Adam Lambert and Sauli Koskinen Call It Quits
Posted by snicks on April 5, 2013

Relationships aren't easy, and celebrity relationships have their own added problems. But in a sad and surprising turn, Adam Lambert has announced that he and Sauli Koskinen have to decided to end things:

“Sauli and I remain really good friends, and I know it's a cliché thing to say. But it's totally true,” he said. “I just gave him a coffee and bagel earlier today. He's a great person and we've had an amazing couple of years together. Things have just run their course.”

In what must be devastating to the tabloids, there was nothing scandalous about the reasons why ... it was just a question of hectic schedules.

“I've been getting really busy and traveling a lot and and he's been getting really busy because he has a show he's filming for Finnish television,” he said. “So we just decided to part ways.”

They were an adorable couple, and its a shame things couldn't work out, but of course this does mean that Adam is ... single again.

The line forms behind me.

5 Awesome Current Artists Who Need Grammy Awards

Posted by Louis Virtel on February 6, 2013

The Grammys are this Sunday, which is exciting for award show fans and depressing for people who think those awards should go to the right people. Sigh. Here are five current artists still in need of official Grammy love.

5. Scissor Sisters

(source)

Since the Scissor Sisters emerged a decade ago, their style has remained as quirky and danceable as anything Lady Gaga's ever produced, yet the Grammys haven't been as keen to reward the ragtag group with their due props. They've only been nominated once in the Best Dance Recording category, where the group's take on "Comfortably Numb" lost to Britney Spears' sole moment of brilliance, "Toxic." Where's the love for "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'"? Or this year's wickedly saucy "Let's Have a Kiki"?


4. Adam Lambert

(source)

Get this: Zero male American Idol contestants have a Grammy to their name. Nope, not even Kevin Covais. Adam Lambert earned a nomination for "Whataya Want From Me?" last year (and lost to Bruno Mars in the Best Male Pop Vocal Performance category), but if anyone deserves multiple Grammys from the past five seasons of Idol, it's Lambert. Surely his latest album Trespassing is his best work to date, and if you can't even earn a Grammy nomination for notching a #1 album as a self-defined gay artist with a distinct pop sound and an otherworldly voice, maybe it's time for Grammy voters to revise their rubric.


3. Tori Amos

(source)

Tori Amos is not only an accomplished songwriter who has released an unreal amount of material; she's also one of the most confessional and ambitious singer/songwriters of the past 20 years. Who else combines the eerie vulnerability of Laura Nyro with the beguiling angelic feminity of Kate Bush? This is a woman who had the nerve to organize a greatest hits package using the Dewey Decimal System (please see Tales of a Librarian for proof), and if the woman who's given us everything from "Silent All These Years" to "A Sorta Fairytale" doesn't have a Grammy, then what are we doing not protesting the fact that Sheryl Crow has nine?


2. PJ Harvey

 (source)

PJ Harvey has won an unprecedented two Mercury Prizes, rejiggered her stark musical stylings time and again, and successfully reinvented her image so many times over her two-decade career that it's hard to believe she's not often described as Madonna's gritty, art-school cousin. If she's not wailing about a botched abortion in her classic '95 jam "Down By The Water," she's toasting New York on her brilliant Stories From The City, Stories From the Sea album or exploring Victorian stoicism on 2006's chilling White Chalk. How is it possible that this fabulous original has zero Grammy awards? Did I mention who she beat out last year for that Mercury Prize? None other than the Grammys' reigning queen Adele. Yeah. Woah.


1. Bjork

(source)

There are geniuses, and then there is Bjork, the undisputed champ of unpredictable style transformations, technological breakthroughs in music, and a completely enigmatic image. When has this woman been anything less than a staggering, life-giving anomaly in music? From Debut through Post, Homogenic, Vespertine, Medulla, and her latest Grammy-nominated work Biophilia, Bjork has remained consummately committed to exploring her one-of-a-kind vision through some of the most fascinating recordings of our time. Listen to that percussion in "Joga." That tribal creepiness in "Human Behaviour." The lovely sentiment of "I've Seen It All." The cinematic grandeur of "Oceania." To make her Grammy-less situation even worse, her unforgettable music videos have garnered four separate nominations without a win. Ugh! There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic to Grammy behaviour.

Adam Lambert - Is This Love (Bob Marley Cover Take 40 Live Lounge, Sydney)

[Original Article]

Speaking of reggae music, in Sydney, Adam Lambert dropped by the Take 40 Live Lounge and performed a lovely rendition of Bob Marley's "Is This Love." At least to my ear, the tune is pronoun free, so it works well for a gay artist.

Prepare yourselves for the 100 hottest men on Earth!

This year in our sixth annual Hot 100 reader poll, over ninety thousand votes were cast by our readers for over fifteen hundred different men. We tallied the votes and ranked the top 100 vote-getters.

