Does anyone know how much longer Clay will be appearing in Spamalot? I have discussed with some friends maybe doing a long weekend trip to NYC and going to see Clay, but with my luck I would end up going the week after his gig ended. I tried to find it on the internet but it would only bring me to the site to buy tickets - there was no info on how much longer Clay would appear in Spamalot.

You can hear Clay's new single here: {guptamedia.com/clayaiken} His new cd will be out May 6. I like the single.

Hi Kitty, I went to Target at lunch time to pick up the new CD. Have only had a chance to listen to it twice, but I LOVE it. Clay has really matured, nice to hear a full collection of songs that are meaningful and not silly. My favorites right from the first listen are: On My Way Here Something About Us Where I Draw the Line The Real Me Sacrificial Love (this one actually moved me to tears)

I haven't bought it yet! Normally I would have rushed out and gotten it right away. But with Mother's Day coming, I told DD to get it for me. Glad to hear it's good! (Like I had any doubt.) And the stars must have been aligned, becuase Neil Diamond also put out a new album. I hope I get both for Mother's day!

There are video's with the imperfect (live) versions of the songs at AOL.com. I can get a link if anyone can't find it. I do love the video for "something about us".

Are they free or something you have to buy? I'm really enjoying the new CD. I like tracks 1,6,8, and 9 a lot. I think 9 is my favorite.

I think its probably true since they have been friends for several years. It doesn't bother me at all. Its probably the only way he'll ever be a father.

a lady on my staff is a huge fan, she is over 50 and has his pics on her cube walls. She is very defensive of him...dont even hint to her he may be gay!...so I was curious and wanted to know how fans felt about this so I dont offend her with a sly comment. Thx!

My best friend's mom is a Claymate. She follows him everywhere. Has his picture everywhere. My friend hates it. LOL I saw her on Friday and was going to ask her what she thought but I didn't bring it up and neither did she. Next time I will.

I adore Clay (and think he's likely batting for the other team but I don't really care about that) and I am tickled pink for him! Also for her! I know what's it like to want to parent and not be able to find a suitable mate, so good for her for going forward, and good for him for agreeing to do this. Parenthood is such an amazing thing and I hope they both cherish it. Yay Clay! (and I posted in the gossip thread that If I'd known he was donating I would of had a second child. LOL)

LOL Brenda. Is he going to help raise this kid? 50 yrs old seems a little late to have baby

Pamy, I was wondering about the age as well. I know that I sure wouldn't want to be pregnant now. But then again, I already have kids maybe I would feel differently if I didn't.

I already feel too old to have another child at 39++, so yes, to me, 50 is too old. But since she's loaded, she will be able to hire help. The thing that worries me with older parents is that they'll die before the child has even reached adulthood. But I guess that's something that all parents worry about -- leaving our children behind. I had heard that Clay would be involved with the child, but to what extent who knows. I'm wondering when this baby is due?

I had my daughter when I was 38 (almost 39). And yes, the fear of dying before your child reaches full age is one I face...but let's face it...nobody is guaranteed to live beyond the next moment in time. I will be in my late 50s when my daughter graduates from high school and will be in my mid-60s when she (hopefully) graduates from college. I just think of it as I had my so-called "golden years" in my 20s and 30s when many other people my age were raising their children. Basically you do what you have to do, right? And believe me, I wouldn't trade for my beloved only child.

I was 35 when DD was born and I have those fears of not living long enough to see grand kids. If I had been 50, those fears would be very, very real. Even with a normal life span of... 75? Her child would only be 25. Scary. But, yes, we never do know. A big truck can find you when you're 45. Not saying women at 50 shouldn't have children, just that there are those kinds of issues to think about. I do encourage women not to wait until they are 40+ to start trying for kids, but sometimes life just doesn't work out that way.

My mom was 40 when she had my sister, her fourth child. She's 83 now. I was in my 20s when I had my two kids. I am 50 now and going through menopause. I would not want to have a child now.

I think it would be difficult on any 50 year old's body to go through pregnancy and delivery. Then again, what do I know? Maybe if I hadn't had three children, my body would be less achy and menopausal. On another topic, I really would like to see Clay try another hairstyle right away. LOL!

I was 33 when I had Dylan so I am usually one of the older parents. I cant imagine being almost 20 yrs older and having him though! Roxip, I am like you, I had my fun years in my 20s and feel I had Dylan at the right age, sometimes I wish I had him younger cuz I had more energy in my early 30s but I just push harder now OT, I like Clay's hair. I dont know why they felt they had to announce he fathered this child, no one would have known if they didnt. They coulda said she used sperm bank.

Pamy, in this day and age, people find everything out anymore. They probably thought it would be better to lay it all on the table themselves instead of it coming out later and an even bigger thing be made out of it.

True Mamie, remember all the broo-ha-ha when it was revealed that Crosby was the bio father of that one couples children (I can't remember her name -- she's also a singer). At least if they let the media have their fun with it now, when the child is old enough to know what's going on it will be old news. I don't like Clay's hair much either and I really don't like what he did to his teeth. But he's still so darn witty I could just eat him up.
