Alright, from one gay, talented musician to another, not-so-out and certainly not-as-talented musician. Of course you kids remember this morning’s post on which we linked to Perez Hilton‘s photos of a man looking suspiciously like Clay Aiken trying to get some digital dickin’ on Manhunt.
Well, we got a lot of comments in a very short amount of time, including this not-so-love note from a reader named Susan:
Do you all really think Clay Aiken is that stupid? Please – just goes to show the intelligence level of this site. Go back a year ago and you will see exactly the same text in the same kind of e-mails. Give it up will ya. Not even Perez is that stupid – and he is way down there.
Oh, please, Susan, Perez may be a lot of things, but he ain’t stupid.
Aiken, on the other hand, well, it seems you’re wrong and he is, in fact, unforunately, a total dunce. Yes, reader Derek, the pictures could be photo shopped, but how would that explain these pictures of Aiken wearing the same rings as his alleged double?
Also, with regard to the remark from VMag (V Magazine?), “Queerty and Perez Hilton are both toxic to the gay community.” Interesting hypothesis. We think we’re way less toxic than, say, famous people who deny their sexuality, thus depriving young fans a potential idol.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
What about this post from “Clay Aiken”: “Yes, I am gay! deal with it!” Hoax? Probably, but wouldn’t it be nice if Aiken wanted to set up a little chat with us? We’re really very sweet…
Hunter Hoop
Thank god Clay himself has stepped in to calm the speculation. Phew, thought this debate would never end. Thanks Clay!
Right.
I just think it’s laughable, the people jumping to defend him. If someone won’t publicly come out then they deserve to be outed…simple as that. It’s the only way for the gay community to be de-stigmatized and that’s through bringing gay discussion into a comfortable public forum.
And if you don’t want to be outed…don’t have and use a fucking manhunt account. Dumbass.
Ryan
I second that. What the hell people? Yes, he’s in the closet. We all know what the closet is and how hard it is to sustain, but what the fuck. These people are famous — their asses are all in your faces, singing in your ears, smiling on magazines even when we don’t want to notice that they exist. So if I have to suffer the face time, I want to know things that might make me a bit less impartial to these silly people. If he didn’t want people to truly know, he wouldn’t try to be famous. And he wouldn’t do this…
hughman
you’re right about one thing. i wouldn’t use the word “stupid” to describe “Perez Hilton” when so many other words spring to mind first.
tasteless. banal. non-funny. childish. crass. delusional. etc.
also, where’s the link to this supposed quote in VMag? if it’s in regards to outing people, i’ve never read you outing someone here. reguritating Perez’s cud, maybe but that’s a whole different story.
Your Momma
CLAY AIKEN IS NOT GAY YOU GIANT HOMOS!!
JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT HIM TO BE DOESN”T MEAN THAT HE WILL EVER BE ONE OF YOU DISGUSTING IMMORAL HATERS!!
I CANT WAIT TILL HE SUES EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!
Janet
Clay is so gay. I just don’t get why anyone would want to fuck him. He’s so fugly and gross.
Alan
I agree with Janet. Tell Your Momma there isn’t a gay man on the planet who wished Clay Aiken was gay – Taylor Hicks, now that’s another story.
These Clay-mates who try and deny Clay his gayness are just the new versions of the fans Liberace and Barry Manilow had at their peaks.
finally – I have NEVER met a completely straight man who wore a thumb ring. NEVER.
jz
god, he never takes those damn rings off…echhh….
you idiot claymates…YES HE IS GAY….
you are all a bunch of obsessed freaks
Why you are so fucking obsessed with clay’s sexuality is a myestery to me. You are so bored with your lame lives (I know this is old, but hey it’s true) that you feel the need to stick your dick into Clay’s life. Look, just leave him alone already you cock suckers. go fuck perez. he loves that.
walk in his shoes
JP,
imagine if you were clay aiken and you lived his life and he did all the bullshit that you did to him, to you. how would you feel and what would you do? take into account with perez and all his other stalkers as well.
it’s just that simple. walk in his shoes. don’t you know what you obsessed freaks are doing to him? i’d hate to be clay right now, regardless of talent because people can’t even see that he’s got talent since they’re so wrapped up in finding out if he’s gay or not. that is how lame society is becoming today.
