Westlife singer Mark Feehily has revealed that he is gay, saying that the time was right for him to let people know the truth.
In an interview with The Sun, Feehily said: "I am gay and I'm very proud of who I am. I'm not asking for any sympathy or to be a role model to anyone else."
"My close friends and family - the people I love - have been incredibly supportive to me and that's what really matters," he said.
The 25-year-old singer also said in the interview that he was not worried about people's reactions to his announcement because he is happy being himself.
Feehily is currently in a long-term relationship with former boyband singer Kevin McDaid.

I think "good on 'im" means "congrats on bravely admitting your gayness in the notoriously heterosexual world of pop music". He's a veritable Red Adare.

Jeez, Una yr mind works in strange ways.
'Good on im' means fair dues to him for coming out and thusly willing to subject himself to all the finger-pointing, sniggering and prejudice he's going to face in the future.He could have just have kept it quiet. I'm not 'congratuating' him on being gay. My brother is gay so I Know slightly more than others about some sections society's attitude towards gays and lesbians.
Now,If Westlife just went away and we never had to listen to their awful, offensively bland and vacous 'music', now THAT would be something truly newsworthy!!!!!

Ok, thats enough kids, this is a forum for the discussion of music and this non-topic is just as pointless as one beginning with the heading 'Mick Jagger is straight'.
