"Oooh, I don't know! That's tricky! I'm really good friends with the Wanted, so I feel like ... 'Glad You Came' was a really awesome," Jepsen said. "I heard that the New Kids on the Block are here, and I'm a huge fan, so anything of theirs."
And Jepsen isn't the only one who wants NKOTB on their mixtape: "Jersey Shore" star Pauly D had no shame in admitting that he still a big fan. "Got to be 'Hangin' Tough' by the New Kids on the Block," Pauly D said. "I love that song."
So what about the guys from NKOTB? Well, they were all about LL Cool J.
" 'Mama Said Knock You Out'!" Donnie Wahlberg said. "LL Cool J, our fans, he's not going to believe how much New Kids fans love him. It's going to be amazing."
And while LL Cool J has equal respect for the guys from New Kids, he wasn't ready to pick one song to add to his mixtape. "I don't know if that's fair, because I'm so hip-hop," LL Cool J said. "98 Degrees, Backstreet, I don't know. I have to give that one some thought, I gotta be real with you."

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...
