Great White Way Ridiculous

Posted Jan 21st 2008 2:07PM by TMZ Staff

Clay Aiken's Saturday night debut in Broadway's "Spamalot" was full of absurdity -- and not because of Monty Python's material.


As Aiken made his debut at Broadway's "Spamalot" on Saturday, TMZ was in the house and -- believe us -- the Shubert Theater was full of middle-aged housewives (who comprise the Claymates) elbowed and bitched their way through a crazy throng to get their Romeo's autograph.

If Kelly Ripa doesn't want him touching her, there are definitely plenty of 40-and-overs who do!

4. For a small guy he has a super-sized tool. I caught a glimpse of him geting undressed in the locker room at LA Fitness and was in awe! Seems that some people have it all.

8. I don't care what he looks like, Clay Aikens has the voice of an angel. And by the way.........I'm not 40.

9. Why doesn't this loser just COME OUT of the closet already!!?! He would be much more interesting if he did. Lance Bass came out and all of a sudden people started to notice (and like) him.

11. Saw the original show and it was great. Good for Clay - looks like he's having a good time. I'm still trying to find all those over-40 housewives in the stage door video though. I'm seeing plenty of young women and men mixed in with the crowd. How do you know who's the housewife?

12. What's with the ageism, TMZ? Last i checked Harvey Levin was way over 40 himself. Are people supposed to stop going to Broadway shows when they hit 40? Most of the cast is over 40. Should they be kicked out too?

13. Seriously, I'd like TMZ to answer just what is "ridiculous" and/or absurd about being over 40?

14. Where are all the middle aged ladies? In the video I only found 2 in a huge crowd. What's with all the nasty comments huh? He's a huge talent and apparently a big star with tons of fans.

15. I think he looks great, and he does an amazing job as Sir Robin. I'm looking forward to seeing the show. btw, I find Lance Bass a total bore either in or out of the closet.
