I'm not 'grasping the preface ..'Miss American Idol'reference? I know you are a fan,so I don't think you're trying to use it in a disrespect. Care to explain it,and I'll be grateful.Thanks
it's just a humorous take on the pageantry in the American Idol process - with each finalist taking their tirn on stage to be judged by the public.
The 'Miss' thing is getting me a bit confused. Why is Clay 'Miss American Idol'? At first I thought it was just Clay and Kelly and Carrie but now I see even Ruben is Miss and so is Daughtry so that confuses me.
Other than that, great blog. I love that Clay is doing well and times are going to get even better for Clay! Thanks.

oh, hang on! I've seen your explanation to Marty. Thanks.
Yeah, sounds like a gay slam. gay man addressed as "Miss" - homophobic language.
there is absolutely nothing homophobic about Direct2Music.
Please read with the good natured humor in which it is written.
