Ruben and clay developed a friendship throughout that competition that has lasted still and they perform together on occasion . Clay also had a good performance. this was a nice change from the first season where Justin was clearly way outmatch by Kelly ! and it was more about if he and Paula were having a fling ! Season 2 put a stamp on Idol for a long time ! Ruben was always hilarious , as he would sing with a smile, but after he was done would have that look on his face like you just Fd up his mamas cooking recipe and fed it to him LOL
