Adam Lambert: 'I didn't think I'd have a shot' - BBC News

Adam Lambert has hit back at homophobic trolls who criticised his boyfriend’s appearance on social media over the weekend.

The ‘Holding Out For a Hero’ singer has been dating his partner Oliver Gliese for over two years.

The 40-year-old regularly posts photos of Oliver, 28, on Instagram, where Oliver’s gender-queer sense of style sometimes attracts anti-gay comments.https://www.instagram.com/p/CrXg_5mu9uB/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=540&rd=https%3A%2F%2Famericanenigmas.com&rp=%2Fvubtvlita%2Fadam-lambert-snaps-and-publicly-shreds-haters-coming-for-his-relationship-no-more-mr-nice-guy-as-he-drops-brutal-truth-bombs-defending-his-love-sparks-internet-meltdown-leaves-fans-shook-an#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A8837.39999999851%2C%22ls%22%3A2447.5%2C%22le%22%3A8830.199999999255%7D

“Oli and I had a fun night out!” the ‘What Do You Want From Me?’ singer said in an Instagram Story. “Rare to encounter paps in WEHO – so retro. Haha. Lifts my spirits to see support in the comments.”

“Oli identifies as a he,” the former Attitude cover star went on. “He has wicked style and refuses to conform to the societal norms regarding his fashion choices.

“He is beautiful and brave and daring. He’s a leader not a follower. One of the many things i love about him!”

Adam – who released his fifth studio album High Drama earlier this year, and headlined Pride In London last month – furthermore continued: “We are very happy together and if the haters don’t like it, we don’t really give a f**k.

“Grow up and challenge yourself to explore tolerance. We are all just trying to stay happy and fulfilled with our lives.”

She didn’t cry when the cameras rolled — not yet. But as Sharon Osbourne reached into her coat and placed a small, hand-stitched pouch atop Ozzy’s casket, those closest knew what it meant. Inside was a lock of her hair, wrapped in the same ribbon she wore the night they first met. “So you’ll never be alone,” she whispered, just loud enough for her children to hear.

On The Tonight Show, his rendition of “I Don’t Care Much” became an emotional exorcism. The room fell into stillness as every lyric felt like a whispered confession from a soul pushed too far. You could hear the cracks—raw, aching, real. Jimmy Fallon wiped his face. The audience sat in stunned silence, hearts breaking in unison. And when Adam finished, the ovation wasn’t loud—it was grateful. Because sometimes… the bravest thing you can do is let the pain be seen.
