We walked into a hole-in-the-wall warehouse on Thursday to sneak a peek at New Kids on the Block and the Jabbawockeez rehearsing for their surprise joint performance on the “Today Show” — and let me tell you, it was quite the experience.
We were in a small studio space watching them perform and goof around, and there’s no doubt that these guys are talented. After several years, the members of New Kids on the Block still look as dreamy as ever and can still bust a move or two. If they came out as a new group in 2009 — having never been NKOTB — I firmly believe they would still hit it big and make the girls swoon. As for the Jabbawockeez, I was in awe over their dancing skills. In fact, I was so jealous of their moves that I asked them to teach me a thing or two. Needless say, I don’t think I’m going to be a Jabbawockee any time soon.
We have video of my little dance lesson, but for my own morale, I’d rather lock it away in a vault.
Not only can the Jabbawockeez dance their asses off, they can rap too! Phil “Swaggerboy” Tayag created a beat on the drums (there weren’t any drumsticks available so he used a pen and a water bottle!), and they were spitting verses right and left. Some members of NKOTB even joined in on the action!
I believe in seizing the day, so I decided to ask the question that most females would love to ask members of both groups: Boxers or briefs? (Can you really blame me for asking this? When’s the next time I’m going to be in front of Jordan Knight?) Instead of telling us the answer, Donnie Wahlberg decided to show us his undies — they looked like white boxer-briefs to me!
Donnie’s #1 fan, my co-worker Nicole Salamak (who also happens to still own the NKOTB sheets!) was smiling like she was a kid in a candy store. She said, “Being around them brought out the 10-year-old brace-face kid in me!” Imagine her elation when she saw Donnie’s white undies; I think she may have blacked out for a minute. In fact, Nicole would like me to deliver a message: Donnie, if you read this, please call her!
