Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
hen you think of Ricky Martin, you probably think, "hubba, hubba!" The former boy-band hunk of singing love is no longer just a pretty face and vibrating glutes, he's also a deep and thoughtful author of a new autobiography. The singer is coming out of the dark, as Gloria Estefan might say, not only about his sexuality, but also about his spirituality, and the journey he's been on to overcome his fears.
Martin won't be chatting about his vida loca, but rather autographing his memoir, a book that Deepak Chopra called, a "story of a tortured soul who healed himself by returning to the state of innocence and authenticity." The spiritual leader went so far as to say, "it is only this kind of courage and this kind love that can heal the world. Bravo!" Heavy.
Keep Miami New Times Free... Since we started Miami New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Miami with no paywalls.
