Yes, He Is Gay- Clay Aiken Comes Out.

Perez Hilton and People Magazine ^

[rintense]

It's official. Clay Aiken has come out of the closet.

[PLMerite]

Nobody in that picture should be pointing at anyone else and laughing.

[Verbosus]

Quote: <
People should lay off of him. He keeps to himself. He’s not a loud mouth like Elton John or George Michaels. He’s not bothering anybody.

His spiritual music is fantastic also. I've never heard a better version of "Mary Did You Know"

[Stoat]

Nobody in that picture should be pointing at anyone else and laughing.

Agreed.  It's an illustration of homosexual denial.....much like the denial that "Mr. " Aiken inflicted upon weary entertainment consumers.

[SeekAndFind]

Well, what took him so long ?

Why the earlier denial ?

[Clintonfatigued]

Imagine my surprise!

On another note, most gay fathers stay in the closet for their children’s sake. I don’t see how this decision helps. Does the child, whatever his age, need to know that his father runs up his credit card on call boys while on the road?

[Tijeras_Slim]

I can now face the coming financial apocalypse with a calm and steady heart.

“People should lay off of him.

What about his baby growing up in Hell on Earth? Or the damage to society and the family?

[Sue Perkick]

Don’t think so. I miss her.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

Clay is the effeminate KD...and KD is the masculine Clay...so maybe they should plan duets. Together. At like the same time...

[PennsylvaniaMom]

(Snorts)...that is funny.

Vanderbilt jeans?

[Drew68]

I know most freepers will disagree with me, but guys like him demonstrate that at least SOME people are born gay

I agree with you. I went to elementary school with a kid who by the third grade, we all knew he was "different." He walked with a prance in his step, lisped when he talked and only played dolls with the girls. When he showed up at the 10 year high school reunion with his "partner" nobody was shocked.

And then there are the butch lesbians with husky, baritone voices and 5 o'clock shadows...

[fieldmarshaldj]

How will I ever stand the strain ? Goodbye, cruel world !

[Phantom Lord]

Ok, outside of misery Clay’s singing has unleashed upon the planet, how has he damaged society?

[fieldmarshaldj]

You went to school with Keith Olbermann ?

[billhilly]

I miss her too. She was one of the best on FR. Unfortunately, strong personalities seem to be a threat here sometimes.

[Phantom Lord]

I have no doubt that some people are born gay. And there is no doubt that some switch teams later in life for a variety of reasons.

Its none of my business, nor do I care one bit what any consenting adults do in private. Have at it and enjoy yourself.

But private is where it belongs.

[Billthedrill]

"Oh, I think so..."

[ViLaLuz]

“Ok, outside of misery Clay’s singing has unleashed upon the planet, how has he damaged society?”

He’s done his part to further damage the foundations of society by giving his baby an extremely bad start in life from which the little one may not recover, giving impressionable young minds that the mental illness he’s suffering is normal and something to be celebrated and emulated, which leads to further breakdown and decay to marriage, parenthood and the health of society at large. Aiken and the baby’s mother are practicing no better than animal husbandry a la Michael Jackson.

If he’d laid low and done this quietly, no one would have known to call him on this. But he’s decided to promote this abomination on the covers of numerous celebrity rags around the world.

Pray for Clay Aiken and his baby, and for the woman that he bred with. We haven’t heard the last of this scandal. Wait until that poor child grows up.

[BfloGuy]

Whoa! No one saw that coming.

[Clemenza]

In honor of Clay's "coming out", I think that we should do as Rush would and play Klaus Nomi in his honor:

Klaus Nomi: You Don't Own Me
