Adam Lambert

Guess we know on which side Adam Lambert stands when it comes to our THG debate on Teen Mom...

With the MTV show making a number of headlines these days - from airing a controversial abortion special to Amber Portwood going to jail... and pretty much sucking as a human being - the singer has chimed in on the series with the following Tweet:

This Teen Mom show on MTV is so depressing. I know it's "real life" but shouldn't there be programming that inspires kids to shoot higher? #glorifyingwhitetrash

Adam Lambert won't be watching Teen Mom. Can you blame him?

Recently going on record with how difficult it can be to balance life as an openly gay man with life as a a recording artist, Adam Lambert stopped and combined both worlds this week.

Prior to performing "A Change Is Gonna Come" in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, the singer told the crowd:

"The thing about the song is, it's amazing that it was originally intended for civil rights, and ladies and gentlemen, if you haven't noticed, the gay and lesbian community is in a civil-rights movement right now."

Adam then detailed his own experiences with discrimination before moving into a heartfelt rendition of the single. Watch it all unfold now:

Adam Lambert has hit the home stretch in his Glam Nation tour.

The THG favorite and former American Idol finalist played a show last night at the Henry Fonda Music Box in Los Angeles and brought a special guest to the stage for a duet on "Aftermath."

Below, you can watch Alisan Porter - who opened the show with her band, The Canyons - sing alongside Lambert on a single she actually co-wrote. Looks like she had a bright career ahead of herself, doesn't she?

Since he first graced the American Idol stage, Adam Lambert has handled the topic of his homosexuality with grace and maturity.

That's continued to this day, including a recent visit to France, where a reporter asked Adam if he gets bothered by how often his sexual preference comes up in interviews.

"It doesn't bother me," he said. "When I'm abroad, people mostly ask me why they talk about it so much in the U.S.! And it's normal, because there are very few openly gay artists. I just don't want it to overshadow my music, and this can be the case because of the media, who have a tendency to sensationalize the issue.”

Lambert was also asked about the single "Aftermath," which seems to focus on the issue of one coming out.

Forget caroling for the holidays. Major music acts spent the last few days Jingle Balling.

Adam Lambert was awoken by something a lot more exciting than his regular cup of coffee last week: a phone call that informed him of a Grammy nomination for the single "Whataya Want From Me."

"I was so excited," the singer tells The Hollywood Reporter of his reaction after learning he was up for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance. "After our call, I saw that a bunch of friends and family had texted and written emails."

Lambert is up against Michael Bublé, Michael Jackson, Bruno Mars and John Mayer in the category.

Adam says the nomination validates both his talent and the credibility of American Idol as a "dream platform for any artist," adding:

We apologize to Adam Lambert and his supporters.

We're huge fans of this singer and hate the idea of comparing him to someone as talentless as Kourtney Kardashian. But we have no choice. When we see celebrity hairstyles this similar, we're obligated to poll readers over who does it better.

Especially when both styles honor the master of the poof, Snooki herself. So we hope Lambert lovers take this with the grain of funny salt with which it's intended and cast their vote now...

Adam Lambert often lights up whatever city in which he performs.

This is typically due to impressive visual effects that have followed the artist around the globe on his Glam Nation Tour. However, in Amsterdam last night, Lambert took the concept to another level, appearing to smoke marijuana on stage.

The pot comes out around the three-minute mark of another Purple Haze rendition, as Jimi Hendrix would certainly wouldn't approve of this drug use. So would the city itself, which has no laws against marijuana.

Watch, see for yourself and decide if you're cool with the sight of Adam puffing away in front of fans:
