1 1/2" ~These are really neat, NKOTB was considered the first official modern boy band. The official NKOTB hotline, 1-900-909-5KIDs, received approximately 100,000 calls per week. Imagine the amount of money this brought in. What was it like $2.99 a minute back then? In 1991, the group was #1 on Forbes' list of highest-paid entertainers, ahead of Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, and all the other stars of the day.
This is a band that isn't done yet. On March 3, 2022, NKOTB released the music video "Bring Back the Time", which features Salt-N-Pepa, Rick Astley, and En Vogue. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulJBJYie0l8
Neat random fact Jennifer Lopez was once a backup dancer for the group before she came to fame.
