Final New Kids “Ultimate Fan” Found!

It’s been a wild autumn here a VH1.com for New Kids fans. We’ve been searching for four zealots who loved them some NKOTB, and yep, after sifting through loads of pictures and reading loads of notes, we found them all. The last winner is Blair Braman. She’ll be heading to a performance and hanging with Jon, Jordan, Donnie, Joey, and Danny during a meet ‘n’ greet session. Here’s Blair’s note. Obviously she’s come full circle.

“I recently went to a concert in Cleveland and just about got the beat down for my poster I made. I tried so hard for Donnie to see it. I was asked many times by girls bigger than me to take it down! I tried and tried. At one point, people even pulled me down to their row so I could wave it around. And also tried to get their attention. Please help me meet NKOTB! Besides, Donnie did say he wanted to meet all the girls he sang Cover Girl to. Yes, the little girl in the picture is me when I was 7!”

Be gentle ladies… :)

Somie November 15, 2008 at 12:37 pm

Lucky girl! I wish I could go and meet them.

Courtney November 15, 2008 at 12:47 pm

What the hell? I thought entries were suppose to be 50 words or less? But, congrats to the lucky ladies who have met the boys!

Andrea November 15, 2008 at 6:43 pm

I agree. What the hell. The entry my friend and I submitted would’ve had a chance if we would’ve violated the rules and had more than 50 words. Instead, we chose to abide by the regulations in the contest rules and didn’t get so much as a “thanks for playin.” Good to know for next time, I guess.

Natasha November 15, 2008 at 7:12 pm

That is a precious picture!!!! You deserve it!!!!!

Attorney November 15, 2008 at 8:23 pm

1. This violates the terms and conditions; therefore, it should be disqualified and a new winner chosen.
2. Lame reason that she’s an ultimate fan.
3. She’s already had an awesome opportunity to meet Donnie, obviously.
4. Need I say more?

Danielle November 15, 2008 at 9:08 pm

YAY for Blair.

Do not listen to all the jealous mean comments.
You and your sister are the sweetest gals around.
I am super excited for you.

You better email me after the show and let me know how it was.

Danielle

Andrea November 15, 2008 at 9:48 pm

No one is mad at Blair, just the opposite, good for her. It’s just for those of us that read the rules several times and did our utmost to follow them, it is disheartening to see that someone who didn’t follow the rules won. What’s the point of squeezing our best fan moment into 2 lines if the judges pay no attention?!?!

marcus November 15, 2008 at 10:13 pm

this is very cool is that really you on thats cover

Marley November 15, 2008 at 11:55 pm

I believe they changed the rules at some point, so that it stated that we needed to keep the entry letter as short as possible. AND Everyone went through all this anyways with Kimberly’s entry!!!! Who cares! THIS ONE definatly deserved to win! Congrats Blair!

brandy November 16, 2008 at 2:18 pm

Vh1 has been duped, she got to meet nkotb in cleveland and Donnie did see her poster and he loved it. I was there when she met him and Jordan and Danny at the soundcheck. Oh well for the rest of us, but I just wanted to keep it real with all the ladies who tried to enter this contest and didn’t win. Blair did have her meet n greet and thats cool she gets to go and meet them again, but I just thought I should share the truth with the rest of yall. So thanx for the contest and I know we all enjoyed the memories this reunion brought back for all of us. Stay TRUE and do YOU Brandy in Cleveland

brandy November 16, 2008 at 2:25 pm

Vh1 has been duped. Blair did get to meet nkotb in cleveland and Donnie did see her poster and he loved it. I was there at the soundcheck when she met Donnie danny and Jordan. I didn’t know or think that we should or could make up stories to enter this contest, and allthough a part of me feels like a snitch I am more gung ho about keeping this funky and real. I am glad she gets to meet the fellas again but I don’t think she should have lied to get there. Stay TRUE DO YOU and keep it funky. Brandy in Cleveland

Nikki November 16, 2008 at 3:40 pm

How is VH1 being “duped”? Obviousily, you (Brandy) got to meet them as well, so would that mean anyone who purchased 5 star from ILAA should have been disqualified as well as YOU? That is stupid! VH1 was asking for the Ultimate Fan. So, Blair isn’t an ultimate fan because she got to meet Donnie? They NEVER stated in the rules that if you have ever met them, you cannot enter! I met Joe back in 89, so I shouldn’t have entered? Have fun Blair, ignore the haters! Its gonna be a blast!

