Thx! 👍
THANK YOU
TYSM
this actually helped
Thank youuuuuuuu❤️❤️
What were they thinking? Amber Riley is a vocal powerhouse. Best voice on Glee. Period.
AxjionAlesandres I also LOVE Kevin McHale
Yeah... Also Michele... Mercedes and Rachel has a amazing vocal range..
Umm Naya was better..
@Gabriel Naya and Amber both sound better than her
yea after Lea Michele
Amber Riley and Naya Rivera???? American Idol you've sure messed up BIG time with those too.
emmet what,
Jennifer Hudson is the one. Girlfriend is an Oscar & Grammy winner!
Never heard of either of them.
@@hedunlap They're from Glee.
Yeah and they had some of the strongest voices
Y’all don messed up A A ron!
I’m just here for Naya Rivera and Amber Riley ....
my dear Santana Lopez and Mercedes Jones 🖤🖤🖤🖤
they are my favorite forever... and Santana... R.I.P my Naya...
same here I miss them
Same☺🖤
Rip my Queen
Here for Chris Daughtry and he wasn’t even on here. 👎🏽
Funny thing is the majority of the people who win don’t even have a successful career
True
That's true
Ya the people who don’t win are more successful like Adam Lambert or jordyn sparks
The only successful winner is Kelly
@WHATS VIRAL? did they win???
Ironically Amber and Naya were one of the strongest voices on Glee, also R.I.P Naya Rivera.
American idol Judge "Let's see how many stars from a future TV show name Glee we can reject"
Evidently, half the cast.
And what makes it even sadder is that glee was on the same channel as American idol
logan castleman sadder still glee was a better show for music in general.
To be fair Glee also rejected an American Idol runner up (who absolutely should have won) before he went on to audition for American Idol, Adam Lambert. Although that rejection wasn't so much a 'you're not good enough for it', but more of a, 'you can't pull off 16 convincingly at 26 (even though Cory Monteith was the same age, he just had more of a baby face) and you probably aren't quite right for the part'. I definitely can't imagine Adam Lambert as dopey and as 'out there' as white bread jock Finn Hudson. Clearly no hard feelings though since Adam did a guest stint in season 5.
Kirsti Swanson LMAO IKR
I'm a simple kinda gal...I see Amber Riley in the thumbnail, I click
Me too. And Naya. Glee is awesome
Me too
Me three. Also, the judges on American Idol ARE idiots.
sameee
Casey Bea and then I heard naya
Naya and amber were the 2 strongest voices on glee😂
and that's a fact
Chris and Lea could kick ass when they needed to tho
@@scintillatingsinger9585 but amber and naya were extremely underrated
Amber Riley, Lea Michele & Alex Newell IMO. But make no mistake... Naya, Darren & Chris gave what needed to be gave. And Charice (now Jake) of course.
No way. Amber and Lea for sure.
The people at American Idol were probably watching Glee and saying to theirselves we totally screwed up by not having Amber & Naya on the show!
Nicole Stone correction *themselves
To be fair American Idol looks more at finding pop stars, they're both very talented but they're not pop stars
Naya could do pop
She could do pop she did several times in Glee, she's just not a pop star. It's not really a bad thing it just means she lacks mass appeal. Look at Katy Perry awful singer perfect pop star, Britney Spears awful singer ... pop star
Amber maybe, but she's not really setting the world on fire on the music charts. She's more suited to singing on stage and maybe some tv. Naya, I'm sure they don't care about rejecting. Woman has gone off the deep end and doesn't really have the career to back up her ego.
That is why people should never give up their dream
Amber Riley is such a power house she gives me chills.
Amber Riley was also a judge on a talent show in the uk called let it shine, yet another full circle from rejection to mentoring
And thats why Amber Riley won Masked Singer 2022, Season 8 (USA). Talented
I love Amber Riley, Naya Rivera & Jordin Sparks
Naya Rivera 💅
Amber has amazing belting skills. She can belt up to a C6 and it’s not a scream either. Kind of like Sohyang.
