Hong Kong popstar Anthony Wong came out during a concert last night, the last of a run of four dates celebrating the 25th anniversary of his old band, Tat Ming Pair.

'I'm not a tongzhi, I'm homosexual, I'm GAY gay,' said Wong, as reported by Shanghaiist. 'Tongzhi', Mandarin slang for gay, literally means 'comrade'.

Wong's very public outing was met by loud applause and screams from his fans.
