Like all girls, I did have a favorite. Mine was Donnie. Mainly because he seemed rebellious and no one else really had a thing for him in my 5th grade classroom. I didn't have to know too much about him during the intense debates that come with elementary lunchrooms and boy bands.
You get me talking about The Bangles, The Go-Gos or early Michael Jackson and that's another story.
N was trying to convince me that Mark Wahlberg was a member of NKOTB. N can bust out all their moves and even recite the songs. He claims it is because of having two sisters, but I'll let you make your own judgment on that one. He felt he was an expert on the band members of the group.
You don't mess with a girl from that era who listened to her friends debate the cuteness of Joey vs Jordan. Let alone which one was going to sweep their 11 year old self right off her feet.
We bet a coffee. As you can guess, I won that one. My secret, not-so-real crush was on the only Wahlberg in NKOTB.
While drinking said coffee, I heard their first single off The Block album. I have to say, while I wasn't a child fan, I'm a HUGE fan of the adult NKOTB.
I'm off to get my hot pink scrunchy, crimper and Pocket Rocker.

Girl, I LOVED NKOTB. I was also totally hooked on their Saturday morning cartoon.
