Wade Cota American Idol
Wade auditioned in Los Angeles. He sang “Blame it On Me” by George Ezra. Judge Lionel Richie was so impressed by Wade’s performance and he told him that he was glad he brought out his “character”. Katy Perry on the other side said that Wade had one of the most unique voices she had ever heard, while Luke compared him to legend Johnny Cash!
In an interview with Billboard, Wade said that he had previously auditioned for American Idol in 2010 after he graduated from high school but did not make it.
“I stood in a long line. There were thousands of people there. I was told no. I was heartbroken because I’d driven with my aunt and uncle and with my girlfriend at the time all the way to San Diego. I didn’t want to do anything cool afterward because I was so bummed. But I’m here now and I’m not going to stop.”
Wade Cota The Voice
Wade had auditioned for The Voice and made to the judges but the slots filled up before he could audition. Wade, however, says he is grateful that he didn’t make it as the same year American Idol came back as it had taken a break.
“When they took a year off, I thought I missed my chance. So I tried out for The Voice and I made it to the judges, but all the slots got filled up before I could even audition. I’m so happy that it did not work out, because when I saw that American Idol was starting up again and I saw the talent that year and I thought, ‘That’s what I’m going to do. That’s the one. I’m not going to get discouraged.’ I never would have imagined myself getting this far, but here I am, top 14, and I’m performing for America’s live vote and that’s crazy because I grew up watching and voting with my family and screaming at the TV. It’s magic. American Idol creates superstars and no other show can say that.”
