Wonder Girls Have Killer Connections

You guys already saw that the Wonder Girls and JYP were experiencing the wonder in Dallas this weekend, but even without performing, the girls caused quite a stir in the concert arena. Mr. Jonas, father of the Jonas Brothers and fondly nicknamed by the fans as "Papa J", had revealed to a fan at the venue that he had attended the JYP tour in Los Angeles out of initial curiosity and left so smitten with the girls that he had contacted them immediately to ask if they would like to join the Jonas Brothers on their summer tour.

This lucky fan also happened to be extremely fortunate to enter the concert venue a day before to witness the rehearsals. At this time she met and chatted with the Wonder Girls. Check out the pictures that she so graciously took:

Wonder Girls fans have recently uncovered a picture of the Wonder Girls with renowned choreographer, Laurie Ann Gibson, shooting their famous love bullets towards the camera! Have no idea who she is? Well shame on you. She has been featured on MTV's Making the Band series, choreographed the movie "Honey", and has worked with several famous artists such as Diddy, Jordin Sparks, and Lady Gaga. Check out the full image.

It doesn't stop there. Shin Soo Choo, Korean outfielder for the Cleveland Indians, happens to be quite the fan of the girls and as a result, has converted all his teammates to the fandom as well! A fan had sent him their hit song "Nobody" last year and ever since he first played it to his teammates, they quickly grew enamored. They loved it so much that when the team is having batting practice at Progressive Field, the song is playing. He went on to say, "The song says, 'I want nobody but you. But it sounds like they're saying, 'I want nobody but Choo!' I like it. It gives me an energy boost."

With the Cleveland Indians and famous American acquaintances already turning into Wonder Girls fans, it seems like the girls are already on their way to the big leagues. This Saturday, June 27, the English version of "Nobody" will finally be released and the girls will also begin their tour with the Jonas Brothers at their first stop in Portland, OR.

I’m so glad they’re doing well in the US.  I was kind of skeptical since Americans don’t usually go for the Asian artists, but I’m happy to know that it was JB’s father himself that went to go see them perform.  :]

marie_2902's avatar

the girls are making slow but sure steps,i was afraid they rushed into US market(i thaught they were heading Japan instead of USA),but it seems that JYP knows what he’s doing!
however they need to work really hard on their vocals & dances(Sohee needs to improve,cuteness in USA doesn’t really work),
Anyway,hope them best of luck,seriousely they have the X factor,they need to be patient !!
After all their place in our hearts is granted!!!

Wonder Girls! <3

I have a feeling that they will make it in the states. After all, they have quite a large fan base in USA and in Canada - even before they started planning to debut in the states. I’m sure more people will fall for them along the way. I got some of my friends into them, too, so I’m sure once they hit the stage and they are debut, they will capture even more interest and attentions from new listeners/watchers.

LOL “I want nobody but CHOO!” X]

 
kaypop's avatar

great connections, but i think other artists also have decent hookups just not the concert tour i suppose with a different market.  i think they’ll be popular and entertaining to watch but will people actually buy their albums? anyways, i hope to hear nobody on my radio sometime this year!

Once again, good luck to the WG with their American tour, too bad they aren’t coming here for my state.