Given our readership of gay men and their friends, it's no surprise that gay or bi guys are well-represented on this year's Hot 100 (roughly 20%). And many of the straight folks who made the cut have either played compelling gay roles before, or have spoken up in support of marriage equality and GLBT rights. Our diverse list includes actors, musicians, politicians, and athletes. And we're thrilled to note that men of color are better represented than they have been in previous years.

Will last year's winner Darren Criss pull off a repeat? What up and coming hot celebrities made the cut for the first time? All will be revealed in the galleries below. Click on the magnifying glass to enter the full-size lightbox to scroll through the results.

Announcing the 2012 AfterElton Hot 100!

41. Jonathan Groff

Glee's Jesse St. James is an out, lovable hunk who we'll always cherish for originating the role of Melchior Gabor in Spring Awakening.

39. Russell Tovey

Forget Team Jacob-- when it comes to supporting seductive werewolves, we're Team George all the way and superfans of Being Human.

Follow him on Twitter @russelltovey

17. Zachary Quinto

He came out this year as a matter of conscience, showing other celebs exactly how it's done. We loved his stint on American Horror Story and adored him in the underrated Margin Call. Look for him in 2013 in the Star Trek sequel.

Follow him on Twitter @ZacharyQuinto

16. Anderson Cooper

He swore up a storm on Kathy Griffin's couch, giggled like the cutest little silver fox of all time on AC360, and even fronted his own talk show this year. Oh Anderson, we certainly see a lot of you-- and yet, wish we knew you better.

Follow him on Twitter @andersoncooper

15. Gale Harold

The onetime Queer as Folk super-stud has kept busy in recent years with Desperate Housewives, Hellcats, and most recently The Secret Circle. But he'll always be Brian Kinney to us!

10. Adam Lambert

His sophomore release Trespassing went #1. The out-and-proud star continues to be our American Idol!

Follow him on Twitter at @adamlambert

8. John Barrowman

The out alum of Torchwood, Desperate Housewives, and Doctor Who is a perennial Hot 100 achiever. He also finished second in our Gay/Bi Men of the Decade poll. Still impressive!

5. Neil Patrick Harris

From the Tonys, to Barney Stinson, to raising babies, NPH is a whip-smart, super-hot homosexual for the ages.

On Twitter at @ActuallyNPH

2. Chris Colfer
Glee's brightest light expands his resume this year with Struck by Lightning and a soon to be released children's book. He's our overachieving, gay boy wonder, and we expect big things from him in the future.

Watch! Adam Lambert On Being A Gay Pop Star And (Former) Reluctant Role Model

Posted by snicks on June 25, 2012

Adam Lambert sat down with Billboard.com to discuss the whirlwind of the last few years, and his initial reluctance to embrace being a gay role model and voice:

"At the beginning I was a little bit like, 'I don't know what to say, I don't know how to be that role model,' even though all of a sudden people are telling me I am. One of the things I find very gratifying now is that I have grown a lot more comfortable with my position and I'm embracing the opportunity to be able to address this stuff through music."

Even though he's now settled in to his position, he's still vowing to make it on his own terms, even if it has its difficulties:

"In so many cases, I find myself saying, I wanna be the really nice down-to-earth guy who happens to be gay in order to set an example that it's not threatening. Then there's another part of me that's like, no I wanna be fierce and ... do whatever I want because I'm a rebel. I have that battle inside of me. I know a lot of people do."

Here's hoping the fierce wins out!

Adam Lambert Claims the Number One Spot on Billboard 200 chart

Wednesday, May 23, 2012 - 11:00am by Matt Kane, Associate Director of Entertainment Media at GLAAD

Pop star Adam Lambert made history this week when he became the first openly gay man to claim the number one spot on the US Billboard 200 chart with his new album TRESPASSING.

Artists like Elton John and Ricky Martin would certainly rank as some of the best selling artists of all-time, but neither managed to crack the number one position after publicly coming out as gay.  Lambert himself came out following his appearance on the 8th season of American Idol, where he took runner-up. Despite that second place finish at the time, Lambert quickly amassed a hugely loyal fanbase, which helped propel the sales of his latest release.

TRESPASSING, which was released on RCA Records/19 Recordings on May 15, was executive produced by Lambert and has been met with incredible critical reviews. Rolling Stone declares that Trespassing is “the great pop album everybody was hoping Adam Lambert would make” while New York Daily News exclaims, “it’s the sound of liberation achieved.” People Magazine raves that “Lambert stakes laim for the divos on his glamtastic second set” and USA Today proclaims that it is “the album that fans have been wanting from him.”

In addition to making great music, Adam continues to be a strong voice for equality. He was nominated for Outstanding Music Artist at the 21st Annual GLAAD Media Awards.

Huge congrats to Adam Lambert on his accomplishment!  Check out the video for his latest single below
