In a recent interview with THE FABLIFE openly gay singer Adam Lambert talks about how ignorant people make being gay hard:
“I think one of the things about doing this as a career is that I’m able to give people strength and encouragement that feel like outsiders, especially being openly gay,” he told us. “But one of the things I haven’t gotten to do is sing about how it sucks sometimes, how it hurts, and the pain and the struggle that the LGBT community goes through on so many different levels. And that’s what this song is about.
“It’s really a very honest reflection of the sadness,” he said. “And it’s not the sadness about being gay, it’s the sadness about the adversity we face. That’s the difference. I don’t find being gay sad at all. I’m really happy.” Adam continued, “I think that’s another ignorant misconception. ‘Oh, it’s a really hard life.’ It’s only hard because of the ignorant people.”
Adam Lambert’s highly-anticipated sophomore album will be released this fall. The video for his first single ‘Better Than I Know Myself’directed by Ray Kay can be seen on Youtube beginning at 7:00 pm tomorrow.
