THE SHOT — Sure, you can see Adam Lambert as he is today, proudly walking hand-in-hand with the boyfriend. But what about when Lambert was a normal kid, hanging out with the family?

Adam looks unrecognizable in these photos compared to today. He looked a lot better now then he did then.
mmmhmmm
You shouldn’t write: “when Lambert was a normal kid.” What is not normal about him now? I don’t like the insinuation that holding hands with guys or wearing eye-liner is “not normal.” I would expect such close-mindedness on a site like E!online, but I’m surprised to see it here.

It surprises me how many people get stuck on choice of words, rather than seeing the point of the article. I’d love to meet someone who was ALWAYS correct with their choice of words. People need to relax and get over their need for everyone to be perfect. ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN!!!

@mmmhmmm: “Normal” = non-celebrity. Yeah, on a site like Queerty we’re pretty aware that gay people are normal.

The Lamberts is the coolest family ever. Period.
And I love yellow labs!!!

Because one Giant American Flag is just not enough.

cute pics, he’s a lucky man to have such a great family. . . and his now-adult-Brother is hillarious.
The Gay Numbers
I think he is better looking without all the crap on, but that’s me. I find the glam stuff 30 years after Bowie and everyone else who did it before Lambert is now boring. But, again, that’s just me. Finally, I find it uninteresting to reference all of this as “gay” since again a million people have done that before Lambert. Again, that’s just me. I find the gay orthodoxy boring in general in its unoriginality and cookie cutter presentation of what’s “gay.”

Which kid in the photo is Adam? Both boys look like him.

@hephaestion: Adam is on the far right in the first picture and second to the left is the second.

Aww – he used to be a chunky kid. Like me! It’s funny how some people age better than others. I was a fat kid in high school, now I’m svelte and cute, and all the hotties from high school are fat guys or conservative housewives.

He looks happy doesn’t he, I mean, not that he’s not happy now. I’m sure he is.
Anyway, why are we talking about this boy, can’t we just let him be and go out and have an amazing life and an a great career? Why is everything he does such news?
I personally don’t wanna know his personal life. If he creates music that is to my personal taste, I’ll go out and buy it and maybe go and see him perform it, but I don’t need to know everything about him. It keeps them (celebs) more interesting that way.

Looks like a FUN and accepting family. (The accepting part confirmed by his family’s support during Idol)
I’m uber happy for Adam!
Butch
His family is good looking…and his dad, WOOF!
osocubano
Is he the one on the far left? He was really cute.
Coke
His male parental unit looks like an asshole.

Normal? He’s totally normal now. You rock, Adam! But, I do like him with the black hair better. He’s handsome like his dad.

what’s not to like. he’s a cute kid. his family is adorable. you can see why he is such a beautiful person today. just look at his mom and dad and brother and see how loved he is and how much fun they have together.
