Boys Are for Noise: Hanson Busts Out
Erik Himmelsbach, L.A. Weekly, 9 June 2000
LIKE MANY of us, comedian Jay Mohr has a Hanson fixation. "Thats the hottest kid Ive seen in my life," he said, referring to vocalist Taylor, the, um, prettiest of the singing siblings. "My friends say, Hes a boy, and I go, I dont care, hes the hottest little girl Ive ever seen. He should be on the tennis tour. When he graduates, Im going to be at the ceremony with a van with tinted windows and a six-pack. Get on the 15 and hit Vegas with my Hanson boy."
