American Idol Season 2 runner-up, Clay Aiken, the year when Ruben Studdard bagged the coveted title, is now a father. Normally, this would not be news but the birth of his son, named Parker Foster Aiken, is totally under bizarre circumstances.

For one, Clay Aiken has been rumoured to be gay though he has not yet “come out”. Secondly, the mother of Parker Foster Aiken, Jaymes Foster (inset), is in her 50s, Clay’s music producer and sister to highly acclaimed music producer David Foster.

So, here’s one gay guy and a single woman who apparently does not have a child of her, own, longing for a child to fill a void in her life, two people who have known each other for ages, decided to get together to produce a child, which they did via artificial insemination.

Clay Aiken has claimed that the baby was born on 8th August, 2008, at 8.08am. However, his baby announcement was put up on his website at 8.05am. WTF, man??

I tell you, it is as if the world does not have enough f@rk up people, they need to bring up a child in such a weird household, I would be amazed if he does not grow up utter confused of where he comes from.

Being rich and able to do whatever they want does not make it right to bring a child into the world in such circumstances. Whatever, I hope that they are happy with the decision they have made.
