Ricky Martin and fiancé Jwan Yosef have shared a cachet of deeply moving photos featuring Martin in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria sent the island into catastrophe and killed at least 34 people.
The “Vente Pa’ Ca” singer writes, “Everything is going to be ok and my island will shine again. BUT WE NEED TO WORK… ALOT.”

According to the New York Times, Hurricane Maria destroyed roughly 80% of the island’s crop value — approximately $780 million in losses — when it tore through the island on Wednesday, September 30.
The 45-year-old pop singer was born in San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, and home to some of the island’s best nightlife.

“It’s incredibly intense what Puerto Rico is going through at the moment,” Martin writes on Instagram. “It will take a long time for my island to go back [to] what it was.”
‘The governor of Puerto Rico Ricardo Rosselló said it will cost approximately 90 billion dollars to rebuild the island.
We need more help. Thousands of families lost EVERYTHING …….but their smiles and love for life is intact.”

Ricky Martin is doing more for Puerto Rico than Donald Trump is. That’s just wrong and disgusting. We now live in a world where reality stars are celebrities who make headlines over a hurricane. Yet when real stars, like Ricky, try and help it gets ZIPPO press. While we are on the subject do you know what US idiot oops, I mean, President Donald Trump said about the whole thing? I’ll share it with you.
” “Officials should be ‘proud’ more haven’t died like in Katrina!” That is what YOUR President thinks of the whole Puerto Rico fiasco. Remember this when he comes callin’ for your vote again!

Trump blames the mayor, Ricky digs in and helps. Just who is the hero?

Based on the photos and the article, I’m not seeing what exact he did to help other than take pictures of himself smiling
