In the eye of the music industry, you're either a womanizer or you're gay. Then there is Clay Aiken, who isnt any of those. Derr.

An incredibly attractive man with a caring personality, amazing voice, and crazy beautiful eyes. He can multi task like nobody's business. He has thousands of women swooning over him.
Being a runner up has never been sweeter :)

A sexy, beastly man who really did win American Idol, but lost to Ruben Studdard because the judges forgot to use Q-Tips the previous nights.
Paula: Why is that colossal man dripping sweat all over the stage, Simon?
Simon: I don't know, but I like it! Much better than that scrabbly little dork over there, Clay Aiken. Too bad I cannot hear him for my excess earwax has blocked my eardrums.
Paula: Yeah, too bad.

A gay person, he likes men. Non-attractive person. I bet he smells and he didnt win american idol because he sucks.

The guy who didn't win American Idol simply because Ruben is black. Face it, it's the truth. Now, I'm not a fan of either of them OR the show itself, but listen to Ruben's songs and then Clay's songs and honestly try to tell me with a straight face that Ruben deserved to win. Incidentally, the black community recently accused American Idol of being "racist" and "discriminatory" despite the fact that 2 out of three winners were black. Bullshit. "Sorry for 2004"? How bout "Sorry for rigging the contest"?

In any competition, when the receiver of second place or a runner-up ends up becoming more successful than the actual winner. This is open to interpretation, of course.
Typically associated with the case of Clay Aiken on American Idol, who didn't actually win, but who has become a more commonly-heard name than winner Ruben Studdard.

Billy ended up becoming a CEO, even though he got second place in the science fair in 4th grade. The first place winner, Paul, lives in his grandma's basement. This is an example of the Clay Aiken Effect.
