Bulgaria's famed Roma gay and popfolk star Azis, who "married" his long-time lover at a mock ceremony last October, is celebrating the birth of a baby girl.

The mother of the child is Azis friend Gala, the singer himself is the biological father of the baby, who will have his boyfriend for a second daddy.

The little wonder has been named Raya.

Same-sex marriages are illegal in the country, but that didn't stop the folk singer from re-enacting the whole ritual with his boyfriend Niki Kitaetsa (The Chinese) last year.

Azis, 28, has already delivered a load of highly controversial videos and stage performances and his whims can hardly shock anyone in Bulgaria.

Many of his music clips show the Roma singer in erotic interaction with other males.

Azis has also developed a liking for plastic surgery, and his penis enlargement and lip surgery received much attention by local media.
