Former American Idol contestant Clay Aiken has admitted that he didn’t think much of this year’s runner up Adam Lambert.

Now I don’t pay $29.95 a year to read the ramblings of Mr Aiken but some of you do and thanks for emailing me the following quote from his blog. He said:

I couldn’t be happier with the way AI ended this year. I only turn the show on once a season and only to see what the set looks like. This year, I happened to turn it on during the minute that Adam Lambert was singing “Ring of Fire,” and, at that moment, thought my ears would bleed. Contrived, awful, and slightly frightening! I wasn’t really a fan and found myself surprised whenever folks told me that they liked him.