Jean November 16, 2008 at 4:58 pm

What I want to know is how Blair won this contest – the RULES state that the entry had to be 50 words or less. Her entry is well over 50!!!

brandy November 16, 2008 at 5:50 pm

I didn’t buy a 5* I actually won a radio contest thats how I went to the soundcheck. I didn’t go to the vip party, but I did get to meet them. The only thing I was saying is that she lied on her entry but It did sound like a good story. That was the whole point to my comment is that her story was bulls*#$%!!! She said she wanted to meet him so he could see her sign but she did meet him and the others. So her entry to vh1 and the fact of her winning was based on a lie, period point blank. So Nikki I was keepin it funky and telling the truth. Mind ya business lady. Bee

Nikki November 16, 2008 at 6:43 pm

Brandy- Fortunate for me, my family IS my buisness! BLAIR DIDN’T LIE. Everything she says in her story is oh so very true. We were in our seats, she DID try to get Donnies attention while he was singing cover girl, some girl threatened her, the people in front of us grabbed her to get her away from the threatening girl and helped her try to get Donnies attention. No where in her entry did she, as you stated, say “said she wanted to meet him so he could see her sign”. So your fabrication of suggesting that she lied, is just a bad accusation! Her story is 100% true. And its kinda weird, that out of the 100′s of girls that were at sound check, you singled HER out! The sound check was far from a meet and greet, but Im glad you got to meet them! Please don’t accuse my sister of lying anymore, she has many people who can back her story up! What you are trying to do is just flat out MEAN!

Jeanne November 16, 2008 at 8:05 pm

Congrats Blair, sounds like Brandy has a problem, shounds like she has already met them so why should she care, you should just forget the jealous people and just enjoy yourself. I read the rules,
you did not lie, and nothing is cooler than winning a fantasy.

Andrea November 16, 2008 at 8:36 pm

It doesn’t matter what the rules are anyway b/c the judges don’t adhere to them so who cares what’s true and what’s not.

Brandy November 16, 2008 at 8:42 pm

Um it was only like 25 people if that at the soundcheck first of all and second..she made it seem that she wanted to meet him and the group and show them her sign. “”"I tried so hard for Donnie to see it. I was asked many times by girls bigger than me to take it down! I tried and tried. At one point, people even pulled me down to their row so I could wave it around. And also tried to get their attention. Please help me meet NKOTB!”" It just seems that she was being fake and misleading the story if she is saying she wants to meet them so bad and show Donnie her sign so he can see it, and she already did that.. I am happy for anyone who is lucky enough to get this opportunity, but just keep it real, I am sure it was thousands of other women who had ultimate fan stories who didn’t get the opportunity but kept their stories 100 % real, Good for Blair happy for her, but other honest stories were submitted, hers to me was just misleading. The other 20 some odd people in the soundcheck saw her when she pulled out her sign and he held it looked at it hugged her, etc…. All I am sayin is keep it real and her story was not the real period. Bee

Erica November 16, 2008 at 8:59 pm

I agree with several of you. I also submitted and “followed” the rules with 50 words or less. I have to say that I think less of VH1 now because of it.

Erica November 16, 2008 at 9:01 pm

Okay. I was going to make it short and simple as I did above. However, this entire contest has been frustrating. I think many of us have been frustrated. Why choose someone who already had a great experience! I think it is great that she was his “Cover Girl” how about allowing someone else who had a fabulous story and not a meeting with the guys to have a shot. Okay. I am done venting.

Nikki November 16, 2008 at 9:44 pm

BRANDY~ I have pics showing how many people were at sound check. Way more than 25!
Im not going to discuss this with you anymore. Her story was true, whether you like it or not, and your “side” of the story differs greatly. Everyone has complained about each and every entry, so why should my sisters be any different. She will have a great time, and for those that are happy for her, thank you! I was soooooo very happy for her! I entered as well, and didn’t win. 4 winners were chosen out of hundreds. There comes a time, where ya just gotta be happy for other people that get what YOU want, and Kharma will come around to those who are greedy and try to hurt other people, whether it be words, lies or trying to discredited someone else by saying that they lied.
I can only hope that the winners take these comments with a grain of salt, and went on and had a great time! Congrats again to EVERYONE that won! Hope your memories totally out shine the nasty comments left on this site.

