What might Adam Lambert's "Rolling Stone" cover look like?


Nothing says "I know my music" like this classic John/Yoko cover from January 22, 1981.

So as I'm sure you've all forgotten this since Friday, let me recap: Adam Lambert is not the American Idol. He is, however, far more gregarious (and popular) with the press than the actual winner, and he was also kinda-sorta outed by Kara DioGuardi on The View on Friday.

At this point the common opinion is that Adam will be coming out as gay (officially, anyway) in this week's Rolling Stone, which begs two questions: 

First, they still publish Rolling Stone?

And second ... If Idol runner-up Adam has snagged the cover for his big coming out party, what might that cover look like?

We think the incredibly savvy Lambert likely has this all under control. But just in case he's been too busy to work on it, we're wondering if he looked to some of the mag's iconic covers for inspiration...

If Adam wants to play up the "bare all" quality of the interview, this little Jennifer Aniston number from March 7, 1996 might be a nice fit. (And btw ... sweet pooper, Adam!)

Adam likes his props and wacky costumes, so maybe this 1977 Star Wars cover would be a nice fit. And doesn't Danny Gokey look almost tall next to Alison Iraheta?!

If Adam wants to get all self-referential, he could mimic this Jackass cover from  Feb 2001 to emphasize the laser-focus the media has had on his sexuality since day one.

What do you folks think? Any of these work, or another iconic cover?
