Singer Ricky Martin has congratulated Argentina on becoming the first Latin American country to legalize gay marriage.
The pop star praised Thursday's early morning passage of a gay marriage bill on the micro-blogging site Twitter.
“Argentina, nation that is pensive, tolerant and just has made history by saying YES to gay marriage!” he wrote in Spanish. “Example for the rest of Latin America! Congratulations!”
The 38-year-old Martin had also urged lawmakers to approve the law in a Wednesday tweet to over 1 million followers: “Let's go Argentina! The same rights with the same name for everyone.”
The Livin' La Vida Loca star came out gay in a March blog post on his fan website, ending nearly a decade of speculation on the Puerto Rican entertainer's sexual orientation.
Last month he opened up about his love life, telling People en Espanol that his boyfriend is a childhood friend with whom he became reacquainted with over a year ago in Miami. Martin said the investment analyst helps with raising his children, twin boys Valentino and Matteo.
