Here's another one you saw coming. (Or would have seen coming if you gave the slightest shit.)That's right-- continuing the long tradition of officially coming out of the closet long after anyone cares or even really remembers who you are, late 90's Latin heartthrob Ricky Martin has announced his gaiety on his website, writing: " I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am. RM"Babaluuuuuuuuuuuu!Oh. Wait. Wrong Ricky. Oh well! Congratulations anyway, Mr. Martin!
What no People article, no gabies?

That's like the "shock" when Rosie or Clay Aiken did. We were ok with the idea of it...you could have done it sooner.
Everyone is a prisoner of her/his own internal clock and priorities as to when to come out. Martin had to deal with the old prying shrew Baba Wawa a decade ago and even she has not admitted it was her biggest mistake in her 5,000 years of asking prying questions and getting celebrities to tell them what sort of shrubbery they'd like to be. We come out when we feel we can. The good part of Martin's announcement- whether earlier or now- is that millions of his fans have to rethink their assumptions.
