In reply to Mark111.

Adam didnt announce he was gay, rather while in idol pics surface and ppl were gay shaming him, say "he's gay, why should he win" and was gay bashed for being gay. He didnt make it important, the public did n that hinder him from winning idol. So he was outed publicly to the world and was like I'll run with it as the public made it about who he is, the gay runner up in idol season whatever
