Adam Lambert is still in there with a chance of the big win on American Idol this Wednesday. We all know he has the talent. But will the public States-side vote for a gay singer when it really matters in the final when there is the option of supporting Kris Allen. *hiss*. On a show that has a reputation for nudging its contestants into hiding their private lives and pasts, it seemed unlikely that a character like Adam could have progressed so far regardless or talent. Maybe it is all part of Obama mania and shifting attitudes in conservative America. The show even seems to be actively pushing his flamboyant side and allowing him to wear his makeup and ‘lively’ clothing. Whereas Kris is most girls and some gay guys perfect guy with his dreamy eyes and seductive smile, will he be able to steal votes from Adam’s apparent musical superiority in his spandex?
