ET broke the news on Tuesday that new dad Clay Aiken has come out with his sexual identity, and now we have a first look at his revealing, two-part interview with Diane Sawyer on today's "Good Morning America."
"I can't raise a kid and teach him how to lie, teach him to hide things; I can't raise a kid and teach him to keep secrets," the singer tells Sawyer about his decision to publicly acknowledge that he's gay. "And at the same time, I also don't ever want to raise him in an environment where it's not okay for him to be exactly who he is, no matter what."
The former "American Idol" runner-up is currently performing on Broadway in Spamalot and released his fourth studio album, On My Way Here, this summer. He graces the cover of the new People magazine, on newsstands tomorrow, with the headline, "Yes, I'm Gay," pictured cradling his newborn son Parker, born via in vitro fertilization.
"[It's] an obvious time to just, you know, let the guard down and say, 'I have a responsibility for someone other than myself now,'" the performer tells Sawyer.
Clay has been a special correspondent for ET and "The Insider," performing on our stage, interviewing stars on the "Reba" set and even covering the 2005 Emmys for us.
