Thanks in part to the recent trend of boy band revivals, 2014 is starting to feel like 1997 all over again, rivalries and feuds included. Verbal shots were fired between 'N SYNC’s Joey Fatone and the Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter, but at least one member of this conflict is ready to forgive and forget for old times’ sake.
Get ready to shriek, NKOTBSB fans -- we have some unbelievable news for you! Nick Carter and Jordan Knight have just announced that they will be releasing an album together and embarking on a fall tour. Say whaaaat!
Performing in front of large groups of people can be nerve-racking, and just because you've done it for years doesn't make it any easier. Just ask NKOTB's Jonathan Knight, who walked off the stage during the boy band's New York City concert and never returned.
Children of the '90s, rejoice! Less than a year after wrapping up their hugely successful boy band tour with the Backstreet Boys, New Kids on the Block will try to repeat that success by heading out on the road this summer with 98 Degrees and Boyz II Men. And this isn't just a nostalgia tour — NKOTB announced that they have a brand new single and album on the way too!
New Kids on the Block member Jordan Knight, easily the hunkiest in the renewed boy band, is like a younger, thinner and more handsome Santa Claus in the amazeballs Jordan Knight Before Christmas Old Navy spot. He gets an assist from the Boyz II Men crew, who are from his generation of pop music, as well as crooner Johnny Mathis.
Everyone’s taking quite the trip down memory lane lately. First we had the Spice Girls performing at the 2012 Olympic Closing Ceremony, then it was 98 Degrees reuniting on ‘The Today Show,’ and now it’s 98 Degrees again, performing with the Wanted and New Kids on the Block at the first-ever MixTape Festival in Hershey, Penn. We’re not really complaining…
