Watch Jordan Knight and Nick Carter's interview with ET
Jordan and Nick recently did a quick interview with Entertainment Tonight while in Los Angeles for their Nick and Knight tour.
Jordan Knight interviewed by the London Free Press
Jordan was recently interviewed by the London Free Press. Check out the interview below.
New Kids on the Block leader Jordan Knight isn't shy about stating his opinion when it comes to the new crop of boy bands out there – including One Direction.
His main issue? They have two left feet.
"They don't dance," the 44-year-old singer laments. "I just don't get it. To put on a really good show there has to be some kind of cool choreography."
When we mention that we've seen 1D in concert (before you cringe, children were present), and that they seemingly substitute their lack of dance prowess with a time-filling couch banter segment in the middle of the show (seriously), chatting about their favourite hobbies and things to eat, he takes it one step further.
“I think these groups are getting hit records first because they are coming off these hot TV shows and then they have to get a stage act together,” Knight retorts. “By then it's kind of too late. Then they just end up on stage just singing their songs and not really knowing the art of putting on a show."
Boy band beefs aside, Knight has paired up with another recognizable face – Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter, for the aptly named side project and album of the same name, Nick & Knight.
Knight, who is currently on tour with Carter in support of their collaborative debut, chatted down the line from Montreal about the trek, being in the studio with a Backstreet Boy, his love for hockey, and a possible NKOTB reunion in 2015 (the band were recently awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame).
How is the tour going so far?
It's going really well. The news is spreading amongst our individual fan bases that it's a fun show... I think some of our individual hardcore fans were a little hesitant with how it would it gel together, and now a lot of them are coming back for multiple shows. Nick and I just have good chemistry on stage. We don't try to outdo each other, we just try to make the show fun and have a good time.
Have you always enjoyed performing in front of Canadian fans?
Canada has always been a great place for the Backstreet Boys and the New Kids on the Block as well as me solo-wise. We get a lot of support here... it definitely feels like our second home.
Is it tougher leaving the family behind these days?
It is tough... I get really homesick. It's really tough for a few days out on the road leading up to the day when you're going to leave home. My kids are both in school so they have to stay home, and of course, my wife has to stay with them. It's a bittersweet experience. The more you're away the more you really miss them and cherish them.
A lot of tracks on the record, including the single One More Time, seem to be a mix of several different styles. Was this a conscious decision?
No. We just wanted to make sure the songs were good... that you could feel the song, regardless of the genre. One More Time it has a pop-rock almost Maroon 5-ish feel. And there's a song called Paper on the album that has a very urban Drake-ish type of feel. You usually don't hear albums with that kind of diversity and that range.
What qualities does Nick Carter bring to the studio?
Nick is great at melodies. He can come up with a catchy melody very quickly and he sings R&B really well...
Are you friends with him outside of the music business?
We're buddies, but we don't hang out. It's hard to even have really good pals in Boston where I live because if I’m not touring, I'm home with my family. Even with the New Kids, we're great friends, but we don't hang out a lot – we just keep it separate.
There's a lyric in the track Deja Vu that says "Fell in love three times like a hat trick." Who's the hockey fan?
That would be me. I'm an assistant coach for my son Dante's hockey team. I grew up playing hockey. My parents are Canadian... my dad played hockey and he took us (with his brother and NKOTB member Jonathan) to the rink early on, when we were five, six years old.
What are your plans for 2015? Is there a NKOTB reunion in the cards?
We will be announcing some new adventures that will be going on in the New Year.

