People Mag's Big Gay Reveal: Chely Wright

She Came Out And Didn't Drag Kenny Chesney Out W?th Her? EPIC FAIL!

Well touch me in the morning and then just walk away.

After all the hot and heavy foreplay about which celeb was going to celebrate their ability to flawlessly accessorize an outfit and come out of the closet on the May 5th cover of People, the mag confirmed the blind item is. . . country singer Chely Wright (aka WHO?!).

Evidently they blew all the hush money on keeping Sandra Bullock's baby news a secret and couldn't afford a copy of Merriam-Webster's dictionary to look up the meaning of the word "celebrity."

Chely Wright had one song that topped the charts eleven years ago and one ACM award back in 1999, meaning she's completely obsolete in every sense of the word. If you drew a Venn diagram of people who cared and the people who were shocked, there would be no intersection. It'd just be two lonely, detached circles ten feet away from each other.

Chely, who has a book called "Like Me" and a CD, "Lifted Off the Ground," coming out this week, tells People, "There had never, ever been a country music artist who had acknowledged his or her homosexuality (Ed note: K.D. Lang just shank eyed the bish). I wasn't going to be the first. Nothing in my life has been more magical than the moment I decided to come out."

We're sure it'll also be a pretty magical day when Wright sees all the extra sales of her CD and book because of her People magazine cover. Because there is nothing more special in a girl's life than her first publicity stunt. *Sniffle* There's a tear in our beer at the thought.

And somewhere Queen Latifah is saying, "Neener, neener, told you it wasn't me."
