Does this picture bring back bad memories of shredded jeans, black hats and bad Boston accents? Yes — well, brace yourselves — NKOTB are reuniting and making their first appearance on the Today Show this Friday.
To take a page from Weekend Update… Really Donnie? Aren’t you a legitimate actor now? I really liked Boomtown. A live performance?? Really? Reuniting with your less famous friends? Really?!?!?!??

In honor of the due date of two of IAYM’s dearest friends, I thought it would be appropriate to put together a baby-themed post. So, here’s a look at some of my fave latest baby-friendly things…

A few of us IAYMers were Buffy fans. Some of us have even been to the Buffy singalong. So, it’s lovely to see the cast reunited in pics from the PaleyFest in LA.

Check out BuzzSugar for the full scoop, including which show terrified Joss Whedon more — the musical or “Hush”, and who talks in real life just like their character. Does anyone care about these things anymore??
not that there’s anything wrong with being gay….seriously though, i had no idea!
R.E.M. have a new album coming out. The boys old men grace the cover of the new issue of Spin magazine, and frontman Michael Stipe spends some time talking about his own coming out.
On His Sexuality:
“It was super complicated for me in the ’80s. I was totally open with the band and my family and my friends and certainly the people I was sleeping with. I thought it was pretty obvious.”
Going public was a little easier when he realized it might inspire people to change their views about homosexuality:
“I didn’t always see that. But I see now, of course that’s the case, of course that’s needed. I’d just never felt strongly enough about a particular relationship to say, ‘Yeah, he’s my boyfriend, that is what it is.’ Now I recognize that to have public figures be very open about their sexuality helps some kid somewhere out there.”
On his songwriting:
“There are songs I wrote in the past that were gender-specific. ‘7 Chinese Brothers’ was about me breaking up a couple—and then dating both of them, a man and a woman, which is a terrible thing to do, but I was young and stupid….At the time I was writing about what I knew, and what I knew was myself. I found out I’m not that kind of writer. I think I’m better when I write about things that are not me.”

It’s been a little while since our last Tom Brady post… understandably so. He finally climbed out from under the weight of New Englanders’ (including mine) disappointment in him, and made an appearance last night in NYC with Gisele for the opening of the new Ermenegildo Zegna store. Is it weird that Eli was at the party too?? You’d think the EZ PR peeps would have invited one or the other to the party, no? Do you think they spoke to each other??? Here’s how I see that conversation having gone…
ELI: Uh, hi Tom. Thanks for playing like crap in the SuperBowl and giving me back my dignity, saving my coach, handing us the win and allowing me to take home the MVP award.
TOM: [turns and makes out with Gisele]
I think I’m a little late to the game on this one… it was covered by DailyCandy before I left on vacay. But, the new blog, “Stuff White People Like,” covered my dearly departed fave show, “The Wire,” this week. Their full list includes topics such as art degrees, Sarah Silverman, kitchen gadgets, Manhattan (whoop!), expensive sandwiches and another 80-some-odd topics.
Man.
i am! the news below doesn’t really excite me…what really excites me is the fact that they have, at the very least, 14 new episodes in the works!!
It’s True! Britney Spears Will Guest Star on How I Met Your Mother
This just in: A representative for show runners Carter Bays and Craig Thomas says “it’s true” that Britney Spears will appear as a guest star on CBS’ fan-favorite comedy series How I Met Your Mother this season.
The show’s Fox rep also just confirmed the casting.
So, yes, it is happening. Britney will be on HIMYM.
As for details on her role, the reps would not comment, but we are hearing Britney is set to appear in the 14th episode of the season. And insiders tell us exclusively that the most likely role for Britney in that episode is “Abby,” a girl who works in Ted’s doctor’s office. She’s described as “sweet and friendly and scattered and a little nerdy—a female Michael Cera.”
This would mean that most of Brit’s scenes would be with the show’s lead character, Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor). In the episode, Ted has a crush on another girl named Stella who works in the doctor’s office, and he sports a different look to impress her every time he comes in for a visit.
So, is this the best news ever or worst news ever for fans of How I Met Your Mother? Vote and comment below.
You gotta admit, if nothing else, this casting will do precisely what we fans have been hoping for for years: Bringing more mainstream attention to a truly deserving show.
