Adam Lambert: 'My wish is for gay to become less of a label - I'm not a separatist'

'Trespassing' sensation Adam Lambert has opened up about his hopes for the future of the LGBT community and confessed that he just wants being gay to be something that is widely accepted and not looked at as a 'label'.

During an interview with Hunger magazine, the vocal powerhouse was asked how he feels to be credited with advancing gay rights in the music industry and he admitted that he will continue to fight for equality because it's so important:

"I think there’s a simple power in being unapologetic and open about who and what you are and not letting it prevent you from getting what you want. In that way, I think I’ve made a statement. My wish is for gay to become less of a label, and more of just one of many great colours in the collective box of humanity. I’m not a separatist. I’m all inclusive."

Lambert, meanwhile, also recently told press that he isn't ever tempted to give up his musical ambitions when the going gets tough and is 'here to stay': "Not yet. I'm in it to win it - I'm here to stay. I'm going to keep fighting for it."
