Gayken Back Tracks!
Clay Aiken takes it all back!
After ranting on his personal blog in which Gayken slammed both Idol runner-up Adam Glambert and the last handful of AI winners, Clay is now apologizing to the closeted singer!
Gayken wrote on Saturday morning:
I'll be the first to admit that my opinion is just that, only my opinion, but for as much as some of the bloggers seem to dislike me and care so little about my thoughts, they sure can waste a lot of their space on what I say! If only many of them took the time to pay attention to important things like the US economy and the welfare of the world's children. But… nah… I could blog about that type of stuff anytime and most wouldn't think twice, but let me say something that they can pick and choose quotes and misinterpret me… and it's showtime! I never assumed my opinion mattered so much! I guess I may have been wrong.
That said, since my previous blog got dissected like a biology lab frog, i suppose I should clarify and even retract some of what I wrote. I am sure that some were upset by my choice of words describing my opinion of a performance I heard from Adam Lambert. I hope no one actually believed that blood truly poured forth from my ears when I heard him. I obviously meant it as a colorful statement to imply that I did not enjoy what I heard. Any performer hopes that their music will appeal to all people, but no singer realistically expects it to. God knows, I am SURE there are PLENTY of people who can't stand to hear me sing either. I wouldn't dream of assuming that, and I am sure that far worse things have been said about my performances than I would even venture to type here. To me, that's fine. I don't expect unanimous, nor even majority support for my music. But, my guess is Adam doesn't either. I would not venture to make judgements [sic] on the personality or demeanor of anyone I don't know, so none of what I said in my previous blog was directed as a 'slam' on Adam as a person. At the same time, I wouldn't dream of slamming him as an entertainer. He does what he does, because he enjoys it, and he obviously has many fans who enjoy it as well. If what I said in my previous blog regarding my impression of a single performance from Adam upset or offended any of his fans, I expect that the mature ones will realize that it was simply a poorly worded metaphor describing my personal tastes. The only person I would really dream of apologizing to is Adam. And the irony is, if he's smart he couldn't give a crap what I think of his 'Ring of Fire' performance. As an entertainer, Adam knows that one person's opinion of one performance really matters a little less than zero, in the grand scheme of things. He could not have gotten on Idol (nor made it as far as he did) without an immense amount of talent. He surely doesn't need my approval to know he has a gift. At the same time, he realizes that amazing talent doesn't always equal universal appeal. (I could NEVER have the amount of skill and talent that ballet dancers have! that's talent! But, I don't particularly enjoy it!) I am sure that I will have plenty of opportunities in the coming years to hear Adam sing. I imagine he'll be around for years to come. But in the meantime, I definitely don't want to stoop to the level of so many negative freaks on the internet… so, I do apologize to Adam for my colorful (and negative) choice of words. I hope he can forgive me. I imagine he doesn't give a damn! God knows he shouldn't.
Uh, yeah, we're pretty aware of the fact that blood didn't pour from your ears when you first heart Glambert, Clay!
If you didn't want your words to be pulled apart, maybe you shouldn't have posted it online for the entire world to see???
Or have you forgotten how to use a pen and paper???
Dumb!

Fashion Hit Or Miss?
I still agreed with him before…100% on the AI situation
Lambert isn't horrible….he's just boring to me though
What a rude, stupid, androgenous little creep.
Stop fucking saying Adam Lambert is in the closet - HE IS NOT!!! Have you not seen any interview w/ him?? Just this friday he, and the rest of American Idol top 13, were on Larry King Live w/ Ryan Seacrest and Ryan asked him if the speculation about his sexual orientation made him lose any votes, Adam answered that maybe it did.
WTF Perez, if he'd been closeted he wouldn't even have answered that question and he would have said that he wasn't gay. Stop saying shit like this!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stop hating on him please! I liked you much more when you were on his side. He hasn't DENIED anything. Please understand that - there is a BIG difference. He is as open as possibly can be. He doesn't have to say the words, he doesn't have to talk about it in EVERY interview, he doesn't have to CONFIRM any fucking thing! Why can't you understand that? Does everyone need to live exactly like you to be accepted by you?
Can't you have respect and understanding for how other people want to live their lives? When someone is so comfortable in his own skin like Lambert is, when someone is so out there, when someone is so brave and different do he really need to say "I'm Gay!"?? It makes me sad that you think that he has to do that.
i agree with clay, wtf do people care what he thinks, like do you care most people htink ur a douche? non.
For someone who is always talking about ending hate Perez, you sure dish a lot of hate out. Kinda hypocritcal, don't you think? Clay criticized a performance, not Adam himself. Maybe you should look at Clay's willingness to apologize, and think about all the people you spend so much time hating on here.
