• BroadwaySpace.com - In the forum section, a thread was started with this question, "I heard Clay Aiken was joining the cast of Spamalot! What's your reaction in hearing this news?" Go to this site and click "Share". There is a 12-page thread about Clay being in Spamalot. Everything I've read seems positive.
• Asbury Park Press - Chris Daughtry article -

  The legendary Davis, the head of RCA Records, has had huge success in signing other "Idol" winners, including Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken and Fantasia Burrino. Several months after that defining moment on "Idol" in May 2006, both Daughtry and Davis have come out smelling like the proverbial rose. Daughtry's self-titled first CD was released in November 2006 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart; by mid-December 2006, it was certified platinum for 1 million in sales.

• Carolina On My Mind - Michigan Clay fans donate 1200 books to local libraries, schools as a birthday present for Clay
• ClayKat - Clay nation opens their wallets and hearts in this season of giving -

  It's an endless circle of giving in the Clay nation: Clay has given - and continues to give - so much to us, his fans. He gives to the community (through, among other things, the Bubel-Aiken Foundation) and to the world (through UNICEF and of course, his voice). He makes us want to be better people, so we give to our communities, to him, to each other - among other things, through initiatives such as the two described above. What can be better than that? In my opinion, life does not get any better than in moments such as those, in love and solidarity and tribute given in such beautiful ways.
  
  What a tremendous way to start off the Christmas season!