JEANNE~ Thank you for your kind words on behalf of my sister! She is totally pumped!
She has never won anything even close to something like this!
I asked her to not even look at the comments posted on here because we knew there would be some nasties, so I will let her know you said Congrats!

DANIELLE AND LEIGH~ Your entries were awesome, and thanks for the congrats and friendships!
You know if Me or Blair would have won 4 tix, you’d be going as well! You guys ROCK!

ANDREA~ Blairs words are true, this Brandy chick has no clue what she is talking about.

Till next year…GET YOUR MIND RIGHT!

And make sure you know what you are talking about before you accuse someone of lying!
Good Luck to everyone next year, if they do some kind of contest! I’ll be rooting for ya!

I promise this is my LAST post! Think what you want, only we know the truth.
XOXO Nikki

brandy November 17, 2008 at 8:35 am

Nikki I also have pics of the soundcheck and your right it wasn not 25 people but at the most 30. I also said I was happy for Blair, the point to my comment is that weather or not NIkki you want to keep it 100% funky is that she was misleading. She wanted to win this contest to meet Donnie and the group, PLEASE LET ME MEET NKOTB, Donnie wants to meet all the girls he sang cover girl to, I tried for him to see my sign I moved down closer and other were trying to get his attention, blah blah blah, He saw her sign at the soundcheck when she showed it to him and after he hugged her and talked to her etc……. The thing that is sooo funny is that you couldn’t get into the soundcheck unless u won a contest, oh I forgot she never won anything, I guess u feel justified with your “story” Nikki but It is people who know the truth, I mean are u claiming she didn’t meet them in cleveland? I see she left that part out in her entry, just that she went to the concert and tried to get his attention with her sign is a false misleading statement if she met him and he saw it, IT IS BLACK N WHITE. Plain and simple, if u won’t keep it real with us then at least keep it real with you!!!! Blair have fun and i guess u will have to make a new sign that they haven’t seen yet. BEE

Chloe November 17, 2008 at 8:53 am

FYI…

1. She DIDN’T win a contest for the Cleveland show.
2. Yes, she did meet them…most of the people who have entered the contest (like you) have met them.
3. To get into sound check you didn’t have to have won a contest. I know that has a fact.
4. Grow up.
5. You’re a b*tch

Chloe November 17, 2008 at 8:56 am

Oh, I forgot…YOU’RE ARE NUTS

Brandy November 17, 2008 at 9:40 am

Ouch that doesn’t even bother me I didn’t call names I just made a point her story was misleading. If she met them and they saw her sign, why does she fake the funk and make it seem as though she has to meet them to show them her sign????? That is the only point I am making but it seems u have your head shoved so far up ur twat that u fail to realize that. How old are what 22?? Get Real little girl. I am HAPPY she won she seemed really nice, but the point once again is that her story is wait let me spell it out for you.. M..I..S..L..E..A..D..I..N..G. Thats it, thanks for the morning name calling, oh and yes u did have to win a contest to get into soundcheck and more than likely it was a radio contest or you have to know someone in promotions with the group, but you know everything. Next time when grown folks are talking shut your mouth. STAY TRUE AND DO YOU. BEE

Chloe November 17, 2008 at 9:55 am

Wow…you’re bitter aren’t ya.

brandy November 17, 2008 at 10:10 am

you being so young and immature would think I am bitter, but apparently you don’t know how to read!!I said I was happy for Blair, I simply stated that her entry was ah hell I keep repeating the same thing over and over and over and over and over. I mean It was you guys who put on the defense, I was just stating the facts the $&)^$`_~#@@)^+@+ she said was misleading misleading misleading, wow can u read or do u need to go back to school.

Sandy November 17, 2008 at 10:14 am

Brandy, weren’t you the girl who had her boobie signed at the soundcheck?

brandy November 17, 2008 at 10:37 am

Get real……. How old are we?? Although I will say this the YOUNG girl who had her breast signed by Donnie looked like she was barely 18 but he seemed to really like it. Jealous wish u were her, if he signed my breast he would be my boyfriend.

