Clay Fanclub Announces Renewal Info, New Contest; "Album title has been chosen"

The Official Clay Aiken Fanclub recently celebrated their 1st anniversairy. Many members have been wondering about their memberships which were set to expire on June 28, 2006. The fanclub addressed this issue and started a new "New Album Name Acronym" contest for its members. In the below post, the fanclub announces that the contest will close on July 12. They also said that the album's title has already been decided on and that it is only 4 words long (like "Measure of a Man" and "Merry Christmas With Love"). This has caused speculation on the boards about whether the official album title will be announced on July 13 or shortly thereafter.

The winner will receive: a signed copy of the new CD once it has been released, a one-year fanclub membership renewal, and a phone call from Clay himself!

06/30/06 / Clay Aiken Fan Club Renewals and a New Contest!
We're well aware that everyone is anxiously awaiting news on renewals and Year 2 of the Clay Aiken Fan Club. We value your participation in this community, and we want you to rest assured that access to the fan club will not expire for any member before September 1, 2006. More information regarding Year 2 of the Clay Aiken Official Fan Club and renewals will be available in the coming weeks, but for now enjoy the summer with no stress!

And now for the new OFC contest...

The NANA (New Album Name Acronym) Contest

We know you're all dying to hear some news on the new album, however, we thought it'd be more fun to get some album news out of you first!

Judging from the Clay Aiken pun contest, we already know just how cre"clay"tive you can be, so this time around we're putting your letters to the test because it's acronym time!

The album title has been chosen, but we can't give it away just yet. So, while you're waiting to find out what the name will be, Clay wants you to take your best shot and guess! We don't want you to guess the entire name, just the initial letters that make up the name -- an acronym if you will.

An acronym you say? A word formed from the initial letters of a name. You've already come up with quite a few Clay related acronyms on your own:

MOAM - Measure of a Man
JBT - Juke Box Tour
IWCY - I Will Carry You
MDYK - Mary Did You Know
DLTSGDOM - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me

This time Clay wants you to guess what the acronym for his new album will be!

The possibilities would be endless if we didn't give you any clues, but we're not that tough so we've narrowed it down to 456,976 possible acronyms. How'd we come to that? Well, here's you're clue: The title for the new album is comprised of just four (4) words.

Need an example? If you think the new album name is "Clay Aiken Sings Songs," then your acronym would be "CASS."

Make sure to check out the "Contests" section of the fan club for details on how you can participate in this contest. This contest starts NOW and ends on July 12th, so be sure to get your entries in ASAP!
