A fun night out turned into anything but for former 'American Idol' contestant Adam Lambert. The singer, who announced the official release date for his highly anticipated sophomore album 'Trespassing' last week, was arrested in Finland after an fight with his boyfriend, Sauli Koskinen, turned violent.

Lambert, who was in Helsinki to spend Christmas with Finish-native Sauli, was arrested along with his boyfriend after the two began fighting inside popular club DTM (Don't Tell Mama). According to reports, the duo began quarreling in the backroom of the bar and were kicked out by management. The fighting didn't stop there, and the police were called after the brawl took a violent turn outside in the street.

Petri Juvonen, who is heading up the police investigation into the event, told the Hollywood Reporter that Lambert and Koskinen were arrested around 4 a.m. and face up to a total of four possible assault offenses.

Joining Lambert and Koskinen during their violent night out was Sofia Ruusila, an ex-Miss Helsinki. After the events, she told a Finish entertainment show that she'd tried to break up the fight between the couple, but was accidentally hit by Adam in the process!

Adam and Sauli were released Thursday afternoon, and seem to be working on mending their rift. Sauli later tried to put the entire event in perspective after his arrest by blogging afterward: "Celebrities are people too and fame is not easy. Love is not always easy either, but it's forever."

Update: Adam just tweeted his take on last night's events: "Jetlag+Vodka=blackout. Us÷blackout=irrational confusion. jail+guilt+press=lesson learned. Sauli+Adam+hangover burgers= laughing bout it. :)"

Glad to see those see the guys were able to work through the drama!

boys will be boys my butt...Just because they are both men does not make it any less intimate partner violence (AKA...domestic violence). This would not be ok if the fight had been with a girlfriend. Just saying.

I was a fan of him on Idol. I didn't care that he was gay. Something changed though as he felt he needed to push that gay persona. Who cares who he is sleeping with and what he does in his private time...too bad HE didn't take that part seriously.

What a waste! Great talent. Outrageous poor choices musically and personally wreaking what should be stellar career. Was amazing on American Idol. Sure went downhill fast after his rise to fame.

It is funny how people are interpreting Gay men as violent, did not have a male role model growing up in the household, a dominant mother, and etc. Now, let's turn this around and replace Gay Men to Heterosexual Men who are the definition that you had described Gay men. The Only difference may be sexual partner and I cannot say that completely for all heterosexual men; there are some heterosexual men that are on the download.

Referring to the article, Adam Lambert needs to get his act together, quickly. His name has been added to Four Lists in Hollywood and the Music Industry: A. Abuser B. Chemical Intolerance C. In Denial of his behavior being serious and D. he will repeat this cycle again...A Repeater or Cycler.

Adam is now on the Hollywood Lists of as one of the Bad Bad "Violent & Abusive" Men/Boy's Club (negative) and he will never have his name removed from this list in America's Hollywood Bad Bad "Violent & Abuse" Men/Boy's Club. Not good things to claim or to have a label stick to his head for life. There is no justification to place your fists or hands upon another person's body out of angry, use of legal or illegal alter-minding changing chemicals or one cannot control oneself to prevent striking outward. Therefore, Adam needs to address this matter as quickly as he can to learn steps of prevention, tolerance, and resolutions or he may see his home as the State Jail or Prison.
