The rumor tank surrounding Daddy Yankee’s sexual orientation is filled to the brim with gasolina.
But his rep has slammed on the brakes and dismissed speculation that the reggaeton artist is gay.
“Online blogs and social media are once again to blame for the spread of false news reports, which other media outlets have also shared regarding a public figure,” Mayna Nevarez said in a statement.
The rumors were in full swing earlier this week when numerous Spanish-language websites posted a photo of a man who resembled the “Gasolina” rapper kissing another man. The stories paired with the pic alleged that Yankee released a statement confirming he was gay.
The reported statement that his rep is adamantly refuting as false said, “I am a human being like any other, with virtues and defects, and I don’t believe that this is a defect.”
Nevarez continued to dispel the myth claiming, “The reports circulating regarding Daddy Yankee’s declaration of homosexuality was falsely written by an online outlet known for fabricating false information and spreading it through social media sites.”
The 36-year-old reggaeton artist fired back at a recent press conference to further deny the homosexual reports.
“Now, again to you ignorant ones: the Internet is where the lies become truth and truth becomes myth. Wake up, bobo!” he said.
The rumor-mongering first began to spread when Yankee was asked his opinion on gay marriage at another press conference.
“I have people on my team who are gay,” he confessed. “I respect them entirely and give them work.”
He continued by indicating that while he takes full regard for human rights, gay marriage should be something the governments and religious figures decide upon.
After all the speculations that have arisen from his opinion and the alleged kissing photo, Yankee posted an Albert Einstein quote alongside Nevarez’s statement.
He wrote the quote in Spanish: “I fear the day when technology overlaps humanity. It will be then that the world will have permanent ensuing generations of idiots.”
