American Idol Fan

While the news of Clay Aiken coming out reporting that he is gay is not news to many of us, apparently it is a huge media event right now!  Everywhere I look on the Internet someone is writing about Clay revealing his lifestyle that he has kept under wraps for years. 

People reports that Clay Aiken might lose a few fans but he has some former Idol contestants who are standing up for him and showing their support.  Carmen Rasmusen, who was competing against Aiken in Season 2, tells People that:

“This news does not change my opinion of him or my friendship with him. I’m surprised, I guess because he kept it quiet for so long!”

Vanessa Olivarez remembers that Clay never ever talked about his personal life but she suspected all along. She supports him as well.
