Ricky Martin comes outof the closet

Ricky Martin has said that he wants the world to know that he is gay.

The Latin popstar announced on his official blog today that he is "a fortunate homosexual man".

"I am very blessed to be who I am," he posted.

Martin's sexuality has been the topic of much speculation since his hit song 'Livin' la Vida Loca' hit the airwaves in 1999.

The 38-year-old's declaration was apparently sparked by his decision to write his memoirs.

"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," Martin wrote.

He continued: "Today I take full responsibility for my decisions and my actions."

Martin became the father of two boys, Valentino and Matteo, in 2008. The children were born to a surrogate mother.


In other news, the sky admitted it was blue.

I also heard today that Chickens lay eggs. I think I need to sit down.

She bangs?

He bangs, evidently.

Didn't he say this a while ago? I thought everyone knew :/

Always thought it. The lack of women in his wikipedia page always made me wonder lol.

I love that article, just for the fact that it keeps calling him Martin.
