Tidbits 7/3

24 hours left!

• Ellen DeGeneres mentions Clay on her show Ellen today... it's actually a repeat, but here it is again from kimmer44 if you missed it the first time we reported it in April:

  Well, Ellen is touring a 29 million dollar house in Bel Air and she is trying to guess who lives there and she mentions Elton John, Rod Stewart, Avril Lavigne and then she says Clay Aiken. The real estate person says no to all of the above but it was so cool that she mentions Clay!
  

• Tour mentions ... just over 24 hours left folks!
  
• Houstonist -

  Clay Aiken performs with the Houston Symphony (we'll keep our opinions to ourselves this time).
  
  Friday
  • Clay Aiken w/ The Houston Symphony – pop | 7:30 p.m. at Jones Hall

• Student Operated Press - 14 year old Barry Harris the "next Clay Aiken"?

  Mary Hart: (Entertainment Tonight) "Could this be the next Clay Aiken?"

• East Valely Tribune - random mention...

  2. Tim skips the Mixed Martial Arts pay-per-view to take Karen on a blind date. He arrives to find her apartment covered with Clay Aiken photographs. Calculate, in seconds, the duration of this relationship.

• Jemock at Taking A Moment tells us "how to survive a Clay Aiken meet and greet" ... we all probably need a reminder anyhow, since Clay hasn't done one since 2005 ... funny read -

  Anyway, each meet and greet is a unique experience—no two are alike, and there’s no way to know what to expect. But I’ve come up with some generic answers, just in case your brain decides to stay in the hotel room while your body is magically and mystically drawn to Will-Call for the preciousss—a meet and greet entrance sticker. Oooooooh. Pretty pretty.

• Taking A Moment - Jemock also posted another one of her "voclaybulary builder" posts... do you know what "ultracrepidarianism" is?
