Well, this isn’t a good sign for New Kids on the Block, 98 Degrees, and Boyz II Men.

Groupon is offering a discount on their Package Tour tickets already! Selling at 25% below the original asking price, fans in New York can see the boys live at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center for just over $50!

But this of course begs the following, slightly tragic question: is no one buying tickets to see the trifecta perform?! And even more importantly, does this mean the reunion tour could be the last go-around for NKOTB?!

Ch-ch-check it out the Groupon ad (below)!

We shudder at the thought!! We were just getting used to reunion tour after reunion tour! Perhaps their audience has finally outgrown them…

Earlier this week, We told you about Pirelli, Canine Assistants' newest ambassador who was born without a back left paw.

The organization created a Grassroots campaign through Groupon, and thanks to generous supporters, Pirelli is one step closer to a new paw!

Mmm, Mmm … What the heck!?

Vigilantes in Papua New Guinea are murderering sorcerers and eating their penises in soup!!!

We've heard of Chicken Soup for the Soul… but D*ck Soup for the Witch Hunter??

That's just silly!

There aren't enough licensed medical examiners in PNG because they're paying sorcerers to determine causes of death.

Sadly, most don't take American Express but you can pay in poonani!

You may not know it, but Edward Norton is the UN Ambassador for Biodiversity.

Crazy, right?

Well he is and he's trying to ignite a viral giving spree on Earth Day with an Earth Day challenge.

He's partnered with Groupon to offer $50,000 in prizes to the three campaigns that raise the most money for their green causes.

To participate, all U have to do is go HERE and donate as much as you want to the cause of your choice.

The campaign that raises the most money by May 15th will receive an additional $25,000 donated by Groupon to their cause.

2nd and 3rd place will get $15,000 and $10,000 respectively.

Edward said:

"Social good and collective action is in the fiber of Groupon’s DNA. We have an amazing platform in our more than 33 million active global customers to activate citizens and positively impact the communities where we live and serve.

It’s an honor to work with an accomplished ambassador and thought leader like Edward Norton and his platform CrowdRise and we’re thrilled to join forces to increase awareness, generate enthusiasm for environmental sustainability and give these Grassroots partners the spotlight and funds each deserves."

It's good to know there are people like Edward Norton in this world.

Way to fight for mother Earth!

Christopher Mintz-Plasse has delighted comedy audiences at the movies since his HIGHlarious debut as McLovin in Superbad, but now he's bringing his comedic timing to television too!

The actor has been attached to a CBS pilot called Friend Me, in which he'll play one of two leads who move to El Lay from small town Indiana after being hired by Groupon.

Nicholas Braun, who starred in the television revival of 10 Things I Hate About You and Kevin Smith's Red State, has been tapped to play his buddy. Both actors also appear together in the upcoming comedy Get A Job.

Do U think McLovin's new sitcom will be super bad or super good?

This is really funny.

Groupon, that awesome coupon website, got themselves in trouble for promoting a U.K. deal for Wrinkle Killer Snake Serum.

It was said it:

Did you know that Katherine Heigl has a new movie out? Yeah, neither did we! We saw ads up on buses and billboards and stuff, but to be honest, we thought they were old The Ugly Truth ads people forgot to take down.

Don't scoff! We don't think we're the only ones, after we just got this very telling email offer from Groupon. Seems the studio is pretty eager to get people to go see this movie and aren't too confident that Kat's star power alone can get the butts in the seats. So, if you're in the mood for some run-of-the-mill Heigl film fare, you can go see her new movie One For The Money and save a little at the same time!

That's right — over half-off the ticket price! Two for less than the price of one if you feel like punishing bring your boyfriend along! (How sad to see it come to this.)

Hey, do you think that's why she's been sniffing around to be invited back to Grey's Anatomy? Think she's finally seen the error of her ways? It's an important lesson for us all to learn: loyalty is KEY!

Have any of U seen the flick yet? Wait, is it even out in theaters? How much money has it made? Does anyone know anything about this picture????
