'Ghost Town' hitmaker Adam Lambert has admitted that touring and performing with iconic rock band Queen helped propel him back into the spotlight and 'reframe' him in a different way. 

The National Post explains that the superstar valued his time on the road with Queen because it gave him a chance to do something outside of what he was initially known for:

“It put me in a different space in my career and my personal life. It definitely gave me a confidence boost and helped reframe me in the public. Queen jumped genres like crazy. They’re the king of that... Or the queen of that.”

During a new interview with OUT magazine, meanwhile, Lambert admitted that his new music on 'The Original High' shows a departure from his theatrical style and a move into more confident and self-assured territory:

"When you’re younger and you’ve got a skill, you tend to show off more — you feel like you have more to prove. Over the last few years, I’ve gotten into a place where I feel a little more confident in what I do, and I don’t feel I need to prove myself as far as ‘look at all the tricks I can do.’ Now music for me is more about wanting to prove that I can feel something."
