Clay Aiken is an Easter Bonnet
Clay Aiken and Spamalot’s Hannah Waddingham depart from the 22nd Annual Easter Bonnet Competition, held on Tuesday at the Minskoff Theatre in New York City.
It was announced that over $3.7 million had been raised for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
In his new album On My Way Here, Clay has a track called ‘The Real Me’ which was written by Natalie Grant, a singer-songwriter in the area of contemporary Christian music.
In an interview with Billboard, Clay said of the track ‘The Real Me,’ “We first looked at that song as one of four originals on the last album. The thing I love so much about ‘The Real Me’ is that when I listened to it, I thought, ‘It’s about God.’ Jaymes (executive producer) heard a romantic song. Other people think it’s about their mom. Everyone is able to take their own message. Natalie was kind enough to change a little bit of the lyric so that it fits my life even better.”

what took u so long amanda aka kali?
I was there when those photos were taken yesterday. Clay and Hannah were holding hands until they saw the photographers. Must not want the public to know they are a couple.
Clay has made a lot of new friends on Broadway. Hannah is just beautiful and a real sweetheart. They looked wonderful.
BTW, is it wrong for a handsome young man to have the relationship with an older woman?? Obviously, it is a world-shaking relationship on the Internet like sugarmommamatch.com. Most blogs and news are focusing and discussing on this kind of relationship. How do you think of such a thing?
Hannah and Clay are two amazingly talented young people. If you have not seen “Spamalot”, run, don’t walk to see it this week, as this is the last week they will be in “Spamalot” together. They were at and performed together during the East Bonnet Event for Broadway Cares. Clay has done an amazing job in “Spamalot” and has made some wonderful friends with the cast and crew during this time; I am very happy for all of them.
thank you jared for telling everyone what he thinks THE REAL ME is about. no people, its not his COMING OUT SONG or something idiotic like that. who has ever heard of a thing anyways?
God that man looks ridiculous. Get him a hairdresser now! EW!
Clay looks just like Cojo from the Entertainment Tonight show which is not a good thing. What is up with that ton of makeup on him? it makes him look more feminine than the lady he’s with.
Dear Jackie, If you had read the comments made above, you would have realized that your question had already been addressed. Hannah and Clay are in “Spamalot” together and were doing a song from the show at the event, which was being recorded. They both had on stage makeup, as their blond hair and light features are washed out under the lights. Therefore, they were both prepared for this, as they would normally be at the show itself. However, I realize, your comment was probably just another excuse to make a ‘middle-school’, immature, teen-age put-down.
Clay and Hannah have just performed at the Broadway Cares event. Stage Make-up still in place for both. You need to be better informed before you flap your jaws!
What a beautiful couple..two very talented people too!
Older woman, OMG!!!! she is 33 he is 29.. Wow what a vast difference in age. God, people, grow up! Clay is not gay. Gay bashers have very little minds and everything else that goes with it. Nothing more can be said to change these ridiculously petty minds.
Ugh—he is looking more and more gay than ever—geez, I guess—because. he. is.
There’s something really disturbing about these photos because Clay looks more feminine than Hannah. Although, Hannah is a very handsome woman, indeed. ;)
How old are some of you people.? Hannah W. and Clay A. are castmates and no one knows if there is more to the relationship.
They appeared at a charity event together and then had their own performances in Spamalot to perform. I’ve seen many pictures of Clay Aiken on his own downtime and he does not wear makeup other than when he’s on stage. Gee, that’s earth-shattering news isn’t it?
Why is it not a big deal when other male celebs walk around wearing makeup on their downtime? Because the public doesn’t care about them. Good or bad, Clay Aiken is a media magnet and it’s always easier and more fun to diss someone than actually have something intelligent to say. As to any age barrier, I don’t see that making a difference to the general public and especially the media
where it concerns Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore but then they are part of the “cool” crowd. Clay Aiken has never aspired to be part of the cool crowd. He has aspired to be a better person and do something meaningful with his life and his celebrity. Something I might add a few of you folks might consider.
Further, Clay Aiken is a very private person. Whatever the relationship between Clay and Hannah or any gal for that matter, Clay Aiken is not going to be seen in public being all kissy-face and hanging all over her. He is a classy guy who respects the gals he’s with and has a fervent desire to protect that gal from the scrutiny and bashing that he has had to endure for the past five years. Who can blame him for keeping his personal life private?
LOL @ ‘Clay being an Easter bonnet’…how fruity. And it’s also funny how all the old women aka Claymates are jumping in here defending him. ROFL
rofl — It’s also funny and so predictable how Clay Aiken’s detractors
find every article about him in order to bash him. I’m sorry you have nothing better to do with your pathetic lives.
BTW, I am not an old woman but I am a fan.
The claymates have arrived to defend their gf. Ok, he’s wearing makeup….but he’s not on stage in those pictures….so what’s his excuse. I’ve noticed in more and more photos he wears makeup. So now that he is on stage that gives him and excuse to wear it all the time. OOPS! I just didn’t have time to wash it off….OK! I get it ;)
They were holding hands until the cameras showed up. What! Say that again. You would think he wanted to be seen holding hands with a girl.
Hey teapot THEY WERE ON STAGE ONLY A FEW MINUTES BEFORE THIS PIC WAS TAKEN! the theatre they were leaving had a charity benefit, they sang together. hence STAGE MAKEUP. see now teapot and others.. maybe your small mids will understand that.
god, is he ridiculously scary looking or what?????
It’s amazing how many idiotic and immature people come on every site that mentions Clay Aiken to bash and ridicule him. If you don’t like the guy, so be it but why don’t you go visit other sites where you have an interest. I don’t want to waste my time commenting on people/things of which I do not care about.
And I don’t think for one minute that these hateful posts written by “women” are truly women. Just sayin.
I saw Clay on QVC yesterday and I was wondering if he has a disease called Blespharospasm because it looked like he couldn’t keep his left eye open. I suffer from that so I wonder if he does too.
Patty: Yes Clay does have a problem with that one eye. To me it gives him an air of sexyness !!! IMO Clay is a gorgeous man with a beautiful heart . It just shows how wildly popular Clay Aiken is that so many people can take the time to spew such hate on someone that don’t even have the time of day for.
Clay is CLASS to the highest degree and he will forever and always be the personification of all that is right and good !!
Is that Walter Mercado ??
I was in the audience at the show yesterday and while I can’t speculate as to the nature of Mr. Aiken and Ms. Waddingham’s relationship. This I know for sure. Hannah Waddingham sang circles around Clay Aiken! While I appreciate his participating in such an important charity event it was startling to hear the difference in the two singer’s vocal quality and training. Clay should have sung solo because Hannah stole the duet. Suffice it to say I will not be buying any tickets to see Spamalot! I must save up to see Mario Lopez’s amazing turn in A Chorus Line again!!!
Hello weird claymates like madelle…will you continue to fool yourself that he’;s not gay…just seeing the reruns of AI2 makes me cringe seeing how ***** he really looks like and acts…he needs not come out cos its all written in his entire persona…
are you saying that you won’t stand by him cos he’s gay so you have to fool yurself that he’s not…pitiful…
