[@gregbrogan9061]

Ricky seems like a really good soul. Very happy to see him in a good place surrounded by love.

[@haynelnegueruela4769]

Ricky is so real, so sincere, I admire him for all he’s achieved as an artist and also as the beautiful soul he is.

[@colainebradly786]

maybe you need to admire me as well.. Lol.. just kidding Haynel. how are you doing today

[@colainebradly786]

@Cristy Lampton yep!

[@jennichibas9625]

I think Ricky loved women, and respected them. To a certain degree he was attracted to them and enjoyed certain things but with men it’s to the max. He envisions more things with men, men bring something out that a women would have never brought out. He speaks of women like a vacation or a dream but a man is life to him.

[@curlyvseedstar2108]

Wise words

[@SuperJelena78]

BISEXUAL

[@just_janen_1196]

Personally I stopped judging ppl a long time ago am more focus on my own life and growth. I leave judgement to God bc I believe he knows best.

[@ctellez99]

How come, u2 now Selena Quintanillas story stands as the cornerstone foundation of the present day Human Rights/Anti-Human trafficking, forced career, and Social Justice movements in a technologically advanced society. The modern day entertainment industry in particular the music industry as well as various communication and communications media have also been largely founded by those present involved in the production of these events which stand as a most severe matter. We see here in every instance the forced nature of the career of every female artist as well as others on hand in the most physically intrusive manners; who appear in this tejano so called racially commercialized and community destroying endeavour. Which has effectively silenced the voices of entire communities and the human rights movement as a whole. This behavior has continued till present day, simultaneously we see those personally accountable for what truly is a human catastrophe for all society as a whole and brazenly promotes complicity to an already at risk population. The abusive tactics used to intimidate persons vulnerable like Selena Quintanilla highlights the need for immediate societal education. Education on forced relationships, which clearly begets the norm here, and crime free atmospheres which are needed in an advanced tech society faced with long term accountability. Even one such instance resembling what we see here such as that of Ariana Grande has been globally lambasted for offensive volatility, why is this still being allowed in global silence here. Do good to be, question id imposition

[@varunajith100]

What a genuine loving compassionate sensitive caring talented helpful soulful man you are Ricky Martin. And you confess yourself that you are not perfect. But you are very wise and practical in your approach to life. It really deeply touched me when you said don't force someone to open out about their sexuality but let it come out from within him taking the example of if you break the egg what comes out has no life but if the egg itself opens up it opens out with life. WOW. That was amazing. Love you so much Ricky Martin. 😘❤️🥰😍

[@melindamullins9971]

god bless him for saving our children.

[@melindamullins9971]

god bless him do u know how much this will help those who are lost all because of ther sexuality peace and love for all people gay or straight.all loved.

This is fantastic

[@anthonyboarman3833]

He should have come out to Barbara. He needed to be stronger. It's not like everyone already knew.

[@jpp7783]

It’s very easy for us to say what he “should” have done. But he was where he was, he felt as he did, and he revealed as much or as little as he wanted. He owes us nothing more.

[@joserios7532]

Why Is the Mom, only responsibility???? AND the father??? A person that speaks about inclusion

[@carpediem4179]

Be yourself, and its not important what people think, the most important is what you feel, the rest is litteraly bullshit

[@marialuke3747]

good job Ricky to be Humanitarian for children affected by Human trafficking,health,education,

[@judithmiskowski9332]

Why is this forced down our throats? It doesn't matter to me what a person's sexual orientation is! It's like having a month to celebrate Heterosexual month! No one cares anymore!

[@arminrm6805]

Thank You King, we love you ❤🏳️‍🌈

[@bettyvargas396]

You are beautiful in and out and may God keep on blessing you your husband and Your beautiful amazing kids may the blood of Jesus protect you guys all six of you and I mean this as a mother oh my blessing for you and your family👏🥰

[@jacquiheinrich6822]

What a beautiful man. Shit hot sexy. But seriously I hope what he is doing, and his book helps people understand. How can love possibly be evil????? Very empathetic. I would never stop loving my child because he as gay. He’s not,but how can a parent stop loving their own child??? I can’t fathom that. Love is love and everyone deserves to be loved and everyone wants to be loved. You are a very beautiful gay man & I wish you & your beautiful family all the love & happiness.🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈✨💥💥💥💥💥💥💕💕💕💕💕🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

Ricky Martin por favor , se que amas al pueblo Cubano y ese pueblo te ama a ti , pero nuestro pais esta pasando por momentos muy malos el gobierno que esta hace 62 años en el poder esta masacrando a nuestro pueblo en las calles , solo por salir a pedir libertad , el propio gobernante dio la orden de disparar a nuestra juventud ; Solo le pido si puede que se solidarice publicamente con el pueblo que esta siendo asesinado en las calles

A thief is not born a thief. He/She decides to become a thief. If you lock up two females or two males in a room for 100yrs, when you open the door, there will be zero human being. Why? Because God created man & woman to procreate. In the name of Jesus, don’t let the enemy steal your life. 🙏💪BE KIND TO THOSE THAT ARE CONFUSE…
