Ricky Martin traumatized by interview: ‘Felt used’ | gossip

entertainment">In the conversation, the presenter cited rumors that the singer would be gay. “You can end the rumours, you can tell if you’re gay or not.” An obviously uneasy Martin replied that he wouldn’t say anything about that.

entertainment">“When she asked that question, I felt used, because I was not ready to come out yet,” says the singer, who ten years later announced that he is gay, now about it. “I was very scared. I did have a bit of post-traumatic stress disorder as a result.”

entertainment">Still, Martin later regrets that he didn’t have his coming out sooner. “People sometimes ask me what I would have done differently with what I know now. Maybe I would have come out in that interview. That would have been nice, because when I finally did, it felt really great.”
