Jonathan Rashleigh Knight was born on November 29, 1968 in Worcester, MA to Marlene and Allen Knight. He grew up in Dorchester, MA along with his 5 brothers and sisters. His mother also took in numerous foster children. Even as a child he preferred to be called Jonathan not Jon.

He along with his brother Jordan got their start singing in the Episcopal church choir where his father is a Priest.

Jonathan had a pretty normal childhood; even though he had some pretty serious dreams. He told everyone that he was going to be famous one day; he wasn't sure how or why but he knew that he would get there. He went to school and when the time came he got his drivers license. Shortly after he passed the test to get his driver's license he was in a serious car accident and was quite badly injured. He actually still gets back pains as a result.



Jonathan admits that when he found out about Jordan getting into the New Kids on the Block, he was a little more than jealous. He said that he always did everything with his little brother and he was having a hard time thinking his brother may be doing something without him. But he ended up getting himself a spot in the group that was going to take over the world.


In the late 1980's; Jonathan was part of New Kids on the Block. He, along with brother Jordan, Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg and Danny Wood went on to sell millions of albums, perform all over the world to sold out crowds. Even touring with Tiffany; a singer best known for her version of "I Think We're Alone Now". Jonathan actually had a relationship with her, and he has even said that even though they were young he could have married her. But hiding the relationship and becoming so busy he didn't have time to talk to her much they both kind of just grew apart.

When the New Kids started out they would go to school during the day and then rehearse in either Maurice Starr's studio or the Knights Basement probably about 3 hrs a day.

Through out the 80's and 90's the New Kids on the Block released numerous albums; the first of which was self titled and didn't do very well. The group kept working at it and with the release of their song "Hangin' Tough" they went to number one in what seemed like overnight.

It was in Spain that Jonathan realized that he wasn't able to go on performing with the New Kids. The panic attacks were too much for him to handle and he just decided it was time for him to throw in the towel. According to him he did nothing from 1994-1997 except for sleep. He got into the habit of if he had to deal with something he just went to bed or laid on the couch. Because according to him if you are sleeping you don't have to deal with anything. This went on for 3 years and he put off going to the doctor because he was afraid - but after sleeping and not being able to function properly for so long he brought himself to the doctor's. He found out that what he had been going through for so long had a name - and it was panic
attacks or anxiety.

Once he left the New Kids; and was able to overcome the most severe attacks, he started his own real estate company. He would buy properties and renevate them, then turn around and sell them. According to Jonathan, he was always interested in real estate.

Jonathan is one of the most down to earth people and it seems like even though he has been out of the spot light for so long he still genuninely cares about his fans. He even goes out of his way to go outside if you pull into his driveway wanting an autograph or picture - he's easy to comply and do whatever he can for the time you went out of your way.

Jonathan is the only one out of the New Kids that has not gotten married yet. He is still single.

Jonathan is now back with New Kids On The Block, They have now released new album called The Block and tour starts in september 2008. He is now comfortable with the band again and having overcome his panic aniexty issues and ready to be back on stage with his brothers.
