Let me tell you about my team. I’ve followed them through every high and low. I know the heartbreak of a close loss, the adrenaline of a big comeback, and the magic of those moments when everything just clicks. I’ve screamed at my TV, jumped up from my seat, even...
Am I the only one that needs a real Backstreet Boys/Shania Twain duet?
Seriously it’s a real question. It’s been almost 22 years since we had the pleasure of seeing Shania Twain sing “From This Moment On” (her duet with country singer Bryan White) with the Backstreet Boys.
“I wish I was as dedicated and loyal to ANYTHING in my life as you are to the Backstreet Boys.” – Former Co-Worker
Whether she meant it as a compliment or not, my former co-worker expressed a sentiment shared by many colleagues and friends in my life. And, as with most foreign concepts, there is a lot of curiosity around what it means to be a Backstreet Boys “fangirl.” Here are a few of the most frequently asked questions from people outside the fandom and my best responses (feel free to adapt and recycle where appropriate!).
ATCK is just another outlet for AJ's creativity and self-expression, only this time, he's added friends! I might be...
When I think of Nick, so many amazing things come to mind. Now, this may not be an entire list (is there such a thing?),...

It’s a new year. New year, new you, right? Yep, same old, same old, time to get back into the gym and into your workout routine. Well, I am being serious about it in 2020, anyway.
When I was in high school, I used to write stories on my word processor. I know, I’m talking old school. It was like a...
Imagine waking up from a good night’s sleep, picking up your phone and seeing this headline: “Backstreet Boys release...
It’s that time of the year. It’s January. The holidays and time well spent with our families and loved ones are now over. We are all back to work and classes, our same old routine that gets boring over time if it is redundant. What do we even have to look forward to now?
The last time a Backstreet Boys cruise was announced was last decade. I know, that sounds drastic considering it...
1996. The year I became a fan. I can tell you that this wasn’t the year that I fell head over heels for Nick Carter. Nick and I are 8 years, 8 months and 2 days apart. He’s the youngest member of the Backstreet Boys and he was my least favorite member for the longest time. Sure, I loved him like I loved the others but I just didn’t get what the big deal was. Why did every girl fawn over this kid? Even if I was still a kid myself, I personally liked tall, dark and old as dirt…sorry Kev.
Hey, fellow fangirl! We’re Britt + Kelsey. Before we dive into posting on the reg here, we wanted to take a minute to...

26 years (and 8 months+, but who’s counting?). 10 albums (yes, the red album freakin’ counts). 29 singles (35 if you...
To some people, he’s quiet and shy; and to some, he’s the life of the party. Unfortunately, my initial impression was that Howie blended in. He just existed to complete the band.
Do you remember that song "What Dreams Are Made Of" from the "Lizzie McGuire Movie?" That's what I think of when I try to...
It's very rare that you see a group last as long as the Backstreet Boys have. In the next decade, the boys will celebrate...
Being a Backstreet Boys fan has been a big part of my life. 24 years of my life to be exact. When I think of this its...
“Hey, what are you doing today?” “Going to the concert.” “What are you up to now, though?” “...getting ready for the...
“Hey babe, did you hear anything about the next cruise?” These are words from my husband that I thought I’d never hear....
It all started with a Michael Flattley concert in 1997. That’s right, not a Backstreet Boys concert (we’ll get into that...
I have been taking an internet break the past two days, but it's been very hard. You don't realize how addicted you are...

So where has Karah been? I haven’t posted since I posted the Jonas Brothers review, which was almost a week late at that.
