NKOTB Jonathan Knight is Gay
Perez Hilton is reporting that New Kids On The Block boy-man band star Jonathan Knight is openly gay and very possibly going to make his sexuality public soon.
Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that Jonathan Knight, 39, from the New Kids On The Block is gay and very open about it.
Jordan’s brother might soon be coming out of the closet officially, insiders tell us.
“Jonathan has a [non-famous] boyfriend and they’re very happy,” a source reveals. “They’re not trying to hide it.”
I got in so much trouble in my early teens, when I wrote on the 2×4 of my parent’s house as it was being built, “NKOTB SUCK,” as a jab at my sister’s affection for them. It seems my gaydar was right on and my father owes me an apology, as does my sister.
We are closing in on being able to make an all-time gay boy-band lineup. So far we have Lance Bass and Jonathan Knight. I am sure I am leaving somebody off. Ricky Martin was in Menudo.

Wow…I am in totally shock. I was thinking more like his brother being gay not him! At least Joe isn’t..or else I would die!
[...] Wow, breaking news: NKOTB’s Jonathan Knight is gay - BS [...]

people could be making it up i’ll believe i t hen he says iton he news or anyhing else
i donno
Jack owes no such apology. He was just trying to stop your young criminal mind before it got out of control.
Jonathan Knight is NOT gay. I know that for a fact.
hold on. I have something else to say. IT’S NOT TRUE!!! IT IS ONLY A RUMOR. I’m very sure its a rumor.
I don’t care if he’s gay or not, he’s still hot!!! Isn’t he married with kids anyway? Not that that matters, but…………!
I have known about this since his brother told me in 2005, I just hope he isn’t being forced into coming out and is doing it because he wants too, with how nervous he is on stage, this is the last thing he needs if he is being forced into it.
Oh and the brother to tell me isn’t Jordan BTW before people jump all over Jordan for discussing it, Jordan is a sweet heart that thinks the world of Jon. The other family members of the knight family will do anything to try to act cool, when they know Jon and Jordan are the ones girls go for.
Please…..who didn’t know he was gay since NKOTB began…..you people are blind as a bat!
Until he actually “comes out” it’s a RUMOR…and if he is SO WHAT!
Regardless, I hope he’s happily involved. Life is too short not to be.
Exactly…so what? That could potentially open the fan base even wider!
so what if john is gay this is 2008 it should be not a big deal i am 28 and straight and my best friend is gay cool guy and i am sure john is to the fans will still love him i have been a nkotb fan since 89 and i am a guy they were the first group i ever listen to by the way the new cd is hot if you have not got it yet go get now back to john i wish that he would have sang on some of the new stuff he does have a good voice i liked the song he did off step by step happy birthday rember that one? not even danny sang on the new he allways gets a song nkotb is going going to blow up even more for the rest of 08 and 09 and for longer lets hope later new kids forever later
Jon is not a gay! Once he dated Tiffany. He’s just shy and introvert, but not a gay.
Everyone in the community knows that Jon is gay. He has a boyfriend and they’re such a cute couple.
I met him a couple of times and he’s often out and about in our city.
But don’t waste your time of thinking if someone’s gay it doesn’t matter at all, but Jon is out of the closet although he doesn’t tell the media yet and by the way he hasn’t to do that.
perez hilton need to get a damn life she probably tryed to get with him and he turned her skinny butt down so she think’s he’s gay. can u blame him , if she gain some wait and stop acting like a slut maybe some pitiful guy would want her. maybe.
Are you people that stupid ignorant or both? 1. Jonathan Knight is NOT GAY 2. who cares if it is true and 3 until it’s confirmed either way…LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!
He has panic attacks and having throngs of people constantly surrounding him doesn’t help and who is this Perez Hilton?…Paris Hilton’s sister?
Who cares?
This is a rumor!!!!!!!!!!It´s an absurd!
bumpshack don’t forget Stephen Gately of Boyzone fame
I don’t see Jonathan Knight as being gay. Even if he is it doesn’t matter as long as he is happy. So how do you explain all those years with Tiffany? You also see him with Deborah Gibson in pictures now. Are they a couple???
I WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE NKOTB JON KNIGHT BEING GAY.IS THAT SHIT TRUE OR NOT OR YOU PEOPLE LIEING ABOUT HIM.I HAVE LOVE’D THE NKOTB AND ALSO JON KNIGHT.SO WHY WOULD ANY BODY SAY SUCH THING AND WHY HURT THE PERSON THAT IS COOL.ALSO IF THIS IS ALL TRUE .I LOVE TO HAVE HIS E-MAIL TO ASKING HIM MY SELF
Here is the thing, if he is gay is that really going to change anything……no it is not. Fans will be fans not matter what!. The second thing is he should be true to himself and not worry about what other peple think. He is a good person and that is all that should matter, And that goes if he straight. Really who cares, it should make no difference. Some people are cruel and only care about the all mighty dollar, and it is mostly likly it is those people who are saying these things true or not. It really is none of our business!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Lets leave him alone and be happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well said Helen C.! Either way - he is sweet and HOT!!!!
All of you people are nuts. Most of you can’t even post a comment without sounding like uneducated morons. Work on yourselves (and please god, work on that grammar) before jumping into worrying about what some celebrity you’ll never even meet is doing. The only one he needs to answer to is himself and the only one that needs to be happy about his life is HIM.
Ok, all you guys are posting is garbage , and of course once again rumors he came to the keys a long time and was looking dead at me i was waiting for the bus and i knew i reconzie him but it was to late . and he kept stearing at me to i just wasn’t sure until he was half way donwn the block get it he he he see anyone can post a lie like i jus did i think it was him anyways again if he is yes i would be heart broken but that’s life . I also kind of knew if he is gay or not and like some people say wait until he does come out on tv like he did with is panic attacks and his smoking that i saw on tmz . about a month ago i still can’t believe he smokes after when he came on oprah and complained about panic attacks i have panic attacks and i am on cymbalta i wont if it actually works until a month from now . I also take it for other reason if you go to tmz site you may find jonathan knight smoking and they were making fun of him bad do you know how many jerks through there buds out there cars and over there balcony in the keys . i mean come on people get a life tmz .
Yes i know i just mispelled a couple of words and made a few mistakes on my sentences but at least i realized he he . what i meant by if he is gay or not so what . yes i will be heart broken about it but you guys said the samething when you thought jordan knight would be gay too . just like i said before wait until it is shown on tv and than you can be heart broken about it . but until than stop spreading rumors just to have something to do or say.
I meant to say about cymbalta is i wont know if it works until a month from now so jonthan knight if you do read these comments use cymbalta if you ever heard about it my brother in law is taking them and my mother . again if jonthan knight is gay than so am i he he he he he not .
It doesn’t matter if he is gay, he’s still the same person. You guys don’t even know who Perez Hilton is? He is a gossip columist, and he doesn’t usually say things without checking them out with the celebs first, so if Jon is gay then good for him and I wish him happiness in his life and love and future.
I think everyone should realize the important things in life and not concern themselves with irrelevant conversation. Then, and only then will this world see the light. I met the New Kids On The Block and they were the nicest people. They came at a time when young people in America needed them. They were our positive best friends that made us so happy just by their existance. They told us that Drugs Suck and to stay in school. They raised money for numerous foundations and remained humble throughout all the fame. Their success today is testimony to who they are and what they have meant to so many people. NKOTB Forever!
All I have to say is I love Jonathan Knight
I have loved him since 1987
I saw the New Kids at Nasau Collisuim on Sept 24,2008
I was wearing a Property of Jonathan Kinght Tee Shirt and he saw me and waved at me and he made me the happiest girl at the concert.
Jonathan is the hottiest New Kids ever
Who cares if jon is gay, i have seen them twice in 1991 and going again in january for the third time. jon is my favourate new kid, i have liked him since 1989, so am not going to desert him now not after 20 years, that would be mad, thats if its true as nothing has atually been said. I wish him all the happines in the future.
