(Day in Rock) What half way through the week and no salacious Clay Aiken stories? Yes they are getting as old hat and boring as "Pete Doherty Arrested Again" headlines but celebrity terrorist site Faded Youth has an interesting story about Claymate Hysteria over the recent gay accusations. Some Clay fans see Gay Aiken stories as a big conspiracy. Faded Youth reports, "working feverishly in efforts to disprove or derail any and all talk of the scandalous allegations, insistent that the stories must be the conspiratorial work of gay extremists or others. Taking notes from Al-Qaeda, scandal talk is above top secret and forbidden on the Claymate message boards, instead hidden away in private forums where they plot retaliation in their ongoing Clay jihad. The more resourceful Claymates have called for boycotts of media reporting the story), and the less resourceful have simply resorted to spamming sites that dare to reference the story. Some of their more hilariously bizarre efforts are their C.S.I. type examinations of the infamous webcam, while one of the more devious efforts is a story leaked to the media of a supposed conspiracy to frame Aiken by impersonator Coti Collins."
They also report that John Paulus, the man that claimed a gay tryst with Aiken, has launched his own blog. Among the most interesting things on Paulus' site is a story by Q-Notes that reports "To the gay community of Charlotte - many of whom knew Aiken during his time spent at UNCC - the revelation comes as no surprise." Click the full story and Faded Youth will hook you up with all the links, but better act fast before the men in black shut down that site! Clay isn't gay according to the Aiken camp.

It's none of my business and I don't care. I adore him and love his voice.

Proud Member of PWTCAIS (People Who Think Clay Aiken Is Straight) --- The thing is, he'd have a difficult time getting people to accept the messages in the songs he sings (wooing a girl) if if comes out.

Is he intact (uncircumcised/uncut)?
Posted by Linda:
Question: What has Clay Aiken's sexual orientation got to do with his music? They guy is a wonderful singer and that's all that matters, IMHO.

if Clay is gay or not, it's no of you guys is business. he is one of the greatest person in this whole world. he's caring, loving, adorable, sexy. he's a totale hottie! stop trying to live his life. let him breathe! for God sakes. you guys should get a hobby, that doesn't involve saying things and or treating people like dirt. put yourself in Clay place and see how it feels like to be called gay. he's a great person, that's why their are so many poeple who call him gay, cause their jealous and they have nothing better to do with their lives! pls get a real life and stop with these stupid, good for nothing rumours. Clay you go and show these people what you're made of by doing what you always do, sing, love and be yourself. i'm a Clay maniac and i Claymate and we stand proud to support, chear, love and believe in you no matter what. and i'm proud to say that. GO CLAY! we all love you

Leave Clay alone ! He aint gay ! Even if he was gay WHO CARES ! It would suck because he is sexy but i would never hate him for it ! Clay is doing the right thing by not responding to you people ! God you people make me sick ! Clay is one of the best people alive and you all treat him like crap !!!
Posted by Carol:
The only thing you got right here is that this is getting so OLD already! It's Clay, then it's Ace, then it's Tom, then it's Brad. Then it must be me and next YOU!!! This is BS and will all go away when that fabulous new CD comes out and everyone will have to acknowledge the great talent of Clay and be groveling at his feet. He's ignoring this and I say, BULLY FOR HIM. If he responded, he'd have to do it for the rest of his life. That slimebag who started all this is worse than pus that feeds on pond scum.

Good God, anyone with a brain & even half a minute of photoshop training could easily see how fake those "webcam stills" were .... how convenient that the torso is headless! LOL!! Clay, you go with your hot self & outsell 'em all like you always do!!!

this whole thing is getting to much attention. Its always has to be something with some one when will tabloidists learn to leave people alone? We need to quit giving these tabloids attention. Why do you think that his response is "no comment" its becasue he doesnt need to defend himself to his true fans. We all know what kind of man he can be. I feel like he doesnt need to explain something that didnt happen. Everyone knows they are not true and only the men in black read them. Do they really exist anyway.

hikingartist, Woo Hoo, you've gotten up to four letter words. I'm so impressed (NOT)!! BTW, did you say that you are 27 and in the eighth grade? Clay fans can get down in the mud too. I Love Clay Aiken and so do millions of other people. There's no point in arguing with you people because you have to possess intelligence to have an enlightened discussion so why don't you just get lost (lots of short words that I think you will understand)!
Posted by Susan:
You guys are either sick in the head or can't think up any new crap to spread around. Clay Aiken's name is used to get hits to your site, you pathetic bunch of losers!!!
Posted by TheAnitiGroucho:
I see Kelly the Drug-Addict Kunt fans are at it again. They love to diss other fanbases. I can't wait until Carrie Underwood over-takes Kelly for the best idol evah!!! I want to see what groucho/ketchup/nu2clay/chrissypeeinmypants has to say about that...
Posted by clayfanforlife:
Hey Marty, it's nice to know that a true Christian like you isn't going to wait for REAL proof, just believe the rumors. People like you give Christians a bad name. Why don't you just go join that ridiculous lawsuit...or are you already in on it? Clay has not lied, in fact most of his "perfect" image was created by his fans. I know his family and Clay is exactly what he does say he is, a caring person who does for those in need. Go get a life, Marty.
Posted by linda hendrix:
i think someone is pretty messed up if they think clay is gay. born again christians cannot be gay and christian. he choose to be a christian.
Posted by noyb:
Clay still has all of his fans, he has a new CD coming out. John Paulus can go crawl back to hole that he came out of, because his 10 minutes of fame is over.
Posted by D:
This isnt about deception or if Clay is gay or not-which he isn't. It's about some piece of filth wanting a career in porn (such a nobel career choice) and trying to take down the biggest name in the entertainment field today just to get what he wants. That is pretty sad that the piece of filth can't get a career on his own merits.
Posted by Sofie:
I Love him
Posted by Jeff:
After following some links, I find it rather telling that the only outlets that are giving this story legs are the gay gossip sites. Maybe the Claymates are on the right track.
Posted by Jeff:
So Clay has himself a psycho stalker, huh? Welcome to Superstardom Clay! You may need a few more bodyguards in future buddy, maybe fiddy can give you some tips.
Posted by RickC.Adams:
Clay isn't gay. But look at all the buzz... and with his next CD due, which has been already been described as "vocally stunning" I would remind everyone of the old show biz adage... there is NO such thing as bad publicity.
Don't worry Claymates, this will all become even more laughable than it already is when the CD publicity begins.
All is well.

intelligence is dead
Posted by hikingartist:
His name rhymes with gay. That's close enough for me.
Posted by Joan:
He's very definitely a good Christian boy, and he's a fine talent. Granted, there is ugliness out there, but it isn't in Clay Aiken.
Posted by In the know:
There are 3 groups who think/believe Clay is gay:1. Gay people 2. Other musicians who are afraid & jealous of his success & know his CD is about to drop & will outsell them 3. fans of other American Idols who know the same thing as the jealous musicians The media jumps every time Clay is seen with a guy but NEVER mentions when he is seen with a female, which is often. People who are his fans and the people who KNOW Clay KNOW for a fact that he IS NOT gay. I am one who KNOWS he is NOT. Believe it or not.
Posted by musicfan:
ENOUGH ALREADY; CLAY AIKEN IS DEFINITELY NOT GAY
Posted by Marty:
it isn't about who Clay sleeps with. It is about Clay having a good Christian choirboy image and lying to everyone about who he is. This is about deception.
Posted by blender:
Yawn.
Who the h*ll cares who Clay sleeps with? Seems like an okay guy. I say leave him the h*ll alone.
