger kids look up to him and now they will think it is somehow cool to use drugs!!!

@Sabrina - Perfectly stated. Thank you for such clarity!
