well i mean as fans we could get technical. i mean selling 5 million in one week worldwide did shatter both the boys record and nsync's. i dont believe aj said just in the US but i could be wrong. so in my opinion he was right, they did outdo themselves this time. KTBSPA! but you know what i just got done watching their "diary" on mtv and what they stressed over and over..that the record doesnt mean sh*t if the fans arent happy. but i am happy with the album so if by some technicality they didnt break the record then so be it. they will always be number 1 to me!

the Backstreet Boys sang with Shania Twain. Although I don't like country music, she is soo good that I bought her album! Faith Hill, the popular one right now said she believes BSB would beat nsync's record because it has soo much growth and appeals to a variety of people like myself. Go Shania and Faith!

BSB are #1 for all their fans always. They know they broke the record and don't need to publicize it to prove themselves. Even if they didn't, that worldwide record is awesome! I'm really proud of the guyz!

ALL BSB FANS READ!!!!!!!INFO ON BSB & NSYNC RECORD SALES!!!!
With this information you might be shocked, as I was, this was fowarded to me in an email. To let you know now i am both an nsync and bsb fan, but this whole bsb thing not even coming close to beating nsync's record seemed kinda fishy. In order to understand u must read it all carefully. and to let you all know now it might be true, and it might NOT be true.
*Whats weird about this is when NSA came out, people told me that it did in fact have that they bought two copies when they only really bought one... but i dont believe this*
*The Boys sold 3.6 copies of Black and Blue here in the U.S. it's first week.**
But don't hold your breath waiting for Soundscan or Jive to announce it because it isn't going to happen.
Here is how I came about this information. I was
waiting in line for concert tix this morning when I struck up a conversation with another woman who was getting tix for another venue. But she also thinks the Boys are pretty good, even though she admitted she wasn't a "die-hard fan". She actually likes 'NSync better, not because of the vocals (she said the BSB are far superior), but because she just likes the up-tempos more and likes the dancing emphasis in the 'NSync shows. This lady has a very wide taste in
music, believe me! From Nine Inch Nails to Limp to 98 Degrees. We started talking about Black and Blue and she said she really liked it. She had also heard of the MFC, and she said she would look us up on the Internet because she liked the idea about all the charity work
that we do.
Anyways, we got to talking about first week sales, and she told me that she grew up in the Orlando area, and she has a good friend who is directly affiliated with Jive. Her friend's family owns Kingworld productions, and she mentioned several names that I know for a fact
are associated with the Boys and Jive. (No, she has never met them, nor does she claim to know them personally).
**Anybody remember that little post from the BOOST club that ended up on the MFC message board and other boards that stated the Boys had sold 3.6 million so far? And then it suddenly "disappeared" justlikethat?**
Well, this was the EXACT number this lady quoted to me!
I asked her how she came up with this information, and she said it all started back with the sale of NSA when she went to buy a copy for her daughter the first week it came out, and she noticed a #2 by the "quantity" line. But yet she only paid for one. She said she asked the store manager about it, and he said that was
how Jive had instructed all of them to be keyed in. (??)
She wasn't happy with that answer, so she called her friend in Florida because she knew she was associated with Jive, but she claimed ignorance about the whole thing. But then after Black and Blue came out, her friend gave her the whole scoop and told her that NSA did NOT sell 2.4 million that first week. It only sold 1.2 million, just barely beating out the Boys' record.
The inflated figures came from carefully-placed marks on the bar codes that automatically registerd a single purchase of NSA as being 2 copies, although most consumers never saw the discrepancy or were aware of the marks.
I was still a little skeptical here, so I asked her why Jive would intentionally do this, and she quoted the "boy band" feud thing... trying to keep the fires of competition going between the fans.
So why would Jive deliberately LOWER the numbers for Black and Blue if it really sold 3.6 million copies? She said her friend told her that this will actually BOOST sales for both albums, and that they (Jive) are centering a lot of attention on NSync right now and trying to keep them "on top" because they figure they can get one more album out of them before they lose
their very young teen and pre-teen fanbase. And then it will be all over. NO multi-album deals have been offered to NSync, and we all know that the Boys have a 5-album deal, which will probably take them at least 6-8 years or so to fill, depending on whether or not double-album or single-album releases are planned for the future.
**In other words, Jive knows that the Boys are here to stay, and they're milking the NSync cash cow for everything they can right now!**
If the Boys leave Jive, which they have hinted at
recently in the press, Jive will plummet rapidly. They will have Britney and NSync, both of which have a very "iffy" chance at longevity.
So do the Boys know about this? That I can't tell you, but her friend told her that she thought they did, and that they're okay with it because they're trying to get away from the "boy band" competition between them and NSync. Beating their record would have just fueled
the fire even more. They're distancing themselves from this whole mess and trying to re-invent themselves both musically and personally.
Do I believe this person? Well, I can't imagine why she would make something like this up. And she admitted to liking NSync more. And if you look at some of the "rumors" that were flying around when NSA first came out about messed-up receipts and such, it makes sense. And did anyone notice how tight-lipped sources were with giving the public any info about Black and
Blue's sales at first? The media was broadcasting NSA's sales tallies almost on a daily basis earlier this year! And nowhere have I seen WalMart's actual first-week sales posted.
Very interesting to think about. But I have to say this... if this is true, I have just gained a huge amount of respect for the Boys. To know what is going on and NOT say anything says volumes to me. And on the opposite hand, for Nsync to be equally knowledgeable about all of this literally makes me ill.
Again, I have NO WAY of proving this, but I have a feeling that time will eventually weed this little scandal out. And guess who will come out smelling like a rose, STILL playing to packed-out audiences, and STILL selling a ton of records??

