X-Factor Winner Announces he's Gay


So yet another pop star reveals he’s gay, 19yr old Joe McElderry took the gutsy move to reveal his sexual orientation just weeks after hackers got into his Twitter account and outed him. Despite claiming it to be a lie at the time he’s come clean – good for him, I say but will his honest approach do him more harm than good?

I hope his mass female fan base don’t become disillusioned and move onto pastures new, after all it’s about his voice and his music and not who he prefers in the bedroom.

I find it increasingly sad that gay men and women these days still feel they need to keep quiet for fear of damage to there careers and how they will be perceived by the public. Surely in today’s world been gay should be as acceptable as been straight or even bisexual but as always it’s the small narrow minded people who cannot accept people for who they are that cause the most damage.

Personally I don’t believe it’s any of our business what celebrities do in there personal lives but with mass media attention these days unfortunately it is a way of life for anyone in the publice eye,.

I applaud Joe for choosing to come out now, it’s a daring move to make before he releases his debut album and establishes his career and I sincerely hope he goes on to be highly successful career proves honesty really can be the best policy.
