'American Idol': Adam Lambert mentoring the Top 8
"American Idol" Season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert is mentoring the Top 8 Idols next week, FOX confirms for Zap2it.The information leaked when a person from Sony Music revealed Adam's return to "Idol" over an email.
The email was then posted in a Twitpic and it says, "FYI: Adam Lambert is going to be the mentor on American Idol. Adam will mentor the contestants from the perspective of a former contestant (which has never happened before). Tuesday show mentoring, and then Adam will perform "Whataya Want From Me" on Wednesday. Adam will own American Idol next week! THAT'S a LOT of audience talkin'..."
This information gibes with what we've learned from Adam's manager about his brief stint in the U.S. in the middle of his international tour. He'll arrive later this week (his last gig in Canada is April 9) and be in the States for two weeks. The Wednesday, April 14 performance on "Idol" coincides with the U.S. release of his EP that includes "Voodoo."We figured Adam would be working on "Idol Gives Back," but it looks like he's mentoring instead. Or maybe he's doing both!
What do you guys think? Will Adam Lambert be a good mentor for the Idols?

What a joke. Knowing that the person who's going to mentor you...LOST!
that was a stupid comment to make. looks like your the real loser. why do people who do not even like adam google him and make comments. Its because they really like him but for some reason are too afraid to admit it :)
Why not just get Kris Allen instead?? He WON - Lambert LOST. Debbie, calm down - its so funny how you people jump on Lamberts bandwagon and the guy hasn't done squat to deserve it. No hit album, no hit single, where is all the whoopla this man was supposed to cause?? Is it just online?? here??
This is so exciting! Adam is electric on the stage - he will bring some fire back to AI!
He'll be a fantastic mentor!! They couldn't have chosen a better one. I can't wait to see what he does. If in fact it's true.
Mr. G chill baby, relax. Kris isn't exactly burning up the charts. Here he the one who supposedly won and hasn't even reached gold status he hasn't even hit 300k. As a matter of fact he's dropped off the charts entirely. Adam is platinum and gold in many countries.
Mr. G (or should I say bitter Krisbert): your boy wasn't picked. There are many reasons for that. I will be nice and not go into them.
His album was released during the same week as Lady Gaga's, and he sold more and peaked higher. I think that constutes as a hit album.
His current single is blowing up on radio airplay and sales. It's a top 20 hit.
I'd say all together he's done pretty well for a "loser".
i am calm. you just fail to realize that you people just jump around on his sites to trash talk. There is no reason for it. Just because someone wins something does not make it right or deserving. Kris is slipping off the charts nobody is remembering him but yet we dont go around bashing him. Just go to who you like not who you donlt like. I love how you people emphasize on LOST. who cares who wants that title anyways not ADAM and he is more and will always be more successful than KRIS so just get over it
I hope this is true!! Please let it be true!! The show needs this!! But it all started from one tweet from a DJ in Iowa. ANyone can fake a memo a two year old could do it.
