Okay, so I’m a day late bringing this topic to the table but as you all know, I was all gooey (yep, said it) over Andrew McCarthy yesterday and with the kids acting up and my need and duty to report on their misbehavior to you, I’m just now getting around to addressing this. But…I think we need to talk about it.
So we all know Clay Aiken came out yesterday, right? Yawn….big shocker.
Now, I don’t know about y’all but I sort of saw this on the horizon. Call me crazy.
First there was this.
…which to me screams Barry Manillow who has not come out of the closet but whatever. (BTW?…I totally went to that concert and rocked out with my cousin and her 70 somethin’ year old mother with our glow sticks….”Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl, with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there….at the Copa!…Copacabanna”…)
Then there was this.
Ok, I have to say here, I have semi permanent eyelash extentions (yes, I’m that vain…and? they RAWK) but I can’t get myself to look anywhere near that pretty.
So came to me as a big surprise yesterday when two people in this great nation of ours a.) cared and b.) were shocked. First, the editor of the ever on top of it People Magazine who thought this may be a headline grabber in some way. And this fan, who said this on some Clay Aiken fan page I have no idea how I found myself on last night (please don’t hold it against me…).
“This is a gut wrenching day for The ClayNation. Somebody wake me up, I hope its a dream. “ said the ClayMate.
Someone send help to the ClayNation folks, I’ll wait. How could you not see this one coming? (stop it…that’s totally not what I meant)
Two things here. First of all? Gay is okay. I’m happy the guy has embraced his lifestyle…really. And? He should have the right to marry. Now, give me a second while I hop off my political soap box. Okay…safely off. But really, these gals who thought he was fair game? Need to have their eyes checked or their gaydar adjusted. Did this chick see his baby mamma??? Just sayin’.
And now a word from the editor: Mary Anne does not actually follow Clay Aiken, Clay Nation or even Spamalot….though she’d like to see it someday. Mary Anne also insists that you do not interpret this post as a leaning towards any political party, because she really doesn’t care which way you lean. Be the champion of your own desitiny. Mary Anne would also like you to know that she adores all gay people…pretty and not…and has the friends to prove it. So back down on the comments. But you should feel free to comment on those who didn’t see it comin’. (yep, go there friends, it’s the only thing that may wake the ClayNation up.)
PS…I hate his music.

SHOCKER. For sure. I guess I have to cross him off my celebrity list.
But what I really want to know is….
ALL THE DETAILS ON SEMI-PERMANENT EYELASHES!! Because mine are stumpy. And not of the curling variety. I need help.
Heather, they rock. I’ll email you a link. In a nutshell, I look like Bambi when I get up…well, you know, without the long willowy legs or fur. You get the picture.
OK you are the ONLY person I know who loves Andrew McCarthy like I do. True story: I loved him so much when I met my husband-to-be and he gave me lots of s*%# for loving him when we were watching Pretty in Pink one day. Anywho, I was going on and on about how much i loved Andrew McCarthy to one of my co-workers and how I was going to leave my BF for him once I met him. My Co-worker gave me a super strange look. As you know, I am very loud and most of the office heard about my crush and devotion to marry him and dump my bf immediately if given the opportunity. So it turns out that Andrew’s brother- Peter McCarthy, was standing there and so everyone thought I was saying it so Peter would introduce me. Needless to say, to this day Peter thinks im a stalker freak and never introduced me so I had to marry the bf. I was this close….
I for one was shocked and dismayed at this news. From this point on I refuse to buy any albums or listen to any songs on the radio by Clay Aiken.
OK, so I never listened to his music anyway because it’s effing AWFUL. But this “announcement” just supports my ant-Clay stance. Not anti-Gay. I love the gays. Just anti-Clay. ‘Cause he sucks.
I would have been shocked had they told me he wasn’t. I just assumed (correctly it turns out) that it was not mistaken. Oh well, whatever trips his trigger.
I’m stunned. Really.
NOT.
Clay Gay Today? Okay. Wasn’t like it was a toss-up for me or anything. Lindsay Lohan on the other hand, different story, but it seems to be working out for her.
And yes, Lipstick Jungle was good – I’m a sucker for good writing. I am a little disappointed they killed off Nico’s husband. That was the cheap way out.
That said you won’t see me on the cover of People with any shocking announcements. Officially speaking, I’m just taking an interest in some of the things my wife enjoys. End quote.
Mary Anne you’re fantastic!!!
This is great.
Say it isn’t so! Why must you spread such a vile story. You want us all to believe in your writings yet you have an entry like this?! You go on to elude that Barry Mannilow is gay?! Blasphemy! Who are you and have you gone mad?! What are you going to tell us next that George Michael is gay or that Ricky Martin may be bi-curious?!
These men are not gay. I can personally can speak to their love interest.
Sincerly,
Barney Frank
Wait – semi-permanent eyelash extensions? Forget Clay, I want to hear about that!! And where I can get them!
Remember that song he had about being invisible? It was kind of stalkery. Have you ever seen/heard Kathy Griffin scewer Clay? Perhaps he had us all fooled (me not included) because he really isn’t in gay shape. If he bulked up, toned up, shut up maybe we’d believe him.
Did you know that he covered “When Doves Cry” by Prince. I would give it all up to see that Hot. Red. Headed. Mess.
Yeah, hi. It’s totally me again. All you ads are about eyelash extensions and special mascaras. I’ve got to get me some.
You can blame the late-night excursions to the ClayNation on heavy binge drinking. We’ll all forgive you.
You have to hook me up with some of those extensions though. Because not doing THAT I won’t forgive.
When I heard this news, I yawned, got up off the couch, and went to look outside to see if pigs were flying or frogs were raining from the sky. I mean, HOW COULD THIS BE?!
Heh…
What a shocker!! You gotta love Google for putting the ad up for Barry Manilow ringtones! Too funny.
I saw that quote by the “claymate” also. One has to assume that these are the women who end up with gay husbands who are politicians.
Oh, get real!! Did anyone ever think he wasn’t gay??
LOL.. I was really thinking this was a riot when he was on GMA.
I’m glad he finally came outta the closet..
I have been tellin him he was gay since the Stars show… hahahaha.
