Since the KABC supports only corporate-liable lines, we are unaware of most offers for the general public. It took me a while, but I finally found out some information: Radio advertisements are taking place 08/28/05 through 03/31/05. The purchasing of the DVD's will begin the week of 04/04/05. I do not know the actual purchase date nor will the DVD be available through me or this department. It will be available to the general public in the stores. I hope this information helps.

Lisa
Marie Presley and Clay from Claymanics.com Yesterday (3/24) I was at the taping of Oprah's interview with Lisa Marie Presley and her mother. First of all it will be a great show. Oprah spent an entire hour talking with Lisa Marie without stopping to create commercial breaks. During the conversation they discussed music today and how Lisa fits into the current music scene. Lisa Marie indicated her music does not fit the current mold of female teen singers and hip hop. She stated something to the effect that her music, like CLAY AIKEN'S is unigue and does not fit today's mold. I don't know if that comment will make it on air, since there will have to be some cutting to fit in commercials. But I know all Clay fans will know he was mentioned. The show will air the Monday and Tuesday after Easter. |

3/9/05 Is this really necessary?
I posted the
message from Aunt
Frances in the rumor
mill yesterday, I didn’t really know the story behind it but thought it
might be of interest to readers. Later that day a reader emailed me a
copy of the email they received from the un-named person Aunt Frances
referred to. I am shocked!!!
I can’t believe that people are so involved that they feel it is
necessary to threaten this person. I used to be so proud to be a member
of the Clay Nation. It seemed full of wonderful people who only wanted
to support Clay in his career and his charitable endeavors. When
the reader told me about the threats I thought maybe I shouldn’t get
involved but this just makes me so mad. They obviously are trying to
silence the other side. But I have always believed in presenting all
sides and letting the reader decide for
themselves.
That is why I am going to post part of the letter she sent me. Funny that in the post this Francis person claims that I am not a close friend of his family. What does that mean? I went to Hawaii with his family...Amaryllis and Donna. I became close friends with 4 girls from Hawaii because we met at the Raleigh concert and I introduced them to Clayton's mom and Amaryllis, Joan and Donna. We then went to dinner the next night and we started talking on the phone and emailing each other. Our friendship might not have happened because of Clayton's concert...but our friendship grew because we really love and care for each other. How dare someone claim that I mis-lead anyone into being my friend. I happen to be a very kind, loving and giving person. Is it so hard to love me for who I am instead of being friends with Clayton's family? Do you know who this Frances is? It is funny, because at the Gala in Hawaii I spoke to Frances Skinner Lewis and gave her my card and told her about my book and she even said to me that I must have written it with love because she could see it in my eyes when I talked about it. I really did write that book with love and from the bottom of my heart. I also wrote it without a dime of income for 14 months. I did sell some DVDs of Clayton singing but not for profit...I sold it to share a beautiful part of his history and because I had serious lung damage and my medicines cost over the roof! It saved my life! Since I now have insurance I have given away more DVD's than I ever sold. And my daughter's wedding is not in the DVD...that is personal. I love my friends in Hawaii and they are a wonderful part of my life. They all know my story. They all know that Clayton was never close to me and that his mom has never been overly nice to me...but none the less...I was there in the McGhee household as much as he was (actually more)...and I am very close friends with his family. Even my children were around when he was growing up. My son who is 31 still today calls him the "little red-headed kid". This is so sad, because my book is written with so much love and joy. It is so positive and puts Clayton on the highest of ground. I wrote it with so much respect for him and what he has accomplished. I have a special section in it that is devoted only to letters, stories, poems, and songs that his fans wrote to him, and about him. Funny...perfect strangers can write a book and Clayton nor his mom says a word...but I who have been like a family member to the McGhee's all of my life write a beautiful, heartfelt book about my memories and my two years of meeting the most wonderful people on the face of the earth because of Clayton's fans and their "Claying it Forward"...and I am made out to be a liar and someone who is only trying to make money off of him. I am so not about that. Not one word in my book is a lie...and I did not write the book to make money off of him...I wrote it to tell the world a beautiful story about how through Clayton and his fans the world has changed. I sat day after day reading the most endearing stories from his fans and through many months of teary eyes, I put aside a book I had been writing for 2 years...so I could share with the world my experiences of becoming one of Clayton's true fans. The fact that I know and am close friends with his McGhee family only gave me a different insight, because I did hold Clayton when he was a few weeks old. And I did see him at the family cookouts and I do have stories to share...and I have the most wonderful new network of loving friends because of him. So if people want to make up lies and tell bad things about me...then I guess it would be hard for me to stop it. But they are the ones who are less of a good person...not me. Yes...I do expect to get paid for writing this book. That is how I make a living. I have offered a percentage to the BAF...but they have not responded, not even to my attorney. So if they don't want any money then I shall give it to Domestic Violence. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. And yes, it hurts greatly! I feel so sick.........
And now you know another side of
the story. I don't say that either side is right but please keep an open
mind. I agree with some parts of Frances' message. You shouldn't trust
everyone. If you want to pay for someone's meal or trip or whatever do
it because you want to do it for that person not because you are trying
to buy your way into Clay's life. As far as making money off of
Clay...If you buy a picture that an artist drew of Clay is the artist
making money off of Clay or is that artist making money off of their own
talent? The same goes for an author of a book, are they making money off
Clay or their own talent for writing? It is a fine line but are
magazines using Clay by putting him on the cover to sell
magazines....well actually I think they may be taking advantage of our
weakness for anything Clay but that is another story. CBG