Nah, she's a total screamer.
hedunlap she’s really not Jennifer Hudson is screaming boo
@@noclase 2 years late😬.. but neither of them scream. they both belt😗
C6 mixed voice for me
Why was Jordin Sparks there and not Tori Kelly. Jordin Sparks ended up wining the show so it wasn't really a complete rejection if she was able to get back on the show and then win it in the end, while singers like Tori Kelly, Jennifer Hudson, Todrick Hall, and Scott Hoying auditioned and didn't make it through the whole competition but ended up successful.
Tori, Jennifer, and Todrick made it on the show and were voted off, but Scott didn't even get on the show so he was rejected.
And bebe rexa
Err I thought Jennifer made top 8?
Yes you are so right
My babe Amber Riley she truly deserves all the success she's getting and more to come!.
I never knew about Colbie Calliat? Awesome, love her songs.
Tori Kelly? Hello? 😱
We only included singers who didn't pass the audition round! Tori Kelly made it to the top 48 :)
then how are Jordin Sparks and Haley reinhart on here?
According to what I watched Jordan was rejected in one city but accepted in another.
Came here to say this
Scott Hoying?
It’s interesting how artists like Hilary Scott and Colbie Calliat are more successful than the recent winners of American Idol
So so true
Sees Amber. Clicks video! Love her!
WOW...Amber Riley auditioned 2nd season?! So, anyone hear from Ruben & Clay lately?!
Clay has done about 10 times better than Ruben,
OMG I'm drying!!!!
Last I heard, Clay and his husband had had a kid, And Rueben had a gospel Albums..ages ago 😭😂
@candy cane They didn't adopt a kid....
@candy cane what is wrong with you?
Amber Riley had the best and strongest voice on Glee, should have got more of her and less of the other one.
JellyBabie1984 Is the other one Lea? If so, I agree.
Guys Glee was basically the life story of Rachel Barry. Her friends and rivals were apart of that life so they were included for the ride. She was the protagonist. It was called Glee to sound more inclusive. That's just my takeaway. I don't know if I would have been that excited to jump on the Rachel Barry Show bandwagon.
Silently throwing shade at Rachel
I love both of them though lol. Lea and Amber are both powerful.
*Coughs on lea michele*
American Idol: Screwring up since 2000
2002
Samuel Shoemaker we'll I stand corrected.... but still....
2002. And not fully screwing up, let's remember the ones that are a part of history now :) Kelly, Carrie, Colton, Chris...
I saw Amber perform in the Glee tour in the UK. I was so intently listening to her - I didn't realise at first I was in floods of tears because she was so amazing
Amber's so phenomenal. You can't keep a great talent down.
I love Amber Riley and her strong adaptability to slay at what she does best
American Idol, like every other reality singing competition show, isn't about talent; it's about ratings. The producers don't care if your a great singer unless you look a certain way and can give them sales or ratings. Jordan Sparks auditioned multiple times then went on to win. Hey vocals didn't improve, she just created a buzz for herself by competing in other competitions.
Susan Boyle wasn't good looking but finished #2 on the show she was on.
I don’t wanna see anybody saying that Amber Riley didn’t deserve #1 because she is just phenomenal I have no words
Amber is insanely talented!!! I love her 😍😍
The biggest star that AI rejected was Bruno Mars. He auditioned in AI season 3 and got a NO at age 18. Well look at him now.😂😂😂
He probably got paid to increase the shows ratings. Winning a tv show contest statistically isnt that good for your career.
Kelly Clarkson won the first season of American Idol and her career is going strong. She has her own talk show, has put out tons of music, has been on tour (I've seen her live). She will be relevant for years to come.
Nope. That would be Jennifer Hudson. TV, STAGE, and FILM. 5 Grammy Awards, 1 Golden Globe, and 1 Academy Award (OSCAR). And she is still, today, one of the most popular, respected, gifted, requested, talents in the world. Still Relevant.
@@patricelockertanthony7630 Does she sell out stadiums and arenas? Have multiple platinum singles and albums? JHud is very much relevant but not on Bruno's level and even JHud knows that.😏
I agree with #1. A girl that can hit an almost impossible C6 (Soprano High C) in Chest voice, AND HOLD IT 6 SECONDS???!!!!!!!! American Idol was super foolish
Haley Reinhart being featured just made my day she is so amazing!
You forgot about Jennifer Hudson, she got eliminated by the audience.
