Our Money Is On Some D-Lister We Won't Even Care About

Ricky Martin recently came out about being a homosexual. Not exactly earth shattering news, but still a commendable act of personal courage for the father of two.

So which Hollywood celebrity is going to come out on May 5?

People Magazine allegedly has the exclusive and the celeb is booked on several major talk shows that week including The View. Our tipsters also claim PR powerhouse Howard Bragman, who has successfully some might add brilliantly orchestrated several celeb outings in the past decade talked about his next coming out project.

Bragman -- the coming out king of Hollywood -- doesn't want to speculate on who it will be (that would kind of ruin his well-planned surprise, wouldn't it) but In the past he's
helped NFL defensive lineman Esera Tuaolo, LPGA star Rosie Jones, WNBA star Sheryl Swoops and retired NBA center John Amaechi come out.

He also orchestrated the plans for former "Party of Five" Mitchell Anderson, "Married with Children" co-star Amanda Bearse and aided Dick Sargent of "Bewitched" fame to come out on Entertainment Tonight. Most recently, he planned Chaz Bono's announcement of a transition from woman to man and got the news about Meredith Baxter being a lesbian out before tabloids reported her taking a lesbian cruise.

Bragman has been talking a lot about how it's time a gay man be cast as a superhero. But one of our sources slipped and may have given us an additional clue about the celebrity's identity. They used the pronoun she when talking about the mysterious upcoming guest. They quickly tried to correct themselves by going back to using he, but it was too late. Additionally, Michael Musto of The Village Voice seems to think it's a singer or someone involved in music.

So, with all these conflicting clues, dear readers, your guess is as good as ours.

Our guess: Female and a singer? Hermmmm. Justin Bieber?
