BTW, someone should really educate Tiffany that people don't turn gay due to a bad relationship. Really hope she wasn't serious when she said that.

I thought Joey McIntyre was like 12yo back then? Was he sleeping with the groupies too?

Didn't they get really successful with their 2nd album? He must have been 14-15 by then I think. I don't know about Joey specifically, but if not it wasn't because he was too young.

I am confused by all of this because I thought Knight was "out" but just never made a media spectacle about it. He never wanted to appear on a show or out himself in a book like some other pseudo celebrities we know.

So I don't think Tiffany did him any harm and she wouldn't have said what she said if she knew he was still in the closet.

Same here. Joey was a boy "in their day," so I never gave him much thought. But, then, years later, I saw him on DWTS. beep beep!

SYFY has a movie starring Tiffany and Debbie Gibson called "Mega Python VS Gatoroid". They even have a Dynasty-type brawl!!!!

And crabs, although they can be transmitted sexually, are also about bad hygiene as well. Jon always was so polite in his interviews too.

I know that sounded a bit

to me as well.

Jonathan Knight looks a lot like Brian Orser in the pic used in that article.

I opened this thread because I had no idea who Tiffany or Jonathan Knight is. Still don't really.

I'm more disturbed that they are 39 and 42 and having this conversation over Twitter.

Maybe these two D-listers thought they were alone, as there didn't seem to be anyone around.

He's aged well

**ks777** · 01-26-2011, 07:41 AM

To be honest, I thought all the boy bands were gay...

From the article link (post #1):

"He's fabulous. But he became gay later," she said before jokingly adding that she wasn't sure if she had a hand in "switching" his sexuality.

My guess is that when she jokingly said this, she meant it as a joke. But I'm just guessing...

Two of the most on-point posts on this thread - and funniest

.
The E! Channel showed scenes from that execrable TV movie they'll be starring in about some swamp monster. They engage in a Dynasty-style catfight.

Jonathan "officially" came out today

Well, Peoria had to find out sooner or later...

Jon was actually always my favourite NK.

As for Joey, he tried his hand in acting for a while - I think he was on broadway, and he was also in that Boston Public TV show. And I think it was recently announced that he and his wife are expecting another baby.

If it weren't for the inclusion of the Backstreet Douches, I'd definitely go see NKOTB's show.

**judiz** · 02-01-2011, 02:59 AM

Jon was also my favorite, when I finally got to a New Kids concert, he had already left the group. I saw Joey on Broadway in Wicked, he wasn't bad.
