Ricky Martin's announcement on his Official Web site (and by way of tweet) that he is "gay" - triggered a lot of frenzied commentary on Twitter this afternoon - that ranged from congratulatory to downright hilarious.
One tweeter quipped:
"OMG! Ricky Martin has a blog?"
Another tweeter chuckled:
"We knew, dude. Thanks."
On the humorous side, a handful of tweets were so precious, I just had to pass 'em along!
"I thought he was a ladies man. Now he's a man's man," another posted with an obvious smirk on their face.
One of my favorites?
"Ricky Martin admits he's fabulous! You go, girl."
It was a bummer (wrong choice of words?) for others with a crush on the Pop star.
"When my friend on facebook heard the news she was heartbroken."
What rock has she been hiding under for the last decade?
Some were in the dark, I guess.
"Whether it was obvious or not, it still took courage to come out," asserted another.
But, those folks appeared to be in the minority, judging by the comments posted.
"How many people actually thought he was straight?"
"We we supposed to think he was straight?"
Others congratulated Ricky for busting out of the closet.
"Welcome to the club!"
"Ricky Martin came out of the closet. #abouttime."
Some were playful!
"Shock news! Ricky Martin not pretending to be gay – he really is gay!"
"Ricky Martin has come out of the closet? Shocker... Who saw that coming?"
A handful sighed and wondered what the fuss was all about.
"Ricky Martin is trending. Is he still considered a celeb?"
In restrospect, it appears that a large percentage of music-lovers (Joe public, too) knew that Ricky was gay and that he was trying to hide the fact.
Ricky appeared to be one of the lone few who didn't have a clue about the fact that most folks have been keenly aware of his sexual preference for years.
Talk about a pink elephant in the room!
The end scenario?
Ricky rides off into the sunset with Prince Charming.
Or, hooks-up with a tattoo artist from Silver Lake!
