Jeff's hurt :( 4/29/01
During the "The Way You Want Me To" video shoot last week, Jeff hurt his back and had to go to the hospital. He is fine, but everyone should still keep him in your prayers (if you believe in that kind of stuff) and hope he stays healthy!

This is a great group because it is really designed to help out 98 Degrees. Go here to join: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/98radio
As you all know, 98 Degrees will have a new single out very shortly, and some stations are already playing it! It is our job as loyal fans to make "The Way You Want Me To" a huge success. So... lets get out there and request our booties off! :) 98 Degrees cannot make it to #1 if no one makes requests! Right now there are very few members, and we really need more to be successful, especially since this is the only group of its kind.
If you'd like to participate, but don't want to join yet another club/group, that's ok :) Here's a list of some email addresses that you can make requests to!

Jeff Article 4/1/01
A Canton, OH interview/article give some interesting news. Is Jeff really married? Or did this reporter mess up? We'll see...
Jeff Timmons of popular vocal group 98 Degrees is a different story entirely. Talking to him, you’d think he’d just won the lottery.
“I thank God every day for all of this,” says Timmons, a 1991 Washington High School grad, sounding wholly sincere. “I’m all about keeping things in perspective, seizing the day and being appreciative of all my blessings.”
The blessings are plentiful. 98 Degrees’ latest (and third) album, “Revelation,” has sold more than 2 million copies and yielded the hit singles “Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)” and “You’re My Everything.” The group just kicked off a 60-city North American arena tour that will play the Cleveland State University Convocation Center next Friday.
But that’s not the whole story. Timmons and his wife Trish have a 2-year-old daughter who clearly is a daddy’s girl. More here. |
