Rumors
These are rumors until proven true. I will do my best to be as accurate as possible.

(From Popstar Magazine)

Rumor: JACOB is not happy about a tell-all book being written by an insider.  We won't name it because it doesn't deserve publicity.

Rumor: DAN answered for all the guys the burning question about why MIKE CRONIN is no longer a part of the team: "We have nothing against Mike personally. It was a purely business decision and everybody still talks to him. It was a move that we made for our careers to get the most out of what little money we have, to be completely honest."

Rumor: ASHLEY went from long hair back to spiky on Clive Davis's friendly orders.

Rumor: ERIK-MICHAEL still doesn't speak with a certain girl who lashed out at him on national TV, even though she now has a record deal.

(From other sources)

Rumor: Jacob and Janie are getting married.  TRUE, actually Jacob and Janie got married on October 26, 2002 at Jacob’s relatives

house in San Diego, California. All of the O-Town boys were present as well as Shelli Lynne and other of Jacob and Janie’s family & friends.

Rumor: Shelli & Ashley are getting married in 2003.  UNABLE TO DETERMINE, We don’t know whether this is true 

of false because other sources say that Ashley is currently single and that he and Shelli permanently broke up.  

So believe which ever you prefer for now. 

Rumor: Jacob & Janie adopted a pet monkey. TRUE, the name of the pet is Abbey and from what I hear they both

adore the pet.  “Abbey” can even be seen in some photos with Jacob.

THE GUYS SPEAK OUT (From Popstar Magazine)

ERIK-MICHAEL ON TOURING WITH BRAND-NEW SONGS:

"It was really weird because nobody knew them. We fed off of the crowd. Energy came from us, the crowd gave it back, we got pumped.

They didn't know these songs, so we just had to perform a song like it was the #1 hit in America. We had to trick ourselves to muster up

enough energy. During the first minute, if you had that energy, by the second minute they'll be singing along or clapping."

ASHLEY ON MAKING THE BAND'S DEMISE:

"When fans come up and they're like, ' We miss Making the Band!' I tell them I really think we're much better represented by our music -

and I think fans are sensing that on the second record." 

TREVOR ON DOWN TIME:

"We had a lot of breaks, actually, recording a lot of the album in L.A. I would go home, spend a week at home with my family, play golf

any chance I got or play sports with my friends and hang out."



JACOB ON IF O-TOWN DISCOURAGED HIM GETTING MARRIED:

"I was expecting that and I never got it. Not that I cared either way, but I was expecting to hear if from certain people and it never

happened. I was planning how I would react to it in my head and never had to. Which is good, because I don't want that tension. It has

nothing to do with my career."

DAN ON BUSINESS ADVICE FOR BEGINNERS:

"Be careful what kind of contracts you sign. The whole TV thing brings on different problems. It definitely gets you out there. People take

from you if they can. That's the bottom line. It's a business. They don't really care about you. They care about you for the time being

while you can make 'em money, pretty much."
