Clay Aiken Channels Mother Teresa

Clay Aiken Channels Mother Teresa

Clay Aiken and a mystery male take a walk together in Los Angeles on Tuesday (May 12).

The 30-year-old former American Idol contestant just blogged a quote from Mother Teresa: “People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. / If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. / If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway. / If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway. / What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway. / If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. / The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. / Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”

There are no ‘ugly’ people John, only ugly behavior.

Clay may not be a traditionally “handsome” man, but he is beautiful in many ways. It makes me happy for him that he is able to ignore much of the ugliness in today’s society. The quotes from Mother Teresa explain it perfectly.

I love Mother Theresa.
I love Mother Theresa’s quote.
I love that Clay Aiken quoted Mother Theresa on his blog.
…but I don’t really love Clay Aiken.

…The Diva act he played on Kelly Rippa when he substituted for Regis on that morning show kinda turned me off of him….I think he was really ungentlemanly toward her. Just my opinion.

Sometimes people hide behind respected martyr’s and their sayings in order to appear less superficial. This may be one of those times.

What great pictures of Clay. He is a great guy and a good performer. I find it amusing that people that don’t like Clay take the time to visit an article on Clay and even more time to post……agenda?? absolutely!!

Clay looks good and I love his quote.

Oh, boy. Clay Aiken’s publicist is hard at work, trying to make him look angelic. He quotes Mother Teresa at his fan club site, but in the PUBLIC part, so even non-members can read it, then it’s arranged for him to “just happen to be spotted by paparazzi,” who don’t give a hoot about him anymore, so that he can “be seen” and his Mother Teresa quote can be read by even more people. What a joke. People who know about Clay Aiken know that he “blogs” Biblical quotes and other quotes like the aforementioned Mother Teresa one when he wants to make himself look virtuous, especially after he’s attracted some negative publicity, or when he knows something negative is going to be written about him. He quoted a Bible Verse in his blog right before the article came out in which he was accused of having gay sex with somebody. He’s just so predictable. Clay Aiken might fool people who don’t know his history, but he has lost MANY, MANY fans who found out what a fraud he is, even some of his most loyal ones who worked REALLY hard supporting him. People do NOT like being lied to and manipulated. He can quote Mother Teresa all he wants and try to make people believe he lives her words, but he absolutely does NOT. Don’t be fooled by this fraud.

Clay is an OK guy. He has done more good than most celebs. AND, he has taken more crap than he deserves.

If you don’t like his music, thats OK. Music is subjective. But why the need to say ugly things. You look like an ass when you do that.

Great to see Clay out and about. Seems like a good person. I have heard a lot about his charity work and that he is “hands-on” in raising money for different causes.

I always laugh when I see the over the top weirdos who follow Clay around on the internet, trying hard to make him look bad. I wonder what their point is? They are so over the top that it is unbelievable.

OMFG, Clay Aiken, a gay man, had gay sex! CIL #15, you sound like a real dolt!

I love him. He’s just too cute.

Not sure of the point of the pictures, but its good to know that Clay is out and about living his life.
I heard that his performance Saturday night in Las Vegas was good. He got a standing ovation.
POST #15 is really funny. Speaking of over the top.

Well, I’m gay & I think Clay’s cuter than the guy he’s with. In fact, he’s been getting a lot better looking in the pics I’ve seen of him lately. It’s either that I’m noticing him more now that he’s out or he’s just growing into a mature, handsome guy, as most dudes do. He looks a lot better now than that skinny kid on Idol. So what if he joked around with Kelly Ripa & she took it the wrong way – that was 3 or 4 years ago. And Cil, you really sound obsessed. Chill out, the man is gay, he hasn’t done anything to hurt you personally. Let him live his life & you live yours.

To stupid Cil, you can be a gay & still be a Christian. Hate to burst your bubble, but Christians have sex, kinky sex, pre-marital sex, gay sex… open your eyes, no human is perfect. I think Clay tries a lot harder than most people to be a good person…. certainly harder than you & your haterblog cohorts do. He’s had a heck of a lot people bash him over the years from every corner & somehow, amazingly, he manages to NEVER say a bad word about them. He’s one of the good guys.
