A 98 Degrees residency on the Strip? Jeff Timmons is working on it

SOURCE

**Jeff Timmons is here. having just wrapped a tour with 98 Degrees. With his boy-band contemporaries Backstreet Boyshaving landed an 18-show residency at Axis beginning in March, Timmons has been exploring some shows for 98 Degrees on the Strip.

 

“I am really close friends with those guys (in Backstreet) and have been talking about it,” Timmons after he ran the course. “I don’t know that we’d do 18 dates, but a shorter residency is possible. There is some talk about us doing that.”

Timmons is also still pushing his male revue, “Men of the Strip,” which he premiered in March 2014 at House of Blues at Mandalay Bay. He’s hoping for a 2017 opening for that show, which would compete with another new male revue, “Magic Mike Live,” in development at the Hard Rock Hotel.

What we are seeing with this oiled-down, muscled-up productions is a sub-trend in VegasVille: As many different styles of productions open and close, male revues continue to do solid business — led by “Chippendales” at the Rio and “Thunder from Down Under” at Excalibur.

Colleen Zenk (Barbara, As The World Turns) was recently at The Chippendales http://www.Chippendales.com in Las Vegas at The Riohttp://www.riolasvegas.com . Jeff Timmons from 98 Degrees is the host/emcee. Colleen was great. Laughing, smiling and having a great time. Jeff even brought her up on stage and sang a song to her. After the show, she posed for photos with the guys and hung out in the Flirt Lounge. She looks incredible and was so wonderful with the fans.

98 Degrees Band Reunion Thwarted

SOURCE

RumorFix has learned exclusively that the band members of 98 Degrees were in serious talks to come back with a reunion tour, but the plan fell apart.

Jeff Timmons tells us when News Kids On The Block started their tour he, Nick and Drew Lachey and Justin Jeffre discussed getting back together.

"I think that now would have been a great opportunity for us to get back together," Jeff says of the boy band group from the late 90s famous for such hits as "Because of You," "The Hardest Thing" and "Invisible Man."

Jeff, who is 37 now and about to embark on a four week gig with Chippendales, says there's no bad blood between the band members, in fact he says, "We were like brothers ... we were very close as a group."

Jeff says the timing wasn't right for the group, Drew just signed on to return to the Price Is Right at the Bally's in Las Vegas April 19-30 and of course, Nick, is about to get married to Vanessa Minnillo.

But the singer still holds out hope, "Look if the opportunities not now, hopefully it will be later."

Media outlets everywhere have been reporting that 98 Degrees founder and member Jeff Timmons has joined the Vegas show Chippendales as a stripper at the Rio Hotel and Casino from May 12th to June 5th . Celebuzz had the great pleasure of chatting with Timmons to set the record straight.

Sit tight Degreers. Jeff revealed he will NOT be stripping down to his boxers. We know. Sad face. But on a brighter note, he WILL be lending his beautiful vocal stylings to the show’s already extravagant and provocative line up. His role will be as a guest performer and M.C..

Jeff chatted with us about everything, including his gay following and what that means to him. He even revealed that talks about a 98 Degrees reunion have taken place (hooray!). Read the entire interview and get the entire story straight from Jeff himself after the jump — and check out a chance to WIN four VIP tickets to the show!

When did you first decide to team up with the Chippendales?

My old manager, Mike Caprio, is the PR guy for the Chippendales and he actually approached me about a year ago about doing it and I thought Chippendales? What do they want me to do? They want me to become a male stripper! He said that’s the old school Chippendales — you gotta come check out the show. A lot of celebrities are going and doing these shows in Vegas now. It’s becoming a miniature Broadway. Vegas has always been known as a haven for entertainment. I went and checked out the show and was pretty blown away. It’s a multi million-dollar performance in a $10 million performance facility and it’s a real deal show. Did the guys in the show take off their shirts? Yeah, that’s what they do. Do they strip naked and do girls shove dollar bills in their pants? No, it doesn’t happen like that anymore. They do musical numbers. It’s an entertaining show and it also hits my fan base, which is the female fan base. So, I was asked to come in and, not dance with the guys cause I cant hold a candle to those guys as professional dancers, but to come in and MC the show basically. I sing a couple older numbers and some of my new stuff, and get some new fans acclimated with my new music. It sounds like a fun thing to do.

Is there anything that you’re most nervous about in regards to performing with the Chippendales?

Well, those guys are extremely well-built studs. I’m just the guy next door from Ohio. It’s intimidating to get up there with them. I don’t know if I’ll be performing with them or exactly what they have in mind as far as the musical numbers that I’m going to be doing with them. But it’s an intimidating thing to get up there with a bunch of guys that look like the Incredible Hulk. Just little old me from Ohio hanging out with them. Although, I am really comfortable I my own skin, I think the biggest part of the whole thing that bothers me is that I hope people don’t get the misconception that I’m becoming a stripper. None of those guys in that show are strippers. It’s a very professional show like I said before. At the end of the day I’m excited to get up there and perform and introduce new stuff and get out there again. So, I’m not really nervous about any of it to be honest with you.

What has life been like post 98 Degrees stardom?

