Title: BSB
The Backstreet Boys are the ultimate hitmakers. With almost 10 years of songs, there’s a lot to say!
"We’ve Got It Goin’ On"
This is the official BSB anthem.
"I Want It That Way"
The fans love this song, and so do the guys. It’s one of their most requested ballads off MILLENNIUM.
"The Perfect Fan"
Brian wrote this sentimental tune about his mother. "It’s great to have fans singing all the lyrics to all the songs. But when they’re singing something that came from your heart, that’s different," he says.
MILLENNIUM:
The CD made them megastars. "We were trying to make good music that not only we love to sing and perform, but that our fans would like," Kevin says.
BLACK AND BLUE:
The BOYS headed to the Bahamas to write this follow-up. "It was a great vibe," Kevin says. "When you have writer’s block, you can walk right out on the beach and get the tape recorder or pen and pad and let it come out."
Title: Truth or Rumor?
Question: Is Krystal Kevin’s younger cousin?
Answer: Even though Kevin overlooks Krystal’s rising musical career, he isn’t her younger cousin. (I think that is supposed to say she is not his younger cousin. Guess the editor of the magazine missed that. :P) Here’s how they met. A couple years ago, Kevin’s producer pal Jonathon "Mook" Morant discovered Krystal in her home state of Indiana. Mook told Kevin about her immense talent, and he was intrigued.
Before she knew it, Krystal became the first artist on the BSB’s new label. And they even chose her to be their opening act on their tour. Even though she’s not related to the guys, Krystal says their like her big brothers. "It’s like a family on tour, I’m their little sis," she says. What a lucky girl!
Title: Star Puppy Power With Brian
Brian just loves his pet Chihuahuas, Tyk Thomas and Litty Leigh! Tyk Thomas even co-stars in the flick OLIVE JUICE, a romantic comedy about a pet store. How cool is that? Word has it that Brian likes to put in a long-distance call to his pooches when he is on tour. Awww!
Title: BSB, What Do Their Faces Reveal?
Get to know your crush by reading his face!
Does a guy’s smile make you melt? His eyes? Guy’s personalities are written all over their faces! We used BSB as example. Check it out!
AJ~
Ears: See how AJ’s ears stick out? That’s means he’s sorta possessive. (Yikes!) But he’s got a lot of positive qualities.
Nose: His wide nostrils are a symbol of independence.
Eyes: His big, round eyes show he’s full of energy. If you’re an energizer bunny yourself, look for a guy with these features.
Kevin~
Eyebrows: Kevin’s trademark thick eyebrows show a few qualities about his personality. He gets jealous easily but likes to have fun!
Lips: His thin, upper lip means he’s picky.
Jaw: His sizzlin’ square jaw shows he’s rebellious. Sounds like you’ve got your work cut out for you if the boy your crushing looks like Kevin!
Brian~
Eyes: Brian’s small eye’s symbolize shyness. If your crush has these peepers, you may have to make the first move.
Cheeks: See his glorious and chiseled cheek bones? They belong to a guy who loves adventure. If your crush owns them, get your hiking boots and snowboard ready for some fun!
Howie~
Nose: It’s a good thing if your crush has an upturned nose like Howie’s. That shape means he’s a generous guy.
Chin: His round chin shows he likes to spend his nights relaxing.
Forehead: His high forehead is a symbol that this guy is smart. Mix all these features together and you’ve got yourself a winner!
Nick~
Eyes: Nick’s almond shaped, wide-set eyes tells you he’s secretive, so you can always trust him with your gossip.
Forehead: His square-shaped forehead shows he won’t hold back his emotions. You’ll never have to worry about him playing head games- he’ll tell you straight-up how feels.
