Miracle: Clay Aiken a Father
By Robert Paul Reyes
Which of these headlines seems the most unlikely?
*Montauk Monster Declares He's Running For President
*Israeli Prime Minister and Palestinian President Hold Hands And Sing Kumbaya
*John McCain Drops Out, Admits He's Too Old
*Lindsay Lohan Joins A Convent
*Clay Aiken Is A Father
The most preposterous headline is the one claiming that Clay Aiken is a father, but it's true!
"The former American Idol contestant and music producer Jaymes Foster welcomed a baby boy Friday morning, the singer said in a statement on his Web site.
'HE'S HERE!' Aiken writes. 'My dear friend, Jaymes, and I are so excited to announce the birth of Parker Foster Aiken."Aiken
Quotation from People.Com
Clay Aiken is gay as all get-out, not that there's anything wrong with that. Aiken has been outed by just about every publication and Web site in the world.
This story seems unbelievable until you learn that Foster became pregnant not the old-fashioned way, but by in vitro fertilization.
Aiken seems like a very decent young man, and I'm sure he will be a terrific father.
Congrats to Aiken and Foster