It was because the area she was from had a storm that tore down telephone polls. Nobody could call in and vote
Let's not forgot Simon did not think she was a good singer.But he later apologized.
Madeline and that was the last time I watched American Idol!!!
They don't vote who to eliminate but who to stay. If they voted who they liked least would get different results.
@candy cane Singing competition not a beauty pageant.
Scott Hoying?? 1/5 of Pentatonix and 1/2 of Superfruit. 3 time Grammy award winning noodle. Their should have been an honourable mentions section with this list.
Little Miss Sunshine exactly what I was thinking
*EXACTLY*
Yes
Lucy Preece i
I pity the fools who rejected these superstars.
Amber gives me chills when she sings, unbelievable voice!!
Naya Rivera was, probably, my favorite voice from GLEE. Amber was terrific as well. And Noah Guthrie.
Naya will forever me my favourite rip
I love MsMojo vids as much as I love Alex & Sierra (that means I love MsMojo alot
Amber my queen
I love her & Naya
You know for some of these singers getting rejected was the was best thing for their careers
Only people I knew was Jordin Sparks, Naya Rivera, and Amber Riley
@candy cane First of all make a whole complete sentence that makes sense like you forget "they're black like you" and learn to spell "racist"then you can end it with the lol like it's a joke. Second that's stereotyping us black people because we know more about Dianna Ross than Blake Shelton. As a person of color who listen to all genre of music from Alternative to R&B I find this offensive so before u comment on something actually think about what you say and take it into consideration. Third, you have a great day and I hope God blesses you and gives you the education you need to use common sense. Have a great day and stay blessed.
Every time I see Naya in a video makes me cry 😔
Rest in peace beauty, you deserve the best.
I love when they make it in their careers. I’m proud of them. 👍🏽
How the fuck could they reject Amber Riley?
Aren't they forgetting Jennifer Hudson? Her story is motivational. She did not win AO but won an Oscar before ever winning a Grammy.
WOW! Hilary?!!!
I've loved Lady A for YEARS and I never knew you'd wandered down the dark path of American Idol. You're amazing, girl
I love stories like this! It just goes to show that just become someone rejects u, it doesn’t mean u are a reject! Keep trying and working hard u til someone says yes! Perseverance and constantly honing ur craft is key!!!!!
All blessings in disguise American Idol's platform is set for the more mainstream most of the artists mentioned in this list are phenomenal if not extremely unique in each and every way
HOW THE FUCK IS JENNIFER HUDSON NOT ON THIS LIST?
Because she was a finalist, not a reject. These people didn't make it past the semifinals so never competed on the show. J-Hud did (thanks to the Wild Card) and placed 7th.
musicaltheatergeek79
umm.. jordin won😂
Roma 58 so true.
All I want for Christmas is a couple more duets with Amber Riley and Naya Rivera the way they did on Glee. River Deep Mountain high still gives me goosebumps when I watch it.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
American idol is quaking after seeing how much kane had grew in music
I would of though tori Kelly would be top of the list. But amber is amazing too!
Jonathon Fox ambers voice is stronger imo but I’m a theatre nerd so of course I like her more
but tori is more melodious and music=melody! also tori can go strong! hell strong
they were right to reject tori. She was so young and here voice wasn't nearly what it is today. She grew up and became a star when she was ready to be ;)
Jonathon Fox o
i get chills every time amber riley sings. one of the most talented vocalists ive ever heard. wow. absolutely amazing, totally deserved the top spot.
You forgot Mitch and Scott from Pentatonix.
Miranda Zoch no they didnt
Amber Riley is a complete powerhouse!!
OMG I DIDNT KNOW NAYA WAS IN FRESH PRINCE
And 'Family Matters'
OMG i literally went and saw Alex and Sierra live such a long time ago!!
Adore Amber Riley! She’s total STAR! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
How dare they reject Amber Riley
I want to know what the judges think about not giving Naya and Amber a chance now hmmmm
colbie caillat is a legend. her voice is TIMELESS!!!! her songs even up to this day sound so relevant!
Some aspiring artists take the word of American Idol judges as gold. This video proves that they don’t always know what they’re talking about, nor make the best decisions as far as who makes it on the show and who doesn’t. You can rest assured that some mediocre singer made it onto the show in place of each one of these featured artists.
