Clay's New Friend

Filed under: Clay Aiken > Z List

wenn1796228.jpg

Seems like Clay Aiken is afraid of getting beat up, or he just really hates strangers.

The Spamalot "star" has been recently traveling with an extremely large bodyguard to protect him from all of the "fans" that mob him.

It seems Clay's obsession with protection is going even further.

Clay even took his bodyguard to the third anniversary party of Spamalot at Pigalle earlier this week.

You'd take a bodyguard to a celebrity studded event, where your "fans" aren't even allowed inside because… Is he afraid other celebs will mob or attack him?

Diane Sawyer was in attendance as well. Maybe he was afraid she'd dropkick him.

"Clay stood there with the bodyguard all night," said one partygoer. "He stays a few feet away from him and follows him around. Apparently, Clay gets mobbed by fans, but this party was just other celebrities, so it was peculiar."

Maybe it's not even a bodyguard, and just a hired escort?

You know he likes to roleplay!

    Of course, the one's he courts some who can't handle it,
    then he kicks them right down low
    Just ask Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen
    Britney Spears or LiLo
    A sad man with no soul
    and a public with nothing better to do…
    All for advertising dollar
    things are so sad, who knew??

    Hey, Odes! LOVED your poem about Perez's being such an idiot about people like Clay (who I happen to ADORE)! I do take issue with your statement "and a public with nothing better to do". I have an ABUNDANCE of better things to do, but sometimes I get kinda lazy, and websites like PerezHilton provide me with "entertainment" while I'm trying to work up the motivation to do those "better" things.

  39. me says – reply to this


    39

    trying to get some hits??
    Fuck u pigiz!!!
    all fans know the "bodyguard" jerome is clay's friend! he's a very nice man! and clay has the right to take him any where he wants to because of crazy ppl like u and ur z listed party goer!

    clay is Z listed!!!!! are u desperate and jealous this much?!! u need a fact checker….. fugly bitch!

    This Clay guy actually makes me want to…I don't know. I find his face revolting, obnoxious, he looks unclean, he's like pudding all soft. I find him to be a real, real, pervert-looking guy. A body guard! He probably hired the guy to be his gal-pal. What a JOKE. Fans. Are you kidding me?!!??

    58

    The more I read your site, the more I've come to realize that you're just another self-hating gay. You're only out as a gay man to gain publicity and based on your comments about various celeb's sexuality, you're really ashamed of who you are: fat, ugly (both outside and inside), effeminate, bitter, needy, and very lonely.

  59. Charlie says – reply to this


    59

    Clay is not as great as the reviews make him out to be. Apparently, he's bored with the show. Rumor has it in the B'way community, that he's trying to break contract, and quit. It was a very unwise decision to stunt cast Clay. Since he joined, attendance has been down, and for the first time in the show's history you can get Spamalot tickets at TKTS booths. The producers are basing the marketing for the show around his performance, and it's hurting the show. He's on record saying he hated the show when he first saw it. So, why is he even in the show? I have seen more "Clay mates" cry outside the Shubert stage door because Clay is a little diva, and he can't be bothered to be a proper B'Way actor. I know people who no longer like him who used to because of his attitude.

  60. Charlie says – reply to this


    60

    And, for all those commenting on his hair….it's a wig. get over it.

  61. JJJ says – reply to this


    61

    He has had the bodyguard for some time… and after meeting a couple of his Claymate fans last month at a Spamalot showing, I can understand why… some of them are fucking scary! (rumor has it that the bodyguard even his own fan base within the Claymates world)

  62. Chatoyer says – reply to this


    62

    I dont get it does he like tits or black cock…..tahaha

  63. PerezPriction says – reply to this


    63

    He's got social anxiety disorder. He probably made Jerome go with him so he wouldn't freak out. Too bad he couldn't bring a friend or date to the party. Poor thing is probably afraid someone will put web photos in his face. I'd be paranoid too.

  64. Dale says – reply to this


    64

    A bodyguard?? For what he is paying for that service is eating at whatever salary he is getting from the Shubert organization!!! And not even Madonna pulled a stunt like that when she was in "Speed-The-Plow"!!!!!

