Adam Lambert will embark on his first headlining tour, an audio and visual spectacular, both theatrical and atmospheric, that will give his millions of fans something they’ll love to listen to and look at. “I hope the audience will be able to escape for a few hours and fall into a world full of glam, drama and excitement,” Lambert says. “And I would love everyone to come away with a new appreciation for the music on my album.”
Adam’s debut album For Your Entertainment (19 Entertainment / RCA Records) has sold over 600,000 copies since making it’s debut at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 chart in November. Adam’s hit single “Whataya Want From Me,” written by Pink and Max Martin, became Adam’s first #1 hit on the Billboard charts, topping the Hot Singles Sales survey as well as Hot Dance Singles Sales chart. “Whataya Want From Me” has been a smash hit on many charts, including the Hot 100, Pop Songs, Adult Top 40, Adult Contemporary, Hot Digital Songs and Hot Dance Club Play. It has also become an international hit, going top 10 in Australia, Japan, Sweden and Finland and reaching #1 in Singapore.
“Adam is one of the most exciting artists I have ever seen live on stage,” says Simon Fuller, Adam Lambert’s manager and creator of American Idol. “As great as he was been on the “American Idols Live” summer shows, this tour is going to surpass anything he’s done before. I think his millions of fans will remember this tour for the rest of their lives.”
Adam’s performances on Season 8 of “American Idol” are already legendary, his live televised collaborations with Queen and KISS were a highlight of his season and his stunning performances of songs including “Mad World,” “The Tracks Of My Tears,” “Ring Of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Love” are still widely regarded as some of the most captivating moments in Idol history.
Opening for Adam on “The Glam Nation Tour” will be fellow Season 8 “American Idol” finalist Allison Iraheta. At 18, Allison Iraheta has already begun to make her mark in the music industry. After coming in fourth on Season 8 of “American Idol,” this vibrant red-haired rocker was signed to 19 Recordings/Jive Records, and released her debut album, Just Like You, this past December. Her first single, “Friday I’ll Be Over U,” quickly climbed the top 40 charts.
