Can Adam Lambert judge "American Idol" and star on "Glee" as either a regular cast member or in a special guesting roll next season? Guess that's the question in the wake of Wednesday's tweet by show creator Ryan Murphy -- and the subsequent follow-up by Lambert himself ("I'm so excited! :)") -- confirming said appointment.

Curiously, Fox is not confirming. In other words, Murphy got out before them on this. Or maybe Fox is just waiting on role details.

No details on his role (maybe that's what Fox is waiting for). Plus, there have been many reports that Lambert has been approached to judge "Idol" next season as part of a former contestant panel. But wonder what took so long to get Glambert here -- he's a born-to-be "Gleek."
