Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 22, 2003 You did'nt expect that weird fruity booty Barry Manalow keebler elf imposter to win did you? Clay better audition for some Broadway or Las Vegas musicals quick before the general public forgets about him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted May 22, 2003 that fruity booty keebler elf could sing his ASS off. i hate 'unchained melody' but he hit ALL of the notes. he also did a good job on elton john's 'don't let the sun go down on me' but that doesn't surprise me.

Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 22, 2003 Well Disney better sign him to sing in the next animated feature. As you know image is everything and I do not think Clay can do well in a solo career. Now if they can just group together the best of the losers into a pop group it would sell millions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted May 22, 2003 I don't know much about the show, but looking at Clay you just knew he couldn't sell records. Maybe the first one coming off the show, but not past that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted May 22, 2003 that is an insult to every ugly artist who ever had a platinum record. hey, i think aretha franklin is fat (she is) and ugly (only because she is fat) but that doesn't stop me from popping in aretha's greatest. personally, i don't think clay would be geared toward today's teen market like clarkson or whoever else. he could easily succeed in a MOR, easy listening environment.

Guest razazteca Report post Posted May 22, 2003 Being fat is acceptable in the music business. But Clay needs some serious image consulting to sell his music, I believe he could see millions in a Las Vegas casino stage show based on the tv show, hell all he would have to do is sing classics that everybody likes just like the tv show! Clay would be better off going after the audience that worships Barbarba, Bette, Harry Jr instead of trying to appeal to Backseat Boy fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted May 22, 2003 Aretha hit her stride in a time where radio was the #1 thing for music. Sadly that's not the case and now it's MTV. Image over talent these days, and that's too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Midnight Express83 Report post Posted May 22, 2003 This is funny. Because Clay needs a haircut and he is set. Your winner is 130 pounds over weight and everyone is saying CLAY needs help? Both are talented but Clay should do broadway, his style of his voice is for that. But off this American Idol group you have Justin's CD coming out soon. Tamiria's CD coming out soon. Ruben's starting to work on his after this crappy ballot comes out. Then you have Clay which needs to wait 45 days after Ruben's so it could be over a year.

Guest oldschoolwrestling Report post Posted May 22, 2003 24 million people voted. They said that the difference between first and second place was around 1300 votes. Does anyone believe it could be that close with 24 mil voting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ant_7000 Report post Posted May 22, 2003 Im glad Ruben won, Clay was good but he should be doing broadway plays or lounge singing. Ruben needs to lose some weight because he looked worn out and was kinda off last night. Im suprised that Kelly Clarkson went platinum without heavy promotion.

Guest subliminal_animal Report post Posted May 23, 2003 (edited) Well Disney better sign him to sing in the next animated feature. As you know image is everything and I do not think Clay can do well in a solo career. Now if they can just group together the best of the losers into a pop group it would sell millions. They can be called ... "The Best of the Losers"! And that's my idea, Jackson, because you didn't state the phrase in the form of an idea. I'm just telling you here, so don't you be looking to start something and get the mooch off my riches. No, wait ... "THE AMERICAN IDOLS"! ITLL BE $$$$$ BITCH!!!!!!! You did'nt expect that weird fruity booty Barry Manalow keebler elf imposter to win did you? Clay better audition for some Broadway or Las Vegas musicals quick before the general public forgets about him. He got pretty damn close. hey, i think aretha franklin is fat (she is) and ugly (only because she is fat) but that doesn't stop me from popping in aretha's greatest. It should. She looks like the ass-end of a motherfuck. And I'd tell that to her fat face, but I wouldn't know which end to tell it to. personally, i don't think clay would be geared toward today's teen market like clarkson or whoever else. he could easily succeed in a MOR, easy listening environment. I agree, because in this case, the "teen" market is "teen girls." He's not handsome like me, so he may not succeed with the young ladies, since I sure haven't. But with older folk, there's a good portion of 'em just in it for the voice. But, then again, the lasses where quakin' for Aiken, but that might only be because of his temporary super-fame. Once it wears of to eh-fame, he may not hold water under glass. I don't know, boys, this is a tough on to call! And I ain't even talking in the air! Also, I hear he's a bit of a Faggoty Andy who don't measure too hot in corndog department ... but that's just what I heard, I dunno! 24 million people voted. They said that the difference between first and second place was around 1300 votes. Does anyone believe it could be that close with 24 mil voting? Yes, because they announced the difference last year with Justin and Kelly, and Kelly won by a pretty decent margin. Im glad Ruben won [...] I'd hate to have to inform you of this, but caring about who won American Idol makes you a fag or a fag with a vagina. I watched most of the episodes, but I didn't care who won, so I'm not a total fag. [...]Clay was good but he should be doing broadway plays or lounge singing. Lounges? What, for fucking strumpets? Ruben needs to lose some weight because he looked worn out and was kinda off last night. Im suprised that Kelly Clarkson went platinum without heavy promotion. Whoa, way to jump topics there, yow! And "worn out"? It was more like, "Holy damn, man, I'm-a gonna die out here under these lights! Also I am hungry." Clay should be the opening act for Celine Dion at her Las Vegas show. Why? Is that an insult? I think that's an insult. This is funny. If you mean me, you're right. Because Clay needs a haircut and he is set. He already waxed his eyebrows. Your winner is 130 pounds over weight and everyone is saying CLAY needs help? It's because Ruben is beyond saving, though. Both are talented but Clay should do broadway, his style of his voice is for that. I think he should team up with Jigglypuff. Or wrestle bears! GRRR! But off this American Idol group you have Justin's CD coming out soon. I came up with that group, jerk. The Born Losers or something. Tamiria's CD coming out soon. She lost last year becuase America is a racist, but they was cool with Justin because he seemed biracial. Ruben's starting to work on his after this crappy ballot comes out. Then you have Clay which needs to wait 45 days after Ruben's so it could be over a year. His crappy ballot? What the heck? And what is this craziness about 45 days? So what was your point? I'm not trying to be mean, I just think I cut the important parts out because they were hard to crack on. And no, I'm not scrolling up.
