Posted by Jenn Lowther and Nadia Nascimento

Nadia and I loooove <3 New Kids on the Block. I’ve been in love with them since I was a little girl and had my room plastered in NKOTB paraphernalia. I literally had it all - the action figures, trading cards, posters, sheets, sleeping bags, if they sold it - I spent my allowance on it.
I have to confess that I went through a stage where I couldn’t admit my undying love to Joey and Jordan, but with many years of therapy behind me now, I can once again announce my never ending love. And the best news - NKOTB are coming to VANCOUVER!!! Last time they were here, my Mom said that I was too young to go, not this time:)
They really are the best. Who else could have inspired one of my favorite viral videos of all time - D*ck in a Box? So in tribute to arguably the best boy band to exist ever in the history of time, I dedicate this post to you. I <3 you!!!
Jordan Knight half kissed my mouth last year and I suppose that’s when I actualized the 12 year old inside of me while re-releasing her into the world. How can you not love a man with jazz hands and a pompadour? The first 10 seconds of my video make me wonder why I don’t have a crush on Liza Minelli. Jordan…The torch I bear is the freedom to my youth so I trudge on. In your immortal words, “Come-a, come-a, come-a, mama, treat me right.” And I will.

Ok girls, if you’re gonna drop some NKOTB love and fawn over Jordan Knight you cant sleep on his solo action:

Is that the sweet production values of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis tickling my ear?? Probably not but it could be!

Noooooooooooooooooooooo!
NKOB was wrong on so many levels when I was growing up and they are that much more wrong now.
The jazz hands, the pompadour, the earrings… What did I do to deserve that clip…?
