Is this really news to anyone?

Put this under things that make you go, "Hmm."
Clay Aiken is gay. This is just such a surprise. Who knew?
(Um, I think that would be anyone who has ever seen or heard him.)
I thought it was hilarious when I saw this online yesterday. Someone felt that this "announcement" was newsworthy. I think everyone already knew this so it really wasn't news, was it? Aren't there more important things to report? Seriously!
