Speaker 1 (00:00):
Kiss f M there.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
It is one or two point seven eminem without me.
It's Ryan Seacrest here. So fourteen years ago, Adam Lambert
was on American Idol and he's gone on to be
tremendously successful, and now he's coming back on Sunday. If
you're around Sunday, you'll see this on ABC. Adam Lambert
will be there with the contestants. Between being Adam Lambert
(00:27):
and being on tour with Queen and being Adam Lambert
and all the things you have to do to be
Adam Lambert. But he's He's generously spending time with us
this weekend and I personally cannot wait to see him.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Brother, How are you?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
I'm good. I personally can't wait to see you.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Have you changed? Tell me what to expect?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Have I changed? I bleached my hair. I mean that's
a change.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Okay, So what colors your hair now? And how tight
is the is the beard?
Speaker 3 (00:53):
The beard? The beard is kicking. It's good. I got
I got the It's like the white blonde. I'm feeling
like summer's coming.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
I'm so excited. I actually mentored the contestants yesterday and
it was such a great day. The talent this year
is crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Yeah, so what's going on?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Like when you were on you had the talent, But
did everybody have the kind of talent at this time
that they have?
Speaker 3 (01:18):
I don't know, It's hard to say. I mean, I think,
you know, enough time has past. People are probably maybe
savvier than they might have been, you know, given everyone's
on social media and whatnot. So I think I think
these contestants are clever. You know, they understand who and
what they are.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, and what did they want to talk to you
about you meet them for the first time?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
What were they most interested in?
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Adam, Well, you know, a lot of them had the
same kind of question about what do I do when
I'm kind of nervous? And I got a lot of
things to think about it once, how do I stay focused?
So a handful of contestants and I worked on some
tips and tricks to kind of stay ground and stay
in the spirit of the song and not get distracted.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Well, you also, when Adam Lambert was on stage, you
also conveyed fun, Like, whether you were nervous or not,
you always looked like you were having the time of
your life.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
How do you do that?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Acting good? I was Definitely. I was definitely really nervous,
especially like the first half of the season. You know,
I was very excited and the adrenaline was high. I
think for some of the uptempo songs it helped because
it kind of gives you the fuel if you can
harness it. But definitely for some of the more, you know, relaxed,
(02:40):
mellow moments, I had just sort of talked myself off the.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Ledge it always I mean, I still can't get over
the fact that you you've done what you've done as
Adam Lambert by the way, his latest album, Highdrama's out now.
And then also you step into the role of being
with Queen, which is I mean, it's musically historic.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Bro.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
You know, thanks, thank you. I mean it's been it's
been wild. I never expected it to take on the
life that it has. You know. I met them on
the finale of Idols, so I can thank Idle for
kind of making that introduction. And then we did a
gig together, like you know, a year after my first album,
my first solo tour, and I thought it was a
(03:24):
one off and it just kind of snowballed into this
incredible ten year journey that we've been on so far
of touring all over the world.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
So here's a really like general question about stepping into
a room with people who have been doing it for
a long time and you're like the new kid, because
I think we've all experienced this. You move to a
new town, you go to a new school, you get
a new job. I'm generally like or I like, go
into a workout class for the first time, Like, I'm
shy and quiet and don't even speak to anybody.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
What was it like for.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
You to be in this group in this room for
the first time? How did you handle it? And what
guidance could you give to people who are going through that.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Well, you know, I was definitely you know, it was
a little intimidating.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
You know.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
I obviously Freddie Mercury, there's no replacing him. You know,
this band is legendary. So I have a lot of respect,
and I guess when you really look up to people,
it makes you even more nervous, you know. I think
I think what helps me is that they requested me,
So I felt like, Okay, they they wanted me here.
I'm not I'm not like crashing a party that helps.
(04:37):
That helps, But yeah, I mean, you know, I think
at the end of the day, I think being really
honest and communicating is the key to everything. And you know,
I said to them, I'm like, oh my god, I'm
kind of nervous.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
You know.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
You just I think whatever situation you're in, I think
if you if you're honest and open with people, most
of the time, people get it, and they they they
they're on your side at that point, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Advice.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Well, I'm so psyched to see you in a few
days here Sunday eight seventh century can watch it on ABC.
Adam Lambert, thanks for calling, buddy, I will see you soon.
