Adam Lambert shows off dad bod and new twink boyfriend

It looks like Adam Lambert has a new special someone in his life!

The 38-year-old Queen frontman and former American Idol contestant was spotted packing on the PDA with new boyfriend Oliver Gliese on Tuesday (November 17) during a trip to Tulum, Mexico.

The couple was seen sharing some cute kisses and having a playful afternoon at the beach. Adam went shirtless in a zebra-print swimsuit while Oliver wore a blue speedo.

After the photos start spreading online, Adam took to Instagram Stories to seemingly comment on the pics. "I love my Dad Bod," he captioned a video of himself in which he used a filter to distort his face.

Oliver is the Innovation Forum Assistant for Global Fashion Agenda, where he supports the global partnerships team with the operation of the Innovation Forum during the Copenhagen Fashion Summit.

Adam was most recently linked to Javi Costa Polo, though it's unclear when they split.

You can’t blame his lackluster career on homophobia when Lil Nas holds the record of having the longest running number one song ever in America. Adam’s music simply isn’t any good. I’ve actually bought his music just to support an openly gay artist even though his music does nothing for me. It’s just very mediocre.

I just think the cultural climate of the US was still very hostile to an openly gay feminine man like Adam Lambert who dressed androgynously and kissed his male guitarists on stage. His music while generic seemed like a product of its time and if it was recorded by a female artist like Pink, Kelly Clarkson and Rihanna would not have flopped as hard. Also, he wasn't getting the best songwriters and producers because the industry was more reluctant to invest in him because he was openly gay and preferred to do pop rock with a glam image rather than hip-hop/R&B.

He tried butching it up for The Original High and then went back to glam for Velvet. I enjoy his music but it isn't memorable.

Kelly Clarkson was the most successful Idol contestant probably because she was the first. But Adam, Carrie, Fantasia, Jordin and Jennifer Hudson all did well for themselves.

Adam took the spot as frontman of Queen at the expense of his solo career. Honestly, probably not a bad choice considering most money is made in touring and he could play stadiums/festivals with them for decades as opposed to risking falling into obscurity with a fizzled solo career. But he'll neve be a significant artist on his own now the way it seemed like he could be right after American Idol/when his first album came out.

Adam is still young enough to get a hit honestly. Ageism isn't much of a thing now because the music industry can't create young stars anymore and the established ones still generate interest due to social media and fandom support. I think he's just complacent and not ambitious enough to try to aim for a higher caliber of music. He needs to find a really good producer and songwriter but like I said he seems happy with what he has. He isn't hungry like some others are.

Also Nile Rodgers was a great collaboration.

R157 I can see him doing an AOR album. Like Michael Bolton his voice is suited to rock music but he wants to keep doing pop music. You would think touring with Queen would make him realize that.

And he definitely has odd taste in men. He should find a queen his own age.

Blaming homophobia on this guys lackluster career is indeed ridiculous. As mentioned, Lil Nas X just released another hit song that will top the charts for months and he even wrote the lines 'I might bottom on the low but I top shit' which I'd consider DL gold T-shirt material.

Sam Smith is extremely popular and Tyler the Creator wrote an entire record on his love for another man too so, bitch please.

by Anonymousreply 164November 24, 2020 10:38 AM

R164 These artists came out way after Adam Lambert who debuted in 2009 and was a feminine glam guy.

Tyler the Creator's audience was skater kids and his early work with Odd Future had gay slurs and misogynistic lyrics and he also was technically closeted for most of his career. You act like he was openly gay from the get-go.

Sam Smith was more masculine looking too when he debuted and I really doubt if he was non-binary at his debut he would never have been as popular.

This site has to be filled with kids. The 2000s was still a very homophobic time. It was the Bush-era, The War on Terror, conversion camps and Evangelicalism was still a thing. Yeah we had Will & Grace and Queer Eye but that was as far as it would go.

Even if Adam had amazing music, there was just no way an openly gay, feminine and flamboyant guy like him would be guaranteed any major success in the US market at the time.

[quote] You act like he was openly gay from the get-go.

Where did I say that? Igor came out in 2019, same year as Adam's last album, what's stoping him now? Sam Smith is prancing around a room like a 12 year old school girl in love on a video with over 35 million views in less than 2 months. No one ever thought Sam Smith was straight, don't be delusional.

The point is, audiences today embrace openly gay creators and content, Adam just isn't grabbing their attention.

