David Foster's Star Search Website Lists Clay as Judge

Clay is now listed on the David Foster Star Search Website as a celebrity judge. Clay's CD picture is included, as well as a great writeup about him, as follows:

Clay Aiken’s awards and achievements make for a very long list: multi-platinum recording artist, goodwill ambassador for UNICEF, best selling author and advocate for individuals with disabilities through his Bubel/Aiken Foundation.

Some might call this overachievement. For Aiken this has become standard. Following his introduction to the American public, he became the first artist in history to have his premiere single debut at #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

His first full length album followed suit, also debuting at #1. His 2004 book, “Learning To Sing: Hearing the music in your life”, went to #2 on the New York Times Bestsellers list, while “Merry Christmas, With Love”, his holiday album, became the fastest selling holiday album ever. His third album “A Thousand Different Ways” will be in stores on September 19th 2006. Clay Aiken was born November 30, 1978 in Raleigh, NC. He graduated from the University of North Carolina in December 2003.
I love that Clay's picture and information is the first listed at the very top of the page. Note also that publicity about the upcoming release is also included. What I'd give to be there watching Clay as a judge for Foster's Star Search. Baby Face and Daisy Fuentes are also celebrity judges.

Note that there is a "Gallery and Video" section of the website, so possibly pictures and/or videos of Clay will be available there after the Star Search is over.

The David Foster Foundation is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. According to his website, the foundation "exists to provide financial and emotional support to families of British Columbian children who are in need of life saving organ transplants. The Foundation has helped over 255 across Western Canada families in its 20 years of operation and is now expanding to provide support across Canada." This sounds just like something Clay would want to be involved in, as making a difference in children's lives is very close to his heart.

Clay will be judging the contest as well as performing during Mr. Foster's gala to be held on September 9 and 10 at the River Rock Casino in Richmond, BC, Canada. -- More information.
