Is she for real? Adam Lambert has made it very clear that he'd rather keep people speculating about his sexuality than come right out and state his preference. But apparently American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi didn't get that memo.

On this morning's The View on ABC, Kara told millions of viewers…

"I don't think that Adam was ever in [the closet]. So I think he was always openly out," said the judge. "I think he was. I mean, you know from what I've seen in various forms of things, I do. I never thought he wasn't."

Meanwhile, Barbara Walters said that Ryan Seacrest reported that Adam plans to make an announcement about his sexual preference shortly.

Do you think this was a big faux pas for Kara? Would you be mad if you were Adam?
