MS Society honors Summit Entertainment's Rob Friedman

By Peter Gonzaga, Beverly Hills, CA

Last night the Southern California chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society honored Summit Entertainment's Rob Friedman, Co-Chairman and CEO, Summit Entertainment for his continued support in bringing the world to a more multiple sclerosis free community.

Billed as "The Multiple Sclerosis Society's Annual Dinner of Champions," Tom Sherak and Joe Roth co-hosted the event. Celebrities walking the press line included Nia Vardalos, Ian Gomez, James Blunt, Joe McIntyre, David Lander, Natalie Lander, Billy Burke, Byron Allen, Marlon Wayans and Kathryn Bigelow.

Adam Sandler was seen enjoying the company of his daughter but did not walk the press line. Giovanni Ribisi took a quick moment to pose for the cameras and interview with a couple of video outlets. Ribisi is known to pose for a quick moment so it was a miracle that he posed for as long as he did. Byron Allen was excited to show off his wife's pregnancy. He proudly announced, "She's due in April."

Joe McIntyre was already enjoying the event with pre-dinner cocktails with his wife. Thankfully one of the photographers noticed him and was able to wrangle McIntyre to the press line. Wearing a light colored suit, the New Kids On The Block singer still has the penetrating baby blue eyes that made girls fall in love with during the group's heydey. Even one photographer couldn't resist asking to pose with McIntyre. The photographer laughingly quipped, "He was supposed to be my fantasy husband when I was kid."

Speaking of fantasy along with sci-fi, Summit Entertainment is known for its widely popular film "Twilight." It was definitely fitting to see "Twilight" star Billy Burke show some love to Rob Friedman. Unfortunately, other "Twilight" cast members may have not be available due to the shooting schedule of the follow up film "The Twilight Saga: New Moon."

Step by step: The childhood home of the Knight brothers

It's not listed in any tourist guide, but NKOTB fans flock to the house where the Knight brothers grew up By Johnny Diaz Globe Staff / November 15, 2008 When Kari Lusso and her trio of girlfriends flew from Seattle to Boston for the New Kids on the Block concert, they had to make a quick detour. On a rainy Saturday night, the friends drove their rental car to 10 Melville Ave. As they stood in front of the Victorian house, they shrieked and giggled like little girls. The commotion? They were at the former home of the band's brothers Jonathan and Jordan Knight. When they rang the bell, they got a quick tour. "It was going from 31 to 13," Lusso said. "We took pictures of their stove. We took pictures of their floor. We took pictures of the banister, the living room, and their bedrooms. What a dream come true to see such an...

NKOTB's Joey McIntyre Gives Update on BSB A.J. McLean in Rehab

New Kids on the Block singer Joey McIntyre has been in the music business for over 24 years and has seen some friends battle with addiction in the limelight, including Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean who recently made the decision to enter rehab. "A.J. is a sweet kid, good kid and extremely talented, so we're all there for him," said Joey. AJ admitted himself earlier this month before heading on the huge NKOTB/BSB tour. Young star Aaron Carter is reportedly seeking professional help as well to deal with some unknown "emotional and spiritual issues," and Joey commended Aaron for making that step. "To me it's usually a good thing when someone can take some time and retreat from it all and, you know, just get a little bit more centered," Joey said, encouragingly. Justin Bieber has managed to stay clean in his career thus far and Joey gave some advice to the star for staying on the right track. "Hopefully, kids like Justin… there...
