Whether you love him or love to hate him, one thing’s for sure—Adam Lambert was born for the spotlight. After breathing new life into Queen’s legendary sound, he’s now turning heads with a fiery, full-throttle tribute to Elvis Presley that has fans doing a double take. Strutting across the stage in a bold rendition of “Blue Suede Shoes,” Lambert didn’t just pay homage to the King—he became him, channeling that iconic swagger with a voice powerful enough to shake the walls of Graceland. Blake Shelton gave it a shot, but Adam? He’s rewriting the rulebook on how legends come back to life.

Introduction

In a dazzling nod to the King of Rock and Roll, Adam Lambert took the stage wearing a sharp pair of baby blue suede shoes, channeling Elvis Presley’s iconic swagger and signature snarl. His electrifying performance of “Blue Suede Shoes” was part of NBC’s Elvis All-Star Tribute, a special broadcast honoring the legendary 1968 Comeback Special.

The two-hour event aired on Sunday night, February 17, and paid homage to the moment that helped reignite Elvis’s career. It brought together some of today’s biggest stars for a night of unforgettable music and memories, blending live performances with rare archival footage and heartfelt interviews. Notably, Priscilla Presley and Steve Binder, the director behind the original ’68 special, shared personal reflections, while Lisa Marie Presley made a poignant appearance.

Hosted by The Voice coach Blake Shelton, the program featured a star-studded lineup that included Shelton himself alongside Carrie Underwood, Yolanda Adams, Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez, Kelsea Ballerini, and many others. Each artist brought a unique energy to the stage, reimagining Elvis’s classics with respect and flair.

Among these standout performances, Adam Lambert’s rendition of “Blue Suede Shoes” stood out for its raw intensity and flair. Originally written and recorded by Carl Perkins in 1955, the rockabilly anthem became one of Elvis Presley’s early hits after he released his version in 1956. Lambert, a former finalist from American Idol Season 8, embraced the spirit of the song with a modern edge, igniting the crowd with his powerful vocals and stage presence.

Watch the performance below and see why fans are still talking about this modern tribute to one of Elvis’s most iconic songs:
