LOS ANGELES _ It's the latest stop on the real estate tour for "American Idol" alum Adam Lambert. The singer with the show-stopping voice has bought a modern home in the celebrity-popular Hollywood Hills for $6.5 million, records show.
Lambert, who this month has been performing with rock band Queen in Las Vegas, should be familiar with the area. His new place is about a mile from another home he owns.
Completed two years ago, the two-story contemporary sits behind gates on a quarter-acre of grounds. Pocketing doors bring the outdoors into the open-space floor plan _ particularly in the center-island kitchen, where two walls of glass fold back to flank the space.
Also within the more than 5,000 square feet of hardwood-lined interiors are five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a movie theater and an office. The main level holds a living room with a fireplace, a dining area and a wine closet.
Out back are lawn, an infinity-edge pool and spa with canyon views. A covered patio and outdoor kitchen, which sit below the master suite balcony, complete the setting.
Lambert, 36, was a runner-up on "Idol" in 2009, the same year he released the album "For Your Entertainment." His most recent album, "The Original High" (2015), was a top 10 album in the U.K.
