Comments on: Kimberley Locke Still Pals With Ruben Studdard, But Not Clay Aiken http://popdirt.com/kimberley-locke-still-pals-with-ruben-studdard-but-not-clay-aiken/70544/ Mon, 23 Nov 2009 03:26:08 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Jerry http://popdirt.com/kimberley-locke-still-pals-with-ruben-studdard-but-not-clay-aiken/70544/#comment-8064 Jerry Mon, 27 Jul 2009 08:24:22 +0000 http://popdirt.com/?p=70544#comment-8064 Just for the record? Clay isn't perfect himself, so let's get that fact across, too. For instance, I noticed 'psf' said this above: "Please name me ONE person whom Clay has dissed publicly." Well, some time after this story was posted, he dissed Adam Lambert from this year's American Idol competition. He did apologize later, but talk about letting jealousy fly. Ha. Not thinking before speaking, were we Clay? Just for the record? Clay isn’t perfect himself, so let’s get that fact across, too.

Actually, I will continue to be a fan of hers as long as she doesn't bring up any disputes with Clay again. But I was disappointed in what she said about Clay here. Whatever arguments they had, she could have been polite in public. I know he was. I bet neither of them are "perfect" in real life. Maybe I would hate being roommates with both of them. That doesn't mean I'd diss them to the world. I don’t hate Kim at all. Actually, I will continue to be a fan of hers as long as she doesn’t bring up any disputes with Clay again.

Please name me ONE person whom Clay has dissed publicly. There is no one. However, Kim is very vocal whenever she can't get along with someone. Now tell me, who has more class? Private disagreements between celebs should be kept private for dignity'a sake. The only one who looks bad is the one doing the whining.

She was sleeping with the son of the producer of AI2 during Idol. The BIG question how do we know for sure she kept his secret? She was sleeping with the son of the producer of AI2 during Idol.

She is so tacky. She's jealous of Clay because of his sucess, while hers never got of the ground. And now she's dating a married man. Way to go Kim. I am so sick of Kimberley. She is so tacky.

Now Kim has made it worse by implying there was something wrong when they roomed together. That shows little or no class. She doesn't have to like Clay, but she should keep her mouth shut and don't try to start rumors. I believe that there is more to the dispute and Clay is classy enough not to keep bringing it up.

Most thought she should have been in the Final 2 w/him on AI2 instead of Ruben. It was only when she showed her true colors during this incident that many turned on her. She publicized a potential Clay/Ruben/Kim tour before anyone had agreed to it. Clay's fans expressed disappointment over it & Clay blogged that it was not going to happen, he would be touring solo. Kim threw a hissy fit because she knew her only chance to have a viable tour was riding Clay's coattails, as she has often tried to do. Even the other gals on AI2 have said that Kim glommed onto Clay because of his popularity. So now she is telling everyone that she refuses to speak to Clay. Clay has never said one word publicly against her. Ever. In fact, he spent 2 tours of his own promoting her first album, without ever once mentioning his own CD which was out at the time. Yes, she kept a confidence, but so did everyone else who knew Clay. It was common decency & not some big favor she did him. What kind of dispicable person would have outed him against his will, anyway, besides the slugs like Perez who do it for a living?

I used to feel sorry for her when every interviewer asked about her roommate rather than just her music career. But she lost me when she announced a tour to Billboard without knowing for sure that Ruben and Clay were both on board. Blaming Billboard and Clay instead of taking responsibility for her own words didn't cut it for me. I’m sure Kim got tired of questions about Clay five years ago.

If Kimberley truly did say that they were contemplating a tour and it wasn't published that way I wonder why she never mentioned it again until when Clsy was asked and he said there were no plans for a tour. Then Kim got upset. I notice in this last blast from Kimberley she is intimating that Clay was a slob, was that necessary if she truly wanted to keep things cool? I don't think I have ever heard Clay say one single thing wrong about Kimberley other than they were friends. First it is published that she said they were working on a tour, now she says basically he was a slob and didn't respect her space. Doesn't sound like Kimberley is playing nice. I give Clay credit for not uttering one word negatively about Kim even though she has blasted him now a few times. I say he is the one with moral and class... Credit given for keeping his secret.

She mis spoke and she is totally responsible for that misunderstanding. Sadly, she has had a little resentment toward Clay for years because of all of his success. As for keeping his secret, it wasn't her business to share that private and personal information. In fact, it isn't anyone's business but Clay's and good for her for knowing that.
