据国外媒体报道,一直被媒体怀疑是同性恋的拉丁歌手瑞奇-马汀(Ricky Martin)近日终于出柜,通过自己的官方网站公布了真相。他的这一行为得到同性恋反歧视协会(GLAAD)的大力支持。
瑞奇-马汀以1998年的世界杯歌曲生命之杯红遍全球,在他的艺人生涯中,这位歌手一直面临着巨大的压力,不时的有媒体质问他的性向,近日38岁的他终于坦言自己是同性恋。他在官方网站中说:“我很骄傲的宣布,我是一个幸运的同性恋。能够成为今天这样,我是被祝福的。”
瑞奇-马汀通过代孕得到的双胞胎儿子们将在今年八月满两岁,这也让他下定出柜的决心。他说:“继续回避会间接减少儿子们出世带给我的激情。这些年的沉默和思考让我更加坚强,并且让我明白必须要从内心接受这个现实,明白这一点给了我力量去战胜了一些我前所未有的情绪和想法”
瑞奇-马汀说成为父亲之后他的生活变得更好了。在他的儿子们出生之后,他说:“我太高兴了。他们做的每一件事,不管是哭还是笑,我都感觉是对我的祝福。当父亲的感觉太好了。在精神上,这是我一生中最重要的时刻。”
在瑞奇-马汀出柜之后,GLAAD发表了一份声明支持这位歌手。该协会主席贾莱特-巴里奥斯(Jarrett Barrios)表示:“当瑞奇-马汀这样的人承认了自己的性向之后,数亿人会和他建立起一种联系,因为他不仅是一个艺人,还是一个对自己的性向感到满意的父亲。他作出了坦诚的决定,这一决定会在美国、拉美甚至全世界让大众接受同性恋的存在。”

瑞奇-马汀 官方网站相关博客全文
A few months ago I decided to write my memoirs, a project I knew was going to bring me closer to an amazing turning point in my life. From the moment I wrote the first phrase I was sure the book was the tool that was going to help me free myself from things I was carrying within me for a long time. Things that were too heavy for me to keep inside. Writing this account of my life, I got very close to my truth. And thisis something worth celebrating.
For many years, there has been only one place where I am in touch with my emotions fearlessly and that's the stage. Being on stage fills my soul in many ways, almost completely. It's my vice. The music, the lights and the roar of the audience are elements that make me feel capable of anything. This rush of adrenaline is incredibly addictive. I don't ever want to stop feeling these emotions. But it is serenity that brings me to where I'm at right now. An amazing emotional place of comprehension, reflection and enlightenment. At this moment I'm feeling the same freedom I usually feel only on stage, without a doubt, I need to share.
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.
If someone asked me today, "Ricky, what are you afraid of?" I would answer "the blood that runs through the streets of countries at war...child slavery, terrorism...the cynicism of some people in positions of power, the misinterpretation of faith." But fear of my truth? Not at all! On the contrary, It fills me with strength and courage. This is just what I need especially now that I am the father of two beautiful boys that are so full of light and who with their outlook teach me new things every day. To keep living as I did up until today would be to indirectly diminish the glow that my kids where born with. Enough is enough. This has to change. This was not supposed to happen 5 or 10 years ago, it is supposed to happen now. Today is my day, this is my time, and this is my moment.
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.
What will happen from now on? It doesn't matter. I can only focus on what's happening to me in this moment. The word "happiness" takes on a new meaning for me as of today. It has been a very intense process. Every word that I write in this letter is born out of love, acceptance, detachment and real contentment. Writing this is a solid step towards my inner peace and vital part of my evolution.
I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am.
