Next year marks 50 years since Stonewall in New York City. Queerty’s Pride 50 celebrates the people and movements we are particularly proud of this season — the amazing people who are continuing the progress of a half-century of Pride.

Among this year’s honorees is the incomparable Ada Vox, whose talents and nerve carried her through to the top 10 of American Idol, inspiring us along the way.
