From American Idol runner-up to the first openly gay man to have a number one album in the US, Adam Lambert has spent the last 17 years doing things entirely on his own terms. And with his sixth studio album ADAM out now, he's never been more honest.
In this Pride month special, Adam talks candidly about toxic masculinity within the queer community, why visibility has become a double-edged sword and what he thinks Pride really means in 2026.
Adam also tells Josh about the piece of advice Lady Gaga gave him backstage at the Oscars; how he reacted when he was told to tone himself down for a Biblical musical; and why the new album, written in the rawest moments post a five year breakup, is the most unfiltered thing he has ever made. He’s also now changing his approach to relationships too!
Plus, Adam joins the group chat to answer your questions. Alright then, fancy a chat?
