Attention fiends! When asked if they get tired of all the focus on their lives, Kevin explained, "Sometimes you would like to go unnoticed, bu toverall, we're pretty much hams and we love the attention."
Church choir was Brian's vocal trainging ground - it must have been divine inspiration that made his voice so gosh darn sweet!
Khas a long list of singing faves - Boys II Men, Elton John, Prince, Sting, New Edition, and The Temptations - just to name a few.
Scent of a Backstreet Boy! Kevin's fave cologne is XS by Paco Rabanne, Brian's is Photo by Lagerfeld and Howie's signature fragrance is Cool Water by Davidoff.
Though the Boys have gone through some rough times such as the loss of Howie's sister and Brian's heart surgery, they've tried to remain positive by setting up funds that will help aid other people. If you want to make a donation (with your parents permission) to either of these funds you can send them to the Brian Littrell Fund for Pediatric Cardiology, St. Joseph's Hospital Foundation, P.O. Box 8490, Lexington, KY 40533 or turn to page 19 for Howie's public statement regarding his sister's passing.
Real estate is Howie's other passion besides being an entertainer. With his earnings from his BSB career, he has purchased condominiums in Florida. Who knows, some day, Howie may just be your landlord!
Everyone has to have their bad habits. A.J. says that his faults are being impatient and talking too much!
Education first! Howie says that he would definitely be in college if he wasn't a Backstreet Boy, and A.J. says that he would be studing psychology because "I just like getting inside of people's heads," he confesses.
The song that Howie and Nick admit is their all time fave BSB song is "All I Have To Give."
Believe it or not, Howie studied Ballet professionally - no wonder he's such a great dancer!
"On-stage I try to be as stupid and crazy as possible. Offstage, you try to act as normal as you can," A.J. philosophizes.
Yes, it is true that Nick has been approached to do feature films, but his first allegiance is to the Backstreet Boys, so he hasn't decided if he's going to appear on the big screen yet.
So, if there was a fire and Nick had to go back for one thing, he said it would be his Nintendo and a copy of Mortal Kombat 4!
