My dad was the first person to break the news to me when I came home from an errand this evening. As soon as the news reached my ears, the blood drained from my face and a literal rush of shock surged through my body. My face fell. For a few milliseconds I felt...nothing. Not long after that, I shut myself up in my room and wept silently, my heart breaking. This has all happened during a rough time in my life so that makes it all the more painful for me.

I just...I don't know what to do. I'll probably never hear the end of it from my dad. Part of me still thinks this is all a dream, yet the whole of me knows it isn't. I will be withdrawing any financial support of him, as my beliefs do not condone his lifestyle. However, I will continue to pray for him and await further details on the situation.

Wow.
I think my favorite part is "...and await further details on the situation." Because this is a serious situation, people, and it needs to be monitored.

Clay Aiken Left 'Speechless' By Supportive Fans

By Emmet Sullivan

Originally posted Wednesday September 24, 2008 02:10 PM EDT

As fans of Clay Aiken react to the news that he is gay, the singer himself has written about his gratitude he feels about the support he's received so far.

"We'll 'talk' more later," Aiken, 29, writes on his Web site's message board. "but, suffice it to say, for the first time in recent memory, I am speechless. I'm so proud to know and love all of you."

He adds, "My family is so much larger than Parker, Jaymes, mom, Brett, etc. It extends to each of you. And I couldn't be more blessed."

Aiken posted the message Tuesday night after a performance of Broadway's Monty Python's Spamalot, where he has resumed the role of Sir Robin. Fans flocked to the stage door after the show to see the star, but Aiken ducked out a different exit.

Gay groups applauded Aiken on coming out, while fan reaction across the Web has been one of both surprise but support.

As of midday Wednesday, the thread on clayonline.com had more than 2,200 messages, with many saying, "I will always love and support him no matter what. His sexual orientation makes no difference to me."

Some Mixed Reactions
Still, a few "Claymates" are taking the news hard. "I'm really struggling with this one," writes one fan on claymaniacs.com. A poster on clayaiken.com writes, "I'm only concerned that for those like me who will still support him no matter what may have some difficulty reconciling that he wasn't straight forward to begin with."

From the Clay Board, strollynn63 writes, "This is a gut wrenching day for The ClayNation. Somebody wake me up, I hope it's a dream," while NJ4ClayA admits, "I still love to hear him sing but I also feel he has now become like a Michael Jackson and it's a bit too weird!"

Aiken told PEOPLE he understands some fans may not react well. "[I want] to let people know that I've never intended to lie to anybody at all," he said. "But if they leave, I don't want them to leave hating me."

What strikes me as strange is where he says he just came out to his mom FOUR years ago.....and she was shocked and devastated? No wonder it took him this long to come out. What kind of dysfunctional family did he come from that it took him until he was almost forty and so totally obviously GAE that when he tells his mom she was surprised? I can see a normal family where the mom says, well, honey, we always knew and it's okay..........or a really functional family would have encouraged him to come out years ago........but his mom was shocked? Just no wonder, no wonder. Now I just feel bad for him. Sort of.

I think he was basically ignored by his birth father, abused by his step-father, and his mom just let it all happen so yeah, I think he's had a fucked up life.

The reaction of the bible-thumper fans is hilarious.

How could they not know? How could anyone not know? The only person that displays more gay signals is Jack from Will and Grace.

ZOMG. I just heard the shocking news. (Shocking that he admitted it) I have sooooo much to catch up on, but I have to ask - have any youtube videos of Claymate suicides surfaced yet?

I think many will realize tomorrow that he is saying he is Happy = Gay. Happy about his new son, Parker. Not that he likes men.

We need to go to the Clay boards and say that is what

YES I'M GAY means to Clay, that he's straight but happy since gay means happy.

Announce that it's all been a cruel hoax! He actually eats pussy!
hahahahahhaa!

I'm very relieved that he finally did this. And the fans who can't hack it are just going to have to grow up.

I prayed really hard from my precious Clay last night, is he straight again yet? Please tell me the gay is gone.

I prayed that he'd find a pretty young boytoy with no gag reflex and an exhibitionist streak a mile wild. Did it work yet?

This is what I meant in a post I made that said I had mixed feelings. I can never get down on someone for finally coming out. It's a personal journey for every single gay person. Only that person can decide when is the right time. However, Clay is in a different situation since he has been in the public eye. I understand the hesitation, but at the same time, it has been demoralizing seeing someone who, let's be honest, is obviously gay constantly deny it. For younger people, it may only cement the idea that if he is gay (this is before he came out), there's something wrong with that. I understand it had to be tough when he was asked since Idol, but it's easy to see both sides. On one hand, congrats on finally being honest. On the other, why should I support you when you denied it for so long and made it seem that there was something wrong?

He's still gay, so you have failed. I will now pray for you in hopes that your failure will be forgiven. Indeed, we have all failed. But Clay is the one who led us astray, so it is he who has to answer in the end.

Maybe Clay can go on DWTS and Benji can be his partner.

Let's go ask Sarah Palin what we should do . . .

I tried to call goddess Palin yesterday but she was busy answering the prayers of other, more desperate Clay worshipers.

Has anyone collected all the posts at Sucks from idiots denying he's gay just to rub it back in their faces? Some of them really deserve it, you know.
