Joey McIntyre burst onto the scene and became an internationally known celebrity at the tender age of 12 as a member of the pop group New Kids On The Block. They enjoyed phenomenal success with memorable hits such as Hangin' Tough, You've Got It (The Right Stuff) and Cover Girl. By the time they disbanded in 1994, NKOTB had sold 35 million records worldwide, and reached the top of Forbes' highest paid entertainers list. After leaving NKOTB, Joey turned to acting. He has starred on Broadway, receiving rave reviews first in Tick Tick Boom and more recently as the lead Fiyero in Wicked. On TV, Joey had a recurring role as a teacher in the successful show Boston Public. He has been a regular fixture on MTV over the years, including features on Cribs, Fanatic, and a record breaking 14 appearances on TRL. Never far from music, Joey has released four solo albums: Stay The Same, Meet Joe Mac, One Too Many and most recently 8:09. Joe can be seen this fall as a guest star on "Love Inc." on UPN, and "Less than Perfect" on ABC. Joe is a Boston native and the youngest of 9 children.
