Additional Jordan Knight Biography
Jordan Knight made a comeback in 1999 by releasing his first solo single "Give It To You". The single reached #10 on Billboard Hot 100, it went Platinum selling over a million singles, and was nominated for a 1999 MTV Video Music Award for Best Dance Video, though he didn't win. The single also peaked at #35 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. The album Jordan Knight won an Aspire Music Award for Best Male Album (Pop). He became a father on August 25, 1999 to a son, Dante Jordan. Jordan's self-titled debut album was then certified gold for sales of over 500,000 copies in the US on July 7, 1999. The album peaked at #29 on The Billboard 200 and #9 on the Top Internet Albums chart.
Knight was a third season cast member on the VH1 reality television series The Surreal Life with other D-list celebrities in 2004. He later appeared in the 2007 spinoff The Surreal Life: Fame Games, but left during the filming of the premiere episode because of the death of his maternal grandmother.
In 2005, Knight appeared on the British show "Hit Me Baby One More Time", where he performed "Give It To You", as well as a cover of "Let Me Love You" by Mario.
In September 2005, he also starred in a British documentary on five in the UK called Trust Me - I’m A Holiday Rep. Six celebrities spent 10 days in the role of an Olympic Holidays holiday rep in Ayia Napa, Cyprus. He initially lacked enthusiasm for the role, which he blamed to some extent on his shyness, but came to enjoy it. In his final debriefing he earned praise from the head reps, who said they would (hypothetically) offer him a job as a children's and transfer rep.
In 2005, Knight released a new EP entitled The Fix with the lead single "Where is Your Heart Tonight" which reached its peak at #12 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart. He continued to tour extensively in 2005/2006 promoting his EP The Fix.
In September 2006, Knight's long awaited new album Love Songs was released by Transcontinental Records. The first single was Say Goodbye (Duet with Deborah Gibson), which peaked at #24 on Billboard's Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart.
