It's April 29th. Welcome to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, powered by AI, I'm Corey, with the story. Joey Patone, the 49-year-old voice from Ensink, just dropped a wild story from their early days. Back then, a fan showed up at his parents' house claiming he fathered her kid. She had a paternity lawsuit ready, and even fake documents to back it up. Straight chaos for the guy who rose to fame with Justin Timberlake and the crew. This all kicked off after Ensink's very first show in 1996. Joey admitted they hung out that night, had a good time, but he never saw her again until she hit his folks' door years later. His dad answered, she dropped the bomb, and they passed her through to him on tour. No demands for cash, just that's her son's daughter. His parents lost it, pure hysteria, and Joey panicked thinking his career was done. When he got home, more threats of court and blood tests. But the burst certificate, total giveaway, different fonts, white-out smudges, mom was
flipping out, but he clocked the scam right away. That near-miss flipped a switch for Joey. He stopped getting too close to fans after that, saying he erected his vibe with them. Not the fame game he pictured when they blew up. These tales show the raw side of boy band life, even as NS1 scene crushed charts and Dodge drama to keep the harmony tight.
