Addressing some things I hear everywhere.

I have found that I am discussing the reunion tour with anyone and everyone. Whether they are fans or not. LOL. I get alot of eye rolls and alot of comments.

Alot of the comments I get from people are regarding things written on the daily gossip blogs, or about things that have been mentioned in the past on TV programs about the guys personal lives.

I want to address that.

Personal lives are just that...PERSONAL. Just because WE "know" the guys, does not mean that they "know" us. We are not PERSONAL friends. We are not related. We are fans. When they speak of anything in their lives they are offering a piece of them to all of us, they are not welcoming us into their circle of friends.

We, as fans, do not have the RIGHT to know. We have the RIGHT to accept them for what we know about them. We have the RIGHT to buy their music, movies, merchandise. We have the RIGHT to defend them to haters.

People have to realize, they are performing for their love of doing it, for us, for them. They have a right to date whomever they want, eat whatever they want, name their children whatever they want, and share with us whatever they CHOOSE. How would you like to live in the public life (this goes for all celebs not just NKOTB) and have EVERYTHING you do either criticized or taken for gospel? They are human like us. They like alone time, like us. They keep secrets, like us.

Lets take a second and drop all the rumors and be for them what we are. Fans, Supporters. Lets soak this in and have fun :)
