In Defense of Kids

I don’t know who you think you are but you have no right to put down the New Kids on the Block. It took me quite a while until I could write this letter. I had to calm myself down before writing this letter. I bet those 19,000 fans--and I stress 19,000 fans--are more intelligent than you. You’re probably an old geezer because you don’t know true talent when you see it.

I’m sure you hurt a lot of people by writing this article, but then again, I guess you don’t care. I will stand by the New Kids on the Block through anything. Even though I’m not the closest person to them, I care for them so much and love them with all my heart. In 5 years I’m sure NKOTB will still be my No. 1 choice. I’ll always scream for them.
