Clay Aiken: I'm a sperm donor, not a musician

"I don't really consider myself a musician so much as I consider myself just an entertainer," says American Idol runnerup and newly outed sperm donor Clay Aiken.

We agree. We've never seen him as a musician. But it's even harder for us to picture Spermalot as a daddy.

And yet TMZ reports that Jaymes Foster, a record producer and Clay's best friend, is the baby mama.

We're told Foster, who produced several Aiken CDs, is due in August. She's the sister of record mogul David Foster. We're told she's in her late 40's, though we could not confirm her exact age. She divorced a few years back and has no kids. Aiken is 29.

We're told Foster was artificially inseminated. But Clay is a lot more than sperm -- we're told he will have an active role in raising the child.

What's that sound? Is it a Partridge Family sequel?
