Perseverance, thy name is Adam Sanders – or Ada Vox, as he is better known.  

Ada, the Drag Queen who stole the hearts of millions on season 16 of ‘American Idol,’ has revealed while auditioning this time around that he had auditioned once before. We had always assumed that it is the femininity and confidence of Ada that propelled him onto Top 10 this time around. After all, these are the only two auditions that were televised.  

However, as it turns out, Ada has auditioned THIRTEEN times before she finally made it to the coveted top 10 spot. “This is actually my thirteenth time auditioning for the show. It is only the second time that I have actually made it on to the show,” he tells Meaww.
