Clay Aiken graduates



Clay Aiken graduated today from the University of North Carolina with a bachelor of arts in special education. I couldn't make up this shit if I tried.

His album is AWFUL. All that is wrong with modern music. Manufactured, plastic drivel that sells to the AC crowd but has no heart (or soul). Now that World Idol is upon us, will we ever be rid of this music-by-committee approach that typefies most labels' modern business scheme sad?

I can only pray

I mean this:

http://www.worldidol.tv/

"All the world's a stage... World Idol is the planet's biggest search for a superstar. Winners from the completed first series in 11 territories will step up onto the world stage and battle it out to be crowned the biggest ever pop sensation! This truly international competition will be staged in London and broadcast to all participating countries. Viewers will choose the winner through a phone vote with the results broadcast over New Year. There can be only one! You decide... "

This includes idols from the US (Kelly Clarkson), Canada (Ryan Malcolm), the UK (superstar Will Young) and Australia (Guy Sebastian).

Everyone co-opted Fox's idea and now it's spawned 11 more plastic-sounding CDs.

He graduated from University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Let's not confuse that with University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill). We wouldn't want to soil the reputation of such a good school...

Check out that pic- he looks like a nerd again, like before he started Idol...

How was is it Fox's idea when it started in the U.K?
