Star Magazine Gives OMWH 3/4

Star Magazine published a review of "On My Way Here", reports the CH's ellenpoppy:

Star Magazine has reviewed the CD and given it 3 stars out of 4. The review's toward the back, in case anyone wants to check it out at her local newstand and maybe happen to leave the page open when putting it back. It's the new issue, I believe with "Britney's New Bikini Body" on the cover; we just received it today, but it will be on most newsstands tomorrow or Friday.

I'm definitely paraphrasing from memory here. I don't remember if "American Idol runner-up" was mentioned, but the AI reference was there with the mention to Ruben.

Quote:
Clay Aiken has often been the butt of jokes, but he has proven that he has staying power. (Looking at you, Ruben Studdard.)

His new CD is about [can't do it justice here because I just can't remember enough... something about the journey, adulthood... a positive mention, what Clay has said the CD is about, nothing negative at all]. The adult contemporary songs have two particular standouts in As Long As We're Here and the more upbeat Falling.

3 out of 4 stars, people. Top of the page review, good placement. Covered what Clay has said the CD is about. Targeted two songs as standouts. Pointed out that he's become a career artist.

This, in a tabloid publication that hasn't been all that kind to him.

I'm definitely sensing a change this time around.
