So much for the press being tolerant and accepting of celebs peeing on others. Ricky Martin really thought that he would find understanding in the media when he confessed to Blender magazine that he enjoys engaging in “one night stands, porn, golden showers”, as reported by Mala earlier this month. To Ricky’s surprise the press did what they were supposed to do: EAT. IT. UP. Now he’s pee-pee-pissed:

Ricky Martin has struck back at critics who have attacked his ability to run his humanitarian foundation because of controversial statements the pop star made about his sex life in Blender magazine. In a letter in Spanish posted on Univision.com, Ricky said, “At the time I granted the interview never did it cross my mind that my comments would spark this absurd and sensationalist public discussion. I cannot avoid speculation about my career and life, but I cannot allow those for whom my foundation works to be affected because I am a public figure.”

Come on. The whole motivation behind these kinds of declarations is to get your name back in the magazines. This is why publicists exist, people. He was told to say this to appear more edgy and controversial, and to, hopefully and as a result, increase record and concert ticket sales. He ain’t shocked. Don’t believe the hype.
