Gay Survivor and all around hunk Charlie Herschel had a brief, yet daily, IM relationship with Clay Aiken, but says they’re not that close: “We’ve only hung out, like, twice. I fell out of touch with him for a little while, but there was a point when I was in law school that I was on IM almost every day, so we used to IM almost every day. But we haven’t spoken since I got back from Africa, so he doesn’t even know I was on Survivor. But there was a point, up through when I left for Survivor, where we were in pretty close contact.” [The Advocate]

Clay Aiken? Now that’s repulsive…..
Sam
I don’t know, he’s kind of cute. It sounds like this Survivor guy is talking without OKing it with Aiken first. That, I think is repulsive, especially as he says in the Advocate they are still friends & he hopes to hang out with him again. I hate anyone who rides someone’s coattails for fame.