Well, I’ve been married before and I have two kids from a previous marriage, so I’ve been spending a lot of time just being a Dad. That was great — but I’ve never gotten out of music. I released my solo record on my own that was a very small project but made some noise on the adult contemporary charts and overseas it did pretty well. I’ve always been producing new artists, up and coming artists, and just been in the studio working on some of my new stuff. I’ve always hung around music and stayed with the music.

You also released an album that you put up as a free download on your website.

Yeah I did. I think at first people didn’t know what to do. I just wanted to experiment and see if it worked. What I wanted to do was put it up and everybody that submitted their email address would get a chance to download the record. I collected over 1.5 million email addresses in a matter of months. It worked out. I was nervous at first. People were asking why I was giving it for free, they didn’t understand. Here people are downloading music and movies for free on the Internet anyway. So, I figured if you cant beat them, you might a well join them. So, I gave the record away, had millions of downloads of it and got the music back out there. Now, with this new album I’ve been working on, I’m going to be doing a similar kind of thing. Starting today actually, I’m releasing the first song. I’m sending someone an email, blasting all million and a half emails. I’ll be sending a link. They can take this link and download the new song. The catch is, they have to share the link with at least one other person on their social network. So you can blast the link on your Twitter or your Facebook before you have access to the song. All that’s doing is helping me get my music to more possible fans.

The next release and subsequent releases on the album all will have music videos attached to them. Real music videos. So, every song on the album will be released over the Internet for free, virally, and with music videos attached. It’s pretty cool.

You talked about your female fan base, but you also have a huge gay following. How do you feel about that?

I’m flattered to have a following at all. The way I was raised, we didn’t discriminate against anybody. Sexual orientation has never been something that intimidated me whatsoever. Having a gay following, straight following, female following, alien following! I’m just happy to have people liking music. If I have a huge gay following I’m totally cool with that. 98 Degrees had a big gay following. We would go overseas to places like Germany and go to a club that was an exclusively gay club. It’s all about getting in front of your fan base and performing. In fact, my first solo show was for a Chicago Gay Pride festival. I’ve never had a problem with it. I’ve embraced it. I’m pretty sure everyone has good intentions, regardless of what they look like or what they prefer sexually.

I grew up in a small town. Not everyone has an open mind about things like that. I was raised a certain way, and if I behaved any differently my parents would kick my butt.

Are there any plans for a 98 Degrees reunion?

You know, we had talked about it for the first time in a long time a few months back, but we just couldn’t get it together. Everybody had different things that they wanted to do still. It’s still out there but I don’t think it’s going to happen any time soon. I think we have seen what New Kids and Backstreet Boys are doing, and they’ve had a fantastic run tour wise. It looks like it could be a great opportunity but we just couldn’t pull it together this time. But it’s not off the table. Just not right now.

98 Degrees Jeff Timmons Reveals Whether He'll Show Skin In Chippendales Show - News - Rumor Fix

SOURCE

Former boy band member Jeff Timmons tells RumorFix exclusively that he's joining Chippendales, "but they'll be no taking my clothes off in this production." Sorry ladies.

Still, the hunky 98 Degrees alum admits, "You never know maybe I’ll get a little crazy in one of the shows and show a little skin here and there."

At first, the 37-year-old was skeptical about joining the men's dance group. "You know the Chippendales have sort of a stripper kind of connotation to it, but after seeing the show it's a multi-million dollar production and a multi-million dollar facility. It's sort of like a Broadway show."

Jeff says he will act as emcee and sing some songs -- including some of his new music -- with the cast.

So what do his former bandmates, Nick Lachey and company, think about his new gig? "I haven’t heard anything from the guys in 98 degrees yet. I’m sure I will. I’m sure we’ll have a few laughs about it."

Jeff will be appearing with the dance troupe at the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas beginning May 12, Thursday through Sunday for four weeks.

Ninety eight degrees is pretty hot, but former boy bander Jeff Timmons donning nothing but a bow tie and some booty shorts is a whole lot hotter (I mean, we imagine). TMZ reports that Timmons, a founding member of 'I Do (Cherish You)' hit-makers 98 Degrees, has signed up for a special four week run with the strip/dance crew Chippendales in Las Vegas.

The singer, 37, will shake his moneymaker at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino from May 12 through June 5, according to a press release on the man-dancing revue's website. The release promises "the temperature will rise" when Timmons "flexes his vocal chords and muscles" as the act's guest star and emcee.

"In addition to selling more than 15 million albums worldwide, 98 Degrees produced such mega-hits as 'The Hardest Thing,' 'I Do (Cherish You),' 'Invisible Man,' 'Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche),' 'Because of You' and the number one hit single featuring Mariah Carey 'Thank God I Found You,'" the release touts. "The group also collaborated with legend Stevie Wonder on 'True to Your Heart' from Disney's hit animated feature Mulan. 98 Degrees' albums have reached gold or platinum status in more than sixty countries around the world."

Timmons will hit the stage Thursday through Sunday nights. Do what you must to prepare.

In the meantime, look back fondly on Timmons and the rest of the 98 Degrees crew with their best jam (that isn't 'Give Me Just One Night'), 'The Hardest Thing,' below:
