Is CLAY AIKEN gay? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Raleigh, N.C - In his hometown of Raleigh, N.C., there may be no doubt, but throughout the rest of the country, there is only hope—hope that just maybe, quite possibly Clay Aiken, the 24-year-old American Idol finalist and singing sensation might not be gay, but instead be just "really sensitive."

"He is gayer than the gayest gay guy in the entire gay world," says 16-year-old Josh Austin, who dated Winters for two months just before the second American Idol season began. "I am so sick of every girl in this state talking about that gay guy. He's so gay my butt hurts just looking at him."

"Gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay," Austin taunts.

lol, why hope that he's really sensitive? I think Clay is ugly, but I do think it'd be really sweet if a current teen idol comes out of the closet... everytime we get an openly gay pop star, it's always a decade after people stopped caring (I mean, why didn't George Michael come out when he was actually popular?)

you better watch what you say about CLAY. These rabid fans will bite you and spread something.

dlemond · 07-20-2004, 02:56 PM

Most likely.

But who cares?

Seems nice enough.

I'm not a fan of Clay Aitken and I really couldn't give a **** about him as an artist but this thread strikes me as being slightly homophobic so I feel like I have to say something:
If Clay Aitken is gay - who cares?! It's his business - nobody else's. If he doesn't want to come out then that's entirely up to him. I hate the way the media sets out on some kind of witchhunt everytime they get even the slightest hint that some celebrity might be gay or lesbian. There are more important things going on in the world than what celebrity is sleeping with who!
Personally I think we need more openly gay teen icons. There are still too many kids growing up without knowing any gay people and thinking that there is something wrong with it. If Clay is gay then more power to him!

It would be perfectly fine if he came of of the closet...Except for the fact that he isn't gay! People bring it up aaaaaaaall the time and he constantly denies it. I can't stand it when people go around calling him gay, when he's never actually said it.

when you reach STAR STATUS then you loose all rights to privacy. The public should know. You are a public icon and anything you do should and will be judged. As far as being homophobic thats what i call a witch hunt.

yes, I do think part of the reason you find a lot more "gay-friendly" people who were teens in the 1990's was because they were exposed to celebrities like Ellen Degeneres and Melissa Etheridge, who were appealing and in their peak and able to proclaim they were gay... whereas before that, it was just Boy George and The Village People who people knew of as "gay people" in the day, and both of them presented negative stereotypes.

jekouptown · 07-20-2004, 03:15 PM

i agree with you. We can openly discuss anything but when you ask a question about certain individuals its taken out of context. We can have a thread discussing RUBEN STUDDARD and his weight gain but we can't discuss if CLAY AIKEN is dating BOY GEORGE.

I think Clay is a little too twinky for George's taste, lol.
