Yeah, I've never gotten that mentality. "You shouldn't say what you are because it's nobody's business and your private life should be kept private." But no one has a problem when straight people babble on about who they're fucking and who they're dating. There are different ways to come out. I think Clay felt the need to address his fans this way, as he is a public figure. Someone else can come out just by name-dropping their partner at the appropriate time. Different strokes.


Excuse you, but THIS straight man does have a problem with his fellow straight people putting their info on their bedroom activities out in the public.

Whatever happen to keeping their personal business to themselves & be discreet, regardless if they're straight, gay, bisexual, transsexual, trysexual, whatever?!?

totally agree, im tired of hearing about EVERYONES lives, i could care less who is gay, straight, bi, kissing girls, doing it in the bathroom stalls, and then i could really care less about who is doing who, who broke up, who is cheating, and while we are at it, can we BAN photos of celebs, pumping gas, going to starbucks, walking their dogs, buying ice cream for their kids, on vacation with their significant others etc...enough of this bullshit already. Its like freaking seinfeld, alot of shit about NOTHING.

There are still people who believe homosexuality is a choice and every gay person is going straight to hell. With this in mind, is it any wonder there are people who didn't believe Clay was gay? If homosexuality doesn't exist for in their little worlds, how can they possibly identify it?



Yes, and a very large portion of these people are called Christians. Which makes it all the more bizarre that he claims to be one? confused

Why is everyone saying how obvious it was that he's gay? Because he didn't at first say for himself, your opinions of him being gay were based on a stereotype. I've met quite a few men who look like him that werent gay. And I'm not a fan, haven't even heard a song from him, but what is it about him that made people so intent he was gay in the first place?

Not at all. Several Christian denominations are accepting of homosexuality, and some of those even perform same-sex marriages and affirm gays as ministers.

It's not his looks so much as his body language. Even the burliest bear can inadvertently give himself away by something as simple as a walk or the stance of his shoulders. The fact that Clay is visually gay just cements it. It may be a stereotype, but in this case it's one that's warranted. I'd dare anyone who didn't know who Clay Aiken was to look at him and seriously proclaim him a straight man.

I've heard stories he was involved with some man in his entourage. Plus there was the photos of him on a webcam chatting with another man for sex.

Well sorry but to me this news was as obvious as the fact that Mick Jagger can't sing to save his life. Good luck.

Clay has feminine qualities. Many gay men are, contrary to the stereotype, very masculine. These guys don't "inadvertently give themselves away" with a walk or the stance of their shoulders or whatever. When you say this, I assume you are referring to feminine traits "slipping out", as if the guys are trying to hide the fact that they dig other dudes when - all of a sudden - they slip up, and start sashaying across the room like Nathan Lane at a Jacqueline Susann appreciation night. No.

I so agree.

Especially the Brad/Angelina/Jennifer bullshit. How many years in a row now has Brad "left ANGE IN THE COLD!" or had "secret meetings with Jen!"

I'm quite stunned at how long that whole triangle has gone on. Brange have had 4 kids since this started and Jennifer has had about 4 more boyfriends since then.

TABLOIDS : MOVE ON!!!!!

God, no. I don't mean that every gay man is struggling to hide some flashy inner queen. Just that most queer men and women have something that sets them apart, even if they do fit into traditional gender behaviour.

I'm stunned that people care enough to keep buying those magazines. Though I do find the obvious pro-Jen slant fascinating.

The "Right On" magazine picture of P in the suspenders and red shorts would have been perfect.

I took it more as a residual "Friends" thing. A lot of the fanbase apparently got really attached to Jen and wanted to defend their "friend" Rachel against the crazy incestuous man-stealing vampire Angelina.

Which is basically what I said. lol

They want the "funny", cute, girl next door over the wild, dark, impossibly beautiful woman.

It's like the normality of Jen gave them hope regarding good looking men, then when he ran off with Angelina, it's like they don't have that "chance" anymore...

Yes, it's retarded. lol
