Seattle Times ^

Clay Aiken, 29, is confirming what many people thought: He's gay. The cover of the latest People magazine shows Aiken holding his infant son, Parker Foster Aiken, with the headline: "Yes, I'm Gay." The cover also has the quote: "I cannot raise a child to lie or hide things." Magazine officials said there is an interview with Aiken and confirmed he was on the cover but refused to release the article until today. The baby's mother is Aiken's friend and record producer Jaymes Foster. Aiken, who gained fame as the runner-up on "American Idol" in 2003, rarely addressed the frequent rumors about his sexuality. Two years ago, he said: "I don't really feel like I have anybody to answer to but myself and God and the people I love."
