5ive Band Member Ritchie Neville Wants To Squash Beef With 98 Degrees

The boys from 5ive say they wish to drop their longstanding beef with rival boy band 98 Degree s… although Nick Lachey‘s group as soon as once more known as them out dwell on-air.

5ive singer Ritchie Neville tells TMZ … the band genuinely needs 98 Degrees effectively and desires the very best for the blokes and their households.

This is approaching the heels of 98 Degrees slamming the British boy group earlier this week … Nick and the group did a radio hit selling their upcoming reveals with two boy bands they get together with, All-4-One and O-Town, however then the convo took a flip when 98 slammed 5ive, as soon as once more citing their decades-long beef.

98 Degrees and the hosts ripped 5ive for being the worst boy band ever … recalling unhealthy blood courting again to the ’90s. Nick and the blokes have completed this earlier than, beforehand calling out 5ive on Andy Cohen‘s present, which prompted a powerful response from former 5ive member Abz Love.

But Ritchie tells us … “They can carry on the beef and immaturity if they want. We’re just getting on with our lives, playing gigs and raising our children.”

According to Ritchie, the longstanding beef began when 98 Degrees went over to the United Kingdom within the ’90s for the “Smash Hits” tour, the place they shared the highlight with 5ive, a brand new band on the time from London.

Ritchie says the rivalry grew out of each bands competing for the viewers’s love on tour, and he says 5ive gained an viewers vote and went to the Smash Hits Poll Winners Party — a televised British awards present. He says 98 Degrees received jealous and had beef with 5ive ever since.

RN tells us … “We were all kids then, I was 18. I understand losing is hard sometimes but it’s a shame that we are now grown men still carrying on this beef.”
