Clay Aiken
Gay Clay Aiken is lending his support to a gay rights rally in North Carolina. The former American Idol singer is delivering a speech at the event this weekend. Clay, who came out of the closet in 2008, will join the activists at the Human Rights Campaign Carolinas gala in his hometown of Raleigh. But Clay is snubbing the pre-prepared speech written for him by the protest organizers because it takes aim at former U.S. president George W. Bush. Instead, the singer has come up with his own words to deliver at Saturday’s rally. He says, "I don’t feel like this is the place to be horribly politically charged and bash people and talk about the wrongs that have been done. My goal is to be hopeful, that it’s time for everyone to have equal rights." Lesbian actress Meredith Baxter, who previously starred on the hit television show Family Ties, will also make an appearance at the event. She declared her sexuality in a magazine expose last year.Editors Extra: We just love how these people deny they are gay for so many years and then when it's safe for them, they come out of the closet. All the gays that fought for equal rights and these people stood silent, not saying a word. Now that being gay is in, and we are getting rights, they come flying out of their closet like they were helping all the time. And the thing that sucks, is the gay community accepts them and makes them icons, when they did nothing but deny being gay, like it was a disease. Shame on these stars and shame on the homosexual community that welcomes them with open arms!

Why didn't you say that Meredith Baxter should go back in the closet too. She came out late in life.
Do you say the same about Neil Patrick Harris and David Hyde Pierce?? If not, why not.......I mean, they didn't follow your timeline.
You are a snob and a bully. Put yourself on the line in front of the world.
When Clay was interviewed just after he came out, he said that the first time he took the stage at Spamalot after he came out, he expected to be booed. But, of course a perfect person like you wouldn't understand that.
Being gay is not always easy and each individual should do what is right for themselves. Because you don't like someone, you do a disservice to the LGBT community.
So, with your comments, you are telling me that there is no future for gay people. They are never forgiven for going through a difficult time in their lives. You are saying that even if they do wonderful things, they are lost!!
When did it become popular to be gay?? If given the choice, would someone choose to be gay ?? I doubt it.........my son is gay and lives a happy life, but everything would be easier for him if he was not gay. Thank goodness he doesn't know anyone like you who is prejudiced and uncaring.
I guess you must have had not one bit of confusion or concern when you were growing up. Well, good for perfect you.

OK.....trying to understand. Because a person grew up in an very conservative Baptist family and was taught that being gay was wrong.....they were conflicted.....they were taught that they had a choice....but as they got out into another environment, learned that this was crap.......they don't say anything for a year because they know their loved ones will not support them....they are in the public arena and are asked over and over and over, but say its none of your business because they have not come out to their mother or family...but with support from friends, finally come out and embrace who they are........so this person has nothing to say about being gay. Don't you think that this person might be just the right person to counsel others who had trouble??
What you are saying is that this person is dammed for life now...even if they do good things. I'm sorry......I just can't believe that.
You are correct. It would be wonderful if all gays were able to come out quickly and not be conflicted. However, for the majority of gays, this doesn't happen.
You have no idea what this young man has gone through. You assume things that you know nothing about. I agree that LGBT members should be proud of who they are and support others that need the support.
Who are you helping by not excepting a gay man?
At what age did you come out?? From what you have written you had a horrible childhood.
At what point do we realize that each person is there own and each person will arrive where they belong in their own way. That is not bad. That is growing and learning.
