Howie Decides To Put Out Solo Record Before BSB Album

(DLS) - On Saturday, Howie Dorough made a suprise appearance at KIIS FM's "Wango Tango" concert. He introduced an artist and let everyone know about anything new in the world of Backstreet. Apparently, his plans of recording a solo album are official now and it will be done before the next BSB album.

The following comes from Heather, known to everyone at the "MFC" as "sweetdfan", who attended KIIS FM's "Wango Tango" concert:

Howie showed up at KIIS FM's Wango Tango today, just a brief appearance to introduce Daniel Bedingfield. But while talking with JoJo he said that to "bridge the gap" between now and when the group records again(though he didn't say when that would be), he's decided to put out a solo album, "sort of an English/Spanish, Enrique Iglesias/Ricky Martin thing" he said. And he said "I'll be shaking my bon bon!" I didn't catch an estimated arrival date on it if he said one.

JoJo said he would be in-studio to talk about it but I didn't catch the day for sure. I thought he said Wednesday, but I could be wrong so I'm gonna check into that.
