The singer clapped back after photos of him and his partner, Oliver Gliese, on a night out in West Hollywood sparked 'obnoxious homophobia and ignorance' on Instagram.

Singer Adam Lambert tore into homophobic trolls who targeted his partner in a photo of them together on a night out in West Hollywood in Los Angeles, California.

Since 2020, the Queen frontman and American Idol season 8 finalist has been dating Oliver Gliese, who works in the fashion industry.


They were spotted together with friends at the Hi Tops bar on August 4 in the trendy part of town known for its LGBTQ+ nightlife.

Photos online showed Lambert wearing a black outfit with a low v-neck and unbuttoned black shirt and Gliese in a black and white ensemble with a mesh shirt and cutoff denim shorts and silver jewelry.

Lambert's fans were happy to see the couple enjoying an evening together on swanky Santa Monica Boulevard on the Sunset Strip.

Others, however, were not as kind.

Homophobic trolls went after Gliese for his outfit, his gender and sexual identity.

Rather than ignoring and allowing the haters to continue leaving bigoted comments, Lambert laid into them and challenged them to be better people.

On Saturday, he wrote on Instagram story:

"Oli and I had a fun night out!"
"Lifts my spirits to see support in the comments."
"Also appalled to see the obnoxious homophobia and ignorance plaguing people [right now]."

The singer continued:

"Oli identifies as a he."
"He has wicked style and refuses to conform to societal norms regarding his fashion choices."
"He is beautiful and brave and daring. He's a leader, not a follower. One of the many things I love about him!"
"We are very happy together and if the haters don't like it, we really don't give a f'k!"

Lambert then demanded haters do better.

"Grow up and challenge yourself to explore tolerance."
"We are all just trying to stay happy and fulfilled with our lives."

He ended with:

"Chances are, if you're busy trolling us online, you're miserable in your own life and can't deal w[ith] your issues."

Fans applauded Lambert's post.








The couple's night out came a week after Gliese celebrated his 28th birthday with a star-studded bunny-themed party attended by their friends including Kate Beckinsale and Lil Nas X.

Lambert is scheduled to perform with Queen for their Rhapsody Tour which will begin in October 2023.

Outrage After Video Captures ICE Pepper-Spraying Protester Directly In The Face While He's Pinned Down

Anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis continue to grow in the weeks since an ICE agent killed Renee Nicole Good. Now people are crying foul after a different agent was filmed spraying a man directly in the face with a chemical irritant while he was pinned to the ground by two other ICE agents.

In south Minneapolis, near West 28th Street and Blaisdell Avenue, agents pinned a person to the ground and sprayed a bright orange chemical irritant directly into their face. The clashes between federal agents and local residents erupted shortly before 2 p.m. Wednesday, after the detention of two people near the intersection drew dozens of protesters who began shouting at officers.

Jesse Watters Dragged After Spouting Ridiculous Theory About Why Critics 'Never' Call Trump 'Dumb'

Fox News personality Jesse Watters was dragged after he offered the ridiculous theory that critics "never" call President Donald Trump "dumb"—even after all of the criticism Trump has received for outrageous and uninformed remarks he made at this year's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Trump "appeared to mix up Greenland and Iceland around three times" during his rambling speech to the world elite, per one reporter, a claim that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt flatly denied. He also claimed Europeans call him "daddy"—what?—and said the Swiss, who already largely speak German, would be speaking German were it not for the U.S.
