Ricky Martin came out as gay on March 29, 2010 writing on his website: "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am."
He attended Sagrado Corazón School and was an average student. He participated in school extra-curricular activities and sang in the school choir, where he began to realize that his talent captivated the audiences. Through the encouragement of his father, he began to take voice lessons, and auditioned for television advertising spots.
Martin first achieved worldwide success with his selection to replace Ricky Melendez in the Latin boy band Menudo from 1984 until 1989. His meteoric ascent to fame started in Menudo's homebase, Caguas, site of his first concert. He signed with Sony in 1990.
After he left Menudo, he decided to continue his career. He moved to Mexico City where he started acting, first in theater in productions like Mamá ama el rock, and Los tenis Rojos with Angélica María and Angélica Vale. He starred in telenovelas such as Alcanzar una Estrella and performed in the music group Muñecos De Papel of that production. In 1994, he moved to Los Angeles, California. He received a role as bartender (Miguel Morez) in the American soap opera General Hospital.
Ricky established himself in Miami and connected with music creator Desmond Child, former Menudo band-mate Robi Draco Rosa and Puerto Rican agent Angelo Medina. With these 2 in tow, Ricky created hits like "María", "The Cup of Life", and "Livin' La Vida Loca". He sang "The Cup Of Life" during a World Cup broadcast that gave him worldwide exposure, but it was "Livin' La Vida Loca" which became a massive crossover hit, made him popular around the world and propelled him into the covers of Tiger Beat and many other major magazines worldwide.
One of Ricky's career high points was the recording of the Spanglish ballad "Cuidado" ("Be Careful") with Madonna and William Orbit. The original version was written with Patrick Leonard and the first demo remains just one of many unreleased Madonna songs.
Ricky was chosen, along with Félix Trinidad in 1999, to lead Puerto Rico's worldwide tourism campaign, both exemplifying Puerto Rico's youthfulness, enthusiasm and "never give up" character. In 2003, Martin announced that he and his agent, Angelo Medina, had parted ways. In February of 2004, Martin received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Premios Lo Nuestro in Miami.
Martin recently adopted three little girls from India. The Ricky Martin Foundation created a project called People For Children, which aims to eliminate the industry of sexual exploitation and trafficking of children worldwide. His first benefit was held in Mexico City on November 10, 2005.
On October 11, 2005 Martin came out with his first English language album since 2000's Sound Loaded and the tenth album of his career. Most of the songs on the album, called Life, were co-written by Martin. Martin feels that the album is one of his more personal albums, saying "I was really in touch with my emotions. I think this album is very multi-layered, just like life is. It's about feeling anger. It's about feeling joy. It's about feeling uncertainty. It's about cuping a feeling. It's about feeling. And all my emotions are part of this production." The album debuted at #6 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. The first single of the album, "I Don't Care" (Spanish version: “Qué Más Da”), featuring Fat Joe and Amerie, was Ricky’s first single since 2003's “Tal Vez.” He plans to release his next single called Drop It On Me.
Ricky Martin performed at the 2006 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony in Turin.

IT'S ALRIGHT
Ricky Martin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got nothing left to prove
Something, something I can't explain
Every time I look at you, I realize what I got to do
It's soothing and take you under the rain
And I feel so nice
Crossing all the lines, taking an chance
And I feel so right
Come and do it now, we got to scream, scream all night
[Chorus]
It's alright, don't be afraid don't hesitate now
Feels right, let's take it now don't wait for later
Tonight, and if it feels right just let it go
And if it's alright you got to let it flow
It's alright, don't be afraid don't hesitate now
Feels right, let's take it now don't wait for later
Tonight, and if it feels right just let it go
And if it's alright you got to let it flow
If I'm wrong don't want to know
If I'm right just let it show
It's crazy, so crazy it just might be
I only care about today, tomorrow is too far away
Let's take it, and run run away with me
It feels so nice,
Crossing all the lines, taking any chance
Doing what we need to feel alive
Yeah it feels so right,
Come and do it now, we got to scream, scream all night
[Chorus]
I think I love you,
And I need you by my side baby to the morning light
I know I want you,
What I got for you is love
I got love, love, love, love
[Chorus]
Don't be afraid don't hesitate now
Let's take it now don't wait for later
And if it feel right just let it go
And if it's alright you got to let it flow
And if it's alright you got to let it flow
The lyrics to Ricky Martin's song "It's Alright" express a sense of liberation and carefree spirit. The opening lines, "Dissipate your every mood / I got nothing left to prove", suggest that the singer is comfortable with himself and wants his partner to feel the same way. He then goes on to describe a feeling of attraction that he can't explain: "Something, something I can't explain / Every time I look at you, I realize what I got to do / It's soothing and take you under the rain." The imagery of taking someone under the rain suggests a desire to be swept away in the moment with this person, without any inhibitions.
The chorus repeats the phrase "It's alright", which serves as a reassuring message to encourage the listener to embrace their feelings and desires. The lines "Feels right, let's take it now don't wait for later / Tonight, and if it feels right just let it go" reinforce the idea of seizing the moment and not worrying about what may happen in the future. The song also includes a declaration of love and a desire to be with someone through the night and into the morning.
Overall, "It's Alright" is a song about living in the moment and enjoying the freedom that comes with following your desires.
Line by Line Meaning
Dissipate your every mood
Let go of your every emotion and be in the moment
I got nothing left to prove
There's no need to prove anything anymore, just enjoy the moment
Something, something I can't explain
There's a feeling that cannot be put into words
Every time I look at you, I realize what I got to do
Whenever I see you, I know what I have to do to make this moment count
It's soothing and take you under the rain
Being together is comforting, even in the midst of chaos
And I feel so nice
This moment is pure bliss
Crossing all the lines, taking a chance
Breaking boundaries and taking risks to fully live this moment
Doing what we need to feel alive
Taking action to feel alive and truly experience this moment
And I feel so right
This is exactly where I'm supposed to be, with you, right now
Come and do it now, we got to scream, scream all night
Let's not waste any time, let's fully experience this moment by screaming out our joy all night
It's alright, don't be afraid don't hesitate now
We don't need to be afraid or hesitate, we should embrace this moment fully
Feels right, let's take it now don't wait for later
This moment feels right, let's not wait for another opportunity, let's seize it now
Tonight, and if it feels right just let it go
Tonight, if it feels good, just let yourself fully embrace it
And if it's alright you got to let it flow
If everything feels good, let it flow naturally without resisting
If I'm wrong don't want to know
There's no need to check if we're wrong, we should just enjoy the moment
If I'm right just let it show
If we're right about this moment, let's not hold back, let's fully express our joy
It's crazy, so crazy it just might be
This moment is wild and spontaneous, but maybe that is exactly what we need
I only care about today, tomorrow is too far away
We should focus only on today, because tomorrow is too distant and uncertain
Let's take it, and run run away with me
Let's take advantage of this moment and escape together
I think I love you
I am starting to realize that I am falling in love with you
And I need you by my side baby to the morning light
I want you to be with me by my side until the morning comes
What I got for you is love
What I can give you is nothing but pure love
Don't be afraid don't hesitate now
We should not allow fear or hesitation to stop us from living this moment fully
And if it feel right just let it go
If everything feels right, let's just let ourselves be fully immersed in the moment
And if it's alright you got to let it flow
If everything feels good, let's not hold back, let's just let it flow naturally
