New Kids On The Block Are Coming BACK, BABY!

Posted by Karen Sugarpants


I'll be the first to admit I was the most devoted NKOTB fan that ever lived.  I'm 33 years old and have fresh and vivid memories of Toronto concerts with girlfriends, the thrill of opening a fresh teen magazine with my favorite, Donnie Walhberg on the cover, and the letters I wrote to him.  (Yes, really.) 

As a teenager, I wanted to know every detail about these boys from Boston.  

Well they're making a comeback and the mom in me is so worried they are going to flop.  They aren't the boys they once were, they're men.  3 of them are fathers.  Here's the quick version of where they are at:

Joey McIntyre: Married to Barrett, the couple welcomed their first son on November 20, 2007.

Jordan Knight: Married to Evelen, the couple have two kids, Dante, 8, and Eric, 1.

Jonathon Knight: 39, works as a real estate developer in Mass.

Danny Wood: Divorced, runs his own record label.

Donnie Walhberg: Married to Kim Fey, the couple have two sons, Xavier and Elijah.

I'll tell you one thing.  Watching these videos totally made me stop breathing.  Hi, I'm a 15 year old again.

Good luck boys, er, guys.  Sign up for updates here: http://www.nkotb.com/
