Ricky Martin Reveals He's Gay

After years of sidestepping questions about his sexual orientation, singer Ricky Martin reveals in a heartfelt posting online that he is gay. "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man," Martin, 38, said Monday on RickyMartinMusic.com. "I am very blessed to be who I am." He said his twin sons, who turn 2 in August, inspired him to be true to himself. "To keep living as I did up until today would be to indirectly diminish the glow that my kids were born with," Martin writes.
