Adam Lambert addresses gay marriage on new album

Adam Lambert offers some insight into his upcoming dance-oriented album Trespassing in a new Rolling Stone interview.

This year, Lambert assembled hitmakers including Pharrell Williams, Dr. Luke and "Teenage Dream" co-writer Bonnie McKee to replace his 2009 debut's glam pop with a club-ready sound inspired by classic disco, Nineties electronica and Skrillex-y dubstep. He even got Chic's Nile Rodgers to play on "Shady," a sexy cut that Lambert describes as "Nine Inch Nails meets Saturday Night Fever."

"There's party music, sex music, fucked-up-relationship S&M music," Lambert says. "But every song explores something real."

Realest of all is "Outlaws of Love" – a smoldering serenade about gay marriage. "I'd never considered marriage before," says Lambert, who's dating Sauli Koskinen, a Finnish reality-TV personality. "But now that I am, I can't do it."

Adam Lambert is also set to discuss his evolving look on a future episode of All On the Line with Joe Zee on The Sundance Channel. Here's a preview.

This story will be featured in the December 8, 2011 issue of Rolling Stone.
