Obviously – I missed that one.
On 18th of June Michael Slezak, famous for his one and only Idolatry- interviews, wrote at Entertainment Weekly his view about the recently revealed by Adam Lambert wish of co-operating with Madonna. And he thinks it’s a wonderful idea!
When I read in Rolling Stone’s Adam Lambert cover story that the American Idol runner-up was starstruck during a recent meeting with Madonna, my first reaction was “Awww, that’s sweet.” But the more I think about it, the more the Idol-obsessed voices in my head are howling: “Starstruck? Bah! These two ought to be working together!” (…)
Not only would the hookup make sense musically, but it would also be a smart career move. For Adam, a Madonna duet would give him instant credibility outside the Idol universe – something he’ll need to break through the anti-Idol prejudice held by many a radio-station programmer.
For Madonna, being the first superstar artist to hit the studio with Adam would attach her to a young, exciting artist without the appearance that she’s suddenly become a follower instead of a leader. Plus, girlfriend could use some fresh gay-cred points, no?

As an Adam-fan I just want to thank you, Michael, for this article – completely agree!

I agree. A Madonna/Adam collaboration would be amazing.
