October 15, 2010 New Kids on the Block members Jonathan Knight, Danny Wood, Jordan Knight, Joey McIntyre, and Donnie Wahlberg ended Wednesday night’s Mass. Eye and Ear benefit with a performance for supporters. Their set list included “This One’s for the Children’’ and “Hangin’ Tough.’’ . . . Meanwhile, Tom Selleck — Donnie and Bridget Moynahan’s costar on the CBS cop show “Blue Bloods’’ — spoke to Matt Siegel by phone on Kiss 108 yesterday about Donnie’s fans, who apparently wait around to get a glimpse of the New Kid while he’s filming in New York. Selleck also confessed to Matty (who, for some reason, kept referring to Moynahan as “Monahan’’) that Bridget is such a babe that he has to remind himself during scenes that he’s supposed to be her father on the show. Selleck will star in another installment of the late Robert Parker’s “Jesse Stone’’ series next year. . . . In other Wahlberg news, Donnie’s brother Mark was spotted yesterday strolling through the lobby of the Four Seasons. The actor’s next film, the boxer biopic “The Fighter,’’ comes out in December.
