Sam Champion is gay well what do you know

Well if you have no figured it out yet Sam Champion is gay. Yes, Sam Champion that does the weather on Good Morning America is gay. He came out with this glorious new on Friday and to tell you the truth Anderson Cooper has already stole his coming-out thunder.

First, what self-respecting gay man did not know Sam Champion was gay? Look at those perfect teeth, that sharp wit and those perfectly color coordinated clothes he wears on television. Are you telling me that people did not know?

And don't get this post wrong it's not like we are not proud but everyone wants to come-out now that Anderson Cooper and Frank Ocean plunged out of the closet after Obama proverbially come out of the closet himself for gay marriage.

Let's be real, being out and gay is the new hip thing if you are success and on TV. If you are an ordinary gay joe you have to suffer the stereotypes and stigmas of being out and gay. People don't see you in the same light when you don't have lots of money and adoring fans. To the average gay person being out can be nothing but headache and trouble.

Coming-out can also be one of the most liberating and inspiring days of a gay individuals life. You are telling the world "I am more than queer and I am definitely here." I am powerful, strong and deserve respect because no matter what I am going to be me whether you like it or not and God know's I hope you do.

Coming-out can be a hit or miss but what it will never be is useless. Sam Champion is leading by example so he is working a double not the devil in this case. Everyone in the gay community should support his decision and be proud of him.
