After coming out of the closet…even though no one ever shut him in there Clay Aiken reveals how he told his mother 4 years ago that he was a gay boy.  Clay stated to People magazine:

“She started crying. She was obviously somewhat stunned. But she was very supportive and very comforting,” “She still struggles with things quite a bit, but she’s come a long way.”

He also states that his fans maybe shocked about him being gay stating:

“Whether it be having a child out of wedlock, or whether it be simply being a homosexual, it’s going to be a lot,” “know that I’ve never intended to lie to anybody at all. … But if they leave, I don’t want them to leave hating me.”

His mom didn’t know till four years ago…seriously?  I mean this guy just has the face and voice of a gay guy, drawn out sss’s and all.
