As the youngest Backstreet Boys, Nick has always had that quality of being playful and sweet. He loeves video games and pizza, and is just a regular guy. Nick knows what it's like to be teased by his older Backstreet "brothers" and he has a lot of sensitivity for the underdog. This is why Nick always makes us melt!
AJ: Conversational Cutie!
AJ is the Backstreet Boys that can carry on a conversation with anyone. This is a skill that most people would kill to have - he puts people at ease and he keeps you talking - and laughing - for hours. It's AJ's friendliness that makes him a bona-fide darling. He loves the people that are close to him (as well as his fans) and he makes sure that they know it!
Howie: Fun-loving and Carefree!
Of all the Backstreet Boys, Howie knows how to get up, get up, get busy! He's always got a big, beautiful smile on his face and he loves to joke around. If you're having a bad day, Howie's just the thing to turn it all upside-down. He may be a wise-cracker, but he's also wise at heart. Howie went to college to study music and he has an Associate Of Arts Degree
Kevin: Mysterious Music Maker!
What lurks behind those eyes, that brooding look, those stubbled cheeks? Kevin is a hard to crack mystery of the first degree. Maybe it's because he's the oldest of the Backstreet Boys, or maybe it's because he's still taking in all the fame tha thas come his way. But Kevin is hardworking and dedicated to the band, and though he may not show his feelings, there is a world of emotion going on underneath his skin.
Brian: Sweet Songbird!
Brian is one of the few genuine sweethearts left in the world. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body. Not a one! He seems to excel at everything that he does - wheter he's slamdunking "rocks" on the basketball court, or belting out a tune that will definitely make you swoon, Brian gives everything his all. He's the sort of guy that appreciates everything around him and knows how to count his blessings. He'll make you hapy to be alive just because he's so happy to be alive!
