Date: Sat Feb 19 00:09:51 2000 At first I heard it a month ago from my friend, but I thought she just wanted to piss me off. Then I saw it on Feb 17 at 5:30am on MTV coming straight out of their mouths. At first I was annoyed. I had never heard that Kevin had a girlfriend, he always said he was single. Then he says he's engaged. Now that I think about it, I'm happy for them. If both Kevin and Brian are happy with their chicks, then let them have their happiness. Hey, it's not like we can ever get them. Congradulations Kevin and Brian. Submitted by Christina from LA CA USA Date: Sat Feb 19 00:05:34 2000 The only sad or upsetting thing about this wonderful news is the reaction of the so-called Backstreet Boys "fans." I can't even believe that there are people out there that are that selfish and heartless! All you people REALLY need to get over this and move on with your lives. Brian is not yours, Kevin is not going to fall in love with you, and the Boys are not going to stop their lives just because a few selfish teenyboppers "don't think this is good for their careers" or "aren't going to listen to them anymore." If you are shallow enough to stop listening to the wonderful music that comes from these five amazingly talented young men, then you had no right to call yourself a fan in the first place. A real fan would be happy that these two great guys have both found people that make them happy. A real fan would realize that this news doesn't change anything. A real fan would know that this is about the music and nothing else. Believe it or not, there ARE real fans out there that are actually happy for Kevin and Brian. There ARE fans out there whose love for the Backstreet Boys is not affected by this news, in fact, it may have even grown stronger. That is the definition of a real fan and those are the kinds of fans that the Backstreet Boys need. So if you are going to stop listening to them because of this, it's your loss. Because, frankly, the Backstreet Boys don't need fans like you. Submitted by Kelly from Knoxville Tennessee USA Date: Sat Feb 19 00:02:25 2000 I can totally understand those of you who have been crying and stuff over these guys you are in love with. But after you have time to think things out, then a real fan woudl realize that if you really loved them, then you would want what is best for them, not for you. That is what REAL love is, putting them before you. As an dominantly Nsync girl, I do not know what I would do if my lance ever got married, butI could find it in my heart to be hapy for him. and about all this crap about BSB breaking up or something, whoever started this needs to get a life. My theory is that BSB can even write better lyrics now because they are expericening a new life and new ventures in life in which they can open up to through their music and attitudes. For the fans who are turning their back on BSB because of this, I do not think we should worry about them because they are not worthy of the title "BSB fan." Submitted by Megan from Ishpeming Michigan USA Date: Fri Feb 18 23:59:49 2000 I am so happy for them!!! I hope their marriages are happy and forever lasting. People are really starting to make me mad though. All the people saying how much you hate their fiancees need to get a life! Be happy for them!!! If they want to get married, you have to let them...it's their lives and you can't tell them what to do. Their grown men and just like any other guy, they have the right to get married. Respect that. Their normal guys with a not-so-normal job. THEY CAN GET MARRIED!!!! Quit trash talking Leighanne and Kristin and get on with your lives! Besides, a real fan wouldn't do that....they'd be happy for Brian and Kevin. Submitted by Caren from Montreal Quebec Canada Date: Fri Feb 18 23:57:14 2000 I really and I do mean really used to love Kevin (I wanted to marry him). But I put an end to that obsession a few months ago for religious purposes. He's still my absolute favourite and incredibly good-looking in my eyes. I knew he was going to get married soon not only because he's the oldest but he really wants to start a family, so I'm happy for him and I hope his marriage last long. As for Brian, I knew he was going to marry Leighanne and I'm very happy for him too. I hope some you fans don't stop liking them for their engagements, you knew it was going to happen some day, you should think about their feelings too. Submitted by Sarah Thompson from niagara falls ontario canada Date: Fri Feb 18 23:45:56 2000 I think that they have the right to have personal live but they never should have lied about it. And I think leighanne is a wench!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Submitted by Kelly from Knoxville Tennessee USA Date: Fri Feb 18 23:44:35 2000 I can totally understand those of you who have been crying and stuff over these guys you are in love with.