R168 First impressions tend to last I guess. But I don't really see how Sam Smith is better in anyway since I can't remember any of his songs either, I think Smith just had the benefit of making boring coffeehouse music for his debut and it helped his longevity in adult contemporary field. Adam's Original High album is not any worse honestly.

Adam has terrible managers and he still hasn't found his voice, no pun intended. He's technically superior than Sam Smith, but Smith has a personality and a style that is his own. Smith also was lucky to debut with two hits written by a famous pop duo, you can't predict the market, it's that simple.

Lil Nas X can't even sing and he's mostly popular out of his persona. He managed to write a lackluster song that became the most successful single in music history, that is baffling, but it is what it is.

Once Adam finds himself artistically, he can be just as successful. Whoever said upthread his singing doesn't match him was right on the money. Maybe he should look for Billie Eilish's manager and fire whoever represents him now.

I want to see Adam succeed because he has actual talent in both singing and theatre, is a proud gay man and is more charming and likable than these other non-singing "queer" pop stars who seem manufactured to appeal to the TikTok/Tumblr "woke" crowd rather than actual gay people.

Adam also would have done better in the 1980s. Many big-voiced singers doing fun pop music like Nik Kershaw, David Bowie, Donna Summer, Whitney Houston, Rick Astley, Natalie Cole and Taylor Dayne. I can definitely hear Adam doing New Wave/New Romantic type of music.

They weren't manufactured, they just happen to be born in the age of social media, they're actually original in their own right. Lil Nas X was very bold to come out as gay (not queer) at age 20 at the top of his game in a genre that is notoriously homophobic, you can't ignore that. Say all you want about his non voice and whatnot but he's a rapper and decent at that and he didn't wait the end of his career to do it.

Tyler the Creator hasn't come out officially. I think he did, then said it was a joke, etc, but its pretty obvious by his last two albums, all great btw, that he is gay. I don't know why he doesn't do it already.

Another kid that hasn't come out even though he's obviously gay is Conan Gray. One of his hit videos is about a typical closet case scenario, I wish you were sober. In the video he flirts with a guy and a girl but the lyrics only matches a guy. I hope he comes out soon enough. He is another byproduct of the Internet, you can watch videos of him on his YT channel dating back when he was 14.

We are entering a new era now.

As for other gay rappers, Anye Elite and Big Freedia are better to me than Lil Nas X and also further back Da Brat and Queen Latifah .

It's good they are openly gay for the younger audience for representation though.

Adam's vocal ability is NOT matched by his song writing skills. When he started working with Queen, I thought that he might go with more of a rock sound, but he continues to release the same mediocre electro pop. At this point, he's rich and doesn't need solo success, so the chance that he will finally settle into a successful niche on his own seems very unlikely.

by Anonymousreply 184November 24, 2020 12:01 PM

The "new era" is laughable because we are still a minority and heterosexuals can easily just change their mind and hate us again. That's the unfortunate part of being a minority, our lives are dependent on the majority's ability to tolerate us. If you seen the support of Trump and how he could have almost won the election then it informs us there is still a lot of bigotry in this country. The societal attitudes on homosexuality have changed depending on the climate. Look at Ancient Greece and Rome and then Medieval Europe. Look at Edo era Japan then modern Japan. Societies have backtracked on tolerance of LGBT many times.

I agree Adam's music is pretty forgettable and that probably plays a role in his flopping. But still let's not pretend homophobia is dead just because of Lil Nas X's novelty factor and one-hit wonder.

Open up some history books and you will see how history has repeated itself. Minorities are always at the mercy of the majority. You know that it's still legal in many states to discriminate against LGBT in employment, housing and business? Did you know there are many states trying to make gay marriage difficult to obtain? Did you know gay conversation therapy is still legal in many states? Small town America is still very conservative and very Christian. You are being offensive

R192 You should respect your gay elders too and making a mockery of the gay men who died from HIV is not cool. I need help for worrying about history repeating itself? Look at what's happening in Chechnya, India and etc. The US is becoming more fascist and a police state. Scholars have been noticing this since the 1980s during the Reagan Administration. Homophobia should never be trivialized and a gay person regardless of age being concerned about homophobia rising again is not being a loon. Just because the media is postmodern and ahistorical and tricked us into thinking homophobia is over because a few out gay men and lesbians have become celebrities. Gay hate crimes and gay slurs are still a common occurrence and as I have said still no protection against discrimination against LGBT in the workforce, housing and business.

Should young gay men not give a shit about homophobia and bigotry because it's less prevalent and less violent than the past?

Just because the media doesn't talk about it doesn't mean it's not an issue.
