NEW YORK — Clay Aiken is no fan of Adam Lambert. The "American Idol" also-ran has blasted this season's runner-up on his Web site, mocking Lamb...

So, could the black and glistening guyliner, the crystal cage shoulder pads, the inky Kelly Osborne bangs, been a factor in Adam Lambert's loss on the Idol finale?

Turns out Jay Leno was deeply upset by Adam Lambert's loss on "American Idol" the other night. So much so that he sobbed and tore up his "I Heart Adam...

It's a great spot for Lambert to be in because it brings all the attention to the "problem." I just don't think the "problem" in this case is homophobia.
Richard Laermer | Posted 06.21.2009 | Entertainment
I am sick of all this idle chatter. And then.... Last night millions (100? 50? Does it matter?) watched the annual crowning of their Idol on FOX. Ye...

Yes, homophobia is alive and well, which is why Lambert lost the ultimate title. Go ahead -- give me another reason.

This country is not yet ready to crown a young man who looks like Liza Minnelli their next American Idol.

If I invited Kris Allen to a dinner party, he'd show up and ask if he can chip in instead of bringing a casserole. Kris Allen brings nothing to the table.

The next time there's an Idol final, I'm not gonna listen to their singing, I'm gonna look into their soul. Maybe, just maybe the one that appeals to the heartland more has the better shot.

LOS ANGELES — Kris Allen's smooth vocals and boy-next-door image propelled him to "American Idol" victory Wednesday, turning the theatrical powe...

Idol needs to look relevant: the problem with being the most-watched, biggest moneymaker on network TV? There's nowhere to go but down.
Jay Michaelson | Posted 06.19.2009 | Entertainment
For a show about creating the next typical pop star, he is atypical. Simply being gay is, perhaps, no big deal -- but Lambert flaunts his gender non-conformity.
Michael Giltz | Posted 06.19.2009 | Entertainment
Well, Kris Allen gets to join Clay Aiken and David Archuleta as Idol contestants who never were put into the bottom two but failed to win it all.

Are there boundaries to declaring the next "American Idol" champ early? Apparently, nothing can contain the likes of Adam Lambert _ not even a difficu...

Now that we're down to the final battle between Allen and Lambert, I've come to believe that American Idol is like great literature, offering us the classic conflict of good v.s. evil.

We'll see tonight if all the praise and support pays off for Lambert, or fuels a backlash that cuts his Idol dreams short.
Michael Giltz | Posted 06.13.2009 | Entertainment
So is this the finale? Is Simon right when he says Adam Lambert is fated to win? Or could Kris Allen or Danny Gokey surprise everyone the way David Cook did last year?
Ken Levine | Posted 06.13.2009 | Entertainment
Where's the suspense? Adam, Kris, and Danny are like a presidential election between Barack Obama, Ralph Nader, and Lyndon LaRouche.

NEW YORK — The pressure is on for Danny Gokey, Kris Allen and Adam Lambert. There's just one week until the "American Idol" finale, and on Tues...

The bottom line is this -- Lambert has shocked judges each week with his strong rearrangements of songs, wailing vocals and fashion sense. A mustache seems the next logical step for Lambert.

EW took an inventive step in noting Adam's sexuality by making it a "footnote." This move is quite symbolic.
