Adam Lamberts dates Joan Rivers & it’s claimed he lost American Idol because he’s gay
June 11th, 2013 by Lisa McGarry.
US comedienne Joan Rivers has bagged herself a date with hot US singer Adam Lambert. The lucky duck!
The ‘For Your Entertainment’ singer showed up as a special guest on Rivers’ TV show ‘Fashion Police’ last night to help her celebrate a very important occasion, her 80th birthday.
The American Idol star took part in a challenge against basketball star Darius Morris and comedian Gilbert Gottfried as the three men did their best to impress Joan and win a date with her on her special night.
Adam detailed what he saw as their perfect first date and caught her attention with the mention of caviar and shopping. He said:
“We would be sipping champagne, caviar; we would shop the day away. I would take you to get a facial, dermabrasion, a peel, makeup done, hair set – buy you anything you want.”
He added that they would then “fall asleep watching Fashion Police”.
Joan would have been crazy not to choose him!
Meanwhile, it might all seem like ancient history now, but it’s been claimed that the reason Lambert lost Idol way back in 2009 was because he’s gay.
The glamorous singer finished in second place behind Kris Allen on the eighth season of the TV talent show and Los Angeles City Council President Herb Wesson is sure he can explain Adam’s loss.
Wesson made the claims when Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa presented Lambert with the City of Hope Award at City Hall a few weeks ago and he told the handsome singer:
“I am a tremendous American Idol fan. And that day that you, I guess, slicked your hair back, greased your hair back, put on a white tuxedo and sung Smokey Robinson … that was a phenomenal night.” Still, Wesson admitted that Allen was good, but “Adam came in second. And the only reason why you didn’t come in first, in my opinion, is because you were gay. And that ain’t right. You should have won. It was a runaway.”
We don’t think Adam’s done badly despite losing out though. His second album, Trespassing, made its debut in the number one spot on the Billboard 200 album chart last year and Lambert made music history as the first openly gay artist to achieve this top charting position.

Adam Lambert wins date with Joan Rivers
US comedienne Joan Rivers has scored a date with Adam Lambert.
The 'Better Than I Know Myself' singer appeared on the veteran comic's TV show Fashion Police last night (June 10) to celebrate her 80th birthday.
Lambert battled it out with basketball star Darius Morris and comedian Gilbert Gottfried to impress Rivers and win a date with the birthday girl.
The singer's shopping spree idea seemingly piqued interest, with Lambert eventually winning the contest. He said:
"We would be sipping champagne, caviar; we would shop the day away. I would take you to get a facial, dermabrasion, a peel, makeup done, hair set - buy you anything you want."
He added that they would then "fall asleep watching Fashion Police".

E!’s Fashion Police celebrated Joan Rivers’ birthday week (the icon turned 80 Saturday)
with a touch of glam, as the birthday girl scored the ultimate present: a dream date with Adam Lambert.
Lambert, who joined the comedienne as part of the show’s “Joan Week,” competed with comedian Gilbert Gottfried and basketball player Darius Morris for a special edition of “Joan’s Mating Game.” The host had to choose between the three gentlemen, despite her warning that she was “old and dry.”

Each “contestant” was asked the same question: Where would they take Rivers on a “dream date”? And each man put his best foot forward.
Gottfried promised he would take the host to a “diner where we can watch the pies roll around.”
“Money is no object since I won’t be bringing any,” he asserted.
Morris took a more romantic approach. The L.A. Lakers stud promised a trip on a yacht, with “champagne and chocolate covered strawberries” to round out the evening.
Lambert, however, pulled out the big guns: a shopping spree at Barneys, with the “entire store to ourselves.”
“We would be sipping champagne, caviar; we would shop the day away,” said the American Idol alum, sporting a stylish mustache for the occasion. “I would take you to get a facial, dermabrasion, a peel, makeup done, hair set -- buy you anything you want.”
And if that weren’t enough, the American Idol alum threw in a “sneak peek of a never before seen Broadway show,” where he would then tuck Rivers in, and they would “fall asleep watching Fashion Police.”
The other two bachelors didn’t stand a chance.
“We are going to have so much fun on our date,” said Lambert, a self-professed “Joan Ranger.”
Rivers also received birthday greetings from Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Johnny Weir, Heidi Klum and Fergie, who surprised the host by smashing a birthday cake in her face.
