Millennium, @BackstreetBoys’ BEST album to date
Let’s settle a long-standing debate among pop music and just BSB fans in general: Millennium isn’t just the most commercially successful Backstreet Boys album to date — it’s the best one. Period. Full stop.
Holding the Harmony: The Case for @HowieD as the foundation of BSBs Legacy
In the whirlwind world of pop stardom, it’s easy to be dazzled by the flashiest voice, the boldest moves, or the loudest personality. But every great group needs something deeper—someone who holds the center, grounds the vision, and keeps the whole thing sonically and spiritually intact. For the Backstreet Boys, that someone has always been Howie Dorough.

#BSBTributo Takes #BackstreetBoys to Their First BSB Show
It’s night one of #BSBAtTheBeach. The welcome party is packed in the outdoor theater at the Sunrise property at Moon Palace Cancun. The Backstreet Boys are on stage chatting with fans, talking about the next few days’ events to come, swapping jokes with one another as they always do. The resort has delicious food out in a buffet line and the cocktails are flowing. It is a perfect evening to start off the first ever 4 day #BSBAtTheBeach event.
Was it Everything You Hoped It Would be? #BSBAtTheBeach Day 3
Day 3 brought a slight sleep in (830ish…) and a need to get up and get going to get the 2 roomies to Singled Out for check in. We all got up and got ready, talking again about the premise of the show and how 50 contestants were going to compete for these boys affection.
Was it Everything You Hoped It Would be? #BSBAtTheBeach Day 2
#BSBAtTheBeach Day 2 began with a room service breakfast for some of our room and a buffet breakfast with friends for others. I joined friends at the buffet and got to spend some time catching up and meeting new friends. That alone is a tenet of BSB events and one I greatly enjoy. The food was pretty good with a lot of options at the buffet. I particularly enjoyed the mimosa bar, but the eggs were pretty good too.
Was it Everything You Hoped It Would be? #BSBAtTheBeach Day 1
I can’t believe it has already been 2 weeks since we returned from paradise after a beautiful 5 day stay in Cancun with none other than the Backstreet Boys. I still can’t help but think about how grateful and blessed I am. How many people can say their favorite band has been together 31 years? How many people can say they went on vacation with their favorite band? How many people can say they spent a weekend in Cancun with Howie, AJ, Nick, Kevin, and Brian AND a bunch of our BSB Army friends? This was truly an incredible experience, one for the books.

Surf and Serve with Nick Carter: A Dream Come True
As part of Backstreet’s Back at the Beach in Cancun, fans were given an opportunity to place their name in for a drawing to participate in a number of activities including a volleyball tournament, Surf and Serve, with Nick Carter. I had put my name in for a few events, but had not won. Nick’s event was my last chance, and with my favorite BSB.
Celebrating 25 Years of Iconic Pop Anthem: “I Want It That Way”
