Ricky Martin

After publicly announcing his homosexuality back in March, Ricky Martin's memoir titled "Me" will be published on Nov. 2, according to a press release sent out today (Aug. 19).

 

Ricky Martin Comes Out as a 'Fortunate Homosexual Man'

 

The book will be released simultaneously in English and Spanish (the latter titled "Yo") under Celebra, an imprint of the Penguin Group devoted to books by Latino celebrities.



According to a statement from his publicist, "Me" will discuss "his early childhood, his experiences in the renowned boy band Menudo, the challenges of increased fame that came with the 'Livin' La Vida Loca' phenomenon, his continued growth as a musician and his unique personal connection with millions of fans around the world. 



"Martin also explores life-changing decisions like coming to terms with his sexuality, becoming a father, and devoting himself to helping children around the world," the publicist continues.



Martin is set to release his upcoming as-yet-untitled album in 2011 and stars in the Broadway revival of "Evita" in spring 2012 as the male lead, Che.