Lionel
The interest isn’t in what his sexual preference is, it is that he is such a liar and won’t be truthful, even when given the opportunity.
Clay is the one who told People magazine in September that that first webcam pics weren’t him, Clay is the one that won’t talk to gay press and Clay is the one that has perpetuated a holier-than-thou goody two shoes image that is “waiting for the right woman” and doesn’t believe in sex before marriage.
Da
Get yourself together Andy, seriously. Or take a good break.
This stuff is embarassing and destructive for us..and I’m starting to think it’s about time we as a community do something to get stop Perez. What he spreads out there is evil (can’t believe I’m using that word) and it’s contagious. It’s sure messed up with a lot of people’s values.
Charlotte R.
Claymates love to pretend to be gay men who are offended that Perez would DARE suggest that Clay is gay. Please see “Da” above for an example of this.
Face it Claymates, the jig is up! There are 4 seperate sets of webcam photos now, not to mention a man who blogged for a year about his tryst with Clay. Maybe you old ladies should get used to admitting that Clay is indeed gay and stop putting so much energy into denying the obvious.
As Lisa Lampanelli says: “Clay Aiken? The only thing that’s achin’ is his asshole!”
Da
Charlotte R. I don’t recall ever seeing your name before, but I post on this blog all the time..so I have no idea what you’re on about.
And my argument goes beyond Clay’s sexuality (good for you if you’ve figured out accurately where he stands though!). What I’m discussing with my posts on this topic is ideas, not gossip…
Clay Fan
Its a fabricated story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lmao
Charlotte only falls under the categories of Perez/this site. She is one of the obsessed that is too dumb to even noticed that all those pics were stolen and used in a stunt. She is just too dumb for words.
Derek
You say: “Yes, reader Derek, the pictures could be photo shopped, but how would that explain these pictures of Aiken wearing the same rings as his alleged double?”
I think you missed the point of my comment. That could very well be Clay Aiken in the webcam pics, rings and all. I just can’t understand how a Yahoo webcam capture is proof that someone is using Manhunt to cruise for sex. The original Perez Hilton posting was clearly offering only one explanation, without any solid proof.
Where was the talk of meeting for sex? Of Clay’s sexual likes/turn-ons? Come on, it’s a cruising site. It seems odd that Clay would reveal his famous face to just anyone, without any kind of discussion to make certain they were sexual compatible first.
Is it possible the photos/chatlog are what Perez claims them to be? Absolutely. Is it possible that someone who had the cam pics of Clay showed them to someone else, who showed them to someone else, until they were used by someone to create a bogus exchange? Absolutely.
I have no problem with Clay being gay (and frankly, I think he is). I have no problem with Clay, or anyone else, looking for sex wherever (or with whomever) they can find it. I just find it interesting that so many people are quick to accept something as fact, just because Perez Hilton says it’s true.
thank you no. 16
See, even though No. 16 thinks Clay is gay, this poster at least has a lot more common sense than you obsessed fucks who will believe anything that the eye can see. OHMYGOD What if I posted a screen shot of a webcam up on my blog of you or anyone else, does that automatically make them gay? I guess according to you, perez, and all the idiots that are stupid enough to buy this shit think so. There is no explanation of what that picture was used for, just shit talk from stalkers who like to make up shit to bring people down.
boobsy
Ok, so Clay is a big ole queen…whatever…but I’m sick of the whole no straight man wears a thumb ring thing. That’s just not true. Maybe they didn’t think the thumb ring thing through well enough, but there are definitely straight men who wear them. I am NOT saying this to say I don’t believe Clay’s gay because of course he is gay…but when you use such a dumbass argument it sounds really stupid. Sorry, but it does.
