Does this picture bring back bad memories of shredded jeans, black hats and bad Boston accents? Yes — well, brace yourselves — NKOTB are reuniting and making their first appearance on the Today Show this Friday.
To take a page from Weekend Update… Really Donnie? Aren’t you a legitimate actor now? I really liked Boomtown. A live performance?? Really? Reuniting with your less famous friends? Really?!?!?!??

In honor of the due date of two of IAYM’s dearest friends, I thought it would be appropriate to put together a baby-themed post. So, here’s a look at some of my fave latest baby-friendly things…

A few of us IAYMers were Buffy fans. Some of us have even been to the Buffy singalong. So, it’s lovely to see the cast reunited in pics from the PaleyFest in LA.

Check out BuzzSugar for the full scoop, including which show terrified Joss Whedon more — the musical or “Hush”, and who talks in real life just like their character. Does anyone care about these things anymore??
not that there’s anything wrong with being gay….seriously though, i had no idea!
R.E.M. have a new album coming out. The boys old men grace the cover of the new issue of Spin magazine, and frontman Michael Stipe spends some time talking about his own coming out.
On His Sexuality:
“It was super complicated for me in the ’80s. I was totally open with the band and my family and my friends and certainly the people I was sleeping with. I thought it was pretty obvious.”
Going public was a little easier when he realized it might inspire people to change their views about homosexuality:
“I didn’t always see that. But I see now, of course that’s the case, of course that’s needed. I’d just never felt strongly enough about a particular relationship to say, ‘Yeah, he’s my boyfriend, that is what it is.’ Now I recognize that to have public figures be very open about their sexuality helps some kid somewhere out there.”
On his songwriting:
“There are songs I wrote in the past that were gender-specific. ‘7 Chinese Brothers’ was about me breaking up a couple—and then dating both of them, a man and a woman, which is a terrible thing to do, but I was young and stupid….At the time I was writing about what I knew, and what I knew was myself. I found out I’m not that kind of writer. I think I’m better when I write about things that are not me.”

It’s been a little while since our last Tom Brady post… understandably so. He finally climbed out from under the weight of New Englanders’ (including mine) disappointment in him, and made an appearance last night in NYC with Gisele for the opening of the new Ermenegildo Zegna store. Is it weird that Eli was at the party too?? You’d think the EZ PR peeps would have invited one or the other to the party, no? Do you think they spoke to each other??? Here’s how I see that conversation having gone…
ELI: Uh, hi Tom. Thanks for playing like crap in the SuperBowl and giving me back my dignity, saving my coach, handing us the win and allowing me to take home the MVP award.
TOM: [turns and makes out with Gisele]
this is an excerpt from the sports guy’s column today - ”Sports’ two most intriguing words: What if?” - the entire column is funny and intriguing, if you are an nba fan, and it really has me thinking….what if your mom wasn’t a sad, pathetic knick fan? i think the world would be a better place.
What if the Knicks had never hired Isiah Thomas?
This could have been its own bizarro “Where Amazing Happens” commercial called “Where Isiah Happens.”
(Cue up the annoying piano music that haunts me every time I try to fall asleep after hearing it for five straight months.)
(Picture of the ‘05 Suns celebrating after a playoff win.)
Where Phoenix dumps the Stephon Marbury and Penny Hardaway contracts on someone and remakes its team into a contender happens.
(Picture of the ‘07 Bulls celebrating after a playoff win.)
Where Chicago dumps Eddy Curry for two lottery picks and copious amounts of cap space happens.
(Picture of the ‘07 Raptors celebrating after a playoff win.)
Where Toronto finds some dummy to take Jalen Rose’s contract and aid its rebuilding process happens.
(Picture of San Antonio’s 2005 trophy celebration.)
Where San Antonio dumps Malik Rose’s contract for a center who helps them win the title happens.
(Picture of the ‘08 Blazers celebrating after a last-second win.)
Where the 2008 Blazers become the most likable young team in the league because they found a taker for Zach Randolph happens.
(Picture of a white SUV.)
Where a Truck Party happens.
(Picture of Anucha Browne Sanders celebrating on the courthouse steps.)
Where a humiliating $11 million sexual harassment settlement happens.
(Picture of Curry and Randolph looking overweight.)
Where an NBA frontcourt that includes two C-cups happens.
(Picture of a mostly empty Madison Square Garden.)
Where a 60-year tradition of professional basketball goes down the tubes happens.
(Picture of Isiah sitting on the bench with that frozen, blank look on his face like he’s either flatlining or planning to kill everyone on the locker room after the game.)
Where Isiah Happens.
(Follow-up note: Has a GM ever directly altered the fortunes of SIX franchises before? Portland, San Antonio, Phoenix, Toronto, Chicago and New York. That’s 20 percent of the league. See if you can top that resume, Chris Wallace!)

I think I’m a little late to the game on this one… it was covered by DailyCandy before I left on vacay. But, the new blog, “Stuff White People Like,” covered my dearly departed fave show, “The Wire,” this week. Their full list includes topics such as art degrees, Sarah Silverman, kitchen gadgets, Manhattan (whoop!), expensive sandwiches and another 80-some-odd topics.
Man.