3/8/05 Aunt Frances Message from the
Clackhouse by way of the
Clayboard This post at CH is very interesting; maybe you will think it is also. Quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For those of you who are interested... I am passing along a message from a friend of mine...because it involves people that I care about...I am going to post her message in it's entirety. Whether you know Frances (Aunt Frances) or not, the message is completely true...it is being posted on numerous boards...I am posting it here. From: Frances Wilson I don't post very often at the group sites but many of you know that information I give you is reliable. Throughout the last couple of years I've met some very wonderful people who have become very good friends to me and for that I am truly thankful. I'm sure the same is true for many of you as well. I do want to caution you about some who claim to be fans and you may be aware of one or two yourself. Some will claim to be friends/family of Faye or Clay, telling stories from Clay's childhood that may or may not be true. Some of these people have known people who has known Clay for many years, but they themselves did not know him, but claim to have known him since he was a child. One person from the Raleigh area fits this mold very well and is planning to write a book. The book this person is writing has not been endorsed by Clay or anyone from his family. Family and true friends will not use Clay for personal gain. I must say that Clay did sing at the wedding of the daughter of the person I am referring to. Clay did not know the family prior to the wedding. Weddings are personal to me, but this person used her daughter's wedding video for personal gain by selling them on Ebay. So now she wants to write an unauthorized book about Clay and/or his fans. Many of you may have met this person. I know that she attended the BAF Gala in Hawaii at the expense of some of the fans because they thought she was a close family friend. How sad that those ladies were used, once again for personal gain. Please be careful of predators claiming to be one thing, but in reality is another. I don't want to see any of Clay's true fans be taken for a ride. Blessings to you all. Frances |

3/2/05 From the Clackhouse Kelly on the radio "Clay "adores" AI and watches it all the time... Small Clay mention. I was driving home and listening to Star94 and who happens to call in but Kelly. She will be headlining their spring concert this year and called in to discuss that. Anyway at some point during the interview they ask her if she has time to keep up with AI. Kelly said no, that she was touring last year and now she is out of the country so she has no time, but that Clay, who she is "really good friends with" "adores" AI and watches it all the time...That he enjoys the whole "process of the show" a lot, and has the habit of calling them up and keeping them up to date on what is going on. |

