Adam Lambert addresses bullying issue: 'More should be done to help kids cope'

Vocal sensation and former 'American Idol' runner up Adam Lambert has called for more to be done both to prevent bullying and to help young people to deal with it.

Writing on his official Twitter page earlier today (January 11), the 'Trespassing' hitmaker explained that action needs to be taken:

"Bullying sucks. It's true. I feel like we should focus more on helping kids cope and build a thick skin rather than focusing on the bullies?"

This tweet comes just a day after modern pop icon Lady Gaga wrote an 'open letter' to Kelly Osbourne, criticising her for dishing out the kind of negativity and verbal abuse she used to receive before she slimmed down.

Although Osbourne hasn't responded to the situation, her mother Sharon publicly replied this morning and defender her daughter, calling Gaga the bully for encouraging her 32 million Twitter followers to think badly of her.
