Adam Lambert to appear on Oprah

“American Idol” runner-up Adam Lambert announced on his Twitter page that he will appear on the “Oprah Winfrey Show” for an interview. 

I assume Winfrey will ask him questions about his sexually explicit stage performance that caused controversy at the American Music Awards. 

Some people say Lambert wanted to shock the audience as a publicity stunt to draw attention to his new album. 

Whatever the reason, it obviously worked out in Lambert’s favor.  Lambert gets to sit down with Oprah, but Kris Allen (who beat Lambert on American Idol) doesn’t get a big exclusive sit-down interview with the talk show queen.

An air date for Lambert’s appearance hasn’t been determined.