Clay to appear on Scrubs from Bolt by way of Clayboard Topic: I saw Clay tonight Jan 22 2005 1:19AM Clay sang to me tonight in Glendale. He's a dream. ANyway, I saw Clay at the taping of Scrubs tonight. He was amazing. It was a wonderful show and the cast was fantastic. Just the best time ever! So what did he sing??? Isn't She Lovely. He was actually a character on the show too. Yes, this Scrubs episode will air around the third Tuesday in February. Clay plays Kenny, a cafeteria worker. He was wonderful and so was the show. 
Yes, Clay has lines and there's a talent show on the show. Of course, Clay wins! Yes, we taped it in Glendale, California. It was a wonderful night. Before I go, I thought I'd tell you one funny thing that Clay said after the show. He announced on camera (with Access Hollywood there) and to everyone on the set, "Scrubs is a great show! Watch this on Tuesday nights instead of American Idol." I can't believe he said it, but he meant it. I'm sure you'll see all of this on TV at some point. For One Week Only, It's 'Scrubs,' the Sitcom ------------------------------------------------------------------- More info from the poster on Bolt last night. She just posted more on Bolt this morning. Topic: More Scrubs Info Jan 22 2005 11:17AM Good morning. To answer a few questions: 1.) Clay isn't singing to any girl, he's singing that song in a talent show. 2.) Clay plays a nerdy cafeteria worker, Kenny, who is getting fired. 3.) Clay sings that particular song because it's Turk's and Carla's wedding song. 4.) He has lines and everything. 5.) You could hear the Scrubs creator talking to Clay (Bill Lawrence) is a huge Clay AIken fan. He even told us that AI2 was the only reality show he watched and even called in for. So, that's great that Clay loves Scrubs and Scrubs loves Clay.
6.) He sang for the audience between breaks. He was wonderful and everyone was screaming for him. These are SCRUBS fans--not Clay fans. It was so cool! 7.) My sister won tickets to see the show. That's how I got to be there. ANy other questions? I'll try to check back tonight or tomorow morning? http://www.bolt.com/boards/replies.jsp?categoryId=54&boardId=803&postId=20288961 |

Dr. Phil postponed from the ClayBoard I don't have any other details, other than Clay's January 11th appearance on the Dr. Phil Show has been postponed. I wish I had more details, but I don't. I don't know the postponement date, either. All I know is what I've written above. I know I don't post here much, but I think ClayNation and Sharmardo can vouch that this news is valid, and that I'm a credible source. I know there will be nay-sayers. And that is fine....but know I JUST learned it and wanted to share, and had permission to do so. If I find out about the date, I'll let you know! Dawn |

all
I tried to contain my excitement and sneak onto the
boards during the day but I thought that maybe they
tracked what sites we go to....didnt want to get in
trouble, haha..
this evening. ...... at 4 I decided to hit happy
hour near my house. While there I ran into my friend
who is peripheral to the music business in that he
was a DJ and now is getting ready to produce his own
radio program. He's lived in Nashville forever and
he "knows people". <g> Well we were chatting and
after a while, I bring up Clay. He may have brought
him up because he knows I love Clay and it drives
him nuts (so he says) because he has the hots for me
(so he says) - he says he stands no chance against a
young hottie. <g> Anyway, I said something about
Clay touring and how some fans are always bitching.
He says, "Isn't David Foster producing his next CD?"
I had said NOTHING about producers or the like - I'm
not even sure I brought up the CD thing. I said,
"that's the rumor". He just nodded. I said, "Where
did you hear that?" He said he has a friend who is
like a brother to David Foster and that was what he
heard. He said that DF is thinking of moving to
Nashville because he is getting sick of LA @#%$. I
then mentioned that some fans are pissed off at the
DF implication because they don't want Clay to be
Josh Groban or Michael Buble. He got this disgusted
look on his face and said, "DF has produced some of
the biggest people in the business from Hall and
Oats, to Alice Cooper, to Celine Dion, to Bryan
Adams and that Clay would be extremely fortunate to
work with him because he is a hit maker with 7
Grammy's." He went on to bitch that DF should not be
pigeonholed with Josh Groban because the man has
been around forever and is very talented. He also
said that he knows TALENT and that if he is working
with Clay it is because Clay is extremely talented.
He also scoffed (loudly) at the implication that
Clay would come out sounding like Josh Groban - he
said, "Clay will sound like CLAY is DF produces him.
This is a good thing."
