It's official: Adam Lambert is a sexy bachelor!

People magazine is about to release their Hottest Bachelors issue, and along with cover boy Chace Crawford and other straight hotties like Chris Pine and the hair guy from Twilight is none other than out Adam Lambert.

Even though it may seem that People caters to the housecoat-and-hair-roller set (don't look at me like that ... my mother would always walk around in a housecoat and hair rollers ... and bunny slippers ... while waving around a rolling pin over her head in a threatening manner), the magazine has actually been very gay-inclusive through the years.

In the past we've seen out stars like T.R. Knight, Neil Patrick Harris, and Tim Gunn included on their sexy lists, and the magazine received kudos for their coverage of the Matthew Shepard murder, and were positively recognizing same-sex couples as far back as thirty years ago.

As far as Adam goes, if People really wants to show how gay-inclusive they are, they should name him "Sexiest Man Alive". After all, who are the alternatives this year? The hair guy?

    Well, for what it's worth,

    Well, for what it's worth, apparently he agrees with you:

    “American Idol’s” Adam Lambert recently revealed that he’s gay and single and now the rocker has scored himself a spot on People’s Hottest Bachelor’s list.  

    “Am I really?” the raven-haired singer asked Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell, who revealed the news. “I’m not hot!”

     (The raven-haired singer. Man, that writer should be shot.)

    I wish he'd make up his mind about whether he's single or not.

    Adam's never said he was anything other than single

    Adam has never called Drake his boyfriend or implied that he wasn't single. 

    The media assumed Drake was his boyfriend because they went on some dates and were holding hands and being affectionate and then wrote  bizarre stories about the "love affair" between Adam and Drake with no actual information.

    All of those guys on the list have been seen with girls in intimate situations  but they are still considered to be "single" until they actually state that they are 'taken" (and I don't mean married)

    Adam should be treated no differently.

    Well, he's not married, so

    Well, he's not married, so technically he's a bachelor, although I wouldn't call him single either. Actually, he just got asked about this in a live chat interview this afternoon:

    That's pretty clear.  Single, dating, not in an exclusive relationship. Other random comments:

    [Comment From Ace (ontdai)]
    Adam, how did you first discover Glamrock, and specifically Velvet Goldmine?
    4:41
    Adam Lambert: Haha... I was aware of who David Bowie was. My father has his records and showed me some of the cover art and I was very intrigued by somebody in 70s rock that dressed the way he did. It was very cool and inventive. Then I discovered T Rex. I don't know how I found Velvet Goldmine, but once I saw it, I was obsessed with it. I thought it was a genius movie, both in plot and also, visually and musicially. In all elements it was just really cool.

    Props, but ...

    Props to People for being gay-inclusive in this case, but ... if I remember correctly, when they featured Tim Gunn, they devoted about a half-page to him without mentioning or even hinting that he was gay. Often in these kind of profiles, guys are asked what they're looking for in a woman. I can't recall if T.R. Knight or Neil Patrick Harris were even identified as gay, let alone asked what they found attractive in a guy.
