Country Music Artist Chely Wright Comes Out

Country singer Chely Wright's reasoning was sound. "There had never,
ever been a country music artist who had acknowledged his or her
homosexuality," she tells PEOPLE. "I wasn't going to be the first."

But now Wright is changing her tune. "Nothing in my life has been more
magical than the moment I decided to come out," she says.

Wright, 39, recalls of her youth in the South: "I don't have a memory
in my life that doesn't include the dream of making music." But during
her childhood and rapid ascent to fame in the county world, she also
experienced a community in which homosexuality was shunned. "I hid
everything for my music," says Wright.

The singer-songwriter, who has won both an Academy of Country Music
and a Country Music award, will later this week release her memoir,
Like Me, as well as her first album in five years, Lifted off the
Ground.

She'll also appear on the Today Show Wednesday to discuss her personal
journey.

PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday

Gee, the guessing was funner than the ensuing snooze-a-rama.

Was/is she really country? I've listened almost exclusively to
country radio stations for years and can't tell you a single song by
k.d. lang.

Actually it is 1 word and two letters if you want to get technical, but the
letters are always pronounced together as if they are the word "Kadie",
never as distinct words.

Yes we do. She is Chely 'The Magical Lesbian' Wright! Famous only
for being one of the few (if only) semi attractive 'carpet munchers'
of country music!
