Pop singer and Broadway star Ricky Martin will marry economist Carlos González in Spain, according to the Spanish daily El Pais. Martin recently became a citizen of Spain, which has allowed gay couples to marry since 2005.

Martin became a major pop sensation with his 1999 hit song “Livin’ la Vida Loca.” On Broadway, he was seen as Marius in Les Miserables, and will play Che in the Spring 2012 Broadway revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s Evita.
