Ricky Martin: I am a Fortunate Homosexual Man

In a candid blog posted on his Web site, singer Ricky Martin comes out, revealing that he is gay.

Ricky spoke about his fears, writing: "Many people told me: 'Ricky it's not important,' 'it's not worth it,' 'all the years you've worked and everything you've built will collapse,' 'many people in the world are not ready to accept your truth, your reality, your nature.' Because all this advice came from people who I love dearly, I decided to move on with my life not sharing with the world my entire truth. Allowing myself to be seduced by fear and insecurity became a self-fulfilling prophecy of sabotage. Today I take full responsibility for my decisions and my actions."

The "Livin' La Vida Loca" singer continues, "These years in silence and reflection made me stronger and reminded me that acceptance has to come from within and that this kind of truth gives me the power to conquer emotions I didn't even know existed."

The father of twins ended his blog post writing, "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am."

I'm shocked. Completely and utterly shocked. <end deadpan>

Didn't we already know this already? I'm glad he came out on his terms.

We knew, Ricky, we already knew.

But still, I'm very proud and happy to have him as part of the voice

And I bet all my money that Perez is gonna start SNIFFING THE F!CK out of R.Martin because he's that shameless.

Well this is about as shocking as when Clay Aiken came out.....

Is this tied into some attempt at a comeback? (I know that the producers of the upcoming New york revival of Evita want him to play Che. Yes, seriously).

It's such a wonderfully awkwardly worded quote he's used too. I suppose I'm a fortunate hoosexual too, though not nearly as much of a rich homosexual as he is.

Yeah, it's sorta eccentric. Hopefully an interview hound gets on him and gets his full story out. Or maybe we'll just have to wait for the memoirs.

Since you brought it up...hmmmmm....A Ricky and Clay romance??

EWwwwww....Nahhhhhhhhhhhhh

GOD no. Clay is just...I don't even know. Remember when he appeared on Idol a few seasons ago all dark-sidey?

I know it's mean to say but Clay kinda repulses me. (Didn't some sex site chat of his on manhunt or one of those other sites I would *never* use personally, leak? )

Ricky interviews tend to be a bit mushy/bizarre anyway. I remember when he avoided the sexuality question before and he started blabbering on about how we're all deep and mysterious beings and he loves everyone and other gobbly gook (the thing is, I honestly think he believes all that junk, which I admit does give him a sort of charm in my eyes, even I'm rolling those same eyes )

LMAO!

LOL! I remember that.

Everytime he was asked about his sexuality he would say, it's none of your buisness.

Like come on, if you're straight you're going to say that you are straight.

P.S. I hope Ricky is one of those wild and freaky types that likes to do groupies, I would def. show up to a concert.
