Adam Lambert on music, sexuality and working with Lady Gaga

During a recent stop in Toronto, pop star Adam Lambert sat down for an interview with Xtra. The singer talked music, sexuality and what it was like to work with Pink and Lady Gaga. “Being an out mainstream visible artist in the music industry isn’t very common these days, so of course the media is going to sensationalize it and talk about it a lot,” he says. “If there’s any drawback to that, it’s that sometimes that overshadows the fact that I’m a singer and a musician.” If he could cover one Lady Gaga song, what would it be? “Speechless.” Watch the video to find out why.

The “Home” music video is a new arrangement of the well-loved Singaporean classic written by Dick Lee and first sung by Kit Chan.
