Adam Lambert: Upset With Out Magazine Editor

 

Although Adam Lambert was named Out magazine's Breakout Star of 2009, Adam and Out magazine editor Aaron Hicklin are going at it.

In this month's issue, with Adam featured on the cover, Aaron writes a letter in which he puts Adam, his record label, and management on blast.

Aaron said, “We’re curious whether you know that we made cover offers for you before American Idol was even halfway through its run. Apparently, Out was too gay, even for you."

Aaron said that Adam Lambert's team was concerned about what an Out magazine cover would do to his record sales. Aaron added, “Imagine! A gay musician on the cover of a gay magazine. What might the parents think! It’s only because this cover is a group shot that includes a straight woman that your team would allow you to be photographed at all.”

The journalist who interviewed Adam was also allegedly cautioned against making the interview "too gay" or "you know, gay-gay."

Adam wasn't too happy about this unnecessary expose and posted the following tweets:

  • “Dear Aaron, it’s def not that deep. Chill! Guess ya gotta get attention for the magazine. U too are at the mercy of the marketing machine…
  • Until we have a meaningful conversation, perhaps you should refrain from projecting your publications’ agenda onto my career.”

Aaron slams Adam for not being "gay" enough, yet Lambert is his publication's Breakout of the Year honoree? I think Aaron is hoping Adam will show him how gay he truly is by gettin' down with him. Yes, that's silly and I took it there cause this feud is equally as silly. Adam is as gay as they come and he's proud and he's out of the closet. I dunno what more Aaron should want or ask of him.
