Third time was the charm. Twice turned down by “Menudo” for being too short, Ricky Martin (née Enrique Martin Morales) joined the boy band at age 12 and emerged as a teen heartthrob. Five years later he was on his own, singing 5 languages, propelling Latin pop to mainstream music. There was Mexican theater, a TV show, then an American soap opera and sitcom along the way.

The child who began as a choir altar boy and sang fast food TV ads in Puerto Rico would transcend his “Livin’ La Vida Loca” lyrics and reveal his true self as a gay man. A six-year marriage, 4 children by surrogacy, and divorce would follow. Some may call it “A Loco Life.”
