Adam Lambert, the runner-up of American Idol season 8, asserted his being unique-looking role model. He said, 'It's a really, really cool thing to be able to show people that you can be yourself, and you should be proud of yourself, and you should own who you are and what you're about, and never make apologies for it.'
On his sexuality, he conferred, 'Calm down… keep speculating.' And as a role model to kids and teenagers, 'It feels really amazing to be able to try and pass that on to kids and young adults who don't have a role model like that,' he says. 'It feels great because I never had a role model like that.'
'Conforming is not cool,' he added. 'Embracing who you are and what makes you different is actually what's really cool... The kids that are different and out there and expressive and are bold with those choices, those are the people that grow up to be people we all want to hang out with, that become celebrities or become really successful in what they do because they believe in who they are.'
