New Kids On The Block (NKOTB) are making a comeback!

NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK MAKING A COMEBACK

After months of speculation and rumor, the Kids are coming back. A well-placed source tells PEOPLE exclusively that New Kids On The Block are indeed getting back together.

The band's Web site, www.nkotb.com, which had been dormant, is now back up and running in anticipation of the official announcement, which the source says will be made in the next few weeks.

The site currently features a television graphic with a fuzzy, flickering photos of NKOTB in their heyday, and a link inviting fans to sign up for info.

The boy band, which made legions of tweens swoon in the early '90s, selling more than 50 million albums, became a worldwide phenomenon before calling it quits in 1994.

Eighteen years later, they're still "Hangin' Tough." The oldest "Kid," Jonathan Knight, now a real estate developer, will turn 40 later this year. Since the band's demise, former members Donnie Wahlberg, 38, and Joey McIntyre, 35, have seen acting success, while Danny Wood, 38, has worked as a music producer and Knight's brother, Jordan, 37, has continued to record.


eta: I didn't know this was posted on the Celebrity Board already... But regardless...IM SO EXCITED!!!

Hmmm....not sure how that is going to go...I might just be better off enjoying my old memories of them.

No matter what, I will always love them!

Wow! I was a big fan as a kid. Don't know how I'll feel about them the second time around, though. My music tastes have changed! Chat Icon

Omg me too. I had everything NKOTB. Even the big 6" huge buttons and the bedsheets. I always felt like I was having a sleepover with my boyfriend Jordan. Jordan Knight lol

I went to a BLI Summerjam in 04 and Jordan Knight was there and he started singing NKOTB songs, and I felt like I was reliving my youth. Everyone around me was staring at me because I was singing along (at the top of my lungs) to EVERY song!!!

hahahahah omg this is going to be so much better than any reunion concert ever!!! I'm totally going!!!!

I had it all. I'm sure that if I dig in my closets I had growing up I will be able to find somethings. I saw Joey McIntyre at the dancing with the stars tour I took my mom too. I was never a fan of him. I will always be on "Team Jordan." I loved his fangy teeth.

And someone please tell me why I'm watching NKOTB videos on you tube. And my dh def just called me a loser lol. He will never understand what NKOTB did for a young girl!!!!

Heck I still have my NKOTB towels in my linen closet 20 years later! I still have all my stuff - all 80 trading cards in a baseball card book, all the dolls (Joey and Jon in the boxes), buttons, magazines, everything - I LOVED them and I still do!!!!Chat Icon
