Ferras Alqaisi

After initial reports surfaced that Adam Lambert was hooking up with Ferras Alqaisi, all has remained quiet on that dating front.

Until now!

The American Idol finalist was spotted at Hotel Cafe in West Hollywood this weekend, attending a Ferras concert. The pair were then seen exiting the building and walking closely together:

Soon after American Idol ended, Lambert went public with his sexuality and then with his relationship with Drake LaBry.

But those two broke up in late October and Adam wasted little time in getting close to Alqaisi. Are they an official item? It's unclear at this time.

As long as he's happy, though, fans - including the THG staff - are happy. Click on the images below for a few closer looks at Lambert and his rumored new mate:

Earlier this week, Adam Lambert said he was ready to date.

We assumed the American Idol singer was referring a random person in the future, but who were we kidding? No way Adam Lambert can remain single for long!

Star magazine reports the crooner spent Halloween night at a costume party with a new man: singer/songwriter Ferras Alqaisi.

"Ferras had been helping Adam work on his new album, For Your Entertainment," a friend told the tabloid. "They have a lot in common, so I'm not surprised Adam started falling for him."

Others, however, are shocked that Lambert has moved on so quickly from Drake LaBry.

"Adam really dropped a bomb on Drake; I don't think he suspected a thing," said a source.

Alqaisi is signed to Capitol Records. He enjoyed a brief dalliance in the spotlight a couple years ago, when his single "Hollywood's Not America" was used as the "exit song" on the seventh season of American Idol.

However, it was soon replaced by a Ruben Studdard song. Fortunately, Ferras has found his revenge: forget a tune on American Idol; he's got himself on an American Idol now!
