Christian Chavez Madness
The press had a field day with our exclusive Christian Chavez images and our ears were buzzing like crazy as the whole world talked about Latin Gossip.
Christian is saying that he was being blackmailed by someone, and we want to make it clear that it was not us! We did call RBD’s record label to get their input before we published the pictures, but they did not return our calls.
Few people have criticized our decision to publish the photos, most have applauded us, but we feel that it is no different than when the news media ‘outs’ the relationships of other celebrities.
We have mentioned it before, but it is worth repeating. We are very happy for Christian and BJ and wish them both all the best! Christian asked for tolerance, but we think we can give them something a little better…respect!
More examples of the media madness after the jump.

LOL, I can’t say that I’d be too thrilled with you guys if I was Christian. Hell, if that were me, you’d all be tasting the shiny front bumper of my Mercedes! This kind of “story” is right at home on a gossip website, and unless you scraped the bottom of the barrel and PAID for those images KNOWING they were not the property of the person from whom they were purchased, then no biggie, right?

We love Christian and as a lesbian I feel proud that he came out.. and I hope he is very happy.. I’m so happy also that MExico is not making a huge deal about it and they are accepeting him meaning that there is more tolerance in that country..

Dude, I was totally thinking about this yesterday. All the media outlets pointed their sources to this one site. Crazy! Too bad they aren’t A list in the US otherwise this story could have been BIG. Bigger than Tom Hanks in BIG.
I don’t know how people are suppose to be shocked at his coming out. Look at those stock photos of him. He’s like a walking stereotype. No offense, but he is. Too obvious. I just finished watching the video where he says he was being blackmailed. Even I could have blackmailed him.

I am so happy for him and think that you guys at Latin Gossip did the right thing. Because of you, Christian is now happy and free and Mexico can grow and learn from this.
Sometimes it is hard in such a machista culture, but these things help to ease that.

Why did you guys do that? You can’t just put stuff on your website without having Christian approve to it! But I’m sort of glad you did that because now know of a lot of people tat are on Christian’s side in other words the people who support him and will. I’m really happy to say that Christian I’ll alaways support you no matter what. If anyone says anything bad about you then don’t worry about it because major carma will come to all the stupid people who say anything bad about you.

Christian as I said before don’t worry about all the stupid people (like luis) say it’s none of their bussines if they’re just going to say bad things about you I hope all the people that are being domb things about you will get major carma. I hope I’m right when I say me and all the other people who have been supporting you will always be by your side in a situation like this. No one can blaim you for being happy. If your happy I’m happy.

Hopefully this will encourage other Latin gays like Ricky Martin to come out of the closet. I’m just a white American girl so I have no clue who RBD or Chavez are but good for him that it is finally out there and he doesn’t have to pretend anymore. This situation kind of reminds me of Lance Bass of ‘N Sync. He didn’t want to come out as gay while the band was active because he didn’t want to damage the careers of his bandmates, he was worried the teen girls would no longer fancy the band if they knew he was gay. Christian is probably proud of his homosexuality but had the same fears of coming out. But just from looking at the guy, it was pretty obvious he was gay.
Hopefully this news will create more traffic on your site. It looks pretty dead here. There are very few people commenting!

Lynne, the first sentence of your comment had me cracking up.
Jessica, in reference to your statement (LG can’t just put stuff like this on their website), they can and did - deal with it.

His sexuality is not going to make him less or more of a man.
Christian is a very talented man who has an incredible voice and nothing will change that,people who actually love there music should not worry about his personal life..
RBD rocks
Christian I wish you the best of luck and happienss in whatever you do.

I know I already left a comment, but I felt compelled to write another!
First of all, it is great that Christian came out, or better yet was pushed out by you guys. In a country where being “macho” is an expectation it is wonderful to see that Christian is being accepted and loved by the majority of the population. I think the response to his “coming out” showed that Mexico and Latin America is becoming a lot more socially progressive. As far as the people who congratulate him for his bravery, I’m sorry if I offend you, but I find no hint of bravery in anything he did. The only reason he came out was because he could no longer deny it! To me that does not show any bravery! Bravery would have been if he said he was gay from the start. He denied being gay outright. He denied who and what he was, that to me is true cowardice! I do however support him in everything he does. I am not a fan of RBD nor did I become one after the news, but I am glad that finally millions of young gay Mexicans now have someone to look up to! To all the hateful people who made bad comment about Christian, I do not think anyone deserves to die because of their sexual preference! If you look into history you will find the story of a man who decided to kill people because of the way they lived! He is not a hero, he is Hitler a name that is synonymous with evil! To say that all gays should die is just as ludacris as saying all Jews should die! By saying stupid and very ignorant things like that you only make yourself look bad. To the one person who wrote that she liked RBD until she found out! I say first of all, if you didn’t already know something is wrong with you! Second, he did not lose his talent when he lost his heterosexuality! He is a very talented person and he will remain a very talented person always. The fact that he’s gay has nothing to do with his ability to sing or act!
