Ok, let's all agree that we have known that Ricky Martin was gay the second he first performed "La Vida Loca"...mmmmkkkkk? I'm not surprised at his coming out, but I am surprised at the fact that he was offered $20 million for his life/coming out story. I mean really? I'm sure it would be an interesting story but in my opinion it is not worth $20 million. Ricky Martin may be an interesting person but i would bet that if he wasn't a celebrity his coming out story would probably only be worth $1000.
Why do celebrities think that because they are/were famous that we all need to know details of their life? Now I'm not try to put Ricky down, I liked some of his music when it came out. He's not a bad person and I'm glad he found the courage to come out. By doing so he will hopefully serve as a role model to those who are still in the closet.
I know when I came out, it was nice to have people around me that were accepting and open minded. I just think that his story should be told just not at that kind of price. If he thinks by coming out that he will get more fans, I think he may be mistaken. If he wants to use this as a springboard to get more fans, he should do it the old fashioned way and be real. Help someone else going through the same thing, and people will like him because of who he is not what song he sings.
