NKOTB Member Jonathan Knight Outed By Former Teen Queen
One 80s teen icon lets it slip that she dated a former heartthrob that's now gay. What's the deal?

We all let things slip from time to time. But it looks like 80s singer Tiffany let one pretty major detail slip from her lips that New Kids On The Block fans missed out on: outing teen sensation and NKOTB member Jonathan Knight as gay. (He's also the older brother and former band mate of the still crushworthy Jordan Knight.)

According to Popeater, Tiffany appeared on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live with teen queen Debbie Gibson to talk about their roles in an upcoming movie. And, when asked by host Andy Cohen if she'd gotten close with any of the members of NKOTB, she said Jonathan Knight.

And that's when she dropped the bomb.

"He's fabulous. But he became gay later," she said

1. became gay later?

Uhh, yeah and maybe she's the one who "turned him gay."

Kind of sad to think 40 years of living and the poor thing hasn't got a brain in her little head.

2. I was just about to write the same thing. nt

5. actually that was discussed in the clip

and she made it clear that looking back she should have known he was gay. Incedently became gay later isn't a totally ridiculous construct if by that you mean, acknowledged being gay later which apparently Mr. Knight had in his private life.

3. It would have been fun

If this info had come out in high school just to see how the NKOTB-obsessed girls I went to high school with would have reacted.
