Christian Chavez,
23, of Mexican pop group RBD, announced Thursday
on the group's Web site, www.grupo-rbd.com, that he is gay. He
says the recent release of compromising photos of him
pushed him to come out. He wrote: "Although I'm scared
and filled with uncertainty, I know that I can rely on
the support of my fans, their love is bigger than all of
this. I ask them from the bottom of my heart not to judge me
for being honest and to feel proud of who they are and
never make the same mistake I did."
RBD is a Latin
Grammy–nominated group that has sold over 9.5 million
albums worldwide since its January 2005 debut. It has
had huge success in Latin America, and band members
are currently working on a sitcom, RBD: La
Familia. (The Advocate)
