American Idol alum Adam Lambert will be honored at the 24th annual GLAAD Media Awards at the San Francisco ceremony May 11, the media advocacy organization said Thursday.

With America saying goodbye to Paul Jolley on Thursday night’s elimination episode of American Idol, it begs the question: Is this the end of the White Guy With Guitar era?

“For this show, yes,” says the 23-year old Dresden, Tenn., singer. “But in my eyes, I have already won ”

After Wednesday night’s disastrous episode of Don’t Forget The Lyrics, er, American Idol, the show insisted on reminding the audience how many years it has been (six) since a girl has won the Fox singing competition.

WELCOME 'HOME': Just last week we were writing about Phillip Phillips earning his eighth No. 1 on the Billboard charts. Well, what a difference seven days can make. The season 11 winner’s coronation song, “Home,” achieves pole position on two more charts this week, bringing his career total of No. 1s to 10. That moves him up into a tie for ninth place among all Idols for the largest grand total of chart-toppers, tied with Adam Lambert and Scotty McCreery.

Last January, Colton Dixon was cooling his heels in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, waiting for the 11th season of American Idol to unveil his audition to the world -- and his eventual rise to the top 12. Today, the seventh-place finalist will release his first album, A Messenger, on the EMI-distributed Christian label Sparrow Records. With his current single, “You Are,” rising to No.

Adam Lambert and 19 Recordings have parted ways, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Adam Lambert never has been shy about expressing himself, but he admitted Thursday that he was a little surprised his Les Miserables Twitter review had “gone viral.”

His initial comments, in which he opined that the film was “Visually impressive [with] great emotional performances. But the score suffered massively with great actors PRETENDING to be singers,” drew so much attention that even one of the film’s stars, Russell Crowe, addressed Lambert’s concerns.

The Les Miserables debate continues on Twitter.

Many thousands of moviegoers and musical theater enthusiasts lined up to see the big screen version of Les Miserables over the holiday break. Among those in the audience: American Idol alum and stage veteran Adam Lambert, who took issue with the film's vocal performances and let his opinion be known via Twitter.

Adam Lambert says he's ready to “dig in” to his hosting debut this Sunday for VH1 Divas adding that fans should get ready for “a little bit of everything."

This means seeing the American Idol favorite singing, acting, and of course, displaying his own unique sense of style. “A lot of the ideas for how I’ll be dressed are mine,” he teases. “Some of them I wish I could blame on somebody else, but I can't." He promises to change outfits "a zillion times."
