Boston has a special place in graffiti history — and not just because one of our early marquee vandals, Popeye, was Jordan Knight of the New Kids on the Block. Popeye, aka Jordan Knight of the New Kids on the Block, Mattapan trolley line, 1986.

  Kirstie Alley (with Jonathan Knight of NKOTB!) and the rest of her Dancing With the Stars competitors celebrated their second week of competition with a group dinner at Cleo last night after the big show. Kirstie continued to wow in the competition, and not just with her dancing skills -- the 60-year-old laid an impromptu smack on her 31-year-old partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy at the end of her quickstep. She didn't score quite as high as she did the previous week with her debut Cha Cha, but Kirstie feels confident she'll survive tonight's elimination to dance again next week. "Next week Rumba..." Kirstie tweeted last night. "Better be hot or I'll stab myself in the vag." See Kirstie's kiss after the jump!

March 22, 2011  New Kids On The Block's Joey McIntyre has been busy helping spread the word about pediatric hearing loss. The singer is the latest famous face to lend his support to Hear The World, a global initiative launched by hearing instrument manufacturer Phonak to raise awareness about the importance of hearing and the consequences of hearing loss. McIntyre also appears in the Hear the World public service announcement around the importance of pediatric hearing testing and early diagnosis . After his son Rhys was born with severe hearing loss, McIntyre made it his mission to educate the public about the importance of early diagnosis, as well as solutions available to treat hearing loss in children. “As a musician, music – and the ability to hear it – is the cornerstone of my life, so when my son was diagnosed with severe hearing loss, I wasn’t sure how to handle it,” said McIntyre. “Thankfully, because of today’s advanced hearing aid technology, I don’t have t...

If you missed this week's episode of " Blue Bloods ," "Silver Star," don't worry, you only missed the best episode yet.When a veteran of the Iraq war (Aaron Dean Eisenberg) is left dead in an alley for hours, Danny (Donnie Wahlberg) goes into marine mode and demands respect for his fellow fallen soldier. Seeing as how the murdered soldier is an ex-marine, Danny does everything in his power to find the killers and bring them to justice. For the first time, "Blue Bloods" has given us the opportunity to see the murder as it happens, as well as the culprits so there was no mystery as to who killed the victim. This could have been so that the viewer was more focused on Danny's passion in catching the men who killed the marine. While we are all aware that Danny served time in the Iraq war, no details as to what he ...

Hearing loss is the number one birth defect in the United States, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics — and Joey McIntyre is lending his time to encourage parents to have their children’s hearing tested early on. The New Kids on the Block member has taped a public service announcement for Hear the World, a global initiative launched by hearing instrument manufacturer Phonak to raise awareness about the importance of hearing and the consequences of hearing loss. Son Rhys was born with severe hearing loss in Dec. 2009, and McIntyre soon went public with his family’s journey in an effort to educate about the importance of early diagnosis. “As a musician, music – and the ability to hear it – is the cornerstone of my life, so when my son was diagnosed with severe hearing loss, I wasn’t sure how to handle it,” explains McIntyre. “Thankfully, because of today’s advanced hearing aid technology, I don’t have to worry about my son missing a beat.

By Jo Piazza | March 17, 2011   Joey McIntyre still has that baby face that made him so popular in New Kids on the Block, but these days he is a dad himself and is expecting another baby in May. In Dec. 2009, Joey’s son, Rhys, was born with severe hearing loss. Since then, the singer has been public about his family’s mission to make sure that Rhys has as normal a childhood as possible. Rhys is one of the reasons Joey taped a new public service announcement for Hear the World , a global initiative launched by hearing technology company Phonak to raise awareness about hearing issues and early testing. We’re big fans of Hear the World here at Tonic. We spent time with the organization in Peru last summer where we experienced the sounds of the Amazon with hearing-challenged teens. “As a musician, music — and the ability to hear it — is the cornerstone of my life, so when my son was diagnosed with severe hear...

Joey McIntyre " Blaine & Allyson in the Morning " interview Joey McIntyre from New Kids on the Block . http://963wdvd.com

Preview out of new HEAR THE WORLD Magazine No. 18 How did you get involved with the issue of hearing loss? Well, a few months back, probably about six months, my wife and I did a piece in People magazine and decided to tell whoever wanted to listen that we have a son who was born with hearing loss. Just like any regular family, we are simply trying to figure it out and do the right thing for our son. Since then, a lot of great organizations have asked me to talk to them and share my story. I’m certainly not an expert, but I think by talking about it and sharing our experiences it can shed some light on the issue and help some families out there that really don’t know how to deal with it or what to do next. We were certainly in that position, and we were lucky enough to have good friends and good people around us to point us in the right direction and tell us that, you know, there is hope and there are plenty of things that can be done for your son or daughter. How is your ...
