Frustrated by endless busy signals, American Idol's die-hard fans are voting a second time -- with their wallets. And this time the winner is runner-up Clay Aiken ........ As of June 4, Aiken was outselling Studdard FOUR TO ONE and selling twice as many singles as last year's winner, Kelly Clarkson, did during the same period.

I'm curious to know what Clay's sales are lately. Although this is a new article, it refers to sales two weeks ago.

I think Andy Warhol was wrong. Everyone won't be famous for just 15 minutes, its more like one tv season.
