Spanish music star Pablo Alborán comes out: “I’m here to tell you that I am homosexual and it’s okay”

Congratulations to Spanish singer Pablo Alborán who took to social media today to come out publicly as a gay man.

In a three-minute video posted to Instagram, he said in part: “Today, I want my voice to be louder and for it to have more value and weight. I’m here to tell you that I am homosexual and it’s okay. Life goes on, everything will remain the same, but I’m going to be a little happier than I already am.”

Alboran said he feels blessed he was raised in a home where he had the freedom to be who he wanted to be and grateful for having the support of his friends and Warner Music.

“But unfortunately, there are so many people that did not have the same experience I did. That’s why today, without fear, I hope I can make somebody’s journey easier with this message. But above all, I do this for me.”