Submitted by the opinionated chic from San Diego California USA (baby!!!) Date: Fri Feb 18 23:42:59 2000 ok, i just want to say that i totally respect them for this. and what the hell is a ring gonna change! they've both been w/ their g/f for a really long time and the next step is obvious. i think this makes the bsb seem much more real. and since when were we gonna marry one of them? if you're reading this and you comment to yourself that "i'm gonna marry him, just you wait," then i have one thing 2 say 2 u: GROW UP!!! *deep breath* ok so for all the non-delusional and very sane people left then i hope you can be happy for them and don't act so shallow and selfish. why should they sacrafice their lives so that some pre-teen girl, who hasn't even hit puberty yet, can 'fantasize' about him *rolls eyes* i'm so glad that Brian & Kevin have found this kind of happiness in their lives. k, that's it. if u have any comments, that's great. if their negative then kiss my ass :) buh bye.... yours truly Submitted by Lauren from Albany NY USA Date: Fri Feb 18 23:29:56 2000 I just wanted to say that I am VERY happy for Brian and Kevin. I am glad they can be happy and found two lovely women to spend their lives with. As long as the guys are happy, then that makes me and I am sure, all of their fans happy. Kevin and Brian are two great guys who deserve to have their own private lives and be happy, just like any other person! Submitted by Kim from Houston TX USA Date: Fri Feb 18 23:19:48 2000 I think that they need to get over it. You knew that this would happen one day and now that is has they need to accept the fact that they are getting married. The girls who said that they love them they really don't and they need to get a life and do not need to worry about the guys. I am so happy for them and everyone else should be too. Submitted by Kim from Milwakee Wisconsin United States Date: Fri Feb 18 23:19:03 2000 I'm happy for Brian and Kevin. This shouldn't change the way I feel about the group. I't will also change other people's minds about how they think of the Backstreet Boys. I'm proud of them they should be able to go out and have a family. Your probally worried about how the business is going to go after this, well if the only tour for a small amount a year then they could send time with family and wives. No matter what happens to the group they still be number 1 in my book. I would like to meet you but I know that it will never happen. I proud of the news live a happy life together, and remember I'm your perfect fan. Submitted by fiona from orlando, fl. usa Date: Fri Feb 18 23:16:42 2000 To *Ashleigh*- don't kid yourself, guys, this girl came here as 'nsync fan! i'm pretty sure she was never a Backstreet fan anyways. Besides, we know they've been buzzing around our website because someone named- hmm- *ashleigh* posted in the guestbook a bunch of times lately, bragging about nsync on TRL (ok, so the number one is at the bottom of the video. have you ever watched anything else about it? good god, dear, i wouldn't be bragging!). The nsync girls have no lives- girls that young have alot of time to waste online. that's all. I just wanted to say, trust me, this girl was never a fan of the Boys. Anybody but a fool knows that the Boys getting married is great news for them and the end of nsync. It's a sign of their maturity, faith in their fans, and faith in their music. *ashleigh* my dear unenlightened child, your justin has been screwing britney spears since the mickey mouse club days, and he can't come out and say it because he wouldn't have a single fan left. Submitted by Carol from K.L Malaysia Date: Fri Feb 18 23:16:09 2000 Like them the same not less. Submitted by Kim from Laguna Beach CA USA Date: Fri Feb 18 23:14:50 2000 Okay, okay at first when I heard the news on Brian and Kevin I thought it was all a another rumor flying around but when I found out the OFFICIAL word from my friend who saw it on MTV I believed it because she told me they said it themselves and for some reason it all felt like a dream. I was at first a bit depressed that Kevin and Brian are finally getting married. I knew that someday either two would marry because of their strong relationships that they had with their girlfriends. I didn't want to be jealous because I knew that the jealousy wouldn't take me anywhere. I thought that if they are happy of that decision then I'm happy too. I sheded a few tears (I know, sounds dumb but I'm very touchy) because I was sad about the news and my other tears were tears of joy. I think that they deserve the best in the future and if all the other get engadged I'll be happy as well for them! I congratulate Brian and Kevin and I wish them the best of luck!!! Love lotz and Keep the Backstreet Pride Alive!!! Submitted by fiona (yesss... AGAIN. bite me ;-) from orlando, fl. usa Date: Fri Feb 18 23:09:15 2000 Congratulations! I'm so happy for the Boys, and for Kristen and Leighanne. Now can I just say that I think the Backstreet Boys have some brilliant fans? Critics make it sound like we're all a bunch of brainwashed teenyboppers. Critics thought something like this would destroy the Boys. I just wanted to say that it is reassuring to see that for every misspelled, illiterate, ignorant temper tantrum someone posts on here, there are way more wellwritten, mature, intelligent, brilliant responses (hmmm... is that a run-on sentence? ;-). Anyways, just