08-08-2008 CONGRATULATIONS CLAY
Raleigh, N.C. - Clay Aiken became a father Friday morning with the birth of a baby boy, his mother told WRAL's Lynda Loveland in an exclusive interview. Aiken's best friend, producer Jaymes Foster, gave birth at 8:08 a.m. at an undisclosed location in North Carolina.

Parker Foster Aiken weighed 6 pounds 2 ounces and was 19 inches long. Aiken's mother, Faye, said the baby has dark hair and that her son is smiling from ear-to-ear. Mom, dad and baby all are doing fine. Aiken and Foster will raise the child together. They met when Aiken appeared on American Idol. Foster has produced several of his albums.

Clay Aiken Returns For Encore Engagement!

August 13, NEW YORK - Clay Aiken will return to the scene of his triumphant Broadway debut in the Tony Award-winning Best Musical, Monty Python's SPAMALOT this Fall.  Clay's debut on Broadway earlier this year was met with wild enthusiasm from both his legion of fans and the New York press.  He will reprise the role of  'Sir Robin' at the Shubert Theatre from September 19 2008 - January 4 2009.

When he made his Broadway debut in SPAMALOT at the beginning of this year, Newsday said "Aiken is a charmer" and the Associated Press said that "Clay Aiken deftly handles supremely silly."

Clay Aiken became a music superstar following his success on the "American Idol" television series, and has sold more than six million albums; co-authored a best-selling book; and, played six sold-out concert tours, said "Since leaving SPAMALOT in May, jokes have just not been funny. Food has lost its taste. The grass is no longer green -- the sky no longer blue. And, babies WON'T stop crying!! I'm so excited about coming back to the funniest show in the world!"

This spring, Aiken released his fourth album, On My Way Here, his first album of original songs since his 2003 chart topping, double platinum debut Measure of a Man. On My Way Here's debut in Billboard Magazine's Top 5 continued his streak of all four of his albums having debuted in the Top 5. 

Directed by Mike Nichols, who won his eighth Tony Award for his direction of the new musical, Monty Python's SPAMALOT has a book by Eric Idle, "lovingly ripped-off" from the screenplay of the Pythons' best- loved film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail by Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin.  The music is by Eric Idle and John Du Prez.

Tickets are available online now at telecharge.com or by calling 212-239-6200 / 800-432-7250.

Other members of the SPAMALOT creative team include Casey Nicholaw - choreography, multiple Olivier Award-winners Tim Hatley - sets and costumes and Hugh Vanstone - lighting and Acme Sound Partners.

Winning more awards than any other show in the 2005 Broadway Season, including the Tony Award for Best Musical and the Grammy Award for Best Cast Recording, SPAMALOT has set box office records since opening on Broadway to critical acclaim in March, 2005 at the flagship Shubert Theatre.

Monty Python's SPAMALOT is currently running in London's West End at the Palace Theatre and is also on National Tour around the US.  Monty Python's SPAMALOT is produced by Boyett Ostar Productions, The Shubert Organization, Arielle Tepper, Stephanie McClelland/Lawrence Horowitz, Elan V. McAllister/Allan S. Gordon, Independent Presenters Network, Roy Furman, GRS Associates, Jam Theatricals, TGA Entertainment and Live Nation.

Clay Aiken Debuts at #4 on the Billboard Top 200 Charts!
(NEW YORK - May 14, 2008) - Clay Aiken's RCA/19 Recordings album, ON MY WAY HERE debuts this week at #4 with 94,071 units sold this week. Released on May 6th, ON MY WAY HERE is Aiken's fourth album, fourth Top 5 debut, and his first album of original songs since his 2003 chart topping, double platinum debut Measure of a Man.

The title track and first single from the album "On My Way Here" debuted at #1 on the AOL streaming chart the week of release, rocketed to #1 on the Amazon chart the week it was made available as a pre-release, and debuted at #1 on the Amazon download chart on release day.

Aiken debuted songs from his new album on a special "QVC Presents QSessions Live" event on Monday, April 28. Wal-Mart also released an exclusive, limited edition version of the album, which featured a different album cover and a bonus track "Forget I Ever Knew You."

Aiken made television appearances on Good Morning America, The View, The Today Show, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, Insider, Extra!, E!, CNN, ABC Nightline, Fox News, and CBS News Path, all the week of release. Additionally, he appeared on AOL Sessions the week of release, and is scheduled to appear on Rachael Ray and Jimmy Kimmel Live on May 16th, and the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on May 19th.

ON MY WAY HERE chronicles Aiken's experiences over the past five years, ascending from the runner up on American Idol to pop superstar. The album’s theme came to Aiken when he and his executive producer Jaymes Foster fell in love with a song co-written by Ryan Tedder called "On My Way Here." The message of the lyrics — how the lessons we learn while growing up shape us into who we become as adults — struck a very deep chord with the artist.

CLAYS THOUGHTS ON SPAMALOT:
Having sold more than 6 million albums, co-authored a best-selling book, and played 6 sold-out concert tours, Clay is now ready to tackle the Great White Way. "I really couldn't have asked for a more wonderful group of people to work with. Let's not lie, the chance to work with legendary creative minds like Mike Nichols and Eric Idle is, on its own, a reason to jump at this opportunity. But, that's not all. The producers and creative folks I have had the chance to meet and work with so far have been unbelievably welcoming and wonderful. They've really made me feel at home already, and I haven't even started yet!"

ABOUT THE SHOW: MONTY PYTHONS SPAMALOT:
Telling the legendary tale of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, and their quest for the Holy Grail, Monty Python's SPAMALOT features a chorus line of dancing divas and knights, flatulent Frenchmen, killer rabbits and one legless knight who create unforgettable musical production numbers. SPAMALOT is currently playing on Broadway and in London, Las Vegas, on a US National Tour, and in Australia.
