Tidbits 5/31

• New Times: 'Some bad day 30 years from now, a musical about the first decade of the 21st century will undoubtedly highlight all of the singles produced by American Idol winners. That's what I mean. Sure, there might be a few sad reflections thrown in about terrorism and war, but mostly it will be cheery, like, "Remember back in 2009 when we listened to iPods and still had the right to vote?" and then they'll sing a memorial duet to honor Clay Aiken and Celine Dion.'
• American Idol PR about Taylor Hick's signing to Arista Records... "The 29 year old Alabama native, that captured the hearts of millions of viewers by pouring heart and soul into every performance, joins the ranks of other idols that have gone on to have outstanding music careers under the guidance of Davis. Previous Idol winners and runner ups have sold a staggering 33 million records which includes music from Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken, Fantasia, Carrie Underwood, Ruben Studdard and Bo Bice."
• Raleigh News & Observer: Athlete of the week 'dislikes' Clay Aiken. (hey... why should we care?)
• Fantastic Beavers On Idol article on Clay's AI appearance last week... "no matter what he changes on the outside, the inside is always gracious, admirable, compassionate and chivalrous... that night Clay showed the world how to treat someone who is different. He was kindly and generous with the so-called 'Aiken wannabe'."

• Chron.com blog about the new Clay... (check out the comments too!)..."Oh, no, the Clay Aiken lookalike is going to sing. I guess he's the new William Hung, right? And there's CLAY AIKEN! Could this be any weirder? Or something. Clay's hair is pretty, though. Lookalike is about the have a heart attack."
• A reminder... please vote for Clay on AOL's Best Idol poll. Clay is STILL stuck in 4th place!
