Title: Clay is gay: Former 'Idol' runner-up Aiken comes out of the closet
Post by: Sportsdude on Sep 24 08 10:45
Omg, I like sooo did not see this coming. lol

Clay Aiken appears on the cover of the latest People magazine holding his infant son, Parker Foster Aiken, with the headline: "Yes, I'm Gay."   The 29-year-old former "American Idol" runner-up, multiplatinum recording artist and Broadway star credits his son, conceived by in-vitro fertilization with friend and producer Jaymes Foster, with making him realize that he could no longer hide his homosexuality from the world. [/p]  "It was the first decision I made as a father," Aiken told the magazine, which arrives on newsstands Friday. "I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn't raised that way, and I'm not going to raise a child to do that."

Good he is honest with himself.

  Bad he is a pop singer with weak songs (just my opinion).

  Also, bad people actually care enough about his sexuality to buy a copy of the magazine that talks about it. Who cares?

LOL!

I meant, bad, people in general actually care enough about it. Not so much People magazine.

  Yeah, ok, me sucks at English!

lol.

It is just more celebrity gossip...

  Like Spears breakdown on drugs, do people care about this? They must, because whether you want to or not, you are probably going to hear about it one way or another.

I remember when Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers came out of the closet and some people made such a big deal out of it. I could care less.

Jeez, give him a bass guitar and watch him kick some a*s already!!!

It was bugging me last night Michel, because I knew it was not Aikman. It is Troy Mclure! Voice from the late Phil Hartman.

Am not surprised - there was a rumour that he was gay for the longest time. I wouldn't be surprise either if Ryan Seacrest came out.

I can't even remember his songs..... he was THAT forgettable. Actually apart from Kelly Clarkson, all the American Idols were forgettable.

Any Idol show is forgettable. I see better singers at Kareoke night at the local pub. And these are some drunk idiots!

  purelife, maybe you can sing better!?!! I only heard him on Sirius Faction yesterday. The DJ played a minute of him because he didn't know who he was either. So he played him, then made fun of him laughing hystericaly for a half hour.

The only time I heard of Kelly Clarkson was when the 40 year old virgin was getting waxed.
