Clay Aiken CAIKEN051107_preg.jpg

So we've been holding off reporting about Clay Aiken's sperm allegedly having been artificially inseminated in his 50 year-old record producer Jaymes Foster, until we could get confirmation of the story ourselves.

Well we still don't have Aiken's peeps telling us he's gonna be a dad, but now we have another little nugget of news ...

Seems someone close to Jaymes' brother David Foster, told another website the story is true but when we called the gentleman, he said he never confirmed or denied the story and that he was misquoted -- huh???

Misquoted or have Foster family members gotten on the line with him and bitched him out for spilling the beans?

So what we're left with is ... is Clay Aiken's music producer pregnant with her client/friend of ambiguous sexuality's child? Or is this some kinda online hoax?!
