Clay Aiken
I know that I've got big ears and a big forehead and that my hair sticks up, but I'm happy with myself. I'm not necessarily trying to win a beauty pageant here.

UNICEF is working for the survival of children worldwide. What can we do to get more Americans committed to the cause?
Clay Aiken
It's important that I make a difference in some way. It's not necessarily how I make a difference, but I want to make sure that I do.
Clay Aiken
I decided to study special education and fell in love with working with individuals with autism. That's what I planned to do with my life.
Clay Aiken
The message I'll share...is that inclusion is extremely important for kids with and without disabilities.
Clay Aiken
I don't understand why people like me! It doesn't make any sense!
Clay Aiken
I like to talk. I'm a terrible dancer. I love my hometown. I have freckles and oversized ears. I'm a geeks. I have tried not to hide who I am or what matters to me.
