Ever gotten a twug or hump from Donnie? How about a chirp from Brian? What about a got from Jordan? Or become one of Howie's lovelies? What about the moment you saw yourself on JK’s Stingy shirt background? (If you don’t know what this means, please stop reading and do some fangirl research). We have experienced it, and we can tell you that it is AMAZING. That acknowledgment from one of the guys can make you smile for days and definitely picks you up when you are having a bad day.
Not only that, it is a fun way to keep up to date on what the guys are up to and how they are doing. That picture of Joey and his daughter on Father’s Day was probably the cutest thing ever-agreed? Nobody makes my timeline go crazy like those guys and when a few of them tweet at the same time, it’s over. Admit it ladies, you have it set to get notifications when one of the guys tweets (don’t worry, we all do it).
By the way: Danny, if you want to cook dinner for us sometime, we wouldn’t complain. Nick, we don’t know anything about Duke Nukem but you can be sure that we will play it with you. Oh, and Jon, we have a couple of ladies that speak Italian-so if you need a translator, just let us know.
2) White Outfits
Really, there is only one word to describe these outfits: LOVE
3) The Classic Songs
These are the songs that we fell in love with, the ones that take us back and remind us of why we became fans in the first place. The crowd explodes with excitement when NKOTB starts singing The Right Stuff and when that infamous dance comes-watch out eardrums. Hearing BSB sing Get Down over the summer was amazing for us fangirls, we could hardly (by which I mean not at all) contain ourselves. The guys know that we love these songs and that is why they want us to sing along. What fangirl doesn’t wait for NKOTB to hold out their mics for each Step or for Nick’s infamous "Don't wanna hear you say" so that we can join in.
4) Mashups
There is not a fangirl around that didn’t go to work the day after the AMAs singing "All you people can’t you see, can’t you see, NKOTBSB". There is just something about combining their songs that drives NKOTBSB fans wild. The combination of Hangin Tough and Everybody might just be the best thing ever (*Swoon* at the beginning with Donnie and AJ). And who can forget the joint singing of Step by Step-I am willing to bet that every fangirl's heart skipped a beat during Step 4. Whoever thought of combining Joey and Nick seriously deserves an award.
Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, they made a mashup of Single and The One to open their show with. Just thinking about it makes us fangirls smile. "I’ll be the one…I’ll be your boyfriend"-really guys, what are you trying to do to us?
5) Boyband on Boyband Love
Admit it ladies, one of the best parts of the show was the introductions. Just pure boyband on boyband love and you know we all enjoyed it.
And then there is this:
Who doesn’t want to be in the middle of this circle?
Sometimes there is just no other way to describe how something makes you feel than by having a squee moment. The life of a fangirl is full of these moments and we wouldn’t trade one of them for anything…well maybe some things, but that is a post for another day.
