Adam Lambert: Still in Love!

He may be a big singing star now and performing in different cities as part of the nationwide American Idol tour, but Adam Lambert says he and boyfriend Drake LaBry are still going strong.

The runner-up to the Idol crown tells E! Online’s Marc Malkin:”It’s going really well, it’s going just fine. We’re dealing with [being apart] just fine.

Adam, 27, added that he would, of course, like to spend more time with his 24-year-old boyfriend who he was with before Ido superstardom hit earlier this year: “I’m excited for the future when I’m in L.A. for more than, you know, a day. It’ll be nice.”

Lambert is on the Idol tour with winner Kris Allen and the rest of the show’s top 10 finishers. Allen has commented previously that Adam and Drake are a “cool combination,” because they’re so different. “Drake’s from Louisiana and Adam is from L.A.,” he says. “But they click well and they’re really nice together.”
