Adam Lambert is already on the rebound!

Three days after Usmagazine.com reported that the American Idol runner-up, 27, split from interior designer boyfriend Drake LaBry, 24, he told Us he's "cool" being single.

In fact, when his debut album, For Your Entertainment, comes out on Nov. 23, he plans to promote not only his music, but also himself.

"I will date on tour," Lambert told Us at the 2012 premiere in L.A. Tuesday. 

The singer -- who came out to the public in Rolling Stone this past June -- told Us he is looking for someone who is "intelligent" and has "creativity and compassion."

Still, he has no ill will for his ex, whom he still says is a "very good friend" after their mutual decision to end the relationship.

"I don't really feel like there were any mistakes made," he told Us. "I feel like things evolved. Sometimes you're on the same page with somebody, and sometimes you have to get off that page and on to another one."

A source told Us that the split was all to do with timing.

Look back at photos of Lambert at the American Idol finale

"Adam is crazy busy right now getting the album done and squeezing in rehearsals," the source told Us. "They both felt this moment is too important for Adam to focus on anything else but getting this album out and having it be a huge hit."

    We don't know anything about Adam & Drake really & it's actually none of our business. We don't know the whole story & we never will...Again not our business...Why does a break-up have to be turned into Adam's fame going to his head. Haven't you ever had an amicable break-up? Sometimes things just don't work out. I am a giant Adam lover & wish him nothing but sucess & happiness.

    I'm guessing that the main real reason he dumped Drake is because he wants someone with a higher profile. That's what usually happens to people turned celebrities. Nevertheless, good luck to Adam and his career. He's more popular than Kris, anyway.

    Drake was adorable. That photo of them is horrible though. They're both so sweet and gorgeous but that shot is just awkward paparazzi at their best.
