The Crush On
You singer wrote: ‘To start off, I would like to say that I love each and EVERY
ONE of my fans. There’s something I’d like to say that I feel is important for
myself and my identity that has been weighing on my chest for nearly half of my
life. This doesn’t bring me shame, just a weight and burden I have held onto
for a long time that I would like lifted off me.’
He continued:
‘I grew up in this entertainment industry at a very young age and when I was
around 13-years-old I started to find boys and girls attractive.’
‘There were
years that went by that I thought about it, but it wasn’t until I was 17-years
old, after a few relationships with girls, I had an experience with a male that
I had an attraction to who I also worked with and grew up with.
’To me music
has always been my temple. Music will ALWAYS be what transcends all of us and
myself. The studio has always been my safe haven. But the ultimate goal for me
is to be satisfied. I never want to be a figure of disappointment.’
Aaron has sold
10 million records around the world, and released four studio albums.
He finally
quoted Culture Club frontman Boy George to sum up, saying: ‘“I’ve never felt as
though I didn’t belong. I just acted as though I did.” – BoyGeorge.’
Congratulations
Aaron!
