Me, Myself, and I
In the early 1980s, Maurice Starr discovered R&B/Pop quintet New Edition, and guided their early success. After breaking ties with them, Starr and his business partner, Mary Alford, sought to create a white counterpart act. Auditions were held around Boston, at which some 500 teen-aged boys auditioned. Among them was 15-year-old Donnie Wahlberg, who immediately impressed Starr and Alford, and would become the first member.

Wahlberg assisted in helping to recruit other members. Among them were his younger brother Mark and his best friend Danny Wood. Wahlberg later coaxed former classmates Jonathan Knight and Jordan Knight, both of whom had exceptional singing voices, into joining. As the group began to take shape, Mark Wahlberg became disillusioned with its direction and opted to quit. Another of Donnie's neighborhood friends, Jaime Kelley, took his place. Kelley, though, would eventually be dismissed for lack of concentration and discipline. Starr replaced him with 12-year-old Joey McIntyre, whom the other guys initially resented for being the one to replace their friend. With the final line-up in place, Starr rehearsed the boys diligently and scored the group (which was being called Nynuk) a record deal at Columbia Records. The label, however, demanded Starr change the name of the group. Subsequently they settled on New Kids on the Block, after a rap song that Donnie Wahlberg had written for the album.

  • thank you from danny - from NKOTB website

    Hi everyone,
    I want to tell you how touched and grateful I am for the outpouring of support you have given me, the Betty Wood Foundation and Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Thousands of you purchased the NKOTB pink ribbon tank tops, t-shirts, and I’ve heard that you’re hosting fundraising events and organizing walk teams all over the world. I just want to say thank you to EVERYONE who is volunteering their time to help end breast cancer forever. I appreciate everything you’re doing, and the people at Susan G. Komen for the Cure really appreciate it as well. Every dime we raise from this effort will go directly to Komen, and we’re setting up a link right now that will allow you to make your donations directly to Komen through my site, in memory of my mother. We’ll post the link on rememberbetty.org, on Facebook and on Komen’s site as soon as it’s ready.

    I also want to remind you to do your breast self-exams, get a mammogram when it’s time and to just take care of yourselves. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, but 98% of those women will beat it if they are diagnosed early. I promise you that I will keep fighting to help create a world without breast cancer, a world where my fans can be proud of the great things we are accomplishing together and most importantly, a world where my daughters will grow up without fear of losing their lives to this awful disease. LET’S FIND A CURE TOGETHER!

    Love Always
    Danny
