Watch NKOTB’s New “2 in the Morning” Video

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories:

There really isn’t much of a point to this post other than to give rabid New Kids on the Block fans more eye candy. The video’s concept is pretty basic: Couple gets into a argument…girl in unusually large apartment overacts while holding phone…hot guy sits expressionless in the car…the softly-lit men groove in the background…blah, blah, blah.

But after watching the entire clip for “2 in the Morning,” rewind back to the :56 mark and answer me one thing: Does Jonathan Knight even look he wants to be there?

New Kids on the Block Hits the Cruise Ships

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Concerts / Tours, Pop

Are you one of the few who can afford a vacation this year? If so, maybe a trip on the high seas with NKOTB is in your future.

Although they’re still in the middle of their concert tour, the five members of New Kids on the Block - Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood, Jonathan Knight and Jordan Knight - are planning to bring their act to a cruise ship later this year. (I can hear Simon Cowell laughing now.)

Those who have May 15-18 currently free on their calendars can board the ship traveling between Fort Lauderdale, FL and the Bahamas. According to the band’s website, passengers can expect “live shows, meet/greets, photo ops, memorabilia and more.”

Tickets for the journey went on sale today. For more information, you can click here.
