Well we don't know if Aiken is gay really. He has never really stated
whether or not he was. I do know that the Aiken fans don't appreciate those cat people who have posted on his Web Site against him. What Aiken said in that interview was stupid and obnoxious. I guess he feels fame gives him the write to speak out against cats. I don't always agree with PETA but I do agree with them on this one. They have every right to post that ad. -- Panther TEK: Staying On Top Of All Your Computer Needs! www.members.cox.net/catprotector/panthertek Cat Galaxy: All Cats, All The Time! www.catgalaxymedia.com "Mary" wrote in message . com... Precisely. His response should have been to adopt another cat and make sure he lavished it with love. He's still a mincing little Queen in my book. But then I don't like his music anyway.

I have read and re-read a lot of posts and even contacted PETA for a
response. I have no doubt that Aiken knows what he said because he has stated it more than once. If you make a mistake a couple of times saying something publically that is fine. But when you say it countless times then that is disturbing. Clay did state the following: "I think cats are Satan. There's nothing worse to me than a house cat. When I was about sixteen, I had a kitten and ran over it." It may have been accidental but he did add insult to injury when he said there is nothing worse than a house cat. As a cat lover I was disgusted by Aiken's words. -- Panther TEK: Staying On Top Of All Your Computer Needs! www.members.cox.net/catprotector/panthertek Cat Galaxy: All Cats, All The Time! www.catgalaxymedia.com "Yngver" wrote in message ... Just because a person is famous does not mean he immediately becomes articulate and well-spoken. Aiken is certainly not the first famous person who didn't think about the impact of what he was saying before saying it. |

Whether he likes it or not, Clay Aiken has become a role model for many
people (please don't include me in that bunch, I think he's a weird little twirp) so he should learn not to say things that his stupid fans could emulate. There are enough cat haters out there without confirmation from a celebrity (still can't understand that)... "Rona Yuthasastrakosol" wrote in message ... "PawsForThought" wrote in message ... Thanks for posting this, Rona. As I said in my post, I had just gotten it from another board and didn't know if it was true or not. That's why I added the little thing at the top of my post--my comments weren't directed to you at all. But the comment about cats being Satan, well is strange for sure. I think most of us aren't haunted by cat spirits as Satan. I think most of us who are *haunted* by such a thing would be inspired to do good, make life right for another cat, in the spirit of love, not Satan. Agreed. He certainly could have used better words to describe his fears. I think, however, that the use of the word Satan from a southern American Christian (likely fundamentalist), describing something s/he doesn't like or is afraid of, is probably pretty frequent. I would say this is especially true of a person who seems to be rather over-dramatic. rona (stereotyping can be fun!) -- ***For e-mail, replace .com with .ca Sorry for the inconvenience!*** |