AMEN, Perez! Ugh! Clay's words make me sick. He's so disrespectful. Adam would NEVER disrespect anyone. He has so much more class!
Adam ROCKS!!
Shutup Perez. This is OLD news. You should have been trolling other gossip sites yesterday when this was originally reported. You're losing your edge, or should I say you have already lost it.

Re: Masenko Candy –
what are you on crack….BORING? clay aiken is boring…adam is amazing.
Gayken' a Total Fu**ing LOSER. He almost makes Michael Jackson seem normal in comparison…..
I avoid American Idol. It makes my ears bleed.
Do people still watch that show?
Re: BobbieCD –
I agree. Adam's voice is pure, his lyrics are clear & audible and his talent is immense.
I don´t care one small bit for any of them, but EVERYONE is entitled to have a personal opinion.
he looks like Miranda from Sex and the City
I don't think his apology was in any way sincere. I think he just did it to cover his butt because probably some of his fans love Adam, too and he didn't want to risk alienating any of his fans.
I dont think Clay stand alone as the only AI contestant that thinks the politics and joke of what AI has become is beyond annoying. These guys were right thereinvolved in it so I think that when they talk about thier destest…well they would know bette than any of us what goes on. Clay isnt the only one. No I cant stand your singing Clay,,,,,,,,,and i reallycant stand Adams and it is all SCREAMING IMO. He should be in a death metal band. I do like Adamss I dont give a fuck what people think about me and blows thier opinions off attitude. Taht i do like. He isnt a whiner and is pretty damn secure with himself
Thats boy or girl or WHAT ???
lol who didn't see this coming? what a fucker…. clay, you STILL suck.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually like what Clay Aiken wrote. It's frank and honest and quite well thought out. Everyone has a right to an opinion in blog world… even him… but I like that he recognizes it's just that. AN OPINION, PEOPLE.
that guy is disgusting!
I'm sure Adam doesn't give 2 shits what Clay has to say!!! Adam will make more $$$ from his first record than Clay will make his whole life. I also think that Clay is bitter. Maybe jealous of Adam as well. Let's see now. Adam has the looks, style and can sing!! Clay is FUG, can't dress for shit and doesn't sell many records, PLUS the douche charges $$ for a Clay membership.. AHHHHHHHHH, I'll pass, thanks!!
dude - don't you think it slightly homophobic (if not ironic) for you to refer to him as Gaykin?
precisely nobody cares about gay aiken ass…………..
fuck he's ugly!
Gayken is obviously very jealous and threatened by Adam. Adam is sexy to both women and Gay men…Gayken is hideous and repulsive to both women and gay men.
It's just his opinion, don't read it if you don't want to know about it.
Re: BobbieCD –
Clay in the second season was AMAZING……..[Do you even remember this point of time—-WERE YOU EVEN BORN DURING THE SECOND SEASON OF AI????]
Adam was over hyped….Boring—>YAWN
Music has always been a personaly preference. You can't please everybody all the time.
Could He/She look anymore feminine?
Gayken? I take offense to that even if you are gay. Smarten up!!
I'm tired of you gay people
green isn't your color Clay
What is this pen and paper you talk about?

Hello, Pot? Meet Kettle Black. Moron.
Re: exBFF – Totally agree. I don't care at all about Clay Aiken himself, but every time I see Perez calling him Gayken, I cringe. It's so rude and HOMOPHOBIC.
I wonder how Perez would feel if someone constantly called him Gayrez Hilton, or Perez Fagton, or Perez Gayton, or something like that. Just feels totally wrong.
gayken was right. TEAM CLAY
Clay was just jealous anyway.
Gayken can speak his mind!!! Adam Lambert sucked! All of his songs sound like a 70's acid-tripped glam rock musical. yuck.
Who cares what this uneducated country bumpkin hasbeen has got to say? Nobody. That's who.
clay aiken is an irrelevant nobody manufactured by television executives and shoved down our throats. fuck him.
clay was writing about people like YOU PEREZ-ripping a few lines out and using them to your advantage. but that is normal you, isn't it? But wait, what are you and the rest of bogs criticizing Clay for-that he as a gay man does not support Adam. So, what alot of you are saying, is that Clay can't have a personel opinion-all gays must support other gays. BUT, if the reverse was true, that all heterosexuals have to support Kris, no personal opinions please, we would be homophobic. If you want equality, you are not going to gain it by having one sided rules and yelling homophobe at everyone.
Clay like you Mario needs to go back into the closet - not because you are flaming homos but because you are hard on the eyes. Your voices are annoying too. Clay will probably sell as many albums as you sold Red Carpet Suicide. Give it up already Gayelles.
MWUHAAAA
Fidel
Re: shittin_condoms – Thank you!!!
