Hanson Bro Fires the One Finger Salute

So what's weirder? A Hanson Brother with facial hair -- or the fact that one of the "MMMbop" kids just flipped the bird!
Hanson: Click to watch
23-year-old Zac (goatee) and 25-year-old Taylor (finger) joined the other one for a show in Falls Church, Virginia yesterday -- where it seemed at least one of the guys is finally over that damn song you couldn't get out of your head 11 years ago. Sure was catchy though...

17. You guys are ridiculous if you think they have been "gone". Thats why he looked at the camera guy like he was an idiot... cause he is. They are constantly touring and selling out shows. They own their own record label. They do The Walk which is a great organization along with Tom's Shoes to help children who have no shoes, get them. They are awesome people who do great things for the community. They broke out of the "MmmBop mold" that their previous label made them fall into. They didn't want to conform to that because thats not who they are. If you listen to thier music now you would see that. Go ahead though... be as jealous of them as you want by saying your negative comments :)

18. Dear TMZ Your universe is soon going to collapse, shrivel to cinder and spin off into the abyss. Your program seems to be treading a bit. I've lost interest totally.

19. First of all, Hanson never left, so asking how does it feel to be back is so ludicrous. Second of all, people like you (who asked Zac those stupid uneducated questions) are the ones who can't "get over that damn song." Hanson have made many albums since then and have evolved and moved on. So next time get your facts straight before you make a fool out of yourself. Kudos to Zac for making fun of you and pretty much saying go away.

20. Gross! It has nothing to do with jealousy. These "kids" have been out of the limelight for years now, so it is a pretty reasonable question to ask them what they've been up to. It's called publicity and they're not even putting any efforts into whatever organization they want to help. If Zack weren't more of a douchebag, then maybe people would have a vested interested in this takethewalk.net deal. It's so apparent that his childlike persona has stuck on him through now.

Show some respect and don't pretend you're so Diva when you're not as big as you used to be. Sold out concerts? Maybe in your Rodeo.

Thank you!

22. Props to Taylor & Zac- Hanson is one of the most talented bands around a lot of people need to just grow up and get over the whole MMMbop thing.

23. I also can't wait until the Jonas brothers are out the door. I think there should be one of those countdown clocks out there so we all know just how much longer those nerds will still be around.

Oh, and Hanson is lucky a pap recognized any one of them.

24. The only thing sadder than Hanson are the fans of Hanson (or whatever name they are going by these days).

25. Sad how stupid most of the comments to this post are. It seems that most people here believe that if you're not a top star, you should not try to do anything to help the world, and you have to put up with any abuse that half-witted photographers on the street decide to dish out. Very sad.

27. Okay first let me start off by saying that you guys really need to educate your photographers/videographers on what they are reporting on. For one, Hanson never left. After a departure from their major label they opted to go the route of owning their own record label, which I for one am all for... no one telling you what to do creatively and it has been the biggest blessing for them. Secondly, MMMBop was 11 years ago... get over it. Seriously. They were kids then. They are adults now. They have had other songs on the charts and have never stopped recording or touring. The music they create now is something to be envied by most musicians in America. This overprocessed crap that;s called music on the radio is a snoozefest and takes absolutely no talent to make anymore. Thirdly, the whole reason behind the walk is to raise money that Hanson is taking out of their pockets to go towards 5 key causes to battle poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa. For every mile walked by them and their fans they are donating 1 dollar of THEIR money. What are you doing? Lastly, take some time out. Listen to their most recent album The Walk. I doubt you have that much maturity and talent in your pinky finger. Seriously, grow up and when you can report with maturity and education, then maybe you'll finally get it.

28. In the pic posted, Zac kindda resembles young Charles Manson and should be posted in the "Were are just saying" section.

29. Why do celebs constantly flip off the paparazzi? What are we...12 years old??????? You choose to be a celebrity then deal with all the crap that goes along with it -- it's worth it once you get your whoppin pay check isn't you aholes??????

30. How old are their fans? I was an adult when MmmBop came out and I never got into them, so I don't even know what age range I would be insulting by knocking these tools.
