Perez Hilton: Chatting With…Joey McIntyre (Part 2) (VIDEO)

  

Now, in Part 2 of our EXCLUSIVE interview, Joey Mac shares some very exciting news… The New Kids On The Block are recording an ALL NEW album!!
So. Effing. Excited.
..
Perez: So after the [Mix Tape] Festival are the boys taking a break? Is NKOTB going on a cruise?
Joey McIntyre: That’s in May. You’ve got to check that out man. It’s not even – you’ve seen some of the buzz.
Perez: Do you spend the whole time on the cruise?
Joey McIntyre: Yes. It’s one big family! It’s hard to explain, but there is so much joy on the boat. People say ‘What do you hide? How do you get around?’ No, it’s like these fans have, you know, been with us for so long that it’s like [they’re our] family. And I’m at the point where yeah, if I need five minutes I’m going to take it. You know what I mean? But we give 150 percent because these are the greatest fans in the world, and it’s a blast. It’s a four day cruise and it’s nuts. I know [what it sounds like].
Perez: NO! I think it’s cool!
Joey McIntyre: At first we would joke about it. But that first time we got on the lido deck it was like Spring Break. It was just crazy, and it was ON for four days. You have to come one of these days. We’ll helicopter you in.
Perez: These females [on the cruise] are a little bit older. They still like to get wild?
Joey McIntyre: DUDE! First of all, they look great. They get ready for this cruise!
Perez: I’m not saying that they don’t look great! [I’m saying] they’re probably in their forties….
Joey McIntyre: Not all of them. Not all of them.
Perez: Late thirties…
Joey McIntyre: Yeah, but they have so much fun. It’s a getaway. It’s defiantly NOT a girls night out, it’s a girls weekend out. Where they just want to have a great time. We pull out all the stops, surprises, we have theme nights and singing.
Perez: You perform every night?
Joey McIntyre: Not every night. There is a group concert, but then I do a solo show, Jordan [Knight] does a solo show, Donnie [Wahlberg] does a special… you have to be there to really believe it show.
Perez: Like a Magic Mike type show??
Joey McIntyre: Close! Magic Mike plus Tom CruiseMagnolia, equals Donnies’ show on the cruise.
Perez: (impersonating Tom Cruise) Respect the cock!
Joey McIntyre: But very loving, and very nurturing and very sweet at the same time. I don’t know how he does it.
Perez: And you’ll do that again next year, most likely?
Joey McIntyre: Most likely, yes.
Perez: Is there a plan? Like, [do you say] ‘Okay, we have been reunited for a long time.’ Since 2008 was it?
Joey McIntyre: Yeah.
Perez: [You ask yourselves] Do we want to do it five years and then take a few years off? Is there a plan?
Joey McIntyre: Well, the plan is to have fun, number one. Cause if we don’t have fun, it’s gonna show up [on stage] and we want to make it fresh and exciting. In 2008, 2009 we came back on our own. We did some cool things in between that, and then [going on tour with] The Backsteet Boys is a whole other thing — it was great. Hopefully we can keep it fresh. We’re starting to actually make some more music because we’re happy with the record we made in 2008, so we’re getting back to the studio.
Perez: I have an idea for you guys.
Joey McIntyre: Yes
Perez: You should do like, a Sexy Jams album. Like, sex songs.
Joey McIntyre: Like, (singing) “Let me lick you up and down?”
Perez: YES!! Those fans would eat that up!
Joey McIntyre: You’re kind of… (gestures mind waves) you’re feeling it. You’re picking up on something.
Perez: It could be covers — and some original songs – but I just want… Pony, that Ginuwine song Pony! (Singing) “Ride it, my pony!”
Joey McIntyre: Exactly. Okay. If you see that you can claim the idea, but I just want to tell you that you’re just picking up the vibes.
Perez: Well that’s very exciting. You heard that here first. And if you’re the [Mix Tape] Festival get wasted and show your titties!
Joey McIntyre: (Laughing) You don’t have to do that!

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...