they'll do anything
people will go to ridiculous and dumb lengths to prove that clay is gay, even with the ring argument as you say, teehee.
also
also, i’ll post this again saying that the pics on perezhilton.com looks like a class project that i did this past semester. i googled a screen shot of a computer monitor or picture frame, and posted anything i wanted there. it’s just that easy. and you’re even more of an idiot for believing perez because he is KNOWN for photoshopping. you are such a fuck tard for posting this as evidence to prove that clay is gay.
i’d give you the link to what i’m talking about, but then again, you’d probably start stalking me too.
spiffy
Alan (No. 6),
PLEASE do not open another can of worms that is Taylor Hicks… The Hets can keep him as far as I’m concerned.
Thanks so much.
Howie
I, Howie Mandel, wear a thumb ring. In fact, I was on Leno the same day as Clay this Fall. We both had thumb rings on. I am happily married with kids, so don’t go thinking that only gay men wear thumb rings!! Dumb ass!
i'm not speaking as a claymate, i'm speaking as someone with common sense and a brain, something th
I just posted this in your other blog about clay, but i’m gonna post this again.
Some people may think that I’m speaking as a Claymate, but I’m not, I’m speaking as some one with common sense and a brain to know that every single thing posted about Clay’s sexuality and his meetings with men never happened. Get that through your idiotic heads that these perverts created all these stories to make Clay try and come out. But you know what dipshits? The more you create these lame stories, the more you probably scared him into the closet, even if he is gay. Leave him the fuck alone and stalk someone else. He will never throw the towel in to you scumbags.
something that the lame society we live in doesn't have
sorry, had to get my name out. because yes, this is fact that the majority of the lame society we live in today do not have brains and believe every single made up story about clay aiken because they’re too wrapped up into wanting him to come out to even consider that he’s not gay.
the funny thing is, no matter what clay says, people are gonna have a problem with him being straight, or being gay. so give it a fucking rest you dead beats.
found this at perezhilton.com posts, thought u should know, too since it relates to you
This applies to all of you obsessed freaks, quoting a poster because I cannot find Clay’s blogs.

"It seems over the past few weeks, the tabloids and gossip mongers have had their hands full coming up with new and exciting "scandals" for me to be a part of. Yet, for all of their efforts to be on the "cutting edge" and the forefront of bull$#@& journalism, it seems that some of them may be running out of ideas and resorting to recycling and re-hashing some of their older tall tales. How sad!?
With this in mind, we thought maybe we would try to give them a finger.... er.. a hand.
For all of the contests that we hold here on the OFC, this one promises to be one of my favorites.
Build-Your-Own-Scandal!
That's right! Let's show off the creative abilities of the greatest group of fans on Earth.
The contest is simple, but will require some thinking and planning...
Come up with the most outlandish story you can that places me (either alone or with others close to me) in a really juicy/tawdry/scandalous/shameful story.
Then, use any photos, videos, audio clips of me that you can find along with your favorite multimedia enhancing/"doctoring" program (like a PhotoShop or a sound/video editor) to create your "evidence"!
Maybe you have "pictures" of me being "abducted by oversized turnips"... or ... "video" of me "dancing with a three legged gorilla". Be creative!
You'll submit your "story" and "evidence" to an address that you'll find online here at the OFC very soon.
I'll personally pick the "story" that not only is most creative, but has the most CONVINCING and REALISTIC looking "evidence"!
(It obviously can't be that hard to come up with!)
The winner(s) will be featured here... PLUS... there will be a great prize to go along with the honor of being the creator of "Scandal 2007"
This one is gonna be fun!!
Feel free to get started thinking...but, keep your eye out for details on rules/requirements for entry and deadlines and prizes. they be announced here soon.
Happy Fabricating!!

