Ummm Guys…He's getting paid around 2 million in magazine money to come out..people magazine 1/2 million alone….And you still think is a great thing???

Gayken has always been ashamed of his homosexuality…and i wonder how gay teens offed themselves when they saw him acting like being gay was the worst thing possible???

if he gets paid now to come to my gay pride march…I'm definately boycotting….

Chilly in here isn't it?

I think it's nice to see him happier really…paid or not.

Good for him. I am glad he has decided to come out. I say welcome to the family Clay!

This is good for the community. Exposure is good. Goodness, I don't get the hate. Think bigger picture.

Do you think maybe his Broadway debut had something to do with it? I know when I started to work as a Broadway usher, the thrilling discovery of an arena where it was okay to be gay helped ease me out of the closet. Perhaps his co-workers impressed him with their attitudes and helped make him feel comfortable telling the truth for a change.

everytime I enter the "comments" section of a Clay-related post I can see my breath…anyway, I for one am no fan but everyone should be allowed to come out in their own time … but when I read that even his mother didn't know he was gay until recently…my gawd didn't she look at that school picture when he brought it home…?

This probably won't get seen as it's so old, but contrary to what Alan Brickman says or what the news article said, the mother of Clay's baby apparently posted at Clay's fan club that he didn't get paid at all for the interview or the photos. She said he refused payment of any kind to anyone.
