Queen fans...theres a new frontman.

Adam Lambert has confirmed he is set to join Queen as the band's new frontman for a tour this summer.

The star was joined by original group members Brian May and Roger Taylor during his finale performance on 2009's American Idol, and the trio teamed up once more at the MTV European Music Awards in November.

The collaborations led to speculation that Lambert would be stepping in to take the place of late singer Freddie Mercury in an upcoming trek, and Taylor fuelled the reports, saying in December, "He has grown into a really great performer with an astonishing voice... We would like to work with him again. There's nothing signed just yet but we're talking about live dates."

Lambert has now announced he will be touring with May and Taylor throughout 2012 - including dates at Knebworth in England, where Queen played their final gig with Mercury in 1986, before his death in 1991.

Don't know who Adam Lambert is but he is a douche for accepting to do this.

Wouldn't the members of Queen be bigger douches for asking him?

Seems Lambert is saying the right things....

"The intention is to pay tribute to Freddie and the band by singing some f--king great songs. It’s to keep the music alive for the fans and give it an energy that Freddie would have been proud of."

However, Lambert insists he doesn't intend to take Mercury's place: "After the EMAs, I heard faint little slithers of a backlash from people saying: ‘You can’t replace Freddie Mercury.’ But I already knew that.

"There’s no intention in my mind of replacing Freddie. That’s impossible. The way I’m choosing to view it is that it’s a great honour and one I’m in no way going to shirk...

    • He's either getting 5 year option,  extended or we let him seek free agency.  There won't be no bring him back for one year type deals his agent wouldn't allow it.  I just hope it isn't for like 50 million 5 year type deals.  I have nothing against him and root for him every game.  He's like Rozebloom , he gets a sack I'm cheering,  but wouldn't be mad at a up grade. Got to be a fan of the team and not a single player.  A large contract for an underperforming Qb will keep us from paying the defensive talent we need to take the next step..
    • Even the best panther teams historically embarrass themselves in primetime games. Combine that with Bryce having just used up his one good game per season….they really should’ve shown up against the saints to give me confidence in this game 
    • In our 6 victories, this team hasn’t played nor performed the same way twice.  We’ve won with defense, we’ve won with offense, we’ve won running the ball, we’ve won passing the ball. Consistency is a foreign concept to this team.  It’s gonna be “box of chocolates” style for the remainder of this weird ass season.
