GAY STUFF: Clay Aiken and Li-Lo Come Out!!!

No really. This is not a joke.

Here are the reports:

It looks as if two big stars — Lindsay Lohan and Clay Aiken — are coming out this week.

The Perez Hilton gossip Web site Tuesday ran what it claims is a copy of the Oct. 6 People magazine cover, showing a photo of Aiken holding his infant son, Parker Foster Aiken. The headline reads: "New dad Clay Aiken — Yes, I'm Gay." A secondary headline reads: "The 'Idol' star opens up about his emotional decision to come out: 'I cannot raise a child to lie or hide things.'"

Hilton's Web site had no other information on the supposed story, and People magazine was not commenting Tuesday. People's Web site invited readers to return this morning for the "full scoop on Clay Aiken."

Aiken has long refused to discuss his love life, despite persistent rumors. His child, born Aug. 8, was conceived via in vitro fertilization with Jaymes Foster, his longtime pal and record producer.

Meanwhile, Lohan on Tuesday publicly confirmed for the first time she is in a romantic relationship with disc jockey Samantha Ronson. During an interview with Los Angeles radio station KROQ's Ted Stryker (the talk dealt mainly with Lohan's thoughts on the plane crash that left DJ AM and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker critically injured and killed four others), Lohan was asked how long she'd been "going out" with Ronson, prompting a laugh from Lohan.

"A very long time," she said after a pause.

And the whole gay world goes "we know!"

Oh, and Ellen Degeneres comes out against Proposition 8 -- finally.

And Happy National Bisexuality Day (albeit a day late!)
