Title: Clay Aiken comes out
Post by: ♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇 on September 23, 2008, 05:30:23 PM
Don't know where to put this, but since he's allegedly a singer, this is a good spot as any.

Anybody who is surprised, raise your hand.


No hands? That's what I thought.

I'm sure it's not the least surprising news ever...but I can't think of less surprising news off the top of my head. But I say good for him: having to be "on" all the time, acting to be something you're not, can't be any way to live.

Exactly. I never understood why he didn't come forward sooner. I mean, he's in the music industry, which is probably the least homophobic career path he could've chosen.

This is about as surprising as hearing about Liberace, or Elton John, or Andy Dick coming out of the closet.

Andy Dick is gay?!
Well, technically...
Quote
Dick is openly bisexual. He is currently dating model Taylor Adams. He said:
It makes other people sensitive. Straight people say, "C'mon, you know you're just gay," and gay people say, "C'mon, you know you're just gay," and everybody just wants to make me gay! There is such a thing as bisexual. People want black and white. And I enjoy being bisexual. I enjoy being with men and I enjoy being with women, but tonight I will be with one of each and I'll be on the outside on the sidelines watching, having fun. Something happened to me sexually when I was a child that tweaked my reality.[7]
From 1986 to 1990, he was married to Ivone Kowalczyk, with whom he has a son, Lucas (b. 1988). He also has a son, Jacob (b. 1994), and a daughter, Meg (b. 1997), from his relationship with Lina Sved.
He never met his birth father as a child. Recently, he has started talking to his birth father over the phone as well as his biological half-sister.[8]
Andy was said to have a well-publicized fling with former UK boybander, Traxx Neutron

Andy Dick reminds me of the person who said "I'm bisexual when I'm drunk" :p

You know, I highly recommend checking youtube for combinations of the words Andy Dick and "drink thrown on him". It's pretty amusing. That guy has a gift for being splashed with drinks, if nothing else. Actually, no "if" required: nothing else.

Does anybody else read this news and say "Who?"
