Clay Aiken, Claymates and Hexes

I received a lot of hate comments, email and one phone call. My http://www.confessionsofapaparazzi.com/ blog got over 18 comments, my http://www.phillychitchat.com/ blog got over 63 comments, and mike swears he only left one.*** I think the Clay Aiken fans put a hex on me, yesterday my 7 month old Nikon's auto focus has failed and I have to put it in the shop for a few weeks. Then Tonight my mother-in-law, who is a grandmom, expressed her disappointment in my blog and my comments about Clay, even if he wasn't nice to the girl from Iceland. She said "Maybe he was hot and tired, it was awfully hot last week. Oh and those lights while you are on stage, very hot!" Mike and I leave for Yellowstone, The Grand Tetons and Glacier National Park in a few days. So last night I had to run to a store about 45 miles aways to buy a new camera, because when you go on a trip of a lifetime, you gotta have a camera. Of course now I need to read the instructions as I bought the next model up from a D80, the D200 and its complicated. Today is my birthday. I will be shooting just one event tonight. The Philadelphia Film Festival is over on Tuesday (I don't think I could have asked one more person to pose for me!! [those pixs never make it to the blog]), I think I will have a mini depression for celebrity excitement waiting for Fashion Week to start in NYC in September. But my web site is almost finished. I lost 6lbs since I started seeing my trainer a few weeks back, now I am on my way to not body checking other paparazzi while chasing Britney, Paris or some other hot magazine selling chick. I am so blessed with many good fortunes, Mike and friends; friends that put up with my long absences from their lives, as I chase my dreams. Thanks!! I hear the girl who owns this car is going to auction off this car and donate the money to Clay's charity. If that is true I have a newspaper reporter who wants to interview you and give you some good press. UPDATE: Thanks to Michael Klein he found the Claymate who owns this car and wrote a piece about it in his column - See Photos: http://www.philly.com/inquirer/columnists/michael_klein/20070722_Inqlings___These_Iverson_items_no_giveaway.html

You do know the girl from Iceland got a mett and greet with him after the show ( and it's not the first concert she's been to, And she's met him before), as did several people in wheelchaires. Iceland girl had no problems with Clay, You sure did though.

Er, you know there's no celebrities in Yellowstone right?

Enjoy the much needed and no doubt well deserved break!

Thanks for the folks who notified me that my photo of Cookie's car was in the Philly Inquirer yesterday. I was too busy to read the paper, wish I had it would have been a blast to discover it myself!!

I am the Icelandic Clay fan you were talking about.
I had no problem with Clay, he was being funny at the concert.
And YES I got to meet him after the show and he was incredibly nice to me.
I will cherish that memory forever.
That is why I am very upset by your post.
My appreciation for him has gone up a thousand percent after my experience
