Celebrity Magazines reluctant to feature Ricky Martin’s twin baby pictures

Apparently there will be no big ‘money shot’ for Ricky Martin and his new twins. Conservative minded celebrity magazines, are reluctant to deal with the less conventional circumstances of these babies arrivals. The word in magazine land is that someone will run a photo of Martin (who announced last week that he is now caring for twin sons delivered through an unnamed surrogate) and his babies somewhere on an inside page, but that the family isn’t cover-worthy. One editor tells the NY Daily News:
“We don’t think he (Martin) is going to tell the backstory, so the whole thing just seems kind of icky. When someone seems like they are hiding something, it’s a big turnoff to the public, who want to share in celebrities’ lives,” another editor revealed: “No one really cared about Clay Aiken becoming a single dad, either.”
You can read between the lines as far as the Clay Aiken’ remark for yourself. Ricky’s rep said they’ve received inquiries from various media outlets, but wouldn’t comment on whether Ricky is negotiating. Meanwhile The National Enquirer, who isn’t interested in cover baby photo’s so much, has reporters allegedly hot on the trail of the mystery surrogate mama.






Conservative, my ass. They just aren’t getting whatever they perceive as the juicy story from these men. It can’t be like a single woman who chooses to have a child…nope…got to be something “icky”, something untoward, weird. Maybe the guys wanted kids (well, duh, obviously)…what’s to say they won’t be outstanding parents. I give them the benefit of the doubt and I don’t need to know who they’re sleeping with to see the bebbe’s pics.
Funny, ex heroin addicts that get pregnant within months of dating, rappers with multiple kids from multiple mothers, abandoned kids via a nanny…all acceptable and “conservative”, eh? Yep, same ole same ole….if gay even remotely is rearing it’s head it’s something to be mocked.
Thank gawd for progress. NOT.
