I'm a Belieber: The 11 Greatest Superfan Communities

Glamberts are a lot like Claymates – only with a lot of glitter and without delusions that their idol is heterosexual. And unlike Aiken, Adam Lambert has many young fans. Some of them had never seen anything as fabulous and glitzy as Lambert until the eighth season of American Idol and instantly fell in love.
Mike Munich was one of the GaGa egg carriers at the Grammys & knows Adam too!
Quote :
He shot the pilot for the uber-popular (and uber-gay) “Glee” as part of Vocal Adrenaline, the rival group of New Directions, and stayed with the show all along. He also did an American Music Awards performance with gay singer Adam Lambert and was in Lambert’s “For Your Entertainment” video.
“He’s great,” Munich says. “He’s so lovely and sweet and he really took care of us. After the AMA performance, he gave all of us and the band $100 gift certificates for (spa) Burke Williams. He’s so talented and so fun to be around. Some of my good friends were friends of his before he was famous.”

Adam Lambert has urged his fans to give to the Red Cross.
The singer wants his Twitter followers to give aid to help New Zealand, where an earthquake recently struck.
“So saddened by news of quake in New Zealand.” Adam tweeted. “Please lend aid” – click here to donate.
Adam is always using his powers for good. For his 29th birthday, Adam set up a platform for fans to donate to chartiy:water, which aims to bring clean water to people in developing nations.
Sam: There are several successful openly gay Pop artists such as Adam Lambert and Ricky Martin. Do you think that people are ready to embrace an openly gay Urban artist?
Marsha: I have no idea. I mean it’s still something that is shunned upon regardless if it’s out in the open or hidden or whatever. I can’t even say it’s just the Urban industry; it’s the world.
You know I have many gay friends in the industry who have then come back to me and been like “why does it take a straight woman to tell our story?” I couldn’t tell you. I’m just telling you like it is.
It’s not uncommon for people who’ve gone through these situations. I think if it did take that for me to open the door, a line of communication to be spoken about, then so be it and if it is being spoken about then that’s all I could ever ask.