Current Mood: Excited"
TAKE THAT PEREZ!! YOU SCUMBAG!!
harharhar at you fat fucks
Much has been said lately about Clay Aiken .. what he’s all about…”who” he really is ….what is true about him. I therefore thought I’d interrupt your regularly scheduled blog to bring you a quick portrait and an update…the TRUTH about Clay Aiken.
The so-called anti-fans, or haters, have created an image of who he is in their minds and in their conversations. They have helped to push this image into the public consciousness. Their “sources” are a few fans who had a bad meet and greet experience, a few individuals who tried to use Aiken’s foundation to get close to him … only he saw the hypocrisy and didn’t respond to them the way they wanted, and a few fans of fellow “American Idol” contestants Kelly Clarkson and Ruben Studdard, fans who were outraged when Aiken sold more copies of his first CD than either. What unites these three groups is the sense of vengeance and retribution that underlies their hatred. And then there is the group that will not accept any answer but that Aiken is gay, and not just simply gay but recklessly amoral. (See previous blog.)
Among the various qualities attributed to Aiken in the past week by these varied individuals:
Diva, fraud, hypocritical, internet-trolling-gay-sex-addict, pill popping, drug addicted, dying of AIDS, bloated, overweight, on the verge of a breakdown, losing his voice, crushing the dreams of dying children, not caring about his foundation, child hating, on the brink of financial ruin, comparisons to Michael Jackson and all that that implies, losing his fanbase, slovenly, irresponsible, hates his fans, *beep* talentless hack … and more. I’ve probably left out a couple of things.
Yes it is totally ridiculous, over-the-top and laughable, yet that, they insist, is the TRUTH about Clay Aiken. They say they “do what they do” so the “Claymates” and the rest of the world will know the TRUTH about that screwed up, devious, evil, threat to humanity known as Clay Aiken. (You can stop laughing now.) Currently, they are encouraging people on their sites to go spam Clay’s UNICEF page on Yahoo with nasty, hate-filled questions.
Then there are a few crazy and opportunistic internet glory seekers, tabloid “journalists,” and gossip bloggers who, since they can’t find anything legitimately bad to say about Aiken, either make something up … or rely on “information” and “tips” passed down by those very same people I mentioned above.
What all of these people have in common is … well, is that they don’t actually KNOW Clay Aiken! They just like to think they do. Yet they still want everyone to think like they do, and hate Aiken… even if it means fabricating their “evidence” to give to the willing bloggers and tabloid journalists who are just waiting to spread the bogus information far and wide.
So …. time for a reality check. Time to hear from people who actually KNOW Aiken.. people with whom he has worked and grown up… people with whom he is associated in his charity work…fellow musicians, former teachers, representatives from UNICEF. Who will you choose to believe? Whose information rings the most true? Those who actually know him–some for years– or those who don’t? People with upstanding reputations, or faceless posters and hatemongers on the internet? Legitimate journalists or rags like the tabloids or Perez Hilton?
And well, quite frankly, you Clay-haters imply who you think knows Clay better. And it sure isn’t his family and friends.

about the contest
You wanna know who I think the winner is already? It’s John Paulus himself with the tall tale meetings for gay sex at the alleged hotel, with pictures and camera angles to make it look so real. To top it off, he even had a picture of “evidence” with a scum-bag cum-rag that was probably his own cum plastered on there. No one can top John Paulus and his stories. Perez’s attempt in outting clay is just too pathetic. Hilarious, though.
I’m a computer techie and could easily and effortlessly do what Perez has done.
Think you suck
Why is PH such a pussy? He jumps Clay Aiken, but hides behind a fake name……His real name is Mario Lavandeira. He’s a Cuban.
Clay
OKOK< OK< OK
to "Clay"
Did you know that it is illegal to pose as someone who you are not? You could get arrested if you are caught. Your lame attempt at being Clay has already been done in the previous post.
