Clay Aiken at 29th annual Gay & Lesbian Film Festival

So proud that Clay Aiken is representing for gays and lesbians. It took a few years and fans now have some battle scars from defending Clay from rumors through the years -- but I think this is what is best. He looks so happy now.

Will he ever record again?
