Visibly, it shouldn’t look too different to you, at least in this portion of the blog.

First up: Crystal Bowersox said she is bisexual after releasing a Christmas song "Coming Out for Christmas."

"I've been bisexual for, I don't know, as long as I can remember," she says during an interview on "Good Day LA." "I just remember being made fun of in junior high … It was something that was shameful and it really shouldn't be."

She was married to musician Brian Walker from October, 2010 to March, 2013.

Clay Aiken is reportedly considering a run for an open House seat in North Carolina, according to the Washington Blade.

Aiken has not commented about the speculation. He is looking into running as a Democrat in a district that is heavily Republican.

The occasional entertainer has run and won office, including singer Sonny Bono (mayor), actor Arnold Schwarzenegger (governor), wrestler Jesse Ventura (governor) and Fred Grandy of "Love Boat" fame (House rep).
