Luann De Groot is a famous young lady. She became a star on March 17, 1985 when she made her first appearance in the newspaper. Luann was an 8th grader back in 1985 and today, she is a student at Pitts High School. Now, how can that be??
Luann is a comic strip character made famous by Greg Evans and in the world of comics, age just doesn’t compute. The strip is set in the suburbs and is about Luann dealing with school, her family, friends and love interests.
Greg has included four “real-life” characters in his strip. Jay Leno, Hugh Hefner, Barack Obama, and Clay Aiken have all impacted the “life” of Luann.
Clay Drives By
In October, 2003, Evans was in Los Angeles for business. He attended the release party for Clay Aiken‘s debut album, Measure of a Man at the Burbank Hilton on October 13th. Along with Billboard reporter Fred Bronson, he was introduced to Clay Aiken fans and was amazed at their excitement and support. It was this encounter that inspired Evans to come up with a storyline that included Clay Aiken.
Let’s go back a few years and enjoy a visit to Luann as she meets Clay Aiken.