"open your eyes" you know what, you can keep trashing bsb allllll you want, your just making nsync fans look bad. there's no way in hell you'll make us change our minds about bsb, i WAS an nsync fan myself, but I OPENED MY EYES, and saw that bsb has real talent. look don't matter, records don't matter, it's the music that matters. go ahead, and brag that you'll break bsb's worldwide record, i highly doubt that, because unlike nsync, bsb actually care about their fans WORLDWIDE, nsync is NO where near bsb worldwide, because they don't go to other countries much. they focus on the US, have they done a NSA concert overseas? no! you can say all you want about nsync, being energetic and crap, sure they can dance, i'll give them that, but what can dancing do for you in the future? nsync can sing? jc can sing, but what ever happened to the rest? it's always jc and justin. yeah, sure you like nsync, they're for kiddies, no wonder they're not getting REAL respect in the music industry. you can brag all you want about that gloria estefan duet if you want. but compare her (i 100% respect ms. estefan) to elton john, sting, tom jones, tony bennet, etc. I AM WHAT EVER YOU SAY I AM, too.

Hey everyone.I just read what bsbphan wrote. If the friend of that lady she talked to was associated with JIVE, then why didn't she do anything when she KNEW that nsync only sold 1.2 million albums??? Jive has some nerve to do that to our beloved BSB.
What the hell is their problem? They know that BACKSTREET BOYS have alot of success and if they make money, doesn't Jive make money? Why do they only care about Nsync? Why do they only help Nsync and their record when BSB was there first? Like I said, Jive has some nerve. I knew right from the start that Jive was up to something. Why did Nsync want to join Jive when they don't ever like one of their current label mate? Backstreet Boys should leave Jive and go to another and label for their sake. I bet BSB really sold 3.6 million because of all the promotion they did, and with the help of their online fans. Jive is screwed up.

Okay, I have one more thing to OPEN YOUR EYES: Jennifer Lopez LOVES BSB. She admitted it in that show, I can't remember what it's called, BUT she said it. She even said it on TRL today, Carson was pretty much drowning her voice out, but you can hear her. Fred Durst is actually friends with BSB, especially A.J, he even suggested a name for their album. Deliverance. Elton John, Madonna, a LOT of people. Dr. Dre even. Okay, about Eminem...I agree with you there.

I AM going to say that I was confused when it said that it was only 1.6 mill, because there were a thousand websites saying that it DEFINITELY went to two million, but I still don't get it. I am not whining or anything, but I want to get to the bottom of it, WITHOUT insulting NSYNC or BSB. We can't have a recount y'all, there's enough of that in Florida.
