Ricky Martin says he had a ‘lot of anger’ while hiding his gay truth

Ricky Martin has admitted that he had a “lot of anger” before admitting he is gay and that those around him used to be at the receiving end of his torment.

“Before I came out, I had a lot of anger. For years people would ask, ``How are you doing?`` and I’d say, ``Good, fine.`` It’s show business, and that’s what you have to show,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying.


“I was also angry toward my parents. You hurt the ones you love because you know they’ll be there tomorrow. But I wasn’t going to be truly happy until I understood that I had to be real and honest,” he added.

Ricky wrote about the experience in a song for his latest album ‘Musica + Alma + Sexo,’ summing up his feelings and his need to be honest about himself.
