Adam Wants Financial Security!

From People Magazine.


Adam Lambert has his eyes on the money!

The American Idol runner-up says he can’t wait to bank his first big paycheck.

“I’m looking forward to banking that paycheck,” he told People magazine. “I’m not going to lie, I mean, that’s not my first priority, but, you know, I think for all of us, having gone through experience, to be able to walk away with some financial security in these tough times is really nice.”

One the vibe of his new album, “It’s really about finding the sound that I want to communicate my ideas to people. On Idol, you’re doing cover music that’s tried and true material. I went the route of doing a lot of classic rock because I knew that that was the more vocal and it was songs that everybody connected with. In creating new material, I want to do something modern that will stand the test of time, and something that’s new. I’m being careful not to stay stuck in that sound, because it could end up being dated. So, I’m going to try to take the best musically from that era and make it mix with modern pop electronic production. It should be really different.”

The reaction to his Rolling Stone cover, “The response that I’ve felt is mostly positive support, so I think that’s great. It’s a testament to us really trying to become a bit more progressive and focus on what really matters which is that I’m an entertainer and a singer and that’s what it really needs to be about. My private life really has nothing to do with my ability to entertain.”

How he’ll pass the time on a crowded tour bus, “Definitely iPod. You know, escape in music is the best way to kind of be in your own little world. Books as well, I’ll probably grab some books.

“I’m such a music junky. I have everything all the time. You name it, I’ve downloaded it.”
