Despite the fact it's 2006, stars will go to great lengths to avoid be labeled "gay."

Last month, former Green Beret John Paulus interviewed with several media outlets to claim he hooked up with American Idols Clay Aiken in a North Carolina hotel room. While most of us find this hookup fairly innocuous, Clay Aiken appears determined to dispel these rumors by courting hot chicks around Los Angeles.

EXPECT to see Clay Aiken popping up all over with beautiful women on his arms soon. Aiken has kept a low profile since former Green Beret John Paulus went on the record saying they had unprotected sex. Since then, others have come forward, noting they too had relations with Aiken after meeting him on the Internet. Aiken, whose image is based on a church choirboy, was even sued by some irate fans claiming false marketing - and now, spies said Aiken was spotted last Tuesday night at the Dinner De tective, a murder mystery dinner in Los Angeles with "a gorgeous girl on his arm." Our spy giggled: "Unfortu nately, the strategy does nothing to wash away the disturbing images of his half-nude Web cam striptease pho tos seared across the brains of who ever has seen them on the Internet or in print." What's next - the requisite visit to the Playboy Mansion?

Is there something wrong with Clay being a homosexual?

Only if he's growing a beard... those little whiskers tickle the sack.

I wonder when the rag is going on Ebay?

Also, according to the link, it's safe to assume the Measure of a Man is small with three small bumps.

Aaaaah, gossip. It makes the world go around. I wonder when Bat Boy is going to claim he had sex with Bo Bice after being discharged from the Army?

I have to go with doberman on this one here.

Obviously a site about goth girls showing their va-jay-jay should be held to a higher standard than less serious news sources like the new york post.

What ever happened to news ethics.

Whenever I want to dispell rumors I'm gay I try to avoid murder mystery themed diners.

Okay, I understand the vulgar reference of "beard", but why did I only start hearing it a lot about six months ago?

This is perfectly situated next to the R. Kelly story.

The idea of calling either story "news" makes me throw up in my mouth a little. But... enquiring minds want to know, and all that...

Story would have been funnier if he actually was growing a beard.

There's a new gossip section of the SG Newswire.

And some of us are very excited about it.
