Adam Lambert Gets Arrested, Is Released, Lives to Tweet the Tale

Well, if the old adage about any publicity being good publicity is true these days, then Adam Lambert just launched a genius campaign for his new single, "Better Than I Know Myself." According to The Hollywood Reporter and many other sources, the rebel Idol spent a few hours in a Finnish jail in the wee hours this morning, after an altercation with his Finnish boyfriend, Sauli Koskinen, in front of the famous Helsinki gay club Don't Tell Momma. Adam is currently in Finland to celebrate the holidays with Sauli.

Adam and Sauli were arrested around 4am this morning, after reportedly fighting in one of DTM's back rooms, getting kicked out of the club, and then taking what has been described as a "brawl" to the street. They were subsequently held for questioning for several hours, and news of their arrest rapidly flitted around the Twitterverse and blogosphere. But by the time American Glamberts woke up to the news, they could breathe easy: Adam and Sauli had already been released, and Adam was already joking about it on Twitter.

"Jetlag+Vodka=blackout. Us÷blackout=irrational confusion. jail+guilt+press=lesson learned. Sauli+Adam+hangover burgers= laughing bout it," Adam tweeted Thursday afternoon, Finland time.

Sauli, who is a reality star in his native land (he won the Finnish version of "Big Brother" in 2007), later blogged about the incident as well, assuring fans that he and Adam were still a couple by writing (in Finnish): "Celebrities are people too and fame is not easy. Love is not always easy either, but it's forever." He also assured readers that the "hangover is gone already."

While some reports inflated the incident and said that Adam had become violent against spectators who tried to break up the fight, former Miss Helsinki Sofia Ruusila, who was a member of Adam and Sauli's entourage that night, told the press that Adam merely struck her by accident when she tried to intervene.

Sniper/Billy was a big fan of his voice/singing... compared his vocal range to Freddie Mercury.

BTW, this is how it went on the show (AI)... pretty interesting reading... from Wiki...
_________
During Michael Jackson week, he sang "Black or White" leading to praise from all four judges, with Paula Abdul predicting that he would go on to the finals.[36] The following week, Lambert sang a version of "Ring of Fire". While Randy Jackson, Kara DioGuardi, and Abdul all liked his performance, Simon Cowell called it "indulgent rubbish".[37] On Motown night, Lambert sang an acoustic version of The Miracles', "The Tracks of My Tears". The judges all liked it, and Smokey Robinson, the week's mentor and the original singer-songwriter, gave Lambert a standing ovation. For his Top 8 performance, Lambert sang the 2001 Michael Andrews and Gary Jules arrangement of "Mad World". Because the show had exceeded its time slot, only Cowell gave a critique, which he did by simply giving Lambert a standing ovation. During the results next night, the other judges agreed that a standing ovation was the best critique of Lambert's performance.[38] For his second Top 7 performance, Lambert sang "If I Can't Have You", delivering what DioGuardi described as his "most memorable performance", while Cowell described his vocals as "immaculate". Abdul was reduced to tears, with host Ryan Seacrest joking that Lambert had melted her into a "pool of Abdul".[39] In the Top 4, Lambert was the first to sing, performing "Whole Lotta Love". Cowell commented, "that was one of my favorite performances...nobody can top that now", while Abdul, punning on the song's title, described Lambert's performance as "a whole lotta perfect".

Photos of Lambert romantically kissing another man surfaced while he was competing on American Idol. Initially shown and discussed by commentators on The O'Reilly Factor, the panel agreed that the images would likely have no impact on the competition.[40] Lambert confirmed that the photos were of him, stating he had nothing to hide and has always been open about his life.[41] Mainstream media speculation centered on Lambert's sexuality; presuming he was gay, he would be the first gay American Idol.[42][note 1] Much of the media focus regarded the readiness of American Idol voters for an openly gay winner.[42] Asked by Rolling Stone whether the speculation surrounding his sexual orientation impacted the final vote, Lambert laughed and said "probably".[43] He confirmed that he was gay in a Rolling Stone cover story interview shortly after he was named the American Idol runner-up.[44]
