American Idol Season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert is coming to Manila on October 10 for a one night solo concert.

After American Idol alums like David Cook, David Archuleta, Kelly Clarkson, Jason Castro, Taylor Hicks, Constantine Maroulis, Alison Iraheta, and his season 8’s archrival Kris Allen, Adam will also make his presence felt in Manila where people are watching the top-rating show the same day it’s being watched in the US.

Adam is the first openly gay mainstream pop artist to launch a career on a major label in America. He released his debut album “For Your Entertainment” in November 2009, via RCA Records/19 Recordings. The album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 in December 2009, selling 198,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release.
