Singer Adam Lambert says he and
boyfriend Sauli Koskinen are “super happy.”
The 30-year-old Lambert stopped by
cabler E!'s Chelsea Lately to pitch his upcoming sophomore
album Trespassing.
“So I was reading up on you and found
out that you are indeed gay,” host Chelsea Handler told Lambert
before asking about Koskinen, whom Lambert met in Finland.
“We're super happy. I met him when I
as out there doing a concert and … he's great. We're very happy,”
said Lambert. “I've always been the single guy so I'm just like,
'Yes! I got a boyfriend!'”
Handler took a jab at American Idol
host Ryan Seacrest when Lambert declared he's been out since 18.
“I was out of the closet the whole
time [I was on American Idol]. The whole time. No one ever
said to me, Ryan Seacrest didn't go, 'You gay?'”
“Ryan Seacrest has no business asking
anybody if they're gay,” handler responded, then turned her head to
one side and looking into the camera added, “Ryan.”
When Lambert brought up that he had
recently met Elton John, Handler joked that he was ready to pass on
the torch to Lambert.
“He's like, 'Good. You take the
torch, girl,'” Handler teased. (The video is embedded in the right
