Taken from MSN UK:

Former Steps singer Ian 'H' Watkins has revealed he is gay as he prepares to enter the Celebrity Big Brother house.

The Welsh singer-turned-actor, 30, is quoted in The Sun as saying: "I come from a small valley in Wales and it just wasn't the thing to do to be gay. It's a bit of a cliche - but I was the only gay in the village.

Watkins, from Cwmparc in Rhondda Valley, told his family and friends about his sexuality when he was 21, but did not tell fans.

He said: "I could never have done this (come out) years ago, never ... But I'm comfortable with who I am now and I want everyone to know.

Since topping the charts as part of the cheesy pop band Steps, he has starred in musicals such as Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

The Sun says Watkins will be joining other celebrities in the Big Brother house on Wednesday night.


Anyone surprised, etc? I was SO sure it was gonna be Lee!

That was so obvious. I'm delighted that the great Jo O'Meara is on the show this year. Previous years I have never really bothered watching the show however this year, due to Jo being on it I'm definately gonna watch it and vote for her. She is such a nice, down to earth person and one thing that was glaringly obvious last night when all the celebrities were introduced, is that Jo is the only one who isn't big headed and fake. I really think and hope that she wins and it boosts her career just like Preston did for The Ordinary Boys and I hope that she gets a new record deal after quitting her previous label and has more success this time round.

She left previous label Sanctuary Records because she was annoyed with them after feeling let down by them although yes they did have financial problems but they occured long before they signed Jo and they have not yet gone bankrupt. Also, I have found out that Jo has become the first celebrity to have to share the double bed with someone, this being a drunken Donny. Should be interesting. I'll now have to watch both Just The Two Of Us which incidently Jo got to the semi final of last year, and Big Brother. Also incidently, Tito Jackson is one of the judges this year for Just The Two Of Us and he really does seem like a really nice, general guy. Jermaine also seems like a really nice guy as welll.

Yeah i'll agree with everyone else and say it painfully clear he was gay. Good on him for confirming it though.

I hope he's good on CBB, Jo to win though! cheer.gif

Hardly comes as a shock, it was pretty obvious.

Good luck to him I suppose but there is something about him that annoys me!!!
