Ricky Martin Taught Angelo Garcia How to Tread Water

OH SNAP — Menudo’s Angelo Garcia, who says he came out long before Ricky Martin (and not because Martin came out), found this photo of his now mega-famous boy bandmate and notes, “Strange fact but true …. Did you know Ricky Martin taught me how to swim? when I was Just 11 years old I was terrified of the deep end of the pool and Ricky let me ride on his back and eventually I lost my fear and he was able to teach me how to swim LOL.”

      Can I say that this story and picture are adorable, without seeming like a perv?

      Angelo was 11, Ricky was 16.

      There is nothing perv about this picture or story.

      “Angelo Garcia, once the youngest-ever member of Menudo and a bandmate of Ricky Martin’s, …, wasn’t surprised when Ricky Martin came out, though he never saw Martin with a man or woman and assumed he was asexual (and no, they never fucked — he was 10 when Martin was 18, y’all). Martin had his own private room apart from the others.

      Garcia theorizes their manager might have thought Martin was gay and kept him from his impressionable bandmates, or Martin may have had a private room as a perk since he was the eldest Menudo.”

      Angelo is an escort now, so he is peddling his story everywhere.

      This picture looks like two friends playing on the side of the pool. Angelo has grown into a nice looking young man who I hope harbors no ill feelings that the spotlights are off for now.

      You can always make them come back on without having to resort to desperate/violent sexual encounters that will only turn them off forever. I wish you luck Angelo.

      And how is your hot little friend who was in those pics featuring you and he a while back? Squeeze his butt hard for me when you see him.
