Clay's album (the first one) sold like triple what Kelly's did. He then got caught up in 19Evils web where they decided that he would be the next Barry Manilow. That cheesy Christmas special was the last straw for him. He hired an uber-lawyer (the same one Mario got) and wiggled out from that terrible contract.

He is now working on releasing HIS album - which will include songs that he wrote - later this year. He just had to take time out to work and to give some space between him & 19Evil.
He's also a UNICEF ambassador for education and has pretty much been out of the country for a good chunk of the year. He's touring this summer on the east coast. And I hate to correct, but actually he was out of his contract with 19E when that special aired. Oops. Yeah it was weird and lots of fans thought so. Can't win em all I suppose.

Ruben (according to my local paper), is a top ten Gospel recording artist. Apparently he's got a tour and new album in the works as well.

Fantasia... I can't remember what my paper said. She was doing... something. I don't really care though.
