I'm addicted
to Nintendo! I play sports games and adventure games and role-playing like

because I can't go outside the hotel. So when I play Nintendo, I enter
a different world and relax.

She's the
greatest dancer alive I think. She means so much to the group because she
has worked with us from the beginning -- when we first started, and she's
done all of our shows, everything we've done. And what is so cool about
it is that she is able to -- Well, if you work with a certain choreographer
some people can tell, you know, all the moves look the same. It's not that
way with us. She's got this flavor where she can make everything look different
in her own way. (Nick on the BSB's long-time choreographer)

We had
gotten some treatments from a bunch of different directors. It turned out,

Long As You Love Me" video)

I had decided
to be a creature from the black lagoon. But if you sit back and think about

turned out pretty good. I'm very happy with it. (Nick on the "Everybody"

Our music
kinda consists of a pop/R&B feel, which is pretty much what we like
to listen to. Groups like Boys II Men and all of those R&B groups,
we love them, and we want to try and portray that in our music. A lot of
times we have alot of messages
