I shop more than most women.

Communication is so much better when people are vulnerable.

Everyone always says, 'When you look at a boy band, one of them has to be gay.' No, they don't.

Our fans want us to be happy and if that means being married or having a girlfriend, they are okay with that. Of course, in this industry it is a bit harder to have normal relationships, but it is possible.

Music is love, love is music, music is life, and I love my life. Thank you and good night.

I grew up in musical theatre and love to perform on stage.

There's life outside Backstreet Boys that is going on and continuing.

No one's a virgin, life screws us all!

I look good. I feel good and not to sound conceited I sound great.

We didn't realize there were that many boy bands until we started touring in Europe. I don't think we were ever affected by it since a lot of the groups in Europe didn't really sing live, but we did and would perform a cappella as well.

I pray to God I get inside a girl's head one day and see what in the WORLD they are thinking.

Thinking back on it, I've been in this business since I was 3, and I grew up in musical theater, so I was raised and surrounded by gay men and gay women. I was hardly around anyone straight.
