Adam Lambert

Kris Allen called Adam Lambert his "closest gay" and Adam said Kris was "definitely becoming my closest straight" in an interview with E Online.

The two best friends will be spending a lot of time together this summer for the American Idol tour, and when speaking about his relationship with Kris, Lambert said his sexuality "doesn't frickin' matter."

He continued,

"It's just like when people were dealing with race relations. The moment we started getting over it as a society was the moment we stopped paying attention to the differences and paid attention to the similarities."

"People get so scared and uncomfortable with the ways in which they are different," said Adam.

"I think it's a testament to Kris that he's completely comfortable in his own skin, comfortable with his sexuality. He's a straight man, he's married and it's not threatening for him to be friends with a gay guy."

Allen agreed, saying, "That's what's wrong with the world. Why can't everyone just get along?"