Joey McIntyre's interview with Entertainment Weekly
Joey was recently interviewed by Entertainment Weekly, check out the transcript below:
Joey McIntyre answers Awkward Questions about 'The McCarthys' and New Kids on the Block
New Kids on the Block singer and actor Joey McIntyre, 41, stars as a strong-headed brother in a big Boston brood on the CBS family comedy The McCarthys (Thursdays, 9:30 p.m.). Can he hang tough with a few Awkward Questions?
When I’m spelling the title of the show, is The McCahthys also considered acceptable?
Joe: Absolutely. We gotta make sure the pronunciation is correct right off the get-go and get everyone in lockstep with how it should be pronounced.
Maybe even The Feckin’ McCahthys?
Joe: Innnnnnn certain circumstances, yes. But you know, it is CBS, so we gotta pace ourselves.
You met your wife, who’s a real estate agent, while shopping for a house. Did your pickup line involve the sentence “Girl, I can’t quitclaimdeed you”?
Joe: No, it didn’t. But I didn’t have any furniture. All I had was a beanbag, and she sat in the beanbag, and she watched me put together a table from IKEA. And that’s about the macho-est thing I’ve ever done in my life, and I think that was what hooked her in.
Your New Kids bandmate Donnie Wahlberg is also on a CBS show, Blue Bloods. Pitch me the terrible crossover episode.
Joe: The real bad one? I would say, our sister [on The McCarthys] is pregnant, so Donnie delivers the baby at Fenway Park, because they’re playing the Yankees and his character is a big Yankees fan, and they come to Boston, and they’re getting booed, and everybody’s getting on Donnie like, “Go back to New York! Yankees suck!” He powers through all that and ends up delivering Jackie’s baby safely at the baseball game, and he’s a hero and that’s a happy ending because Sox and Yankees fans come together at the end.
Let me pretend to turn the tape recorder off. Are Wahlburgers any good, really?
They’re really good! They’re delicious. You’re in L.A.—they’ve got kind of an In-N-Out feel but they have their own vibe to it. And their big thing is government cheese and it’s cheesy, kind-of-bad-for-you cheese, which makes the burger really good. And most of them have bars, so it’s a burger joint with a full bar and what’s better than that?
What would a BigMcIntyre taste like?
Joe: It’d be a cheeseburger with baloney instead of bacon. With bread-and-butter chips—like the pickles—and on an onion roll. And we’d do a deal with Fritos—we’d only serve Fritos. We wouldn’t serve french fries.
Why should I say “NKOTB” when the full name of the band is the exact same number of syllables?
Joe: Oh my God, dude, that is—I don’t know, I feel like the skies are opening up right now. [Laughs] That needs to be shouted from the mountaintops, you know? That is an important piece of information that needs to get out in the world.… New Kids. NKOTB. It takes more energy to say NKOTB than New Kids on the Block. I mean, New Kids on the Block runs right off your tongue. NewKidsontheBlockNewKidsontheBlockNewKidsontheBlock.
On a scale of “not at all” to “I wouldn’t say upset, just a little curious as to why not,” how upset were you that the Patrick Duffy comedy Step by Step did not use your No. 1 hit “Step by Step” as its theme song?
Joe: “Ehhh. No big deal.” That’s somewhere in the middle, right?
Did you ever drunk dial 1-900-909-5KIDs, the official New Kids on the Block hotline ($2 for the first minute, 45 cents each additional minute)?
Joe: No, I didn’t have a cell phone when that was out. And I wouldn’t have done that. Yeah, that was definitely a dark hiccup in the life of — that was just wrong. It was a wrong thing to do. But what are you going to do? You live and learn.
You were the last member to join New Kids—and the youngest. What was the worst hazing that you endured? Did they switch out your blazer so it was five sizes too big instead of three? Add sleeves to one of your vests?
Joe: Oh, man. Our day-to-day manager who took care of us would drive us around Boston to different talent shows and stuff, so he had a two-door Mustang and we’d be packed in. I’d be sitting on someone’s lap in the front seat and the other three are stuck behind in two bucket seats. On long trips you don’t know what to do and at one point Donnie tried to rip off my socks as my shoes were still on. And he just ripped my socks off. That’s what teenage boys do when they’re locked in a Mustang and can’t get out.
That doesn’t sound so bad, hazing-wise.
Joe: All kind of stuff. Words hurt, you know what I mean? Kids are mean. I went home crying many a night.
Why? What’d they say?
Joe: Whatever—they’re from Dorchester [Mass.] and I was in from a middle-class home in Jamaica Plain, it was like a world of difference. And I have seven older sisters instead of seven older brothers, so I was very sensitive. And it was fine. Boys will be boys—and I was an emotional one.
You ranked No. 44 in VH1’s 100 Greatest Kid Stars special. Fair?
Joe: New Kids on the Block?
No, just you.
Joe: Wow. When did that come out?
2005.
Joe: I’d like to think I’m a little higher now. 2005 was a quieter time in my career. Maybe they can revamp it?
So where would you put yourself now? Maybe in the 30s?
Joe: Yeah. Listen, I’m never going to be bigger than Joey Lawrence, you know what I mean? After that, it’s all gravy.
How did One Direction respond to New Kids and Backstreet Boys’ pitch for a new boyband supergroup called NKOTBSB1D?
Joe: How did you get a hold of that scoop? That wasn’t supposed to be out yet. I’m really kind of pissed off that you—please don’t write that because they’re still working on it. We think it can work. Just sit on it and we’ll give you the exclusive when it happens. In 15 years.

