Always thought they were the best looking (barring Justin Jeffre) boyband, though I prefer Jeff Timmons' recent stint as an exotic dancer (as he still looks as good at 39 as he did a dozen years ago) over him as a popstar :lol:

98 Degrees, the boy band that brought you such hits as “Because Of You,” and “If She Only Knew,” is reuniting for the first time in 10 years, RumorFix has learned exclusively.

Nick Lachey, Drew Lachey, Jeff Timmons and Justin Jeffre are set to go on a fifteen city tour this summer between July and August, a source close to the band tells RumorFix.

Rumors of a reunion tour began Wednesday night when the band’s website was updated for the first time in a decade — and our source says it’s because of the tour.

Ever since the Backstreet Boys and New Kids On The Block reunited, there has been fan pressure for the 98 Degrees hunks to go on a reunion tour. And, our source says the timing is right for the entire group — so they are doing this as a “Thank You” to their loyal fans. Expect a formal announcement in a week or so.

Actually, I am here for this.

I would also like an album. I never listened to there music before, but I'm down for anything from the 90's.

Do people or their fans actually want them back? I still have some of their mediocre albums. :lol:

I think they were one of rare good non urban-boybands from US. They were no BSB or N'Sync who could dance. They were just about voice.
They had some great singles like Invisible Man, The Hardest Thing, Because Of You, Was It Something That I Didn't Say, I Do (Cherish You) and Give Me Just One Night. And of course, their collaboration with Mariah, Thank God I Found You.

I preferred their vocals, although BSB were my favorite boyband of that era.

My favorite song was “Because of You.” I hope they swing by my area during their tour!

they weren't really popular outside of America. Elsewhere they're probably best known for having Nick Lachey, Jessica Simpson's ex-husband. They did collaborate with Mariah and Stevie Wonder though.

yay for boyband reunions. I think they're capitalizing the success of One Direction and The Wanted.

The Wanted is a boyband? I was actually planning on checking them out because I thought they were an alternative band from that name (hadn't heard their music) :lol: :lol: :lol:

We have a cassette of their album! I love the songs :lol: And especially their song in the Pokemon soundtrack :lol: Glad that they're reuniting.. But I guess this is all because of financial problems :lol:
On a Wednesday, at a cafe, I watched it begin again.
