Vocal powerhouse Adam Lambert has revealed that he's never surprised by the cruel comments people post online. 

Speaking to Britain's Telegraph newspaper this week, the superstar admitted that it's hard to ignore the mean things you read about yourself online because there's always a temptation to look at the comments section of articles or posts:

"You can accidentally stumble into these like dark pits of despair and comment sections of the internet where people start fighting each other. It’s just too insane."

Lambert went onto add that messages shared online can be easily misconstrued or misinterpretated, which means that people get into fights for no real reason and tension is created unnecessarily:

“It’s really difficult these days to have a conversation or a debate or any sort of constructive conversation without people getting offended, or reading into things literally it’s difficult. I think the information age and social media has turned into this amazing place for us to connect and communicate, but it also creates a lot of issues. People pick things apart and it’s a lot easier to get offended by text on a screen than it is by an actual person because you miss the nuance and the intention behind things and the emotion behind things. People take things so literally right now