wanted to say you guys rock! Even *i* underestimated the brilliance of the Backstreet fans. And I suspect alot of them are written by people older than what bsb fans are stereotyped to be. You guys are really bright! Submitted by ashleigh from somewhere somewhere somewhere Date: Fri Feb 18 23:06:21 2000 all i gotta say is good job brian and kevin. yall just offically ruined the backstreet boys. they would have had a few more years maybe enough to break that boy band sucking and gone in a few years idea most people have of them but noooooooooooo they have to go off and get married. this ruins everything. we had pride for our single men. no one really liked them for they music cause lets face it..the music was all the same and pretty much sucked. ok ok. it did suck. but we loved them cause they are so hot and they are the closest most of us are ever gonna get to guys that look that good. every fan of theirs thought they had a chance of that bsb falling in love with them and now that image is ruined by them getting married. how could they do this?? i have no pride now. im ashamed i ever liked them. n sync here i come. yall are the unmarried young uns i long for. and to the bsb...im betting after reading this that yall are wishing that you never decided to get married. well too bad brian and kevin eat your hearts out but you guys just lost all of you fans and with that comes the end of backstreet boys. it was fun while it lasted but all good things must come to an end. too bad yall cause your own end eh? dumb stupid and retarded is about the only way to describe backdoor boys now Submitted by fiona mouthing off again :) from orlando, fl. usa Date: Fri Feb 18 23:01:41 2000 I think it is immature to say that getting engaged means the end of the Backstreet Boys. From the perspective of an older fan who is a musician, it will do the *opposite*. They are breaking yet another boyband rule by getting married! This means that the critics who think their only appeal is that they are single and good-looking will be forced to re-think it. If the Boys didn't know they could rely on their music and talents, they wouldn't have gone on national tv and told everyone about the marriages. This is the best news a Backstreet fan could get. This is as good, or maybe even better than, the Grammy nominations. And besides the business issue, well on a more personal note, congratulations Brian and Kevin! p.s. the Backstreet Boys aren't losing popularity, their fanbase is just shifting a little bit, and they NEED that to happen to continue and grow. why do you think the new kids and spice girls faded away? they had almost all 9-year-old girls as fans, and the girls grew out of it. With Backstreet, for every 9-year-old fan a mature video like SMTM costs them, they gain four 19-year-old fans. Submitted by Megan from Wheeling, WV, USA Date: Fri Feb 18 23:00:46 2000 When I first found out about the engagements, I'll admit that I was a little heartbroken. Brian's announcement was easier to swallow because I've known about it for nearly a month now, and I was just waiting for them to make it official. But Kevin.....well, Kev was a different story. You see, Kev is my favorite BSB and when I heard the news I'll admit that it did pull at my heartstrings. I kinda spent the rest of the day in a kind of funk, trying to sink it all in. Then I discovered something. I was looking through the fan galleries at Kevin pics and I came across a pic of him and Kristin. Now, in a lot of pics I've seen of him, his beautiful green eyes always seem so sad, so lonely. Not in this picture. In this one his eyes are so happy and he is so much at ease holding Kristin's hand. Looking at him so happy has made me realize that Kevin has found his soulmate, someone to love with and to live with and to be truly happy with. I see the exact same thing when I see a picture of Brian and Leighanne together. That is why, my fellow BSB fans, I am supporting the engagements of Brian and Kevin to Leighanne and Kristin. These two beautiful women (inside and out) are the ones who will make these two wonderful men extremely happy for the rest of their lives. Anybody that can do that certainly gets my seal of approval. Congratulations, you guys, and the best of luck to you from the bottom of my heart. God bless. Submitted by fiona from orlando, fl. usa Date: Fri Feb 18 22:55:29 2000 In 1998 Brian had to undergo open heart surgery, Howie's sister died of lupus. they had to endure legal struggles and criticism, and their friend & producer Denniz Pop died, among other things. Yet in the middle of it all, they toured and put on thousands of great shows and continued to work on Millennium and sign millions of autographs no matter how tired they were. Now in 2000 Brian and Kevin get engaged, and people who claim to be fans call them rude and selfish and thoughtless? Get the hell away from this site, because you don't deserve them. Submitted by Amanda Mclean from Chandler OK USA Date: Fri Feb 18 22:52:49 2000 I AM EXTREMELY HAPPY FOR BOTH KEVIN AND BRIAN. THE ONLY THING THAT BOTHERS ME ABOUT IT IS THAT IT COULD BREAK UP THE GROUP. HOPEFULLY I WON'T. I THINK IT IS PATHETIC IF ANY OF THEIR SO CALLED FANS GET ANGRY B/C THEY'RE GETTING MARRIED. THEY DO HAVE LIFES. AND IF YOUR A FAN YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY FOR THEM! TO KEVIN AND BRIAN CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!