  65. Balder says – reply to this


    65

    Re: Charlie – Charlie, you are a LIAR big time. Spam is sold out most days and Clay is fantastic in the play. What you wrote is completely off the wall!!! Clay is having a great time and it shows, so stop the BS. Jerome has been with Clay since Idol and is his friend and body guard and friends with the cast. The lady in the picture adores Clay and says it all the time in interviews. They are in full costume from the play in that picture.

  66. Amanda says – reply to this


    66

    Re: Charlie

    Acording to latest numbers, 99,7% af Spamalot tickets are being sold. And Clay has had great reviews.

    And he would never quit - he even hurt himself and still didn't miss a show!

    Re: Dale – Jerome is with the cast everyday, he was invited to the party, he is a great guy. Quess it was a slow news day, but people are sure interested in Clay Aiken!

  73. Yumm says – reply to this


    73

    Re: shut up! – Someone should put up pictures of what Clay really looks like now instead of the pictures Perez shows, he searches for the worst ones he can find. The guy is hot looking, really hot now. Slim and handsome.

  74. You ass says – reply to this


    74

    Re: luke – You really are an ass, you know? That's costumes and stage makeup and wigs, asshole. Neither one looks like that in person. You live in hickland or something?

  75. dabading says – reply to this


    75

    Maybe the real issue is….Mr Aikin had a really bad experience from an agressive fan, and swore he wouldn't deal with something like that again. So the question may really be: what was that exact experience? That's what I think when celebs have bodyguards in odd places; what was the dramatic conflict to get them to go to this extent?

    After reading the gossip item and Perez's added comments, I can see how shit gets started. Nothing has to be true, the more lies told the better it seems. People know who Jerome is, so the remarks made here by Perez and others show how ignorant they are of what's really going on. What fools, you just have to laugh at them.

    Dude, everyone knows the giant bodyguard is Jerome. He's worked security for Clay since Clay started on American Idol. Do your homework before you post, Perez. ;)

    actually thats Jerome his bodyguard hes always been his bodyguard since american idol tour, where have you been perez? their just really good friends he always has clays best intrest in mind. Leave clay alone, hes very talented honest young man:)

    how funny! jerome has been clays bodyguard and friend since american idol which was 5 YEARS AGO. really need to do some homework on this one. jerome is also close with the rest of the cast there. you are sickly obsessed with clay!

    88

    Perhaps he had a valid reason. You don't know why he hired a body guard. This is a non-story you're weaving. Your speculation is nothing of value. Suppose he has a stalker. You would hire a body guard too if it happenned to you.

  89. pigiz-is-low says – reply to this

    he has a stalker u idiot!!!
    and having stories like these leaked to the public help that stalker… IDIOT!!

    DON'T YOU WISH YOU HAD THE FAN BASE THAT CLAY HAS, PEREZZZZZZZZ!!
    THERE ARE SOME FOLKS OUT THERE (LIKE YOURSELF,PEREZZZZZZZZZZ, WHO ARE 'CLAY HATERS', AND WOULD SAY OR DO ANYTHING TO CREATE A SCENE FOR THE PUBLIC). IT'S IN CLAY'S BEST INTEREST THAT HE HAS A BODYGUARD WITH HIM, TO KEEP JERKS LIKE YOU AWAY FROM HIM. SORRY,
    BUT IT'S THE TRUTH!!! WHY DON'T YOU GET OUT THERE AND DO SOMETHING CREATIVE WITH YOUR LIFE AND MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE INSTEAD OF LOOKING FOR WAYS TO CRITICIZE AND HURT OTHERS.

    ok, so i was at that party and i work with clay. he is a great guy! and jerome, his bodyguard is an amazing guy! it is required by the producers of spamalot for him to have security with him to protect the investment the show has made to him performing 8 shows a week. claymates are crazy!!! i have seen it first hand and even read some of the fanmail. you'd need a big black man standing beside you too.
