Corey Clark Family, Parents and Siblings

Clark was born in San Bernardino, California, to Duane and Jan Clark, two singers who met on the road in Nashville, Tennessee in early 1978 while following their own musical aspirations.

Duane, an R&B and disco singer who sang in San Bernardino nightclubs and opened for Al Wilson and B. B. King and recorded and performed with the James Last Orchestra and the Hamburg Symphony Orchestra, is of African American, Cherokee, Apache, and Blackfoot descent. Jan Clark, the Hungarian-Ukrainian, Jewish, Irish, French, Cherokee, and Algonquian great-granddaughter of a Budapest concert pianist, met Duane in Nashville while she worked in nightclubs specializing in R&B and Barbra Streisand.

The multiracial nature of the Clarks’ relationship and of Corey’s heritage was a source of racial conflict for the family during the Clarks’ early years in Lufkin, Texas, where Corey recalls a story his parents told him about; a December 1979 incident in which the couple was driving to church for a Christmas event, with Duane dressed as Santa Claus, when they were pulled over by a white police officer, who smashed one of the car’s taillights, and told Duane he was being pulled over and arrested for driving with a broken tail light.

He is the older brother of WNBA player Alysha Clark.

Corey Clark Career

Clark’s interest in music began at a young age, with his first vivid memory being of his parents, aunt Audrey, and his father’s band recording a demo tape in a Denver studio.

He began singing at school functions and concerts at the age of 11 after attending concerts by Boyz II Men, TLC, and Montell Jordan. Clark’s first professional singing job came when he was 13 years old, when Debbie Byrd, a family friend, and vocal coach who later worked on American Idol, recruited him and his parents to be backup singers for Barry Manilow during a week-long appearance in Las Vegas.

Although Manilow was not a favorite of Clark’s, he realized his dream during this engagement, saying,

When the curtain went up the first night, I was floored by the response from the sell-out crowd. I’d never been on stage as a professional singer before, and I got to see someone at the peak of his career working the stage and the audience. Every night he made his performance feel fresh, not just going through the motions. Experiencing the energy of a live show wasn’t at all like listening to a tape or a CD, I realized. It was magical. I was hooked!

Clark began and performed as the lead vocalist in an R&B vocal group called Envy when he was 14 years old. Ne-Yo, Solomon Ridge, and Ray Blaylock were also members of the now-Grammy-winning group.

Envy competed in several talent shows before winning the grand prize in a Las Vegas amateur singing contest a few years later. Envy has also opened for major artists such as Ma and Destiny’s Child, as well as performed during Amateur Night at New York’s famed Apollo Theater in Harlem.

The band signed a recording contract in 2000, but nothing came of it, and the band disbanded after eight years of touring. Clark and his family relocated to Nashville, where he auditioned for the reality TV music competition show American Idol while working as a stagehand in 2002; he has been described as “one of the most impressive top ten finalists of the talent search’s second season.” Clark considers reaching the top 32 finalists during that season to be his proudest achievement.

Corey Clark Relationship with Paula Abdul

Clark began making allegations about his relationship with Abdul two years later. Clark stated in his E-book, They Told Me to Tell the Truth, So…: The Sex, Lies, and Paulatics of One of America’s Idols, and in a May 2005 interview with ABC’s Primetime Live that beginning on December 12, 2002, Idol judge Paula Abdul took him under her wing and coached him on how to succeed in the competition, including helping him select the right songs, clothes, and hairstyle, in order to avoid the show’s”

Clark provided as evidence of his relationship with Paula Abdul a message left on his voice mail, multiple eyewitness accounts of Clark and Abdul being intimate in public places, accounts by Clark’s parents of Abdul calling their home looking for Clark, a bottle of prescription-strength cough medicine prescribed to Abdul in Clark’s possession, and phone records of Abdul and Clark speaking to each other for several hours at a time during late-night huddles.

Abdul dismissed Clark’s claims as lies, saying she would not “dignify Clark’s claims with a response,” adding, “Not only do I never lie, but I never respond to lies.” Clark saw Abdul, the show, and the network as attempting to cover up the matter, as did the show’s other judges and some of the show’s former contestants.

Clark denies that his timing was a marketing ploy, saying, “If I wanted publicity, I could have done it two years ago when they were first trying to defame my name.”

Clark claims Abdul and the producers engaged in a character assassination campaign against him that he couldn’t afford to fight or ignore and accuses them of spreading lies about him throughout the industry in order to ruin his career.

Second season semi-finalist Nasheka Sidall, who stated on Primetime Live that she first heard “whispers” about the affair soon after her time on the show as a contestant, and fellow second season finalist Trenyce, who corroborated Clark’s claims on CNN’s Showbiz Tonight, were among the other former contestants who publicly backed Clark’s claims.

Clark also points to the fact in his e-book that his Idol roommates Ricky Smith and Ruben Studdard were never asked for their views on the validity of his claims, but that third season winner Fantasia Barrino was questioned as to her opinion about Clark’s allegations, which Clark saw as an attempt by Fox or its investigators to use Barrino’s following to bias the public against Clark. As Clark states:

All I have to say about it is that I have neither personally met Fantasia Barrino, nor have I ever competed against her on the same season of Idol, so there is no way that she could have accurately given a description to anybody, publicly or personally, about my or Paula’s actions during my time as a contestant on American Idol.

In August 2005, the investigators concluded that Clark’s claims of a sexual relationship “have not been substantiated by any corroborating evidence or witnesses, including those provided by Mr. Clark, and Ms. Abdul expressly denies that any such relationship ever existed,” following an internal investigation by an independent counsel appointed by Fox, which included interviews with Abdul, Clark, and other witnesses. According to the investigators, “Ms. Abdul acknowledges that she had telephone conversations with Mr. Clark while he was a contestant.”

Their accounts of those conversations, however, differ greatly, and no evidence was found to reconcile the discrepancies in their accounts.” The network announced that Abdul could continue judging on future seasons of American Idol, adding, “The line is whether it affects the outcome of the competition… It is first and foremost the sanctity of the competition.”

In the fourth season finale of American Idol, Fox televised a parody of Clark’s claims, in which judge Simon Cowell was alleged to be having an affair with himself. The parody was very close in plot to the Primetime Live story. Clark released a statement that the parody offended him, and was an “insult to the intelligence of the viewer”.
