Adam Lambert a top-earning 'Idol' alum - Quote :
- Former San Diego vocal powerhouse Adam Lambert came in second on "American Idol" in 2009, losing the top spot to Kris Allen. But, five years later, it is Lambert whose career is proving by far the more lucrative.
In Forbes magazine's annual tally of the 10 top-earning "Idol" alums, Lambert tied for third place with 2012 winner Phillip Phillips. Both made an estimated $5 million in 2013 , according to the financial magazine's estimates. The 2014 edition of "Idol," whose viewer ratings have plummeted in recent years, will debut tonight, Jan. 15, on Fox............read more on U T San Diego
15 'American Idol' Alumni Songs That Don't Suck
A rundown of the best tracks from the show's past contestants - Quote :
- Adam Lambert, 'If I Had You'
The Season Eight runner-up – aptly nicknamed Glambert – deserves props for avoiding the mid-tempo trappings most Idol alums fall victim to. This dazzling 2010 dance-pop track was co-written and co-produced by mega-hitmakers Max Martin and Shellback, and the video features cameos by Ke$ha and Season Eight's Allison Iraheta. Lambert has since become the first openly gay artist to have an album debut at Number One (2012's Trespassing) and has also served as the occasional frontman for Queen .

- Since it’s the beginning of a New Year, I think it makes perfect sense to recap how 2013 ended and how 2014 began here at WinStar. Typically, I spend New Year’s Eve at a friend’s house, so being in the casino was definitely a new experience! The energy was mountain high and everyone was full to the brim with excitement, which together made the perfect atmosphere for ringing in the New Year. My first stop was the Adam Lambert concert. I, personally, haven’t followed him much after he was on American Idol, but there was so much hype about his concert on Twitter that I began to have really high expectations. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed! That guy can sure put on a show. I think I lost some of my hearing while I was there, but it was worth it. On a side note, he has some of the most loyal, vivacious fans I’ve ever come across! They helped make the show extra awesome.
