The No Shit Sherlock Chronicles.
Clay Aiken is gay.
Clay officially came out of the closet this morning with an article in People magazine, prompted by the birth of his son Parker.
Bossy is happy Clay can now love freely and she welcomes him into Bossy’s pack of gays.
Although Bossy also shares the opinion of Michael Stipe, who once answered the question about his own sexuality this way:
“It’s nobody’s business. Unless that person is sitting on my lap.”
Am I first?
Holy cow. I got so excited about being first (and maybe even second) (MAYBE), I forgot what I was going to say.
“It’s nobody’s business. Unless that person is sitting on my lap.”
AMEN! My thoughts exactly!
I could not have cared less about Clay Aiken’s gayness or not!!
Why do people ask / make a big deal about these things?
I am totally with Michael Stipe… well said !!
P.S. I think that “coming out of the closet” is a concept whose time has passed.
Wow, what a complete and utter shock. I better sit down. No, in fact, I’m going to lie down and take the day off of work to absorb this completely unexpected and shocking news
No Way!!! I dont believe it and wont believe it. You people are just trying to ruin Clays rep. There is no way clay is gay. Whats next, is somebody going to start a rumor that Johnny Mathis is gay too?? PS… kelly Ripa is a bully!
Did you just say “shit”?!
Whoa!
I don’t even understand why there always needs to be a big announcement? It’s not like there are celebrities who go on the cover of People and say “I’m Straight”. It’s all ridiculous!
Michael Stipe’s quote is it!
BOSSY: when will you do a tutorial on how to make your awesome portraits?
Clay Aiken is gay? Who knew? The next thing you know, they’ll tell us we landed on the moon!
My 4 year old was just looking over my shoulder and said,
“Is that a werewolf? That looks like a werewolf mommy.”
I thought Bossy would like the art interpretation.
I’m liking the portraits too and wondering how to do them. Yours are good.
great portrait, as usual, and a great lap line.
Duh. And Michael Stipe is cool, sexy, and clevah.
Oh I like that Michael Stipe…but that probably doesn’t matter to him, does it?
D’oh.
Johnny Mathis is gay? Next thing you know, we will all find out that George Michael is as well.
OMG. He actually thinks people are going to be shocked by this?
clay kinda creeps me out. not because he is gay. i’m with the werewolf interpretation. he creeps me out because he looks kinda like a werewolf.
I don’t know how you do it. Clay Aiken actually looks more human in your portrait.
*yawn*
Wow. Let me absorb this. Ok, done! What’s next on the old celebrity “who knew?” list? Hmmm, oh yeah! Michael Jackson has had plastic surgery!
Can the “Barbie Thee-ay-ter” act out the announcing of this announcement??
Seriously? Is anyone surprised? And everyone on the news this morning was all, “OMGWTFBBQ! HE’S GAY!” Whatevs. Who cares.
Also? Ain’t nobody’s business. Well said, Michael Stipe.
Michael Stipe also said, “I’m not homosexual, I’m not heterosexual; I’m just sexual.” We all are! I don’t know why it matters where anyone falls on the spectrum of sexuality.
And, uh, yeah – Clay’s announcement was just as shocking as Jodie Foster admitting she has a female partner. We’ve known since “The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane”! Oh, wait – didn’t I just say that didn’t matter?
Guess it does.
I’m as shocked as I was when Nathan Lane came out.
Bossy has the best headlines.
Bossy is just so good.
Now, where does Mini apply to get her some gays? I keep looking behind all these McCain/Palin signs and can’t find any hiding there…
…Gosh dang! I say move over Biden, the Democratic ticket should be Obama and Bossy! ;o)
…You’re an awesome person Bossy!
…Many blessings…

Who’s Clay Aiken?
He’s gay? Really? Who knew?
Insert icon here….
Wow. I never looked at Clay Aiken too closely until now.
While I knew he was gay, I didn’t know that he was African-American.
err, that said sarcast icon but apparently it didn’t like the “< " symbol
Oh good! Now I can stop all the wondering I’ve been doing!!
I didn’t know you had a pack of gays. Hilarious.
I also have some very, very dear gay and lesbian friends, but wouldn’t have thought of that denomination. ROFL
Hm, don’t know about Clay or Michael, but come over here Bossy and sit in my lap and we’ll talk about it.
Clay who?
I lost that bet.
Oiy! “No shit Sherlock” is right!
Hopefully one of these days “coming out of the closet” will be something someone only says when they’re talking about their skeletons and not their sexuality.
The “No Shit Chronicles.”
*snort*
I love it.
How does one go about becoming a subject for a Bossy portrait? I want to be painted by the artist known as Bossy
Wait. Clay Aiken just now came out of the closet??? What, was he the last to know??
I’m reeling. I thought he was into me.
As a friend of mine once, rather awkwardly, put it “I don’t care until there’s penetration.” It’s a quote which we’ve gibed him about for years, but still appreciate and believe in the sentiment.
I wonder why the birth of his son prompted him to come out. Reckon it was to give his kid something to be proud of?
Ok, NOW I know who he is. He’s good.

There apparently was one person on the planet who was not aware that Clay Aiken was gay…the editor of People Magazine. Doh!
I don’t think anyone on the planet is surprised. Must be a slow time for gossip over at People.
Here’s another chapter for the No Shit Sherlock Chronicles.
I was stunned beyond words when I read this headline recently:
Cheney is losing his effectiveness.
Gosh, what will be next?
You know, he’s gotten a lot better lookin since his season on Idol.
‘Tis a loss for women everywhere. Or something.
Oh fer chrissake.
Please. As. If. This was a surprise? Please. Go Clay. Get U Some!! He probably gets more than I do… And I got it 10 times last week.
LOL! I haven’t heard “No shit, Sherlock” in ages! (Technically, I still haven’t, but you know what I mean…)
