What gets Adam Lambert excited? A chance to prove that he can still command an 'Idol' audience.

Via Lambert's twitter account he said:

"Yes, I have been booked on Idol!"

"Can't reveal the date yet"

"but it's a ways off...So excited."

Lambert's career is rolling along nicely, his CD For Your Entertainment officially went gold (selling over 500,000 copies). No small feat these days for anyone in the music industry.

Lambert trivia:

"For Your Entertainment" debuted at number three on the Billboard charts

"For Your Entertainment" has never fallen below the top fifty since it was introduced.

On Amazon.com:
"For Your Entertainment" is the 57th highest selling album.

It is also the 18th highest selling album in the Rock category, and the

56th highest selling album in the Pop category on Amazon.

Meanwhile the recently released single "Whataya Want From Me" is doing really well on it's own and is currently placed at number 35 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs.

Kris Allen, who actually won American Idol last season, has also recently released an album; its sales remain far below the half million sold by Adam Lambert.
