American Idol runner up Adam Lambert has just been outed by judge Kara DioGuardi. The judge did a taped interview for The View which aired this past Friday. During the segment, Barbara Walters asked her if she though his perceived sexuality might have influenced the audience to vote for Kris Allen. Kara replied “Well, first of all, I hope not … because we should be judging on talent and viability in the music industry and they both [Lambert and Allen] had that. I don’t think that Adam [Lambert] was ever in [the closet]. I think he was always openly out.” When Barbara reaffirmed that it wasn’t the public’s perception that Adam was openly gay, Kara said “I think he was. I mean from what I’ve seen … I do. I never thought he wasn’t.” I wonder what Kara has seen that the rest of us haven’t.
