So I'm caroosing through Craigslist the other day, and I see "Were you the New Kids biggest fan? We want to hear from you!" having no idea who the post was by, I write them and say "I was their number on fan. I went to the airport one morning with my family, and Jordan and Donnie were in the gift shop.

I pulled my soaking wet t-shirt that I wore to the rained out concert the night before and put it on. When Jordan gave me the 'hello' squeeze, he said "you're all wet" in an EW voice. In my mind, as their number one fan, it wasn't by chance that we were at the airport at the same time - it was destiny, orchestrated by the Gods for me, their #1 fan."

Katie can back me up on this, and will tell you about the time we stayed at the Don Ceasar in St.Petersberg, Florida, where they were doing some concerts in nearby Tampa, and I was convinced they were staying at the same hotel. She would accompany me to the PH Suite so that I could slip notes of love under the door. The newlywed couple that were probably actually staying in that room must have ... burned them in the campfire? Framed them in their wallets? I don't know, what do you think they did with them?


I get this call on Monday, from a Woman who says "Hi, I'm calling from the Rachel Ray show, and I just want to ask you some information about your NKOTB experience, you said you were their 'number 1 fan'?" and she proceeds to interview me for an enthralling 20 minutes (honestly, I could be questioned about any topic and have interesting answers and hold a captive audience. Some lady stopped me on the street with a photographer asking if they could take pictures and interview me about my hair. Lizzy was laughing because of my in depth answers. I love being interviewed!)

So back to the NKids. Long story short, I am going to be on the Rachel Ray show on September 4th. They are gathering together some of the old fans (do you think 'they'll' be there??) They asked me to gather up all my old memorabilia - ooh that part will be hard, it's buried under a tree in Canada? I burned it in the campfire? So they got my shirt and pant size (why would they need my pant size?) and they are going to set me up with NKOTB gear.

Last night we were out with Venezuela, and Lizzies hubby shows up. She's like "Tell Scott your story!...or, not now?" uh, or not now. Now is NOT the time. I mean, later, later, I'll tell him later.

"How did you react when you found out they were getting together for a reunion tour?" To be honest, when I was 13/14, I was crazy about them..they were like my first love.. I will never feel the way I did then..Now that I'm older, I am more balanced about those kinds of things - I was just happy to see that they are all healthy, happy and looking good. I wish them the best, like I would any family member or loved one.

"Ok, we'll let you know about possibly having you on the show" CLICK. Uh oh. My answer was too calm! I was surprised when they gave me the "come on the show" call. I sang 'Please Don't Go Girl' in piglatin for them that time. And YALL KNOW I'm gonna somehow end up with the Mic on that show - interviewing THEM and busting some Sarah Tone In Raps STRAIGHT UP NO DOUBT!
