Gene Simmons, co-founder of KISS has a few thoughts and advice for American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert.  Hell, you could say Gene Simmons has few thoughts, period.

Simmons said Lambert is great and has a lot of talent if he wants to be the lead singer of the rock band QUEEN, or be on Broadway, but is not a true rock singer in the same vain as The Rolling Stones Mick Jagger.  But then again, who is anyway?  Just like there will never be another like Freddy Mercury, there will never be another Adam Lambert.

Gene’s advice to Adam is even more out there.  Simmons says Lambert should shut up about his sexual preferences unless they include farm animals,  and that we Americans and the rest of the world don’t really care what he does indoors.  This coming from a man who has been known to brag about having had sex with 46oo women.  Also,  could someone please remind Mr. Simmons that his A&E reality show is all about HIS indoor life??  We Americans never wanted to anything about this, but they still went ahead and did it anyway, right?  Right.

But aside from that, yes, we really don’t care about Adam’s sexual preferences and what he does in the privacy of his own bedroom.  We just care that he is a monsterous talent and has a bright career ahead of him.  Remind you of someone, Mr. Simmons??

And the ever modest Simmons had this to say about KISS performing with Adam on American Idol.  “You mean, how was it for HIM to perform with US?”  he said in a recent interview.  “Well, you just have to realize who the Governor  is and who the little puppy is.”   I don’t even want to know what the hell he meant by that.  Sounds like Mr. Simmons is a little irked that Rolling Stone Magazine said Adam Lambert upstaged KISS during the American Idol finale.  Hell, even Kriss Allen could have upstaged KISS.

WTF does that mean?? Sounds like he has spent too many years in makeup and it has seeped into his brain, because as we Americans all know, KISS is so relevant to rock music today, that they are getting ready to release their first studio album in 11 years, and Mr. Simmons is wrapping up a fourth season of his crappy A&E show with his family.

Until Next Time…

“I’m proud of my sexuality. I embrace it. I’s just another part of me,” is what American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert reveals in an in-depth interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, due to hit the stands on Wednesday, June 10.

In this blogger’s opinion, following the “is he or isn’t he?”  controversy as I have, I have to say that his timing was absolutely right.  No sense of coming out publicly during the run of American Idol, for fear that the topic of his sexuality would overshadow any of his performances.  The fact that so many pictures and articles of him: some in drag and others sucking face with another man didn’t already fuel those fires on the internet never took away anything from the fact that this young man truly has a God given gift.  His voice.

As he tells the magaine, “I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I am gay.”

Trust me, hun, no one was.

After the American Idol finale, he was so tempted to talk to reporters about it, but decided he didn’t want all the Clay Aiken type of publicity B.S.  and purposely decided on Rolling Stone Magazine, so that he could do it on his own terms.   He goes on to tell how his parents found out after finding his gay porn on the family computer,  and about his “crush” on Kris Allen and how nervous he was when he was paired up to room with the American Idol winner.  “I was like, ‘Oh [crap], they roomed me with the cute guy.’ Distracting?  He’s the one guy that I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type — except that he has a wife.”

DragQueenDiaries.com wants to  thank you,  Adam Lambert for a most exciting exciting season of American Idol and we know you will go far above anyone’s expectations and we look forward to your first cd release!!

Until next time,

Adam Lambert performs with Kiss on American Idol finale.

Well, another season of  American Idol has come and gone.  Your winner, after an alleged record setting almost 100,000,000 votes,  is:  THE GUY WHO ISN’T ADAM LAMBERT!!!  Oh,  yeah,  Kris Allen is his name.  Judge Simon Cowell had said that if Adam Lambert did not make it to the “Finals”, then it would have been one of the biggest upsets in the show’s history.  Well, Adam, of course made it to the finals along with season-long  “dark horse”,  um,  what was his name again?  Oh, yeah, Kris Allen.  Well,  after sitting through almost 2 hours of  musical guests and performances by the  “Final 10″, who will be coming to a town near you, we got the results.  Adam Lambert did not win.  Simon Cowell himself,  did not even stand with Randy, Paula or Kara for the ovation when Kris Allen’s name was announced as the winner Wednesday night.  I could see the look of disappointment on Simon’s face as he sat there.  This show is not about who has the best talent anymore.  I cannot wait to hear what Simon has to say.  I would not blame him if he just walked off the show, period.  Let’s see the other three judges handle it without him.  We know Kara will be back next season.

I know there are certain people and websites out there that are loving every minute of  Adam Lambert’s  loss, and you know who you are!   If  the fact that Adam Lambert is “Allegedly” homosexual, or the pictures that surfaced of him on the internet had any effect on the outcome,  we’ll probably never know,  but  it definately was NOT because of his singing that he came in second.  There were two highlights in Wednesday night’s show for me.  Adam Lambert singing with rock icons  KISS and Adam Lambert singing with the legendary  group “QUEEN”.   But, for the most part,  the usual time wasting drivel the show is known for.  As host Ryan Seacrest said at the end of Tuesday night’s performance finale,  “Wednesday’s show will go long, so those of you who record it, make sure you set your DVRs accordingly”.   And, of course, it went long.  Again.

Kris Allen may be 2009’s American Idol,  and I wish him every success,  but Adam, if you ever see this blog, coming in second ain’t so bad.   Can you say Clay Aiken???

Happy viewing!

And the winner is! NOT ADAM LAMBERT!!
