Clay Aiken got his very own caricature from Sardi’s Restaurant this past Tuesday, for his Broadway debut in the musical Spamalot. How nice for him. Receiving a Sardi’s caricature is a big deal on Broadway, so the fact that he got one must mean they feel he really deserves it. Although, this drawing doesn’t really seem to be a caricature at all. Caricatures are supposed to exaggerate some traits but this one looks über flattering.

Aiken told People:

“At the end of the day, Parker is the most important thing of the year, and of my life, without question. Having a son and that type of responsibility is obviously going to be something that I remember forever.”

“I want to spend time with Parker. He’s still uber-dependent,” Aiken says, laughing. “I’m ready for him to start talking. I’m ready for a little action!”

Congratulations on your new baby, your successful run on Broadway, and for having your caricature in Sardis , Clay.

Now this is interesting news!  The proud mama to be who is due in August is a music producer and sister of famous music producer David Foster.  Apparently she’s produced some of Clay’s albums and they’ve been good friends for some time now.

The baby was conceived by artificial insemination and Clay plans on actively participating in the parenting part of the gig!
