IMPORTANT: Please add your city and state when signing because this will be sent to the HollyWood Walk Of Fame Chairman Committee.
The former members of pop sensation New Kid's on the Block have been denied their Star on the HollyWood Walk Of Fame. This band was the first and only group since the Beatles phenomenon to have so much success and cause so much hyteria and gain the love and admiration of millions of fans across the world. Today pop music and this boyband craze is so over rated I don't understand how the New Kid's can be criticized, because they have paved the way for artists like BackStreet Boys and N'sync to name two. The public, the media, your average music lover and every soul who at one time agreed that the New Kid's were the biggest thing since sliced bread, will not even acknowledge them now. Radio stations and music channels laugh and smirk if fans just want them to play a song or video of one of their many hits that shot to number one and broke records! Today fans have to come together all around the world and send in request after request to get Mtv to play one of their videos. It's not like the fans are asking them to turn the station into NKOTB TV, although it would be nice. Just show some respect. Well New Kid's and their fans are definately still going strong because we were able to get "Hangin Tough" on Mtv. Then it was back to the same old videos. People seem to have forgotten in a short ten years, the incredible success and many wonderful things this band has accomplished not only as performers but as guys who were role models to kids. With their trend settings, positive message against drugs and as sponsers and supporters for countless charities and important causes they were ridiculed and laughed at for what? Being successful? The New Kid's on the Block were said to be puppets on a string and controlled by their founder Maurice Starr. The accusations and rumors were outrageous and made to bring them down, but why? What this group endured as a band has now given all these pretty boy bands success that seems to be a smooth ride. And we are left with one question. The Beatles are well respected in the music industry and to almost anybody, so why did you ever compare the New Kid's on the Block to the Beatles? Well it was a wonderful ten years and the fans want to reunite them not as a band, although it would be nice, but as a token of our love because we feel that they earned that star, and we want the world to be reminded of the five hardest working kids in showbiz everytime they walk down the HollyWood Walk Of Fame.
Please sign this petition. It has been proved in the past that we the fans can make things happen. We need every fan out there to help out. They were turned down before so lets make this happen.

- New Kids on the Block meant so much to so many people, for so long. It is only right that they be remembered forever with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I was only 9 years old when the New Kids were at their peak, and I still today, 11years on, enjoy their music and I am still thankful that they were a part of my life. They made my childhood so much more enjoyable. They were my idols, my heroes. I admired them greatly, as did so many other people. I am sure that there are many people around the world that feel the same as I do. By providing New Kids On The Block with a Star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, it is the world's way of saying thank you to them, for all they achieved, and for influencing so many people's lives. It is also a great honour to them, a sign that what they did so long ago was worth while and that it was appreciated by people around the world.

- I WOULD LOVE IT IF NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK GOT BACK TOGETHER AS A BAND, BUT SINCE I DON'T THINK THAT WILL EVER HAPPEN NOW I THINK THEY AT LEAST DESERVE A STAR ON THE HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME. I THINK THEY DESERVE MUCH MORE THAN A STAR, BUT I WOULD SETTLE FOR AT LEAST A STAR FOR MY GUYS. THEY WILL ALWAYS HAVE MY DEEP RESPECT AND ADMIRATION FOR THEM. I STILL HAVE ALL OF THE VIDEOS THAT NEW KIDS EVER PUT OUT WHICH I WILL ALWAYS TREASURE.

- New Kids on the Block inspired a lot of people. They showed that it was 'cool' not to take drugs, it was cool to stay in school and it was cool to love your mothers. They showed that positivity is NOT about being soft, its about being SMART! They had class, and talent and they gace a damn about people worse off than they were.

- The New Kids on the Block I feel were the 5 hardest band in america. Teen-age girls all around can agree with me. Now the new generation has the Backstreet boys and N'sync. I was a fan and still am a fan of the n.k.o.t.b. They were with me when I was a teen! I went to there concerts, purchased there merchandice and loved them as singers. THey are talented and hard-woring. If you don't give them a star in hollywood you are the ones that are losing out. You are the ones that are missing a part of history. Because we will always be loving the guys that made boy bands so fun! THank you

- NKOTB deserve a star. They had a profound effect on a whole generation of young women. Jordan and Joe released successful solo albums, and Donnie is now an actor.

- I AM 38YRS OLD, AND HAVE LIVED IN BOSTON ALL OF MY LIFE..I HAVE WATCHED THE NKOTB "MEN" GROW UP TO BE THE WONDERFUL MEN THEY ARE TODAY. AS NKOTB, THEY GAVE ME AND OTHER FANS FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD GREAT PLEASURE WITH THERE MUSIC, SINGING, AND DANCING ABILITIES..AND MORE.. THEY GAVE TO THERE FANS AS WE GAVE TO THEM. THERE TALENT WAS UNSTOPABLE. THERE MUSIC STILL RINGS THE EARS IN MY HOUSE.ONLY NOW TO MY CHILDREN, AS WELL AS MYSELF. THEY SO DESERV THIS STAR.THERE WORK SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. I PERSONALLY WOULD BE THERE FOR THE UNVEILING OF THIS "GREAT" STAR. GIVE THEM WHAT THEY HAVE WORKED SO HARD FOR, AND WHAT THEY DESERVE. THEY MISSED OUT ON SO MUCH, BEING THE HARDEST WORKING KIDS IN SHOW BUSINESS. AND THEY CHOSE THIS ROAD..THEY MADE SO MANY, HAPPY! ALTHOUGH MISSING OUT ON CHILDHOOD "FUNCTIONS", THIS WAS THERE CHOICE, TO ENTERTAIN US WITH THERE TALENTS..AND HOW LUCKY ARE WE THE FANS....PLEASE TAKE THIS PETITION SERIOUSLY, AND GIVE THEM WHAT THEY SO RIGHTFULLY DESERVE. THANK YOU, CHRISTINE..."BEANTOWN GAL"!!!
