![]() ![]() ![]() She was voted off because she was not the best voice on the show.” “Someone needs to be real here,” he wrote on the Huffington Post. “Ada Vox wasn’t voted off because she is a drag queen and she wasn’t voted off because Adam Sanders (her alter ego) is a gay man. Meanwhile, former American Idol winner Clay Aiken has caused controversy by saying that he feels she was voted off not because of her identity but because wasn’t the best singer. My stage persona, as with many other artists in the industry today, is an alter-ego.” “I am a singer who just happens to do drag,” she says. “People ask me all the time about RuPaul’s Drag Race, and I’m not that type of a drag queen, I’m a singer that happens to do drag, I don’t have a full on persona and don’t want to perform in clubs for the rest of my life. But she has ruled out appearing on RuPual’s Drag Race. The confidence has a lot to do with it - I’m so comfortable onstage and I finally feel like I’m living my best life when I’m singing and doing what I love, whether it’s as Adam or Ada, it just so happens that Ada brought me this opportunity.”Īda is now intent on pursing a music career and hopes to make it big. I’ve worked to polish myself as an entertainer and as a vocalist,” she said. “Between season 12 and now, I created Ada and found myself as this thing that’s larger than life, and in that I found so much confidence when I was onstage that it was just absolutely unreal to think I’d never found that before. “I’ve been performing on stages for 11 years now. Speaking to Out magazine recently Ada says that she has finally found the confidence to be a strong performer. Even though she didn’t win, her amazing vocals and inspirational story made their marks on viewers hearts.Īlthough every song she tackled was a show stopper, the one that has pulled at our heartstrings most was her cover of Radiohead’s Creep.

Throughout all the negativity I have built myself a new person, a stronger person. Maybe I’m not worth fixing or having another r try. That was really when I was at my worst thinking, ‘Maybe I shouldn’t be here’. He added: “And in doing that I hurt myself even more. I was contemplating lots of things that I shouldn’t have and I just kind of disappeared from the world for a while.” It was killing me inside as much as people were telling me to kill myself. “They said that I shouldn’t be here who i am. “I was getting messages on social media.people attacked my weight, my sexuality, that I was horrible, that I sucked,” he recalled in the latest season of AI that has just concluded on Amazon. However, that didn’t stop the bullies from trolling him about his weight and sexuality. Sadly for him, that was the end of his journey. Back in 2013, 19-year-old Adam Sanders tried his luck at American Idol and made it through to the final 50. ![]()
