Jonathan Knight, one of the singers in the newly reformed boy band, New Kids on the Block, abruptly left the stage without explanation at a New York City concert on Thursday (April 4).
The band was onstage at the iHeartRadio Theater when, during a performance of their ballad, "Survive You," Knight quickly and silently walked off the stage. With no explanation available to the rest of the band, singers Joey McIntyre, Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood and Jordan Knight were forced to make jokes and continue on with the show.
When a comment about Jonathan's bathroom break failed to return the missing singer to the stage, McIntyre reportedly said simply, "We love Jonathan and he loves us."
Although there is no explanation from Jonathan Knight about why he left, the singer did post an apology to fans on Twitter:
"I'm sorry......"
