Tiffany and Debbie Gibson to tour together, will you buy tickets?

wenn3179999

Well, this sounds like a legwarmer-wearing trainwreck in the making. Hot on the heels of successful revival tours like those of Van Halen and The Police, former 1980s teen songstresses Tiffany and Debbie Gibson are reportedly planning a joint tour, presumably to reel in the same pathetic souls who once showed up to watch Tiffany sing at the mall. In one respect, it seems rather inevitable that these two would end up chained together on tour while inadvertently synchronizing their respective menstrual cycles. On the other hand, Gibson must secretly hate this whole mess because, while she used to write her own music, Tiffany covered most of her own hits from other artists. Regardless, here they are together again:

Tiffany is putting together tour dates with fellow 1980s icon Debbie Gibson. The pair, who starred together in the Syfy movie Mega Python vs. Gatoroid, plan to cover songs that inspired them as well as peform their own material. “We want to journey through the ’80s and all the artists who influenced us,” Tiffany told us, adding that she and Gibson might do covers of hits by Stevie Nicks, Reba McIntyre and Guns N’ Roses, as well as Broadway tunes. They’d also perform their own material. Tiff’s on tour supporting her new release, “Rose Tattoo.”

Do you realize what this means? Providing that these two ladies can actually sell a significant amount of venues, we’ll soon have footage of Tiffany screeching her own version of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” that could actually rival Fergie’s nightmare-inducing Superbowl performance. Speaking of genuine awfulness, here’s the “catfight” clip from Tiffany and Debbie’s recent SyFy network movie, Mega Python vs. Gatoroid. If you stick around to the 2:00 minute mark, the fur begins to fly between Tiff and Deb, with the latter saying this actual dialogue: “Oh bitch, please. You’re going down … you’re going to get it, you gator-baiting bitch!”

While these two aren’t exactly national treasures, they are mildly entertaining for about five seconds. Man, I can’t wait for the roadside tour reports to hit the internet.

NKOTB’s Jonathan Knight was fine with being outed by Tiffany

wenn1869867

Yesterday, we heard about ’80s mall girl Tiffany outing her ex-boyfriend, New Kids on the Block’s Jonathan Knight. They dated, back in the ‘80s, before Jonathan knew he was gay, I guess. Anyway, Tiffany’s drunk ass announced that Jonathan was gay while she was on live television, so there were no takesies-backsies. Anyway, when I wrote up the story, a lot of you bitches yelled at me, claiming that Jonathan was already out of the closet, so there was no “outing”. Some of you saved your anger for Tiffany, because she was a drunk bitch who outed an ex (as many of us do, let’s be honest). Well, Tiffany and Jonathan are here to soothe everyone. First of all, it looks like Jonathan was not already “out” – in the sense that he had stated it before God and NKOTB fans. Also, Jonathan isn’t mad at Tiff. He actually sounds like a nice guy:

Pop singer Tiffany had to defend herself on Twitter after she outed New Kids on the Block member Jonathan Knight during an appearance Thursday on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live.” When host Andy Cohen asked the singer if she had ever dated one of the NKOTB members, Tiffany admitted she had a romance with Knight.

“The quiet one. The shy one,” she said. “He became gay later. I didn’t do it! But he’s fabulous.”

Cohen then asked if Tiffany “turned him.”

“No. See, I had issues with that. I was thinking maybe I did but no,” she revealed. “Now looking back when we were dating, he was so much fun. We used to do facials together. He was so easy to talk to … And he was fabulous. He’s an awesome person.”

Tiffany, 39, promptly faced accusations that she revealed Knight’s true sexuality, which he himself had never confirmed or denied.

“Really didn’t know that was the wrong thing to say,” she tweeted Friday in response. “Never meant to hurt Jon.”

Knight, 42, seemed to be taking it in stride.

“I’m so devastated ………….” he tweeted Friday, “How can I not remember getting facials???????”

He even had a message for Tiffany herself.

“Tiff, please don’t lose any sleep over it!” he wrote to her. “I know you weren’t being mean and I found it to be funny!”

