| | Clay Aiken comes out: ‘Yes, I’m gay’
‘American Idol’ runner-up finally confirms what many people already knew
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Clay Aiken is finally confirming what many people already knew: He’s gay.
The cover of the latest People magazine shows Aiken holding his infant son, Parker Foster Aiken, with the headline: “Yes, I’m Gay.” The cover also has the quote: “I cannot raise a child to lie or hide things.”
The magazine has an interview with Aiken and confirmed that he was on the cover but refused to release the article to The Associated Press until Wednesday.
The baby’s mother is Aiken’s friend and record producer Jaymes Foster.
Aiken, who gained fame as the runner-up on “American Idol” in 2003, rarely addressed the frequent rumors about his sexuality. In an interview with The Associated Press two years ago, he said: “I don’t really feel like I have anybody to answer to but myself and God and the people I love.”
The multiplatinum singer recently released the CD “On My Way Here” and made his Broadway debut this spring in “Monty Python’s Spamalot.” 
not impressed......
