Singer Adam Lambert has clarified
comments he made in a recent Rolling Stone interview about
marriage.
The 29-year-old Lambert said that he
“never considered marriage before. But now that I am, I can't do
it.”
Most outlets, including On Top
Magazine, took the comment to mean that he lamented the fact that
he could not marry boyfriend Sauli Koskinen in his home state of
California where voters narrowly approved Proposition 8 in 2008.
And while California recognizes gay
couples with domestic partnerships, the union falls short of
marriage.
Rolling
Stone described the track Outlaws of Love, which is
included in Trespassing, Lambert's upcoming second studio
album, as a “smoldering serenade about gay marriage” and then
attributed the quote to Lambert.
On Wednesday, Lambert denied that he
and Koskinen were altar bound.
“I'm Not considering marriage …
Lol,” the tweeted to his nearly 1.2 million followers. “Think
what I MEANT was: 'even if I WAS to consider it, it wouldn't be an
option (in so many states)”
“Friends are asking me questions.
'huh?' haha. If I didn't ramble so much in interviews, my points
would probably be clearer,” he added moments later.
