(antiMusic) Faded Youth: celebrity terrorist blog has an interesting update on Clay Aiken. For fairness sake, it is readily evident that Faded Youth do not think highly of the karaoke contest runner up and have been following the "gay Clay" controversy rather closely. Their latest story was published on Monday and discusses how Aiken was dropped from the Christian based Pure Fashion Show in Atlanta this past weekend after organizers discovered the gay controversy surrounding the pop singer. Faded Youth included two emails sent out by organizers of the event that explained why Aiken was dropped from the event. That first email said in part "We were so excited about Clay Aiken appearing as a young man who promotes Christianity in the music industry and then we started to be inundated with e-mails referring to scandal. We searched for his public response and couldn't find one, so at this time we will have to error on the side of caution until these matters are resolved. Our producer will be contacting his management team today to let them know that it would be best for him not to appear at Pure Fashion until these questions floating around the media are answered." Despite a legion of rabid Claymates, all does not appear to be kosher in Clayville according to Faded Youth as they details a few other signs that Clay's star may be falling.

The emails they were inundated with came directly from the guy who claims to have had an affair with him. ROFL He and his army of idiots orchestrated the whole campaign to get Clay dropped from the event. Who cares if he's gay? The whole thing is just overkill. Let the guy live his life.

"Error on the side of caution?" Will he somehow broadcast subliminal gay urges to mindless sheep? I don't get it.

Clay Aiken is NOT gay. Clay Aiken is straight, and that is a fact. He said so in Rolling Stone Magazine. Clay Aiken was on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine in 2003. Clay Aiken is my favorite male singer and male entertainer. Clay Aiken is the greatest and the best male musical artist ever!!! Clay Aiken Rules!!!
