New Kid = Quality, Value, Convenience

Jordan KnightIt used to be that appearing on VH1's "The Surreal Life" was proof that a celebrity's star status had sunk to the lowest of lows.

Well, thanks to former New Kids on the Block singer Jordan Knight that is no longer the case.

Knight, who appeared in a previous season of "Surreal Life", will launch his latest album "Love Songs" not on MTV or VH1, but on QVC!

Jordan is scheduled to perform on the network on September 8 and has packaged his album especially for QVC with a five-song bonus CD of acoustic versions of fan favorites.

Knight says "QVC jumped to mind as the perfect launch pad for this new album to reach a wide variety of fans in a meaningful way." For his sake we hope his fan base consists of legions of faithful middle-aged housewives!

But by his last ditch efforts on QVC, it looks like Jordan's CD isn't the only thing that's sure to be going, going, gone!

oh yeah, QVC great thinking Jordan, you'll have all those stay at home moms quivering. What are you thinking? Other than Esteban, who releases their album on QVC? wait a minute...there's an idea - Jordan & Estaban take N.America by Storm Tour 2007.

I thought he was such an ass on "Surreal Life." It really tells you something when he debuts a CD on QVC. Looks like Donnie Walhberg is gonna be the only former New Kid to have any real success in the entertainment world outside the group.

Hey all you intelligent KNOW IT ALLS!

First of all, the fans of Jordan and the other former members of NKOTB are not all stay at home moms. Most of us are working ADULTS . And there is nothing wrong with being a stay at home mom or dad! Yes, we are stil fans and still support the guys but we also have other thing going on in our lives. Its amazing how completely ignorant and small minded people were about the group and their fans back in the day and its equally amazing that people still are just as completely ignorant and small minded as adults.

Secondly, Jordan is not the first nor will he be the last artist to showcase their CD on QVC. Bon Jovi did the same thing with one of their CD's a few years ago and did very well!

As far as how Jordan was perceived on the Surreal Life, think what you will but I've met the guy and he was pretty cool =)

Lastly, as proud as I am of what Donnie is doing he is not the only one who will have success. Joey McIntyre is doing very well in his own right...movies, Broadway, music, television. Need I say more?

I am looking forwrd to seeing Jordan on QVC and his CD is going to be great! Kudos to Jordan and his people for thinking outside of the box and for working toward reaching a new audience!

y'all are mean.....jordan still has a great voice, I haven't heard his latest stuff, but people shouldn't be critical towards him like that. I'm not saying that's the best way to promote his album, but so what? he's taking a different avenue?
