I remember scoffing upon the release of New Kids on the Block’s 1990 single “Games,” which opened with the the lines, “Somebody said somebody wouldn’t last too long / Somebody keeps going strong.” It seemed like a rather defensive missive from a group whose 15 minutes of fame were winding down. Well, they sure showed…
The video for New Kids on the Block’s “One More Night,” here to remind you how old you are, has a lot of lonely introspection and gazing out of windows, like boy bands are trained to do. The softball mid-tempo song is the first from the band’s EP Thankful, releasing in May to go along with their spring/summer Total…
Today in Why Is This A Thing, Jordan Knight and Nick Carter have a duet album called Nick and Knight, out on Tuesday. Your head will also probably explode once this thing hits store shelves because that’s what happens when Boy Band members from two different generations clash in the name of self promotion.
GUYS, Titanic was on the Hallmark Channel a while ago, and now I am thinking that perhaps this was the magic eve* that Kate Winslet became pregnant with her first child from her third marriage to Ned Rocknroll, the gadabout nephew of Richard Branson. Her two older children, 12 and 9 respectively, are from her…
Once upon a time, Cameron Diaz turned 40 and started making depressing and obvious statements to Access Hollywood like "Look, the alternative to getting older is [being dead]." Diaz has since found herself in what the tabloids are calling "a bit of a mid-life crisis" since her split from Alex Rodriguez and a fling…
You have doubtlessly shed a bitter tear over professional fishmouth Steven Tyler's departure from his post as an American Idol judge. Said Tyler in what could loosely be called a statement: "After some long…hard…thoughts…I've decided it's time for me to let go of my mistress 'American Idol' before she boils my…
A strange feeling may form inside you as you watch this clip about the portmanteau-named manband NKOTBSB. The whole "in the studio with the former teen idols" angle feels like a fake Behind The Music skit from Saturday Night Live. And haven't we reached a place where the words "kids" and "boys" no longer apply? And…
Young women develop their ability to have crushes on boys years before they develop a gaydar to help discern upon which boys crushes would be fruitless. In the gap years lies the careers of Ricky Martin and Jonathan Knight.
Backstreet's back, alright? You've been hangin' tough, but now you're like, "I want it that way."

The New Kids on the Block finally got a chance to perform on Today this morning, after Gustav rained on their parade last week. Their newest album, The Block, was released on Tuesday, and while they did perform a new track off it today with Ne-Yo, the fans really just wanted to hear the old hits. Knowing that, the…

Like all magical things, this piece of celebrity memorabilia is for sale on eBay (current bid $158.00, there is no God). • Hm, we wonder how the Hiltons feel about the $4,600 they donated to John McCain's campaign last year being…
