Since the Season 8 Finale, American Idol runnerup Adam Lambert seems to be getting way more press than the actual Season 8 winner Kris Allen. (A Rolling Stone cover & ABC-TV's 20/20.) 

That's unfortunate, but not because I was rooting for one over the other, but because all of the media attention for Adam has nothing to do with his incredible singing ability!  (Whether you like him or not, the guy CAN sing!)  Instead, it's focused on Adam's sexuality.  Who really cares???  I thought our society had moved passed that!  (Hello????  Elton John & Freddie Mercury, just to name 2 favs!)

Okay, now it's out there, so can we PULLLEEEEZ move past it and get on to the business at hand - his new album coming out this fall.
