Does this seem weird to you? Entertainment Weekly’s Hollywood Insider is reporting that both Clay Aiken and Ciara will appear in Cycle 12 of America’s Next Top Model. Apparently Clay, who most recently starred in Broadway’s will come on board for an acting challenge.
A rep from the the confirmed Clay’s appearance to US Weekly. He will appear and act as guest judge on the April 8 episode.
Ciara, the popstar who dates Bow Wow and recently released the album Fantasy Ride appears to help out with a photo shoot.
Do either of these appearances make sense to you? Clay, while decent on Broadway, doesn’t seem like the best choice to judge an acting challenge, let alone an entire panel. He must be the guest judge for the first commercial (around the final 5 or 6). Otherwise, this makes no sense at all. Especially since EW is claiming Clay and Ciara show up on the same episode? How often does that happen?
Ciara might come on board to show the girls how to pose for an ad or an album cover? I’m not entirely sure. Musical muses were brought on board was when Tyra herself decided the ANTMers needed to star in her own music video “Shake Ya Body” (which you can relive in perpetuity on YouTube) on Cycle 2. Enrique Iglesias made an appearance in Cycle 9, when the girls appeared in his music video. Lisa and Heather came 1-2 in the challenge, which meant their roles were larger.
A few months ago, it was revealed that Christian Siriano would make a guest appearance in Cycle 12 as well. At least he’s a celebrity who would make sense. Not only is he in fashion, he came to fashion fame via reality television, by winning season four of Project Runway.
What do you think of Clay and Ciara making ANTM appearances?

It’s probably true that Big Gay Clay will be on ANTM, as Tyra, apparently, has a thing for gayelles. He can show the models how NOT to wear makeup and how NOT to dress. He looks like he shops at the Salvation Army.

Ciara is not just a singer she is actually signed to Wilhemina Models. She did a 4 page spread for Elle in their January issue.

Clay is a cool guy and good friends with Tyra in real life. Don’t underestimate him. Tyra knows what she is doing better than you do.

I’ve only seen Clay Aiken when he was on Tyra’s talk show . They had a great time together . He is very funny . Ciara will be a more traditional guest . Another good choice . I will definitely look forward to this .
