Adam Lambert 'Starstruck By Fergie'

Adam Lambert was revealed how he felt starstruck when he met Fergie.

Adam had the chance to meet the Black Eyed Peas singer backstage of American Idol at the beginning of the year, while he was still a wannabe pop star in-the-making.

"Black Eyed Peas were onstage and I love Black Eyed Peas." Recalls Lambert. "I love pop music as well as rock music and Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas walked in."

"I was getting rhinestones glued onto my eyes at a backstage make-up mirror. She just wrapped her arms around me and gave me a big squeeze."

"She was going, 'I just love you'. I turned around and I was like, 'No, I love you!'" Adam continued.

"It was a great moment, just that kind of exchange. It gave me a lot of confidence going out there in my glitter platforms, thinking that Fergie thought I was cool. That felt good."

Lambert is gearing up for the release of debut album 'For Your Entertainment' next week.
