At least Rolling Stone didn’t pay Adam Lambert $500,000 to tell the world what everyone already knew. American Idol runner up Clay Aiken cashed a huge paycheck for doing the same thing for People.
Coming out of the closet and finally confirming that he is gay, Clay Aiken reportedly didn’t do that for free as rumor has it, People pays him $500,000 to do the cover shoot for its October 6 issue. The amount of money, according to MSNBC, is paid for both his gay revelation and the exclusive right to publish the first picture of his newborn son, Parker Foster Aiken.

$500,000 is a very small amount compared to the approximately $14 million Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt received from the weekly publication for the first photographs of their twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline. It has been claimed that the small payout is due to the fact that Clay is less popular than Brangelina. [source]

As promised, Adam Lambert is clearing up all the speculation about his sexuality in the new issue of Rolling Stone.

“I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay,” Lambert tells the magazine. “I’ve been living in Los Angeles for eight years as a gay man.”

While Lambert is proud of his sexuality – “I embrace it,” he says. “It’s just another part of me” – he’s focused on his career. “I’m trying to be a singer, not a civil rights leader.”

Lambert, who says he was worried about coming out on American Idol because it would be “so sensationalized that it would overshadow what I was there to do, which was sing,” admits to having a crush on the his roommate and Idol winner Kris Allen.

“I was like, ‘Oh, s–, they put me with the cute guy,’ ” Lambert recalls of bunking in the Idol mansion with Allen. “Distracting! He’s the one guy that I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type – except that he has a wife. I mean, he’s open-minded and liberal, but he’s definitely 100 percent straight.” [PEOPLE]