Can somebody tell me a good reason why Tori Kelly is not on this list?
Darwin G
They will make another list and she will be #1 😗
We only included singers who didn't pass the audition round! Tori Kelly made it to the top 48 :)
MsMojo oh I get it now. Thank you
+MsMojo Tori was rejected like twice
MsMojo by that logic you shouldn't have included Jordin, she WON the show
I only knew the two girls from Glee and Colbie Caillat. Never heard of the rest.
This is actually a lesson in life.NEVER GIVE UP AND YOUR DREAMS ARE VALID
Never give up! Keep moving
The problems with being a singer is that they are a dime a dozen. You just need that one hit. Heck there are plenty of singers who literally can't sing, but they got the "look", and was in the right place at the right time. Point is, never give up. One day it might pay off.
Amber and Naya💖 who else went to one of their glee duets after this💖
Awesome.
Omg I love those country artists soooo much I listen to them everyday!!!
apart from rivera and riley i don't have any idea of who the others are
cindy soldout Not even Hillary Scott, from Lady Antebellum?
Glee ❤️❤️
You don't even know Sparks and Colbie? You lived under a rock or is a 11yo child?
Jordin Sparks ?
then you live in a tupper!
Does anyone else remember when Adore Delano was on American idol. I'm pretty sure she got past the judges though
Ghost Face I think Adore lost in the Final 🤔
That was Adam Lambert
Adore competed as Danny Noriega then!
Ghost Face Danny Noriega was never cut by the judges, he was voted off in the Last Round of semifinals, same with Todrick Hall 2 years later
Just proves talent alone doesn’t guarantee success. Determination, growing with rejection and a whole lot of luck makes many artists who they ultimately become. Never give up, never give up and never give in.
Beautiful voices, you can't rejected at all 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Yeah and I bet American Idol was kicking themselves for rejecting all these people
WHAT??? American Idol rejected Colbie Caillat and Hilary Scott??? That's their loss
This make me feel better as I was just rejected from a job I always wanted
this was very interesting to watch
Amber Riley is amazing. I love her!
R.I.P. Naya Rivera. 🥺
VIVA RIVERA AND RILEY , I LOVE THEM SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!
I FEEL O MUCH BETTER THAT SOME OF MY FAVORITE ARTISTS HAVE FAILED! IT GIVES ME HOPE AND INSPIRATION:)
Man, there is a bunch of country singers on the list
Lilly and Lolly seem American Idol doesn't care for country music ...
There has been plenty of country singers on the show. Carrie Underwood, Scottie McCreery, Kellie Pickler, Lauren Alaina, Kree Harrison, Kristy Lee Cook, Diana Degarmo, Skylar Laine...
WizardPandora Carrie Underwood
I love Carrie, but Kelly Clarkson's the highest selling Idol winner. Carrie is #2.
Richard Taylor yeah but overall Carrie is the most successful contestant ever on American Idol
American idol is JUST A PLATFORM!!!! These people are examples that you can still make it without the show. Some of the best singers they have sent home. They sent Jennifer Hudson home!!! Like wtf
Thanks
I only knew Jordan Sparks, Amber, and Naya I love them all so much
Naya Rivera and Amber Riley popularly known as Santana Lopez and Mercedes Jones!😍😘
I ❤ Haley Reinhart!!
Marren Morris and Zedds collab "The Middle" gave her a big boost
I just love Amber Riley what a talent!
FUCKING YES MOJO KNOWS WHAT THEYRE DOING ! SO GLAD YOU PUT AMBER AS #1 BSNSNSJSNDJBI LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE 💞💞😭
Uh you’re description says “Saya Rivera”
So happy seeing “American idol 2002- present”
this is bazaar. How could they miss these wonderful talents?
I loved Hailey Reinhart’s voice... I really wish she’d come out with some more music. She’s one of my favorites.
Amber Riley. Star. Period. Good choice for no 1
I loved Glee. My favorite Naya cover on Glee was Valerie. The tone of her voice was perfect in that cover. My favorite Amber Glee performance was from the concert DVD when she sings Ain’t No Way. Almost every Glee member was crazy talented in their own right.
Is any one else EXTREMELY satisfied by the video being exactly 10 minutes?