Re: Nubian Goddess With Dinner Plate –
anytime! thank you too
Re: dientesnuevos – you don't have gays yet you just used every homophobia slur known to man in your little rant….that was almost believable!
why is clay aiken even relevant anymore? who gives a fuck about his opinions or what he has to offer,,musically or otherwise,,i mean WTF ever
At least Clay is prettier than Ann Coulter! The scare crow neutered bitch.
You're such a d-bag perez. It's not alright for people to make fun of gay people but you can??? Ridiculous
YAWN ~ take that cock out of your mouth and post something Piggy!
Open mouth insert foot.
ugly talentless idiot
Clay can suck it!!! What a half arsed apology…nobodyyyyyyyyy cares CLAY!!
Everytime I see that disgusting smirk that he makes, makes me want to punch him in the face…he has this look, like he thinks he's the shit….AND YOU'RE NOT CLAYKIN…Adam on the other hand is a gorgeous soul…I don't have to hear him sing, in fact, I hardly watched the show…but I just love watching his articulate interviews, his confidence, his kindness, and his one of a kind persona…best of luck Adam…you're BEAUTIFUL!
you know what? i think that Clay's look exactly matches his name. Clay Aiken…
Re: SWEETPIECE! – Even when you have nothing to say, you'll still say it. Do you have a life?
Re: dientesnuevos – Hey.."dientesnuevos"–get the fuck off this site. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE GAYS, LEAVE HERE. IT IS A GAY MAN'S SITE. IT IS PINK—He loves cock. If that bothers you, don't "parade" your straight ass around here. GO AWAY.
I didnt have a problem with what Clay said…I actually agreed with him, and theres no reason to freak out Perez just because he voiced his opinion…but he was totally right though!!
Fuck you Perez. That was well said. Good for him
I'm gay and kind both of these guys unappealing musically.
Perez, I hope it wasn't really you who wrote this…(minus clay's quotes, duh)
You sound like a fucking idiot.
I never knew clay aiken was so intelligent, compared to you at least.
why are u such a hater? it's not funny or interesting to read..
Glambert is a million times more talented in singing than this guy will ever be. GO Adam!
Methinks he doth protest too loudly…
He wouldn't want to alienate his fans (all three of them!)
:)
But seriously folks, when was the last time he even made a record??
Or done anything newsworthy besides sperminate his female friend…
You're at 14:59 Clay…
Clay Aiken's face is scary! I can't get over it!
Why does anyone listen to this twinky
GAYKEN IS THE BIGGEST LOSER.HE'S JEALOUS BECAUSE HE KNOWS THAT ADAM CAN SING 100 TIMES BETTER THAN HIS SISSY ASS.GET A LIFE FAKEN GAYKEN YOU SUCK!!!!!!
this one just looks soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo CREEPY !
like Michael Jackson Creepy!
GROW UP GAYKEN YOU DRAMA QUEEN.MILEY OWNS YOUR ASS.
adam has more talent clay then youll ever have. your jealous and disrespectful. adam is headed for superstardom.something you know nothing about.and i dont give a shit who sleeps with who.not my business.id love to see kid rock and adam do a duet. as for you clay, you need to be quiet and try to be the kind of artist adam is which is very unlikely my friend.
I agree with MADONNAANNABE. I love American Idol…Were would any of these guys be without Simon, Ryan, and the crew… Common..life's too short..Adam and Clay are both winning idols as far as I'm concerned…I believe Adam has a promising career in front of him….Clay?? Ok..Jusst continue with your concert tours and you'll be fine. Let your child grow proud of his dad!
Re: mom2boys –
I would think with someone who's moniker is "mom2boys" that you are a parent yourself, so I find it ironic that you sit and mock Clay's choice and method of becoming a proud parent himself.
He has a right to his opinion. And, you have a right to disagree. I hate the attacking on your part. You really stoop too low to gain media attention.
Wow…he must have gotten a ton of hate mail after his rant.LOL….I will always be in Adam's corner…….I think he has a great career ahead of him and will sell millions of records….What Clay says doesn't matter…..
he needs to grow-a-pair and man-up to what he said. he said it. damage has been done. so might as well have his chin up instead of hiding his tail between his legs.
“If you didn’t want your words to be pulled apart, maybe you shouldn’t have posted it online for the entire world to see???”
Well, TO be honest (which you are not Mario) he posted this on his private message board just for his fans. He was answering a fans question about this season of Idol. I sure hope you paid to post his first blog which is still there. Somehow I think you stole it and did not pay!
Everyone has a right to their opinion!!! I too hated AL rendition of Ring of Fire and yes I too think Idol has jumped the shark!
I don't like Clay Aiken anymore. He is rude and annoying. TRUTHFULLY, HE'S STILL A NERD.
so ugly and freakyy
Pot calling kettle black Perez!!! What about your rant on Adam? HAVE YOU APOLOGISED?
