(Terra’s note: Best interview ever. Reading this interview I just wanna give him a hug or something — and not in a creepy way pls people — Quite an inspiring interview, really! Fred Bronson, you’re my favourite music journalist from now on. The RS interview has been pwned!)
“American Idol” runner-up Adam Lambert sat down with writer Fred Bronson for a wide-ranging interview. In Part One, Lambert talks about his early musical influences.
We know from watching “American Idol” that you were raised in San Diego, but where were your parents living when you were born?
Teeehee, I love Craig Ferguson, especially during “huge douchebag day”. And when you have Peter Travers, Rolling Stone with references to the Rolling Stone cover and karaoke singing, I simply have to post this :P :
Can I say I’m slightly disappointed with the 20/20 interview that was broadcast? It felt… truncated, and like a repeat of what we already knew from the RS interview, other than the fact that we can actually see his bubbly personality on TV which we don’t get from print? And poor Neil got shafted! The online stuff was honestly so much better! To think I sat through half an hour listening to a report on the Amanda Knox case.
I really like Chris Connelly though. Unlike female interviewers who typically go gaga (like me), he’s mostly calm and collected in the interview and asked some nice questions (which unfortunately didn’t make it to the final TV cut). But I loved the part where he bursting out laughing on the snake issue (just like how Slezak couldn’t contain himself in the Idolatry interview about the Bob McKenzie showroom drag queen comment, or where Matt Mitovich chuckled to himself with the pink elephant comment). The dude has charisma.
On the bright side, some new findings gleamed from the broadcast interview:
1) He’s singing Fame by David Bowie(!!!)
2) The tour wardrobe looks awesome.
3) The new haircut really works.
4) How the f—k does he lose weight so quickly?? I need tips.
5) He rocks out and blows other regular performers away even at rehearsals.
6) He was totally flirting with the guy in the Skingraft store.
Anyway as usual, the hardworking people at Youtube already have the broadcast interview up:
