ricky-martin-7.jpgRicky Martin is getting on my good side. First, he’s giving Dubya the finger and now he’s planning on making a documentary to bring attention to problem of human trafficking, a cause very dear to him. He announced his plans in Costa Rica last week:

“Until now, the priority of my foundation has been to educate the world about what is happening, putting numbers on the table, and letting the media know that we need help so that the world will realize that this is organizaed crime,” the singer explained.

“Now, my priority, aside from music, is to create a strong, effective documentary. I think that it’s very important that we take this problem to the big screen, to be crude about it, without beating around the bush.”

It doesn’t sound like Ricky will be directing the doc, though he will be helping create the script by looking for the right stories to tell.

Ricky was in Costa Rica for a concert and to launch his new campaign against human trafficking, called Llama y vive, which looks to help victims of this crime via a telephone crisis line.
