Adam Lambert is Beyonce

If you’re going to find an artist to compare Adam Lambert to, don’t compare him with any of the other American Idol alums like David Cook or Chris Daughtry. The singer would more likely be compared to Beyonce. Adam knows that people have mixed views regarding how he’s managing his image but he insists that he’s no different than the diva in how he does his thing. Adam said “People look at me and immediately say, ‘Oh, he’s doing the musical-theater thing’. But if you look at most female pop stars right now, how are they any less theater? Beyoncé is doing ‘Single Ladies’ with two girls in character shoes and leotards, doing [Bob] Fosse choreography from ‘Sweet Charity’ and ‘West Side Story.’ The dress-up supports that; the fantasy element supports it. People want to talk about whether I have rock cred, whether I’m selling out, the theatricality, the gay stuff. … Chill out! And just enjoy yourself.”
