AJ'S INTERVIEW
SB- Hi can we come on in. Thats really nice of you. This is it
hey, the tour life.
AJ- My big suitcase.
SB- Wait a second (picks up a cookies and cream chocolate bar)
Is this your favorite?
AJ- They're the best. I'm saving it for later.
SB- What's this? ( a table full of bottle and powders) Muscle
building stuff?
AJ- Phosphagane, it's like a milkshake, real thick, I've got to
drink something after it like soda, it's
too thick it goes down nasty. This is Rip Fuel. It gives you energy
and inhanses what you have if
you have any muscles or rips.
SB- You work out everyday?
AJ- I try.
SB- I see another pair of glasses right here.
AJ- Always.
SB- Always. Trademark. Did you intend it to be a trademark from
the start?
AJ- When we first filmed We've got it going on about 2 years ago,
one of our managers, Jonny
Wright, had said that the sunglasses thing was kinda a cool look.
It made me more of an individual,
yet still part of the group. Each of us has their own individual
look and this was a thing for me.
SB- What makes you happy?
AJ- I think what brings me the most joy is being on stage and
making people I've never met, may
never actually met happy. If I can make thousands of guys and
girls and adults and babies and dogs
and cats, whatever, happy then that makes me happy and fills my
heart up wit ha lot of joy. I makes
me feel really good about what I'm doing.
SB- What advice do you have for kids out there that are watching
and are also dreaming about something similar to this?
AJ- Definatly, don't stop dreaming and press on for your dreams
nad don't be afraid of yoru gift
because everyone has a gift of hidden talent whether it's singing,
acting, drawing, dancing to be a
layer or a doctor, whatever it may be. Everyone in their lifetime
has got to have a reason, they're
put on this earth for a reason, so go for it. Don't pause, don't
let anyone get in your way and say
that you can't do what you want to do.
SB- Why are you here?
AJ- To do what I'm doing right now. To make myself and people
aroung the world happy. And to
make them be immpressed in their minds AJ McClean for the rest
of there life nad to make
Backstreet Boys and house hold name.
