Okay, so I admit it, I am slow. But in the land of celebrities that move in New York seconds, it is difficult for anyone to catch up. In any case, it's enough of the excuses and let's move on to the real stuff.
The topic of the day: Lance Bass (of N*SYNC and failed attempt at being an astronaut fame).
Lance came out publicly to end months of speculation by fans and paparazzi hounds alike about his sexuality. In an exclusive by People magazine, he came out and told reporters that he is in a stable relationship with Reichen Lehmkuhl (of Amazing Race 4 fame; remember that beefcake who was also an ex-USAF pilot?).
Everybody together, “Aww… ain't that sweet…”
I've always been a fan of N*SYNC and many other pop-harmony boy bands (not so much of BSB though). I admire them for and enjoy their musical talents. In all actuality, their personal should remain as that - personal and private, if not for their celebrity status.However, if our perception of them as public figures for their public talent should be affected by their personal choice to reveal and share their intimacies with us, perhaps the one who needs examination is not the celebrity, but the one who becomes indignant or even offended by their honesty.
Consider this, if one were drawn to a particular public talent and should be appalled and offended by the talent's personal lifestyle, what was the main reason for the initial attraction to begin with?
Think about it…
As for Lance and Reichen, and all the other gay/lesbian couples all over the world, I wish them all the happiness they deserve and should be given. It has always been my belief that love in any form is still LOVE.
