New Kids on the Block has just wrapped up their tour and now
Jonathan Knight is begging other musicians for a job via Twitter. Knight changed his bio to say “Back to just being blue collar! Can I collect an unemployment check from NKOTB? I think I’ve been temporarily laid off!”
Then after that he sent the below Tweets to several musicians.
Dear @backstreetboys I got laid off temporarily! You hiring? Ill even work for minimum wage! as long as its Pop Star minimum wage 😉
Dear @lancebass I got laid of temporarily! I think you all should get back together and take me along! I have boyband on my resume!
Dear Jackson 5, just polishing my black boots and got a great idea! I think I could help that reunion without MJ! I just got laid off!
Dear Cher, I love Los Vegas, and big gay costumes……. I also gave up skiing! Has the Sonny position been filled? I need work! Thanks, Jon
Dear George Michael, You never woke me up before you go go’d! What happened to that Wham job you promised in exchange! Thanks, Jon
Believe it or not he did get some responses from Lance Bass, Joey Fatone and the Backstreet Boys:
LB: Dear @JonathanRKnight, we received your resume today. Thanks for the inquiry- as a matter of fact we have an opening and might have another spot available as we are getting a little tired of @realjoeyfatone.
JF: I read what lance said about me and replacing meThanks lance! I see where I stand trying to get rid of me.I think we should replace you
JK: Wow! I think I have something lined up! Thanks @Lancebass
BSB: Dear @JonathanRKnight thanks for your interest in @backstreetboys, could you please send over a resume, 3 references and a head shot?
JK: @backstreetboys Wasn’t RCMH resume enough? Wow you all run a tight camp over there! I think I may have gotten the job with NSYNC, LOL
JK: @backstreetboys Wait what was I thinking! NSYNC isnt coming back unless Justin goes bankrupt! Your on tour now…… package in the mail!
It will be interesting to see who he is going to see who he will be a New Kid on the Block for or if anyone really wants that Old Kid on the Block.
Personally I think he should contact the ladies in that picture and ask Tiffany and Debbie Gibson if he can get a part in their SyFy movie Mega Python vs. Gatoroid.
