Season eight “American Idol” runner-up Adam Lambert says that he was starstruck when he first met Madonna.

He says, “I’ve met a lot of people that I look up to, artists that I respect. That’s been crazy. Just last night I met Usher, Enrique Iglesias and My Chemical Romance at the studio. I’ve just been meeting these artists and they know who I am now because of the show and Rolling Stone … it’s just weird to be on the same page as them, so to speak.”

Lambert goes on to say that he met the one artist who left him the most star struck, Madonna. He adds, “I met Madonna and that was pretty wild. Most everybody I’ve met is pretty cool and on the level, but Madonna is just legendary. I’ve been a fan of hers since I was a kid. So that’s definitely part of the intimidation factor.”

I’d be star struck, too. She’s a total icon.
