Did you see Clay Aiken on television Tuesday morning? He was featured on a segment on HLN. The show titled MichaeLA features the polished and energetic Michaela Pereira. The show is 2 hours and filled with news, features guests, information, and fun too.
As always, Clay was articulate, knowledgable, and seemed to enjoy being on the show. He looked relaxed and happy to be there.
If you missed seeing the show, you can see it on our Facebook page.
The video is just Clay’s part of the show!

The Internet has been filled with mentions of American Idol this week…..Wait…Wasn’t last year the final year? Well according to Entertainment Weekly:
The producers of American Idol are in talks to reboot the singing competition series — but not on Fox.
Instead, NBC is kicking the tires of the iconic reality show, which for years dominated the Nielsen ratings before it was canceled last year.
Variety first reported the news that Fremantle Media was pitching a revival of the show to NBC. Sources caution, however, that a deal isn’t hugely likely — NBC already has the top-rated singing competition in the fall and spring (The Voice), plus the top-rated talent show in the summer (America’s Got Talent).
Also, Idol was axed for a reason. The series was expensive due to its ambitious format of nationwide auditions, live results shows, multiple episodes per week and a celebrity-filled judges panel (the 15th and final season had Harry Connick Jr., Keith Urban, and Jennifer Lopez).
Any revival would probably look for ways to both freshen the format and cut costs. NBC would also likely have to reduce its current commitment to The Voice (which has been softening in the ratings but is still quite formidable). Adding Idol into what’s already a successful competition series lineup would have NBC betting on a rather big, well, x-factor.

Speaking of American Idol…
I found a great YouTube that highlights Clay Aiken on his journey on American Idol.
I hope you enjoy it!
How lucky we are that Clay Aiken was on American Idol!!
I wish they would vitalize "American Idol" but back to the original format! Wouldn't it be great if OMC was one of the judges or the host! Thanks for sharing the Claymemory of AI!
Thanks for posting the HLN segment on facebook. I missed it yesterday, but CANN always comes through for me. Loved the video of the highlights of Clay's performances on AI. Such great memories of his glorious voice.
Wasn’t Clay marvelous on HLN. He was looking very handsome and was relaxed and happy. He was great. I think I like the no glasses look but the glasses are ok. My life would be so different if Clay hadn’t been on American Idol. I hate to think of life without him. The video of Clay’s highlights was really good. There’s nothing young Clay couldn’t with a song. ❤️ UNCONDITIONAL love to you Clay. Stay happy.
Loved seeing Clay on TV. He really looked good.
I didn't watch American Idol the last few seasons. They seemed to like the judges more than the kids. But, if Clay on the show L would watch again.
Thanks for the post today.
Clay sure looked great on TV. I hope he is on again. Loved the first picture of him…a great smile.
AI? Won't watch unless Clay is on.
Wow! Blew me away all over again. Whew! Thank you for that treasure!!!
