This is the problem with AI and the whole "reality to stardom" schtick.
Performers cut their teeth and carve out an identity by busting their ass. By the time they make it, they know who they are.
These AI kids, win or don't win, have spent what-8 weeks-crafting a persona and then the company that owns them tells them what to do. It's a cluster@#$. Tasia doesn't have a work ethic because she never had to have one. Singing on a reality show for 10 weeks is not hard comparing to a lifetime of struggle.
They usually end up sh@#ting the bed when left on their own. No chops for the industry that you learn when you work your way up.
So they end up making a porn or going on celebrity rehab.

"Adam has said numerous times he has intentions of doing theatre again, but is concentrating on his music career."