Why is it that if someone is not seem inthe company of the opposite sex that he or she is gay? Don’t care if he’s gay or not. Could it be that maybe he’s just a cute, quite person that does not put his personal life out there for butt holes to take and run it in the ground? He speaks more now than he did in the pass, so I tell you what get on the NKOTB wagon and enjoy the ride or get off!!!!! JON DO U
again again rumours, but apparenetly his not gay. he went out with tiffany gor just over 2 yrs back in the day and he said if things weren’t as hectic back then he would have married her.he then went out with a girl i think her name is lisa he was with her for 4 yrs and they broke up. but he said he had his heart broken twice and i’d say thats why he’s just cautious getting into a relationship again. he did say that on the road and touring is not a place to meet some1. he said he’d want to be able to spend time with them ,get to know them and not jump from city to city. he did say though that hes not interested in settling down anytime soon but u never know.
:)
and also perez hilton is a guy people.and jon rang the station and asked were he got all this information from that he is saddened and angry that people spread lies about him. do u know were this all came from, he was out having something to eat with a guy( friend) and some girl rang the radio station and said jonathan knight is out having dinner with his bf.
its a sad world if a guy cant go out and have some munchies with his mate for getting accused of been gay,not that it matters.hes still gorgeous.he is just a shy guy and not like the others he likes his private life to be private. anyways thats my thought on all this
He is so not gay. He’s really pissed about people saying this stuff too. Mhm I know.
I’m sorry janet but that is a dumb statement. There are plenty of gay guys that have dated women before they came out. I really don’t care if he is gay because it wouldn’t stop me from a fan of the NKOTB. However, I think people should mind there own business and give him time to come out on his own.
PUT YOUR BETS ON JC CHASEZ for nsync.>Trust me I KNOW THIS…..everyone in his circles, west hollywood and hollywood knows…its open but not to the media or fans. I KNOW FOR A FACT
Why is everyone so concerned about wheather or not Jon Knight is gay? Shouldn’t you be more worried about if he is a good preformer? Your all fans, none of you wil ever be his future love intrest, gay or not. It’s okay to wish the guy happiness, but you all act as if you have some personal stake in his life. He’s a preformer,I’m a fan and think he’s wonderful, but have a life,and know other then pictures and CD’s he’s not a part of my life.And just so you all know the reason why these kinds of rumors are out, is because everyone is paying attention to them. You realy want to do Jon a favor ignore the rumors and give him some personal privacy, just because your a fan dosn’t mean you get to know everything!!
Perez Hilton needs to REALLY. He is just a SAD GAY MAN that needs to say things to make him look good. I know that Jonathan Knight is not gay. I will be seeing NKOTB in November and I can’t wait. Perez, please please get a life.
OMG are you kidding me,,, a long time ago they were all gay,,, just leave them alone,,, roumors are for people who have no life,, relationships what relationships when you are in the media,, try being in his shoes,, people treated Jon and Tiffany mainly tiffany the love of his life like a piece of dirt for dating each other, I bet that they would of been mairried with a house fully of kids by now if people treated them with respect. And for those who say that they know for a fact that he is gay prove it we were not born yesterday, you prob have never meet the guy or any one that he knows. The NKOTB was on the biography channel a few weeks ago and coming from Jons mouth he said that he wanted to marrie her he loved her so MUCH,, now you tell me GAY OR NOT GAY…. and really what does it matter. Just let him be remember he is a PERSON with FEELINGS just like you
I recently just meet nkotb for the first time after being a fan for 20 years. I must say Jon was the nicest out of the bunch he took the time to show he cared and he hugs could warm a . He’s a beautiful man gay or not, he’s one of a kind. I say we just let him lead his life and let him be happy, he has brought happiness to so many!

I agree with you, Shelley–Jonathan is a person and has feelings. I remember when him and Tiffany dated–he was happy while they dated–I missed that Biography channel episode. Just leave them alone, indeed–rumors. I want proof of this as well.
Jonathan Knight is not gay. Like Shelly has said, I bet he would be married to Tiffany to this day. Everyone just needs to leave him alone. I will be seeing NKOTB next month and meeting them as well and I CAN not wait. I have been a fan for over 20yrs. To the girl who said she knows Jonathan is gay because his brother told you…..I’m very sure his brother would not say anything like that to anyone, so please check your sources. To Perez Hilton…..you are just a sad little (fat) gay man that really needs to get a life.
omg i hope he is not gay. i love jon knight. he is sooo hot. i don’t think he is gay tho. always some stupid rumor going around about someone. i won’t believe it until he says it on tv or something. even if he is gay so what. he is still hot and i will still love him no matter what.
there is no way he is gay. he is such a sweetheart people need to stop talking if thay dont know what thay are talking about. and i am so glad thay are back its bin a long time.good luck and god bless
Well, I don’t know if he’s straight, gay, or even bi… I will always love Jonathan Knight!