At least Clay has the balls to admit he's wrong!!
You know, many people can sing, but only a few are actual artists. Taylor Swift, for example, can play the piano, guitar, and write her own songs. She is a real artist who puts creative skills into her music.
Unlike other American Idol contestants, Adam Lambert (and some others, but mostly Adam) notoriously twisted popular songs into his own version. When Clay Aiken was on AI, he just belted out with his best vocals. Aiken has a very good voice, but the music industry needs and should have more than good voices.
In conclusion, Aiken can suck it cause Adam is more than a good voice. He obviously has some creative input up his sleeve and I can't wait to hear it.
Also, we should not hate on Adam for not publicly announcing his sexual orientation. We don't know his situation. Maybe he is straight, but does not want to let down his gays fans. Or perhaps, he is gay, but does not want to hurt his family or something. Hell I don't know, but, really, does it matter? Would it make a difference? I know that there are homosexuals out there that may feel disappointed with Adam, but I bet he has his reasons. He is, after all, probably overwhelmed with all this new found fame.
Mario, Clay has a right to his own opinion. God, give him a break!
Re: Brtt –
I'm NOT mocking his choice to be a parent. If you had paid attention you would have seen that I DID call it newsworthy - grow up! Having a baby is the only reason he's been in the media lately prior to his current Lambert bashing and quasi apology. He should just stick to being a dad and leave the reviews to the professionals.
Re: Hot Putrid Monkey Shit – LOL!!!!
I wish there were more butch gays in the public eye and not effeminate gays like you and this Clay fellow. It puts decent folks off, I'm sure.
Haha, some gay men just have no backbone. He should have just stood by what he said and not apologized. I mean seriously, what's all this "wah wah I'm sorry" just because some dumb blogger doesn't like your opinion? Who cares??? Aiken WAS right the way I saw it, and he needs no excuses or apologies for his opinions. No one does. I mean, how many times has Perez apologized for being a bigoted, pushy, obnoxious f–k? None! Something to think about, huh?
Boring….who gives a shit!
who cares,whatever
LOSERS WEEPERS FINDERS KEEPERS !
so, who really gives a rat's red behind what Clay Aiken thinks? He's just another wannabe American Idol who lost, to, of all people, Ruben Studdard, another dud. He's done next to nothing. Clay has starred in Broadway. Who really cares? Whoop de doo….Spamalot. Oh, and you're famous because you came out and FINALLY said you're gay, like that was a big secret. Nobody cares. Your sexuality is not my concern. Your lack of talent, well, that is, because I would NEVER buy an album by you. I find your voice annoying.
Re: mom2boys –
Grow up? Is that the best you come back at me? I didn't say anything immature–it was constructive criticism; learn to deal with it. As far as him doing something newsworthy, having a child wasn't something he was doing to be newsworthy–it was his own personal decision he made to be a father. People who know him personally know that being a father was something he always wanted.
WOW. CLAY IS THE LAST PERSON I EXPECTED TO TRASH ADAM. I'M NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT THE "GAY" THING. IT JUST LOOKS UNPROFESSIONAL AND SHOWS POOR SPORTSMANSHIP. BAD MOVE CLAY! I'M DISAPPOINTED BUT I'LL GET OVER IT. I REALLY WANTED ADAM TO WIN…AND I ADMIT THE FACT THAT HE'S A PROUD GAY MAN IS PART OF IT. THAT'S MY RIGHT.
The gayken is sooooooooooo GAY!!!!!!!!!!!
Who cares about Gayken? Boring.
Re: dientesnuevos – this person is an idiot. you dont hate gays yet you use some of the most foul words to describe them… get a life moron
i think clay is a little bitter….he didnt win. he has no career. he tried to shock the nation and get a little more fame by coming out of the closet… however this didnt work because EVERYONE already knew. (like it wasnt obvious) Adam has more talent, and will have a career. Adam is way hotter. Clay looks a mess all the time.. He is just jealous.
Ugh! I can't stand Clay Aiken. His 15 minutes have gone to his head and he just won't STFU! Stop giving him attention, Perez. He doesn't deserve it! In another couple of years no one will even know who the fuck he is anymore.
What an idiot! Besides, what's up with all the dark hair dye? He's starting to look old and gross.
HES F-ING RUDE!! NOW HE REALIZES THEBACKLASH OF HIS WORDS, TOO LITTLE TOO LATE, NOT GOOD TO CUT PPL DOWN TO MAKE URSELLF FEEL BETTER.
Hey Clay, go back to your hole somewhere you little whimpy mole. You never have been and never will be famous or iiked by the public.
Always hated him from all the way back when this a… hole was a contestant!!! I thought he was arrogant and full of himself back then and still is!!!
