The name Clay Aiken has come up in many conversations recently among many varied people. On Monday, a conversation that I was involved with was about Clay and his wonderful appearances on the popular daytime television show, The View.
The conversation made me think of the many times Clay has visited The View. From what I can remember, he has appeared on the show nine different times. Each one was fun, different and entertaining. I hope I found them all.

Clay was a co-host on the View. It was cute that he actually got “bleeped” and there was a great conversation on Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell!
The following is a video of Clay singing Unchained Melody on The View!
Did you watch these appearances by Clay?
First of all, I still adore that performance! Clay is always a great guest. I wonder if they will have him in if he decides to run? I’m not sure what ‘s allowed and what’s not. Hmm…
It's really a shame they don't continue to reach out
to him. He has so much to offer
and such a great personality! Would love to see
him back on it again.
It's really a shame they don't reach out to more now. He has so
much to offer. Would love to see Clay on it again!!
The first time I saw Clay on the View was 2006, after I retired from working. He is always a wonderful guest on any show. Talkative, funny, open and of course sharing his fantastic voice in song.
I love Clay on TV!!! 😀