Honestly people just because Jon has never been married and does not have kids does not make him gay!!!!!! Picture it like this; If you were in Jonathan’s shoes and you had a severe anxiety disorder and left the group to be alone and lived in a secluded place and did nothing for years, except sleep all day and daydream to figure out what you’re going through is overbearing. I’m saying this beause I can understand what he’s going through. I’ve experienced the same thing and trust me it is not easy to put yourself out there and start all over again a year later. My point is that Jon’s probably not ready for a relationship. He might be afraid of committment. I remember watching an interview of the group and the subject was on love life. Jon clearly stated that he will not be getting married and having kids soon. Plus, after watching how he acts has anyone noticed that whenever the group is being followed, say like backstage or just hanging around Jon is never there? I don’t believe its because he hates cameras. I just think it’s because he’s not allowing his full self to be exposed to not just fans, but the group. It’s just my opinion .
I do not want to believe that, but I was watching the video “summertime” and, there is a guy close to him dancing with him, the same guy is with him in other video, I don’t know what to think about it.
Who the hell cares if he is straight or gay. He is still really talented and hot. I agree we should leave him a lone and let him be happy. I am just grateful and honored that he decided to do the reunion tour. I really feel truly blessed to have loved this group as much as I do for as long as I have. They have helped me though a lot so let us leave Jon a lone and let him be happy. I love you NKOTB.
i think that this is so stupid it is really none of our buisness about their personal lives.i am ashamed that i even clicked on this site.
I am ashamed that I checked out this site too. Jon is a caring man. That does not make him gay. My husband is 38 and has no kids and never cared to date due to a broken heart in his early 20’s and he was not gay. My gosh leave him alone.
oh lord! i kno for a fact that he iz not gay!!! how could he do that to us (as fans) anyway. i kno its not true. if he iz it’ll suck!but on the other hand atleast hez happy
wowwwwww I don’t think he is gay and even if he is who the hell cares you obviously have too much time on your hands to be imposing or making judgement on peoples personal lives. you suck NKOTB rule
I find this whole thing wrong! First, if Jon is gay he is not “doing it” to his fans..that is just who he is. I don’t really think it is our right to get to know whether or not he is gay. I am disgusted with the fact that Perez Hilton feels the need to out people whether it is true or not. Not every person is a flamer and wants their personal business know. Coming out is a personal decision and for someone like you to take it upon themselves to out someone, if that is the true case, is WRONG! I can’t imagine the gay community is jumping up and down with pride on your behalf! Those that are should be ashamed that they encourage him, because for many coming out can be very traumatic especially when it was against their will.
I also can’t imagine that the Knight family members would do anything to be “cool”, because I have only heard of Jon and Jordan! If they are wanting to be famous they are keeping it pretty low key. Therefore I don’t think the family is running around saying Jon is gay!
I personally hope whatever Jon’s situation is that he will find true love and happiness. I am an NKOTB fan and have been since the 80’s…I would love the regardless of who they choose to be as long as they are good people. They bring joy to my life through their music and personalities…however, as someone mentioned earlier our lives are seperate. Those of us that are fans need to realize that the reality is just that…we are fans…and will never be anything more. So calm down…if he is gay…he will still be hottie, with the same voice we love, and the same kind spirit…only your fantasies will not come true…which you think about it really…weren’t going to come true anyway.
I think people should leave him alone. Until he says he is gay, then leave him alone! Just because a man doesn’t get married that doesn’t mean anything. It won’t change a thing with his fans. Because we will love him no matter what.
jon is not gay!
he just has anxiety and is very shy! can you blame him, he’s part of the first and biggest boy bands ever! TRUST ME! i went to their concert<3
people always have something to say about people, but jonathan knight is a sweet guy and very sexy at that i think people should leave him alone they all have returned and i am so glad to see all them together again go on jon do what you love best. he is not gay …
