Ricky Martin Is Livin' La Vida Open, Says He's Gay
ABC ^ | 3/29/10 | staff (no pun intended)

Posted on 03/29/2010 2:34:17 PM PDT by pissant

Ricky Martin is no longer denying the rumors: He's confirming that he is gay.

In a statement on his Web site, Martin says: "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am."

The "Livin' La Vida Loca" singer's sexuality has been speculated about for years, but he's never directly addressed it and was usually seen with beautiful women.

But the singer says that writing his memoirs helped him realize that he had to be free with himself, and not keep any more secrets. His book hasn't been published yet.

Huh? If you were so proud to be homosexual, why did you hide it?

Does this mean that Ricky won’t picking me up on a white horse and riding off to our wedding? I’ll be darned.

This shocked my almost as much as the sun coming up this morning.

So,because I like women does that make me “unfortunate”? Or does he call himself “fortunate” ‘cause he hasn't gotten that little virus.....yet?

I think that means he knew a certain woman I used to know. She could probably make a man glad to be homosexual.
