Aww... good for him. He has got the cutest dimples

BTW the link shows sorry we could not find the page... Dunno if they withdrew the article or somethin...

 

[mauritz]

yesss!

In other news Ricky Martin is gay and the Pope is Catholic.

It really does piss me off when these people just use it as a marketing ploy.

His career did nothing, so hey, let me wave a rainbow flag just before I release a new album.

If they don't have the balls to come out with it from the outset (like y'know, when they're going on the talent show in the first place) then they may as well languish in the closet forever more.

i already knew from watching x factor, i have the eye, not the radar, just the eye........yep, no lie.

Everytime he passed to the next round, he slips his mask, if you've seen that show, you'd know what i mean........well only if you have 'the eye'

Sorry did you read the article, we may all presume that he was gay, but he states that he has only recently come to the conclusion. On that we have to take his word, as for a publicity stunt, he hasn't released any album let alone a new one, that he is still recording.

It will be nice when the day comes that being gay is no longer a news story.
I believe it's possible, I never thought gay marriage would happen in my lifetime.

 

[Squallmuzza]

I'm sorry. But him saying he 'only just realised' is utter utter bullshit. Seriously, his next ploy (if this doesn't get him some pink album sales) will be to change his name to Joe 'Tencocks' McElderry.

'Ummm can I play at G-A-Y now guys?' 'No Joe, you're barred remember? You got caught too many times at the gloryholes in the lavs'

..this guy really sucks!!!

 

[grrrpuppy]

He's pretty obviously gay... what's the need to 'come out'???

 

[tubbs]

He's a cutie.

 

[TragicWaltz]

I think it's great that he's able to come out... but this isn't really news lol... I knew he's gay from the moment I saw his audition in X-Factor =P

 

[TheWatcher]

Can't say I know him, but I'm glad he did it, for whatever reason, cause you know it would have been only a matter of time (perhaps a slow news day?) till someone questioned his sexuality and hounded him till he "came out" (Perez Hilton anyone?)

In any event, I'm glad he did it when he felt comfortable enough to do it, and on his own terms.

 

[theoneandonly]

Yes! I love him!

What a deeply unpleasant way to talk about another person. Even in a society where cheap marketing is ubiquitous, it's your responsibility not to allow your outlook to become so cynical that everything you see is a ploy, and everyone in the public eye is assumed to be a cheat. The world is a much better place when we meet people with acceptance and understanding (there is still a difference between these and gullibility, weakness and naivety).

 

[imadorky]

yeah he is

 

[Squallmuzza]

@occasionally

If he had 'come out' as in... y'know... realised he was gay. Then I'd be the first to give him a round of applause and warm 'hand' to congratulate him.

However, he was very clearly gay before-hand, and was hiding it as part of his career progression and 'pulled it out of the bag' to boost sales. That is utter bullshit and a pretty low tactic to take.

You can believe what you will, but in THIS CASE, I believe that he is full of shit. How long will it be before we get a nice rainbow flag produced for 'true fans' with his face plastered all over it. Ugh, makes me sick.

 

[suchat13]

Yes...s I like him.

 

[blueway]

what a great song and voice on this kid.

 

[Sandrik]

That´s again the proof !
Gays the better singers !

LOL
