One of the best things about the Backstreet Boys is that there's someone for everyone. Kevin is the oldest member at 27 years old. He has many qualities that would make him appealing to the ladies, not just his gorgeous phsique, but he also is an extremely dedicated worker. He's a perfectionsist, not stoppping work until everything is just right. He is often the one calling group meetings, or telling the other playtime's over and it's time to get back to work.

His drive for perfection could have come from many different places. His brothers Jerald Jr.and Tim were major influences on his life, and he concedes that he has lost many girlfriends to his charming older brothers. He grew up in an enormous log cabin overlooking a valley located in Kentucky. His father and mother ran a summer camp there. He says "I'd get my heart broken every summer, because I would find a grilfriend and then she would have to leave and I wouldn't see her again." Poor baby :0p

Music has always played a large role in Kevin's life. "Kevin's played piano since he could walk, I think," AJ McLean jokes. "He plays by ear, he doesn't read music but he does fantastic arrangements and song writing." His piano plying idols include Elton John and Billy Joel, whom he got a chance to meet.

On the personal front, Kevin can bee seen as extremely sweet and funloving. He often goes clubbing when the boys are on tour with AJ and Howie. But lately, in terms of dating, he'd much rather be realxing with a candle light dinner than screaming to be heard over the noise of a night club.
