Stop the presses! Call the fashion police! And someone hand me a glittery glowstick — because Adam Lambert and his long-term hottie Oliver Gliese were caught doing the most scandalous thing two fabulous humans can do on a Saturday night: attending a Charli XCX concert. Yes, it happened. Yes, it was iconic. Yes, I’m jealous.
The 43-year-old glam-rock king and his Danish dreamboat strutted their sparkly selves into the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on May 3 like they were walking into their own music video. They were holding hands, serving looks, and giving big “Brat” energy. Honestly, the confidence was so palpable it probably made the security guards reconsider their entire life path.
For those who don’t remember (and shame on you if you don’t), these two first exploded onto the PDA scene in 2020 when they were spotted making out in the ocean. Not even just like, a quick peck — oceanic smooching. Like mermaid-level romance. Fast forward to 2022, they popped up together at the Blonds Fashion Show looking like they were about to debut a joint fragrance called “We’re Hotter Than You.”
Meanwhile, our boy Adam was busy being a literal Emcee — no really, he wrapped up a Broadway stint in Cabaret in March. And in February, he shut down some crusty audience member who laughed at an antisemitic line. Because even in stage makeup and fishnets, Adam Lambert will collect you like a library fine.
Adam and Oliver are still thriving, still fabulous, and still attending concerts of hyperpop icons. The rest of us? Just trying to match their level of public fabulousness and failing, honestly.
Wanna cry about it or start bedazzling an outfit for the next Charli concert? Your call.
