Though he’s been running around performing his new track “The Best Thing About Me Is You,” Ricky Martin has yet to release a video. Yesterday, it debuted, and it features word clouds and a bunch of homosexuals embracing.

Ok I am a big fan of Ricky Martin his music has always beed sexy and his videos steamy and full of passion???? So now that he is gay the videos feel more like a public add…..???? What Gives….Come on Ricky shake your BON BON…..If this record doesnt sale it wont be because you are gay.

Shaking his bon-bon would have not been a good fit for this song or video, which is excellent by the way. It is diverse and has a nice message tucked within it! I love it! I’ll be buying his album when it drops for sure!

the best thing about this video is the fade out at the end.

The beginning contrasts oddly with the rest of the video, and I cringe when I hear the “don’t wait till manana” part. But for the rest, I like the theme of the video, and even the music beat isn’t that bad.
Of course, I’d rather see Ricky Martin create some hot music with hip thrusts abound.

Such bitterness… This video is perfect and Ricky is great for doing it. Simple, yet very sophisticated.. Papi is more than his bon bon and so is his message!!!
I will have to say, that when I saw the performance on Oprah I was not totally taken by it at the time, but the video serves the message perfectly!!!
Love ya Ricky!!!! Me gusto mucho Papi!!!

Note how the only kiss in the video is a heterosexual one. It proves that Ricky is still the same straight-pandering moron that he’s always been. A sleazy Hispanic turd who portrayed himself as a heterosexual during the early part of his career and who hasn’t really changed much even with his coming out.
Go back into the closet, Ricky. You’re a product of the homophobic music industry, an industry which refuses to support openly gay or bisexual men unless they promote themselves as strictly straight.

@jason: Quit your bitchin’ you unhinged queen. Same shit… every time! Your life must be one big negative pool of crap.

Ricky Martin is a Latino turd who does as his record company demands. This includes acting as a heterosexual even if he isn’t one.
Ricky either hates himself or he is a record company-pleasing doormat who sacrifices his sexuality in order to make money. I’d go for the latter.
Ricky is icky. Nuff said.

For the life of me I cannot understand why this guy made it big. The song and the video was like a Coke commercial in the 70’s.
jacknastion
who exactly is this music for? It honestly sounds like a cross between adult contemporary and music for kindergarten kids. Like if Raffi started writing lyrics about relationships….just bland and weird.
DR
It’s not bad, but the video seemed like it should have been for a different song.
I’ll give the album a try, it’s nice to see that his music is growing up as he grows up. He can’t so synth-pop “La Vida Loca” forever.

He is more raw than ever with who he is and his music this time around will reflect that. This CD needs to eb tame, and about him and his soul. I APPLAUD Ricky.He has done so much for gay touth since coming out, fundraising, appearances, donations, and his many interviews where he looked directly in the camera lens and spoke to gay kids, ecnouraging them, when very few do.
I’ll always be a fan of this classy man.
WTF
WTF was that Ricky! Looks like more like an anti-prop 8 add than a music video. He should have made a steamy hot video with another guy! At least that would be more bearable….

Ricky, Ricky, Ricky. I was willing to forgive your “Shake Your Bon Bon” lapse but this is really too much. I felt like I was watching an ad for a Disney Cruise, waiting for Mickey to appear and start rapping the names of the Seven Dwarfs. And what was with all the head touching–OCD much? Go back to your latin roots and give us a little soul.
Ryan
I loved this.
And I invite all the haters to channel your attention-whorish bitching constructively and go protest in front of a homophobic church or something.
