I want to take moment to apologize to all of you! I live in the San Francisco and for this week, we have been at a temperature of 106 degrees. Like most of my neighbors, we don’t have air-conditioning. Yep! It’s been pretty dreadful. I spent time with my family and had
NO Computer!
But, everything seems much better and I will try to catch up on news of Clay Aiken!
On Wednesday there was a nice article about Clay and Wheel of Fortune.
From WBKR 92.5 The Country Station –
If you watched Season 2 of American Idol, you are likely a familiar with Clay Aiken. The North Carolina native sang all the way to finale to set up one of the Idol’s most famous finales- Ruben Studdard vs. Clay Aiken. Though Ruben eventually won the title, Clay earned himself a legion of fans called Claymates. And, I’ll confess it. I was one of them.
I am American Idol fanboy. I have watched every single season and Clay’s season was one of the best. During that season, Clay gave some tremendous performances. If you watched the finale, you know that Clay absolutely careered a version of Simon and Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” Honestly, I thought this performance was going to win him the crown. Many AI fans think this performance is one of the best in the show’s history.
I was already a huge fan of Season 1 winner Kelly Clarkson, so when The Independent Tour was announced (co-headlined by Kelly and Clay), my friends and I bought tickets to see them in St. Louis. Yes, I think it’s possible I am more “stan” than fan.
Well, if you ever achieved “Claymate” status, you’re going to be surprised and pumped by this news. Clay Aiken’s going to be in Owensboro this week.
Clay is set to host the second leg of the national tour of Wheel of Fortune Live! That show is rolling into Owensboro this week. While Clay won’t be hosting the Owensboro stop, he’ll be here rehearsing and learning the ropes for the dates he will be the star of.
The Owensboro hosting duties go to Mark L. Walberg, who’s been tapped as the host for the first leg of the tour.
ABC 7 Chicago Digital Team asked Clay some questions
Wheel of Fortune Live coming to Rosemont
ROSEMONT, Ill. (WLS) — America’s game is coming to a Rosemont theater!
This is an all-new, immersive, theatrical experience where it feels like you’re a part of the real “Wheel of Fortune”.
It’s part game-show, part comedy and all entertainment. Especially when Clay Aiken is one of the hosts.
Guests can audition for a chance to go on stage and spin a replica of the wheel and win prizes such as $10,000 or a trip to Paris or Hawaii.
“Wheel of Fortune Live” will play at the Rosemont Theater Sunday, October 23.
Tickets start at $37.

They have a small video of Clay talking about the program!

I have a picture and hopefully, I’ll have everything updated!
I hope you will check out for more information over the week-end. I will catch up over the week-end!
Loved the article and the photo – seems like this will be a very exciting endeavor for Clay and Mark. I am sorry for you and the high heat that you all are experiencing! I hope your family had AC at their home! Thanks to you for all of the above news!
You do not need to apologize. We had the 100 degrees back in August, but we did have electric for 2 weeks. Thank you for all the info and the picture. I did check everything out. The picture is great. Wheel Of Fortune will not be in my area. I will not be able to see Clay or Mark. It looks like it will be a lot of fun. I hope every thing is back to normal for you. Thank you CANN.
Is there a way to learn if Clay will be hosting ‘Wheel’ in a specific city? He will be in Columbus, OH in late Sept. I’d buy a ticket, if I could be sure Clay would be the host that evening.