Donnie Wahlberg and Jenny McCarthy in new reality series
A&E has ordered 10 episodes of a new reality show starring Donnie and Jenny McCarthy that will air next year.
Here's the report with more details from deadline.com
Donnie Wahlberg and Jenny McCarthy will have their marriage documented in a reality series. A&E has given a 10-episode order to Donnie Loves Jenny, an original unscripted docuseries that will follow the newlyweds. It is the first project in an overall development and production deal Wahlberg and McCarthy have signed with A&E for their newly launched joint production company D&J Productions. Production on Donnie Loves Jenny, from 44 Blue Prods. and D&J Prods., begins immediately for a 2015 premiere. The series will consist of a one-hour episode chronicling the couple’s August 31 wedding followed by nine half-hour episodes.
Donnie Loves Jenny is an offshoot of sorts from Wahlberg and his brothers’ breakout A&E realty series Wahlburgers, also from 44 Blue. Wahlberg and McCarthy’s romance played out on the first season of Wahlbergers, which is set behind the scenes of a restaurant owned by Wahlberg and his brothers. “Viewers have enjoyed following Donnie and Jenny’s relationship on Wahlburgers and we look forward to sharing this next part of their journey,” said David McKillop, General Manager and Executive Vice President of A&E.
The series will kick off with behind-the-scenes moments from Wahlberg and McCarthy’s wedding and follow the couple through their nuptials into their first experiences as a married couple as they navigate through life as newlyweds, including blending their families and balancing their busy schedules.
“Our feeling is, who better to make our first show for the network about than about us?,” Wahlberg and McCarthy said. “We love working together and with our crazy schedules this gives us the chance to both work and play together.”
Following her co-hosting stint on The View, where she announced her engagement to Wahlberg, McCarthy recently launched Dirty, Sexy, Funny With Jenny McCarthy, a new daily live morning radio show on SiriusXM. Wahlberg stars on CBS’ Blue Bloods.
Donnie Loves Jenny is executive produced by Wahlberg and McCarthy as well as 44 Blue Productions’s Rasha Drachkovitch.

Hi Mr. McIntyre,
I am actually the photo editor for the the McCarthys and my

appropriate time I can be on reddit at work, haha.
Out of the countless shows i've worked on, i've never smiled
so much while going through the McCarthys Behind the Scenes photos. It looks
like you and Jack McGee have a fantastic time serenading the audience after
each show. What songs are you actually singing, and what is your favorite song
to sing after you wrap an episode?
Hope i get to briefly meet you before you head out.
All the best,

historic sights. Public gardens, Boston Common, etc.

It was pretty easy, I mean, when I read the script, I just
thought it was really funny and really well-written so I wanted to be a part of
it, but certainly the Boston aspect and growing up close to where the writer
grew up, and that certain sarcastic chip on your shoulder sense of humor was
very familiar to me. So I felt like I knew who this character was, and that's a
huge plus going in.

