Well, I never, in a millions years, would have suspected that American Idol, season eight, runner up, Adam Lambert would head out on the road with Queen. But, nevertheless, here we are! It has been announced that the two rockers will co-headline a 19-date tour, kicking off June 19 in Chicago, IL and wrapping up in Columbia, MD on July 20.
Lambert and Queen were initally introduced back in May of 2009 when they performed together on the American Idol stage. He later joined Queen in Russia, Poland, Ukraine and London in 2011. The rather flamboyant and theatric Lambert said to GMA, “I’m honored to be able to pay my respects to Freddie‘s memory; he’s a personal hero of mine, and I am deeply grateful for the chance to sing such powerful music for fans of this legendary band.I know this tour will be a huge milestone for me, and with the support of Brian, Roger and the rest of the band, I feel like magic will be on display".
Other famous Idol alumni include, Kelly Clarkson, Phillip Phillips, Carrie Underwood, Scotty McCreery, and Chris Daughtry.
