The singer's collaboration with the legendary Queen rock band since 2011 has also been a career-boosting venture. He has proven to be an ideal replacement for Freddie, according to Brian May, who has been with the band since its inception in the 1970s.

Roger and I have seen literally thousands of singers in our lifetimes, including some great ones auditioning for our We Will Rock You show, but we've never seen or heard anything like Adam. I always think that Freddie, with a wicked smile, would say something like 'I hate you, Madam Lambert' because even Freddie would have been gobsmacked at his range and his ability to reinterpret these songs which the four of us originally created together.

For me personally, when I first got into the business, I didn't do it with the intention of wanting to be in philanthropy - it sort of led me there. I found myself presented with the opportunity, and I was like yeah, I do genuinely have an interest in it, especially the direction it took into the queer space. Also, I have fans that aren't queer, so I thought it was a really good opportunity to bridge that gap between the community and our allies.