Brandy November 17, 2008 at 10:43 am

Little girls Little girls Little girls do you still live with your parents? Mabye you should have them come on here and have a grown up conversation adult to adult. Kids is it nap time?

Sandy November 17, 2008 at 1:06 pm

Looks like we have a blog bully.

Danielle November 17, 2008 at 1:28 pm

Blair…don’t listen or read I guess any of this cr*p.
You totally deserve to win.

I am excited for you and Nikki, I can’t wait to hear all about it.
*give Joey a snuggle for me..hahaha*

Even though there seems to be freaky pathetic people on this blog. I am not sorry I came here. I made some new friends, even though we have not met in person.

Mandi November 17, 2008 at 3:19 pm

Congrats Blair. Have an amazing time… I wish I knew if my entry was even considered… I thought that I had a pretty great story!! Check this out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXgIup7QhpI
Or, go to youtube and search NKOTB BLOCK PARTY!! Any of the true fans that want to keep in touch can comment or reach me on there. It would be awesome to see another list of the BEST ENTRIES!! I wish the contest wasn’t over and the fans could have the final say for one more trip?? I don’t think that is asking too much :)

Melissa November 17, 2008 at 4:11 pm

Before I vent, let me just say that I am happy (and jealous of course) of all the winners. Congrats to you all, I know you will have a great time.

Ok, so I thought the rules said 50 words or less??? Almost every winner went well over 50 words. What’s up with that??? It was so hard for me (and I’m sure others) to try to get their stories down to 50 words! It doesn’t seem fair that VH1 picked winners that didn’t follow the rules. It seems like they just randomly picked entries or something. Whatever.

Have fun in Seattle Blair!

Lori November 20, 2008 at 1:29 pm

Are you kidding me?? None of these are unique or unusual stories. And I thought we were disqualified if our story was more than 50 words! I spent an hour trying to get my story down to 50 words or less. I think it’s pretty obvious they randomly drew names, rather than really judge the entries!

bridgett stone November 27, 2008 at 12:36 am

Congrats to all the winners! Of course all of us fans who entered wish we had been the one to get the call but, let’s be happy for these guys. I do wish to thank everyone at VH1 who did the contest. My entry did get used in the commercial for the contest so I want to say thank you for noticing me and sharing my special New Kids memories.

kimberly November 28, 2008 at 5:32 pm

Blair! YOU WON! That’s awesome!!! I’m so happy for you! I’m not even going to read through all of these posts, as I can already see that you are getting hassled just like I did. Don’t listen to anyone. You now have great memories and no one can take that away from you! (AND you don’t have an awkwardly embarrassing 90s pic of you up on the website either!) Life is good! :)

Hazel December 9, 2008 at 12:59 am

Congrats to all the winners, you are all so lucky, have a great time meeting the guys, love the stories and the pics The Cover Girl pics are adorable.

Hazel December 9, 2008 at 1:05 am

All of you should consider yourselves lucky that you have even seen them in concert this time around, I’m in Australia and we’re still trying to get the guys here, while most of you are wanting more concerts.

Be grateful that you’ve had the chance to see them in concert and meet them,others haven’t been so lucky and we can’t enter these contests.

stephanie benning December 23, 2008 at 5:30 pm

i am the biggest nkotb fan especially jordan knigt i named my daughter after him and 2years later i gave my son his middle name nathaniel even people said i was crazy 4 that but i didnot care idid then and i will do it again

Christy February 9, 2009 at 9:44 am

I met this girl and her sister at the Seattle airport! They are both awesome people! I will never forget them! Blair, you deserved this and I could never repay what you and your sister did for me that night in Tacoma! CONGRATS!!! Tell your sis I said HI!

samantha keen May 9, 2009 at 5:48 am

the women in this picture should get the chance to meet nkotb again because i think that nkotb would love to see her all grown up donnie might want to see his little cover girl now make her dream come true again thanks.

Jessica May 20, 2009 at 11:19 am

Seriously…i landed on this site by mistake just searching NKOTB on the net…but WOW!!! Get a freakin life people! Who cares who won, who cares if they went over 50 words and you didn’t…did you ever think that maybe it was a “guidline” so people didn’t ramble on for ever. There are millions of girls that would love to meet NKOTB, some will, some wont…why some of you are wasting your time hating those who have is plain stupid. GROW UP!!!!
