The video includes:
- Jennifer Hudson's AI audition
- An Idol performance by the incredible Jessica Sanchez (she's huge
in the Phillipines and Mexico and is a multimillionaire).
- One Direction (they were runners-up on season 7 of X-Factor UK);
- Adam Lambert singing Born To Be Wild on American Idol
- "Judges House" performance by Fifth Harmony, the girl band that came
in 3rd in Season 2 of X-Factor USA but went on to be global stars
(with billions of YouTube views)... and then member Ally Brooke
became a star in her own right as a solo act.

So ... what other losers are successful that came out of these shows?
The first ones that comes to mind for me offhand are Clay Aiken and
Kelly Pickler .

Losers from AI often do better than winners from The Voice. Of course, some of the
Idol "losers" here have done much better than the winners in their seasons. The
ticket-buying public haven't always agreed with Idol voters about all that
winner/loser stuff.
BTW, Queen & Adam have been busy expanding their European tour plans for next summer.
Along with other stops, they will be playing 10 performances in London's O2 arena.
That amounts to a residency in a venue that can seat 20,000 people.

It's kind of funny. How many final, "farewell tours" has Queen had
now? The money must be too good for them to stop.
I wonder if Mickey D's is still holding Adam's job for him?