“Knock em dead tomorrow!” he continued. “Wishing nothing but the best for you always!”

[From The NY Daily News]

Jonathan’s classiness has made me a fan – so much so that I need to admit something: back in the day, when I was a kid, Jonathan was my favorite. Those were the days before gaydar. But looking back, it certainly makes sense. I always love the gay ones. As far as Jonathan coming out and all – considering his classy reaction, I think he probably was out to his friends and family, but he’s just never given some big interview about his sexuality. Which is fine – whatever, you know?

Also: NKOTB Super Fans – be cool.

NKOTB’s Jonathan Knight outed on live television by his ex-girlfriend Tiffany

wenn5496233

This is the most bizarre story of the day. Apparently, ‘80s mall-girl/singing-sensation Tiffany was invited on Bravo’s Watch What Happens: Live with Andy Cohen, and during the course of the alcohol-soaked interview, Tiffany outed her ex-boyfriend, New Kids on the Block’s Jonathan Knight. Seriously! He’s gay, allegedly, although Tiffany claims she didn’t have anything to do with it (???) and that he only “became gay later”… AFTER they dated. Um…sure. The best part? Tiffany recalls what it was like to date Jonathan, and talks about how they used to do facials together. Oh, God.

Rumors have surfaced in the past regarding ‘New Kids on the Block member’ Jonathan Knight’s sexuality, but the pop performer has never admitted to being gay.

However, ’80s teen queen Tiffany told millions of TV viewers last Thursday that Knight indeed is gay.

Tiffany appeared on Bravo’s ‘Watch What Happens: Live,’ alongside Debbie Gibson, to discuss the singers’ role in the upcoming Syfy original movie, ‘Mega Python vs. Gatoroid,’ premiering Jan. 29.

During their sitdown, host Andy Cohen asked Tiffany if she had cozied up with any of the NKOTB boys back in her days as a touring mall songstress. Her response: Jonathan Knight.

“The quiet one, the shy one,” Tiffany admitted. “[Jonathan Knight] became gay later. I didn’t do it. I had issues with that. I was thinking maybe I did. Now looking back when we were dating he was so much fun. We used to do facials together. He was so easy to talk to.”

No statement from Knight has been released yet regarding Tiffany’s controversial remarks.

[From PopEater]

Obviously, they were both very young when they dated, and maybe Jonathan didn’t really “know” he was gay until he got a bit older, but I don’t think it’s cool for Tiffany to A) Drunkenly out him on live television and B) talk about how he only “became” gay after they dated. I’m not saying it’s her “fault” – it’s no one’s “fault”, he’s just gay.

But maybe she should have had an inkling when they were giving each other facials. I’m just sayin’.

For old time’s sake:

Pop singer Tiffany still stuck in the 80s

Woah. Eighties pop songstress Tiffany isn’t looking half-bad, aging-wise. But it looks like she forgot to wash all the eyeshadow from her lids… back in 1987. Tiffany, 36, best known for her hit “I Think We’re Alone Now,” was last seen on VH1′s “Celebrity Fit Club.” It looks like she’s done a good job keeping the weight off, and aside from the crazy eyeshadow… and the matching dress… she’s looking pretty good. Celebitchy claims that Tiffany is in fact not stuck in the eighties, and was dressing normally until recently. So apparently she’s just reverted to the eighties. Her jewelry is cute and up-to-date, and she’s even sporting a little nose ring.

Back in the day (and by that, I mean 1987) Tiffany set a record for the youngest female artist to top the Billboard charts with a debut album. While there is no official record, I’m pretty sure she also set one for biggest eighties hair on a famous redhead. They really ought to keep track of such things. Tiffany was out and about on Oscar night, attending the Jennifer Love Hewitt-hosted “The Envelope Please” Oscar viewing party, which raises money for the AIDS Project Los Angeles. Here are some pictures, along with the (in)famous video for “I Think We’re Alone Now.” Does anyone remember two different versions of this song? Celebitchy thinks there’s a non “singing in a mall” version, but this is the only one I remember.
