Ricky Martin Comes Out of the Closet Fortunate Homosexual
Martin, is a Puerto Rican pop singer who rose to fame, first as a member of the Latin boy band Menudo, then as a solo artist since 1991. His career has spanned over three decades and has sold more than 60 million albums worldwide. He is the founder of Ricky MartÃn Foundation in Spanish Fundacion Ricky Martin a non-profit charity organization.
Ricky Martin has long dealt with rumors about his sexual preferences. Usually when there is long standing speculation about a celebrity's sexual preferences that is not irrefutably denied, the innuendo ultimately proves to be true. No, that doesn't mean Tom Cruise is gay necessarily; it's not a perfect system. But by and large when speculation like this runs rampant for years, there is generally truth behind it.
“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,” he writes, addressing inevitable questions about why he didn’t reveal his sexuality earlier.
Well, this is show business. It’s a lot of fantasy. You can fantasize whatever you want to be. You can fantasize however you want to Go for it. Be free about it. I’m not too concerned with what people say about me. You can think whatever you want. I know what I am, my beliefs, what I like and don’t like. As I just said, I have the need someday to have a family. And that’s something I’m going to go for. The people I care about know me. I’m happy.
Ricky Martin that he feels liberated and brave enough to come out of the closet, as he did today by tweeting about the fact that yes he is in fact, a homosexual. And good for America that besides it being a noteworthy story for a little while, in the end it won't really matter to anybody. We have an African American president and now a gay former heartthrob pop star and increasingly those facts seem about as noteworthy as whether they are left-handed or not. And that's a great thing.

Ricky Martin Comes Out as "Fortunate" Gay Man
Martin says the birth of his twin sons led to his decision to come out -- and according to the singer, "To keep living as I did up until today would be to indirectly diminish the glow that my kids where [sic] born with."
Ricky Martin, who has dodged questions of his sexuality for years now, officially revealed that he is a gay man in a statement on his website earlier today.
The Puerto Rican singer,, who is planning to write a memoir about his life, says the birth of his twin sons (via surrogate) led to his decision to come out.
Ricky's kids were born in August 2008, and similar to Clay Aiken, he says he did not want to live a lie while raising a child ... in Ricky's case two of them.
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.
