Last week brought the video for Adam Lambert's "Time for Miracles," which features the "American Idol" runner-up crooning in the midst of an apocalypse (the song is on the sound track for upcoming end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it flick "2012").
This week, we can see where Lambert landed after the mayhem and destruction - in his own distant and peculiar galaxy, circa 1983.
The cover art for his new album, "For Your Entertainment," features the singer at his glammy best, but with a distinctly retro look to all that eye shadow and feathers. His look seems to be the love child of a 3-way tryst between Boy George, Adam Ant, and Ziggy Stardust, with a little Michael Jackson thrown in (the glove).
The image doesn't particularly match the mainstream love anthem vibe of "Time for Miracles," the only track that's been released so far. But Lambert proved his versatility on "Idol," making Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" as convincing as Tears for Fears' "Mad World," and the album, which also includes a track written by Lady Gaga, is sure to show off his range.
"For Your Entertainment" is due out November 23.
