14 DAY TRIAL // He has proven he can be an American Idol without actually winning the show with the same name. He has also proven he can sing and that he has what it takes to make a rock star. Now, Adam Lambert, whose debut album, “For Your Entertainment,” drops on November 23, is saying he’d also like to have the chance to prove himself as an actor, as ShowbizSpy can confirm.
Speaking recently with the media on things he’d like to try out next, after his album is out and promotion for it over, Adam, also known as Glambert for his flamboyant style and eccentric onstage presence, revealed that he’d love to do movies. Given the immense popularity he’s enjoying right now – and not only with fans, since even the most skeptic of critics have been won over by his talent and incredible personality –, chances of that happening are actually pretty good, industry insiders believe.
“I hope acting’s in my future, yeah. It is something that I’ve done a lot over the past eight or 10 years. If the opportunity came up and it was the right thing, I would love to be a part of a film. Right now, I am going to try to work on the album first. One thing at a time, right!” Lambert revealed in a recent interview. However, as he also puts it, right now, his undivided attention goes to making music and getting his first studio material out there, to all the fans who’ve been patiently waiting for it for many months now.
In the same interview, Lambert also opened up about his parents and how they were extremely supportive of him while growing up, constantly telling him that being different was not something to be ashamed of. On the contrary actually, as Adam recalls a time when his father would always tell him that all those who were mocking him for being different (Adam has made no secret of his love interests and preferences) would one day want to be his friends.
“I do have great parents. My father is teacher-oriented. He was very much guiding me through. I always felt weird and kind of out of place. I remember my father from my early age going, ‘It’s okay. When you’re older, everybody is going to want to be your friend, trust me. The weird ones are the ones that everybody wants to be like when they’re older.’ I really enjoyed hearing that as a kid. He gave me a little tip. He was like, ‘Hold on, just hold on. It will all work out. It will all fall into place. People will understand you later.’” Adam shared.
