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.

Well Aiken's remarks have caused us to ban the airplay of his music for the
time being. I am hoping that Aiken will apologize for comments though against cats. Other than his comments he has remained rather silent. I think he is talented and it is a shame to ban his music but as an owner of a radio station for cats, I can't dismiss his rather public dislike for cats. Cats are beautiful and intelligent creatures and not the evil beings Aiken has made them out to be. As a cat lover I am disgusted by his remarks. BTW, the Cat Galaxy Forum is having a discussion about this issue. You can check it out at http://groups.msn.com/CatGalaxy . All cats and cat lovers are welcome to post their views. -- 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 .. .

I think he is talented but his anti-cat statements is one of the reasons
that right now his music will not see airplay on Cat Galaxy.

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.

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!*** |

2003-11-19 22:08:18 Yahoo News PETA Blackmails Clay Aiken PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), who have long ago lost sight of "the line," have dropped to a new low. Now they are blackmailing American Idols runner-up Clay Aiken. "People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has delayed a new ad campaign with the slogan "Get Neutered, It Didn't Hurt Clay Aiken," while it waits to see if Aiken will apologize for negative comments he made about cats," PETA officials said Tuesday. PETA vice president Dan Mathews said that Clay needs to learn to take a joke if he wants to be famous. So what are the oh-so-offensive comments that Clay made about cats? "There's nothing worse to me than a house cat. When I was about sixteen, I had a kitten and ran over it. Seeing that cat die, I actually think that its spirit has haunted me. I wasn't afraid of cats before. But now they scare me to death," Aiken told Rolling Stone. PETA has also said that they will call off the advertisement if Clays posts a message on his website urging owners to spay or neuter and give an interview to PETA. So basically, because Clay had a bad experience with a cat, and now doesn't like them, he's suddenly a bad person? He's not allowed to voice his personal preference? What, will Calvin Klein start to run derogatory advertisements against Ricky Martin if he suddenly announces that he prefers Hanes instead? What's next? You can't announce that you like a certain shampoo? That's just fricking nonsense. Personally, I'm not a big Clay Aiken fan, but I'll darn well stand up and support him should he choose to stand against PETA for this stupid and moronic choice of theirs. Clay, and all of his fans, should go support a worthy animal cause, such as the ASPCA, the Humane Society, or the World Wildlife Fund. I'm sure any one of those organizations would do wonderful things with your donations, not take time out to bash celebrities for their personal choice. ================================================== =========== http://www.triumphtheinsultcomicdog.com/ TRIUMPH ON THE PETA AD "Recently I agreed to do an ad for PETA. Why? I'm not into animal rights. The only animal right I want is the right to hump Ashanti's leg. Look at your average animal lovers, like Moby and Bill Maher. Sure, Bill Maher love animals... that's because humans hate him! Moby? Nice guy, but not the best looking man. I hear Moby had sex with a poodle once, and the poodle was arrested for bestiality. Vegetarianism? Count me out. I ain't giving up cow, or bird, or pig. So why the hell should you? Hell, we'd eat you if someone dropped a slice on the floor. Oh, yes. We'll have the deep fried Moby with a side of glazed Mary Tyler Moore, please. Dessert? I'm torn between the Pam Anderson flambe and the flourless Alec Baldwin cake. Bottom line: animals are assholes. Delicious assholes. Which brings me back to this PETA ad. Why would I endorse neutering? After all, I rip into another animal-hugging nut job, Bob Barker, on the CD. The guy can't stop telling people to cut their pets' nuts off. So Jack Black and I have at him: "Bob Barker got a bone to pick/gonna make a chew toy outta your dick/these teeth are sharp and the price is right/gonna neuter your ass with one nut crackin' bite." There can be only one reason I would then turn around and advocate ball chopping: free publicity. Timed right with the release of the CD. Did I mention animals are assholes? That should be the end of the story. But hold the phone - we're dealing with PETA. Bong - cuckoo! As you see, I made a typically poopy quip in the ad: "Get Neutered - It Didn't Hurt Clay Aiken." It actually wasn't my first choice. I really wanted "Chop 'Em Off - They Didn't Taste That Great Anyway." But PETA was jonesing for the Clay joke. Whatever. Just give me my pub and go back to your spray painting. Turns out PETA had an ax to grind with Clay. They released the ad and a press release, quoting Clay talking trash about cats, like "Cats are Satan." Never mind that Clay keeds. They quoted Clay saying "I ran over a kitten when I was 16." Never mind that they left out the part where Clay said it was an accident that haunts him to this day. (click here to read his quote) Well played, PETA. And I thought I was the pub whore. So here I am -- caught in the middle of crappy tunes and looney tunes... when all I wanted was to whore myself. Of course, I have to stand with Clay, even if they hadn't twisted his quotes. This is about a basic human and animal right that must be preserved... the right to poop, to joke, to keed. Look, I sing "Cats Are C***s" on the CD, but I keed. I don't hate cats. I've even banged a few in my day. Just never let a cat give you a hand job." |
