"Could This be the Year You Fall in Love with Jonathan?"

THE SHYEST NEW KID!

That's what Jonathan Knight is usually called because in comparison to wildman Donnie, sexy Jordan, everybody's buddy Danny and practical joker Joe, Jonathan's quiet manner doesn't exactly stand out. But there's something really attractive about an adorable guy with a shy smile. Someone who needs to be brought out of his shell!

WHAT'S HE LIKE?

If you took the time to unravel this "mysterious" guy, what treasures would you find? Well, first of all, he loves to be called Jonathan, not Jon. You'll also notice that this quiet guy dresses so well, Donnie used to call him "GQ" after the famous men's fashion magazine!

Jonathan will usually be standing alone somewhere - he's the only New Kid who likes walking around without a bodyguard.

Chances are Jonathan will also introduce you to one of his closest friends - his dog, Nikko! Nikko has been Jonathan's constant companion for almost a year - he's a permanent resident on the Knight brothers' tour bus, sometimes makes cameo appearances on stage and is always by Jonathan's side!

BUT HE CAN BE ADVENTUROUS!

You wouldn't think this quiet loner would be much on the adventurous side, but then again you'd never guess what he did on the New Kids' tour of England! Jonathan, who occasionally likes to roam around by himself, just threw on a hat, a wig and sunglasses and waltzed right through a screaming crowd! And nobody even noticed!

IS HE ROMANTIC?

The answer to this one is a resounding yes, honey! Just because Jonathan is a little quiet doesn't mean he's not as romantic as the next guy. In fact, Jonathan is a big supporter of kissing on the first date!

"You should do whatever you feel comfortable with," he stresses. "I personally will kiss on the first date. I will do whatever I feel is right on the first date, as long as the girl is willing and wants to also." What a considerate date!

Knowing all that you know, could this be the year you look at Jonathan Knight a little differently? And maybe even...fall in love?

JUST JONATHAN

*Last year, Jonathan turned down a vacation with the rest of the group so he could spend time in Maine with his mom and his priest.

*Jonathan travels in a tour bus with Jordan and Nikko.

*While on tour in England, Jonathan lost his luggage in the airport. "It was about $8,000 worth of show jackets!" Well, it must have made someone very happy!
