OUT 'Power 50' 2010: Adam Lambert is 5th

Out Magazine has once again come up with its own 'Power 50', a listing
of the most powerful gay men and women in the world. And for 2010,
making a breakthrough is American Idol Season 8 Runner Up Adam
Lambert.


Adam Lambert is yet to celebrate his first year since winning as
runner-up in the 8th season of American Idol but he's already
considered the 5th most powerful gay in the world.


On top of the 2010 'Power 50' list is talk show host and Idol judge
Ellen DeGeneres who has grabbed the top spot from politician Barney
Frank. Ellen was #3 in 2007, then 1st in 2008, down to #2 last year
and back to #1 this year.


Other familiar names for me in the 'Power 50' 2010 list are multimedia
blogger Perez Hilton (26th), 'Milk' writer Dustin Lance Black (30th)
and actress Jodie Foster (41st).


How sad, Ricky Martin who just outed last month is isn't part of the
list, but for sure, he'll be up there in 2011.
