My Bowie: Adam Lambert

3.12.2013
By Adam Lambert

Beware of the Diamond Dogs.

My father is a huge Bowie fan, and about the time I first got interested in what he was listening to, he pulled out the Diamond Dogs album. The cover was just so cool and trippy and weird. At that point I was really into Halloween and costumes, and when my dad played me the album, I thought, Oh, it’s a Halloween thing. I was maybe 8 or 9, but I didn’t really start appreciating Bowie for myself until my early twenties, when I was getting into glam rock. A light bulb went off—I wasn’t into drag, I didn’t want to dress like a woman, but I wanted to express my gender and artistic identity differently than the mainstream. Bowie was a key inspiration.

  1. What is the tattoo on Adam’s neck? Is it a tattoo that Adam got that I miss seeing?

  2. Our dear Adam is multi talented! I love Adam. Haven’t seen him in person yet. I hope someday I will.

  3. All I can say is that I’m glad Adam isn’t into drag. I love that he knows who he is. That drag stuff is way too confusing. I love that Adam is a very confident man. He exudes confidence in everything that he does. He doesn’t even need the eyeliner 🙂
