Well, my point was this.....Clay is a typical "born and bred to be in the talent show" kind of guy. Ruben, on the other hand, is a genuine sort of guy. Yes, he's fat, but he's the real deal....and he can always go on a diet.

Both might have an impact on a different segment of the market, but I'd much rather listen to Ruben....
Besides, smooth R&B artists, like Luther Vandros, seem to have more resilient careers. They might not be hot for three years in a row, but people with buy their music for years to come. Whereas artists like Clay are a dime a dozen. Here today, gone tomorrow.

I heard that Justin Timberlake claimed that there's "something satanic about the show." He claimes that it's blastphamous (sp?) how they herd the singers like cattle and play god in the sense that they tell them how to sing and what to sing.

first of all... this is JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, freaking former boy band member.

secondly, they get a choice from a range of songs, they're not told what to sing. I doubt anyone ever told Clay "Look really gay when you sing... *snicker snicker* oh and do this thing with your hips in one song... *hehe*"

Anyway, Clay sings a variety of things and looks much better on stage. Ruben stands still, sweats, and sings the same thing over and ovre again. That'll get old if/when he gets a record label. I do think Ruben will be cool with interviews like on TRL and stuff, but I don't watch it anyway I jsut listen to the radio when I'm driving. so...

Clay all the way.

I was kidding......I am a honkey myself.

Not that it should matter, of course.

**Crono1000** · 05-21-2003, 01:40 PM

that is true though.

Ruben has the black populations vote, as well as a lot of white people's votes.

Clay has the rest of the white people's votes... which mostly is made up of the south eastern region and nations gay population.

So I'll go rally up some ol' farmboys, but the rest is up to you and your people MJ!

Sorry MJ......maybe you can catch Clay at Six Fags..er, I meant Flags.

At least clay want be the next spokesperson for Jenny Craig or Subway. I can see it now, Reuben will have his very own jingle for subway like Jared

. My god, Reuben sweated enough to drown a baby last night.

Did anyone catch the difference in votes... out of $24 MILLION votes there was only a 1,335 vote difference!!!

Also, Simon said they both had record deals and was going to release both albums the same week!

Kelly is such a sweetie... that PLATINUM record plaque is going to look great hanging on her wall

Anyone notice that Josh isn't in the group that is going on tour... guess he decided to stay at home and go back to his unit

Josh got sent back to his unit overseas. He had to take a special leave from the marines just to join the show. Once he got kicked out, it was back to work.
