- They put their all into the concerts they do to keep their fans "as well as themselves -- musically satisfied" (AJ said that!)
- They have struggled to get to the top and deserve all recognition they receive!
- They are clean-cut guys. You'll never hear them degrading women, singing about drugs, or carry a "parental advisory -- explicit lyrics" label.
- They haven't let the fame go to their heads, they are still down to earth and know without God, none of this would've happened.
- They are individual, and don't let what other people say affect what they do. AJ now has 10 tattoos, but if it was up to the management -- they wouldn't have any marks on any of the boys.
- They get home sick like anyone would and try to make it home for major holidays.

- Nick and that voice -- oh baby!
- AJ's mom chaperoned them on their overseas tours. But even this didn't stop this Ham from doing what he wanted! When that boy sets his mind on something...
- The way Brian hits that high note in "I'll Never Break Your Heart" and the way he squints his eyes in the video!
- Kevin is incredibly strong. He lost his father in 1991 and continued to follow his dream. How does he do it?
- Howie once cooked dinner bbq style for his girlfriend and then took her out to the local airport and watched the airplanes pass overhead. Awww....

- Brian is ultra-close to his parents... he'd do anything for them.
- Kevin loved football in high school, but one of his favorite classes back then was theater. How variable!

- Howie's big brown eyes ... you can just stare into them all day!
- The way Nick hums in "As Long as you love me" during Brian's verse! " . . . Feels like its deep within me (now Nick) - Hmmmm doesn't really matter if your on the run ..." Aaahhh!
- Everyone knows what a big flirt AJ is. He has more girlfriends than guy-friends, because he's not into sports too much. This shows he can hang with guys, but can understand girls too. Can't beat that!
- B-rok is a practical joker, and loves a good prank. We can guess what one of his favorite holidays are!
- In his spare time, Kevin likes working in his garden! How much patience does this guy have?
- Howie likes helping his mom with Saturday morning breakfast! He really is SWEET D.!
- Nicky doesn't go anywhere without his N64 or PlayStation! Gee ...all he needs is a Saturn!
- AJ has a secret passion to start a dance club. Could it be because this hottie loves dancing himself?
- Brian loves to go to wrestling events, so this guy can have a date anywhere - he's so flexible!
- Country-boy Kevin loves his mom's cooking, and whenever he's able to - he has her chili! Better tell your mom to grab a cookbook, because when he comes over to YOUR house -- you're gonna want him to feel at home!
- Howie and those high HIGH HIGH notes he hits!!!!!!! The Flying Falsetto!
- Nick was born in the same hospital as Lucille Ball. Maybe the hospital has a reputation of delivering funny people!
- AJ's first serious kiss was through a metal link fence ... nothing can get between that man and his love!
- Brian loves Chihuahuas, and even once joked about wanting to adopt the "Taco Bell" Dog, Gidget!
- Kevin's sexy talking voice in INBYH, AIHTG conversational mix, Darlin', and plenty of others. *Sigh* how killer is his voice?!?! Now if they can only get this hottie to sing a solo.... HeHe!
- Howie and AJ first met auditioning for numerous parts, and when they competed in a talent show and AJ won -- Howie was among the first to congratulate him! There ya have it -- Sweet D. JUST got sweeter!
- Nicky was a little ham when he was a baby! He'd put on a show for anyone who would watch! Who wouldn't?
- AJ is a party animal who never runs out of batteries!
- Brian had to raise money for his car, so he helped out at church, singing at weddings and even a waiter -- just for his car! Determined thing-- ain't he?
- Kevin's nickname really resembles his attitude. Train -- once he starts -- there's NO stopping him!
- Whether its straight and back, curly and let loose, or cut short, Howie is a definite freak about his hair! The guys play with him and mess up his hair because they say he's funny when he's mad!
- Nick and his sporty wardrobe. Whether its a jersey, or he's wearing sport labels ... he's always hot!
- Despite his bad boy image - AJ admits wholeheartedly that he's a major romantic. He recalls a situation he had himself mailed to his girlfriends house and he popped out with 2 dozen roses for the lucky gal. SIGH...Hey - If any guys are reading this - you should be taking notes... (haha)
- Brian and that HEAVEN SENT voice! (sorry if I mentioned that before ... but his voice is INCREDIBLE...!)
- Kevin has taken the father figure head of the group and is really made for it ... he's always keeping the other guys in line, making sure they're where they're supposed to be, when they're supposed to be. However, Brian says that gets out of hand sometimes -- "He's a perfectionist" the bandmates claim!
- Howie and his family knew he was destined to sing - when he was 3 years old (aawww...) he got on the edge of his grandparents bed and had a play guitar and sang "Babyface". In a word... aaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwww!!!!
- Nick says in his spare time -- there's almost nothing he'd rather do than spend time with his family -- he misses them when he's on the road.
- They all make sure to thank their fans after appearances -- they know without us (and God) they wouldn't be where they are. The funny thing is -- after a concert, or reading the "thank yous" on the CD booklet, and they thank you, you're thinking "NO -- thank YOU!!!!!!"
- They've said the fans reaction is the most rewarding thing.
- They haven't let the success go to their heads yet. They are still VERY in touch with their families and friends back home (the guys say AJ's phone bill is huge!)
- ONE MORE TIME -- how FLY are they??????!!!!!!!!!??????
- They haven't let the pigeonholing let them down. They started as an R&B group, but their management geared them towards pop. Then because of their looks, the press "pigeonholed" them into the boy band music group category. Still throughout all this, they have stayed true to each other and stayed a group. This is an excellent example of their loyalty to each other -- as well as their fans!
