You Know... The Gay New Kid On The Block
The picture's just a joke... Jonathan Knight is totally cute and we were all over NKTOB knobs back in the day. Of course, back then, we though that every other member of the band was gay. We're mega-happy they're getting back together.
Though Perez Hilton broke this story eons ago, The National Enquirer just caught wind of the worst kept secret in the gayborhood—that Jordan Knight of New Kids On The Block fame is gay. Well, that's not the whole story, actually. It's more that his ex-lover from Fire Island has come forth with all sorts of details and photos. We can't wait to get our hot little hands on the issue. If you want more of the dish, check out Boy Culture or pick up the February 19th issue of The Enquirer for yourself and let us know what you think.
How about you? Did you suspect he was gay? How about the other members? Which was your favorite?

Danny use to give me hard on's. I remember when my brother was a big fan, he would bring home their teen mags and I would just look at Danny and wish I could lick his muscles.
I don't think Mark Wahlberg was in New Kids on the Block, was he? I thought his brother Donnie was...
donnie wahlburg was in nkotb --
mark dropped out early on before they became successful.
and yes, im a fag.
I found Joey and Donnie quite attractive and even more now, not a fan of the NKOTB music though.
Shouldn't "Older Guys On The Block" or "Men On The Block" be more appropriate these days? Just goes to show you should never name your band using age-restrictive words (like Boyzone).
If this is true, I'm glad! I always had a thing for Jordan back in the day!!
ALWAYS been in love with Jon. He made my gaydar go off MANY MANY YEARS ago.
I knew it! I had the biggest crush on Johnathan out of all NKOTB! Good for him. Too bad, he couldn't come out earlier. Would have made my life so much easier in the 90's!
The guy in the pictures above is Johnathan Knight, not the better looking brother Jordan... and yes... total fag here LOL
I too used to drool over Danny and his big muscles.
The guy in the pics is Jonathan, but I hafta say, I always thought Jordan was the gay one.
You know what sucks, no pun intended...the guy that sold him out only got like $8,000.
Talk about the real loser in all of this.
Another celebrity gets forced out of the closet by gossip bloggers and tabloid magazines, and we celebrate?
Coming out is a process that is different for each individual. Imagine if YOU had been forced out of the closet before you were ready...
Always the quiet ones...
I remember a Regis and Kelly interview recently where Kelly was asking the group members about their personal lives and completley skipped over Jonothan while going on and on about the wives and girlfriends of everyone else in the group. I somewhat assumed that they omitted his dating/married life for a reason. It was the first I'd thought about the posibility in a long time. Its too bad he couldn't have come out on his own terms.
I got dragged into going to their concert a few months ago - surprisingly it was probably the best concert I've been to in years. Their new music is really good too. Definitely check out the new cd if you like pop/dance music.
Jordan, Jonathan, I didn't keep track then or now. He looks much more handsome now than then. Maturity has treated him well.
I fell in love with Jordan back in the early 90s.His hairstyle was so modern and attractive.Jonathan was never particularly handsome to me.Not to talk about Marky Mark's brother.Actually, I never thought anyone of them was gay.I still don't quite believe in it-maybe those photos are just a good fake!
I never even notice this guy was a member. My eyes were elsewhere, probably on Jordan on those great 80's jeans.
