Adore Delano, right from his childhood, had an outgoing bent of mind and was remarkably gregarious in his bearings. Part of his gregariousness was because of his Mexican-American background with a smattering of ‘Native American’ and ‘Germanic’ lineage. He formed a punk rock band ‘Teenage Rampage’ while he was still in secondary school.
Adore Delano’s most opportune break came in 2008, when he qualified for the 7th season of the ‘American Idol’. He had made an attempt to quality for the ‘American Idol’, in 2007, but was turned down by the panel because of his unkempt appearance. He finished in the top sixteen and made it to the semi-finals trying to perfect on ‘Tainted Love’ originally sung by Gloria Jones.
Though he was ultimately eliminated, the break in the ‘American Idol’ kick-started his professional career. He created numerous burlesques and spoofs following his remarkable success in ‘American Idol’ which he uploaded on YouTube under his drag queen alter-egos ‘Adore Delano’ and ‘Angel Baby. Just a year after in 2009, she recorded and commercially released footage for a song titled ‘24/7’ that also featured his sister Diamonique.
The brilliant performance of Raven, one of the notable contestants of RuPaul’s Drag Race in a West Hollywood nightclub (Micky), spurred Adore to compete in an upcoming drag queen competition endorsed by the club. Fortunately for him, he was adjudged the winner in the meet and this triumph stimulated him to perform in several musical soirees and concerts in California, his home state. He also strutted on the ramp as a model in Los Angeles Fashion Week in the year 2013.
Adore Delano has filed a suit against PEG (Producer Entertainment Group), for allegedly misappropriating majority of the earnings from his two albums as well as proceeds from his public performances. He is purported to have earned about $2.5million from 2014, till the time he filed the lawsuit out of which he only received $300,000.00.
Adore Delano was born on September 29, 1989, in Azusa, California. He is extremely down-to-earth and candid in his personal life and detests putting on airs. His acolytes are aware of his non-binary status and he has gone on record by iterating to ‘Dragaholic’ (a website dedicated to drag queens) that ‘Everyone thought I was a girl back then.’ ‘I lived my life as a girl from fourteen to almost seventeen years old ….with piercings and everything’. His homosexual streaks made him warm up to his mother during his adolescence. He lost his father in 2016, and his first love deserted him but he sports a cheerful countenance. His current heartthrob is Christian Francuski, an Australian
