Thoughts on CD Release Party & The View
My CD release party
So, I went to the CD release party here in my home state. It was held at 5 'N Diner and the main coordinator was Renee4Clay.
Check in was from 8-8:30, but I was a little late due to something at my school that I had to attend. My mom, her friend, and I drove down there after my school open house and we got seated. My mom's friend, Emily and I got goody bags and I got a pin.
There were a few games going on. There was "Pin the Kiss on Clay" and a hula-hoop contest, while I was there. I tried the hula-hoop contest, but I failed miserably. It was a little embarrassing, but fun at the same time. This little girl ended up winning this large poster sized picture of the cover shot of Clay's CD. It was definitely a thud-worthy prize.
Then, as we all got ready to go to the Warehouse, we had to grab a balloon. Each balloon had a number attached for a door prize that we could collect at the Warehouse. Emily and I got magnets. My mom got a 45 record of "Invisible" and "Measure of a Man." It was pretty sweeeeeeeet!
Then Mom and Emily purchased a CD, and we listened to mine in the car on the way home....It is wonderful! My favorite track so far is "Everything I Have." The lyrics are a little sad, but they are beautiful nonetheless. Clay’s voice also sound AMAZING on this track.
I got home around 2:00 AM, and I was completely exhausted. I wore my fan club shirt to the school the next day. It was really sad, because I had to take a lot of crap for it from non-Clay fans...Ugh! It's quite frustrating, but I will never get up on OMC. He's worth all the criticism though.
Comments on The View interview
I pretty much thought this interview ROCKED! It was a really nice thing to see after the GMA interview. As you have probably heard or seen, the GMA interview wasn't the nicest yet. The interviewer caught Clay off guard and asked him really intimate questions. It made me really sad for him. It’s horrible that he has to keep putting up with this crap from the media.
So, seeing The View was a nice change. I loved, first of all, how Rosie introduced him as "Cutie Patooti." Then, he genuinely seemed comfortable there. It was a little hard to hear everything that was going on, but what can you expect when you have four ladies interviewing one, hot guy. ;)
Then it was really nice to hear Rosie interview Clay about his medication and admit that she was on stuff too. It was also great to hear how she compared his medication to eyeglass prescriptions saying "people just have to find what is right for them." She also told him how she was proud of him and admired him. It was so nice. She was such a sweetie...
I want to give Rosie a hug for that interview and then smack Diane Sawyer for how she caught Clay off guard and seemed to make him uncomfortable in her GMA interview.
