Rock Star Adam Lambert Rolls Into a New Sunset Strip Home

One of the glorious things about being wealthy is that if you see something you like, you buy it, regardless of what you already have. Rocker Adam Lambert has done just that, having recently purchased yet another Sunset Strip party pad for $6.5 million. He still needs to find a buyer for his other fab home, which is quietly listed for just under $4 million.

We can’t fault his latest purchase: He scored a deal on this Los Angeles home, which was originally listed for $7.9 million. It was sold by a corporate entity affiliated with Avril Lavigne’s latest love, Phillip Sarofim.

Shed no tears for Sarofim—he stands to inherit a Texas energy fortune worth billions, according to Variety.

Lambert’s latest pad is a three-story contemporary with five bedrooms and six baths. It features an open floor plan with a living area, dining area, and kitchen all flowing freely together. The L-shaped great room is punctuated by a floating staircase.

Fleetwood doors open both the modern kitchen and the living room to a backyard with a corresponding L-shaped infinity pool and spa, a generous lounging area with faux grass, and a built-in barbecue and bar. The backyard is bordered by gleaming white walls, a verdant hillside, and mature foliage, ranking the place high on the privacy scale.

Most of the bedrooms are en suite, but the master bath is something special. It has a private balcony with disappearing floor-to-ceiling glass doors in front of the soaking tub, as well as a steam shower. The master bedroom has a balcony, fireplace, and two walk-in closets. All the balconies have glass railings, for unobstructed views of the city below.

Other fabulous features include a climate-controlled wine cabinet and a basement home theater.

Lambert was the runner-up on the eighth season of “American Idol,” in 2009, and has gone on to become one of the singing competition show’s greatest successes. On his recent Queen + Adam Lambert global tour, he performed Freddie Mercury faves, as well as his own solo hits, with the members of Queen backing him. He’s also released three solo albums and has been a judge on both “American Idol” and “The X Factor.”
