Clay Aiken loses record deal

Season two American Idol contestant Clay Aiken and his record company RCA Records have broken up.

According to Billboard, Aiken and the record lable went their separate ways after his latest album “On My Way There” only sold 159,000 copies since it was released in May 2008.

Aiken placed second during season two of American Idol. He lost to Ruben Studdard.

Placing second on the popular talent show doesn’t necesarily translate into success.

Justin Guarini placed second on season one, Katherine McPhee placed second on season five, Blake Lewis placed second on season six, Bo Bice placed second on season four, Taylor Hicks placed first on season five and Ruben Studdard won season two.

Yet, all of them eventually lost their record deals.

Clay Aiken admits that he is gay

In the latest issue of People magazine, which will be on newsstands Wednesday, singer Clay Aiken finally confirms that he is gay. (applause)

Clay is quoted as saying “Yes, I’m Gay. It was the first decision I made as a father. I cannot raise a child to lie or hide things.”

Clay was referring to the child that he had with music producer Jaymes Foster via artificial insemination.

His admission about his sexuality probably won’t come as a surprise to anyone because basically everyone already knew. So, I guess it’s not really newsworthy if everyone knew from day one.

However, I’m glad that he can be able to breath a sigh of relief, and he doesn’t have to lie or hide anything anymore. I applaud him for trying to set a good example for his child.

The question still remains, how will this affect his career? Well, lets be honest here. He hasn’t had much of a career since he released his debut album five years ago.

I predict this will enhance his career because of the publicity that will follow. He is on the cover of People magazine this week. They’ve never put him on the cover before, and they never would have put him on the cover if he never came out of the closet.

I know most of you never thought you would hear anyone utter these five words: CLAY AIKEN HAS A BABY.

It’s true. His baby mamma Jaymes Foster gave birth to Clay’s baby Friday morning.

In case you’re wondering, Jaymes Foster is a music producer, and yes, she was impregnated by Clay through in vitro fertilization.…
