Poor Clay Aiken is supposed to be clearing the air about the gay rumors while he promotes his new album, but he still leaves us hanging. We personally could care less but when you hear his name, or look at his latest hairdo, gay comes to mind. When asked directly if he was gay, he said,

"What do you say (to that question)? … It's like when I was 8. I remember something would get broken in the house, and Mom and Dad would call me in and say, 'Did you do this?' Well, it didn't matter what I said. The only thing they would believe was yes. … People are going to believe what they want."
I guess when going from geek to chic the world speculates and like Clay said, we'll believe what we want.

he's probably not gay, and he's right. people are going to believe what they want to so it doesn't even matter what he says.
if that mop of his was a little fluffier and darker i think it would look pretty cute.
1Geek to chic? He is still a geek to me.
2In this pic he looks like Phoebe from Friends (can't remember her name) with a short hair cut!
3Hello! He's gay. We all know this.
4this "make-over" is terrible. too feminine.
5He's just not ready to come out yet.
6Sounds like a big fat YES to me!
7No kidding Valeri, he actually looks more feminine with this overhaul.
8How would he not be gay!
Happy Wizard of Oz Wednesday!
9Oops Ive messed up the coments
10Why should he have to answer this question? It's his business, isn't it? Unless he's having sex with you, why should you care?
11Damn, we don't need to know everything about somebody once they get on t.v.
I agree lovedirt. who cares? if youre convinced he is then why do you need to hear it? why does this matter?
12He is so gay, people. That's why he won't lie and deny it.
13who cares??? we are living in 2006!!!!!! let him be!!
14I really like Clay. I could careless if he is gay or not. He is like Barry Manilow.. I don't think he will ever tell.
15All I can say is compared to what he looked like as a child when he said he spent his life being bullied and harassed, I think he looks 200% better now. It truly is amazing what Hollywood, stylists, money etc can do for a person.
I often wish they would come out with sweepstakes that would offer this as a prize. Not just a simple makeover but a Hollywood makeover, with all the bells and whistles.
16he use to work with children on the autism spectrum, so i have a soft spot for him too. but this makeover, i mean really. all the people around him in the industry and no one bothers to tell him he looks like sh*t?
17lol!
18Yall are right who cares if he is gay? Obviously he does or he wouldnt keep talking about it or pushing the issue with his wardrobe. Sorry straight men do not dress an act this way. He takes metro sexual to the extreme.
Happy Wizard of Oz Wednesday!
19I think he needs bigger teeth. His tiny teeth are what makes his mouth look strange. He is a good guy and I watched him from American Idol.. I stand my ground I will defend Clay!!!
20Frankly, I don't give a rodent's posterior if he's gay or not.
21I think he is, but it doesn't really matter. I'm from his area and I don't hear much about him here anymore. For awhile it was nuts!
I really don't care but lookin' at him i would say ya..but he could just be one ugly metrosexual! ew
22Bla bla bla...gay.
23Dude can sing, the rest is just gossip. Oh yeah, that's why we're here!
I'm not
feeling the new 'do, but still like him.
24i dont care what he is he'll always be gross to me no matter what he does to his hair.
25Gay or not apparently he acted like a real diva in Toronto on the weekend according to Laineygossip.com anyways. He berated a 14 year old girl so badly she burst into tears. He was supposed to be encouraging not doing a Simon Cowell impression.
26Did he forget where he came from already! lol idiot
Ding. ding, ding...my gaydar just went off.
27If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck - it's a duck. Everything about this man says flaming fag.
28I agree its not our business if he is gay or not BTW he is 110% gay lol but he is in the public eye being in the industry he is and what if he wants a date for some red carpet event or whatever he should be able to openly go with his boyfriend or significant other without being secretive plus he can be a role model for other gays but oh well thats just my opinion
29Not that there's anything wrong with that.
30just cause he is geeky doesnt mean he is gay... his hair is not gay either-- arent gay men supposed to be better styled then that!?
31LOL Lauren, yah I don't get that part of the equation either. How does he look gay? He looks geeky to me.
That said, I totally think he's gay. LOL But I could care less, and frankly wish they would stop bugging him about it.
32I could care less if he is a gay!! I think he looks like DROP DEAD FRED!! Oh and Griffin you got me in trouble for laughing!! You have a awsome gaydar!!!
33ah yes the classic non answer which in PR language means "yes but my publicist told me not to answer" Whatever I don't care if he is or not I liked him on Idol but not anymore so go fly a kite
34He looks like KD Lang. Anyway, yeah, why must we always ask people if they're gay or not, if they want to come out, let them come out. He is right, if he says no, not many people are going to believe him anyway. The just waiting for him to say "yes." I do wish for a time when nobody is scared to say what the are, and if someone is asked if they're gay (or asked something else) they can openly say "yes" without fear of physical abuse or open judgement. A girl can only dream.
35What a cute girl!!
36Give it up Clay you as gay as they come!
37hes trying to go around the question, when someone does this they are trying to cover up for something. A simple No to that question would of been fine, but he has to go into a childhood story? He is gay!
38hey_love02 - why should he answer the question in the first place? It's none of our business.
39I don't care if he's gay or not, however, from this quote it clearly sounds like he is but he's not admitting it. There's no denial of being gay in that little speech.
40I think he is and is trying to make the point that it shouldn't matter...and it doesn't!
Bad hair, though. Fug!
41Well he already answered a few years ago,I think it was in Rolling Stone.He said he wasnt..Even if thats not true,why should he have to keep answering it?
42He said he wasn't gay lots of times but they just keep pushing for a yes answer. They didn't listen when he answered so many times and then they started all the tabloid gossip lies to force him to come out. He can't come out if he isn't gay so leave him alone. I think he was telling the truth all along and he's tired of the topic so he won't talk about it anymore. Maybe he's smart. He'll get married and have kids one day and be happy. I think it would be horrible to have people make fun of you for something you're not.