First of all, thank you for kidding when you are asking
those first 2 questions, because 99% of the time, they are not joking.
I really do think it's the best gig in show business, as far
as a multi-cam sitcom, because every episode only takes 5 days to shoot, Monday
/Tuesday /Wednesday the hours are like 9-3, Thursdays are kind of a late day,
and Friday you go in late but you stay late too. And then you have your
weekends. As opposed to being the lead on a drama, like Donnie on Blue Bloods,
and he's working like a dog. A beautiful, big, sexy dog. But a dog.

I can go to my left (which tricks people for a while, so I

player after that. But basketball, it's very easy to get injured - you get an
elbow in the face, you twist an ankle, so I don't play it anymore. I'll shoot
hoops with my son, but I'm not going to go hard on a basketball court.

It's hard not to think of John Ritter, and how amazing he

Loved Michael J. Fox. Ted Danson. Doris Roberts, the way she really is not

Joey

I don't really believe in being embarrassed, I mean, it's...
we all make mistakes, you don't get very far if you don't mistakes or make a
fool out of yourself or get embarrassed. So you have to be willing to kind of
trip and fall to get to where you're going.
That being said, my friend when I was probably about 11, he
was 13, he said that - he was talking about me in front of a group of people,
he was like "I always talk about you, do you always talk about me?"
and I was like "no."
And I don't know if everybody audibly went "awww"
but it sure felt that way.

Hi Joey! What has been your biggest challenge going from

permalink
Joey
McIntyre 1 point 5 days ago
Well, on the stage, I think, you have to open up a little
bit more to fill the space and to hit the back of the room (so to speak) and
working on a multi-cam studio audience TV show is probably the closest to that
on film or television. So that would be the closest transition. But I just
think it's a different focus of energy, but you are still trying to come from
an honest place and "solve a problem," and you want to keep it
authentic regardless of what the medium is.

permalink
Joey
McIntyre 1 point 5 days ago
Yeah, there was definitely no Auto-tuning when we were
coming up. I think it's a tool like any other, that can make a record sound
better. But we've gotten to a point where producers and people in the industry
don't want to hear anything but an auto-tuned voice. Most producers wouldn't
even think of having a note here and there that's natural, or kind of blues-y,
or bends a little bit. Which is a shame.

The McCarthys was originally conceived and shot in the
single camera format before it was retooled. How do you think that serves the show
better?
permalink
Joey
McIntyre 1 point 5 days ago
The multi-cam? I think the multi-cam serves the show SO much
better. Having a live audience to bounce off of , and to react with, is such a
bonus. I think the whole cast are performers at heart, and I think the
multi-cam format lets us shine in a different way.

Filming The McCarthys and performing on stage with NKOTB
have their obvious differences.. what are some similarities? How have those
years of being on stage helped?
permalink
Joey
McIntyre 3 points 5 days ago
It's definitely a rush, doing both. There's something about
doing a tv show for a live audience every friday night, where everybody in the
room feels like this is exactly what they want to be doing, and there's an
excitement and a thrill when the writers come up with new changes, you're
trying new lines on the run, that's really fun. But nothing can really compare
to singing for 15,000 people in a sold-out arena. I'll take both though.

What has it been like translating your singing/songwriting

with Melissa McCarthy and Sandra Bullock in The Heat (it seems like it had to
be a complete blast)?
Thanks for joining us today!
permalink
Joey
McIntyre 3 points 5 days ago
I grew up in musical theater, in community theater, so
singing, acting, performing was always in my blood - although they are 2
different crafts, I've always wanted to do both. But I've focused on acting in
a different way in the last few years, and I just had a clarify about what I
wanted to do, and I think that's one of the reasons why I'm on a show right
now. And acting in The Heat was so much fun. It was as much fun as it looked
like we were having.
And those 2 gals - Melissa and Sandra were so sweet and so
cool, and it was great to watch them work.

to.
