Hey People!!! I was reading the article on the main page about the rumor that BSB is breaking up. The article ended saying this:"The Backstreet Boys, where they at?" asked host Bernie Mac. "They're back on the street." Sad, BUT NOT TRUE YET.
I have a ? for U guys... Who the h**l is Bernie Mac????? + am I the ONLY one that got REALLY SICK OF THAT, "SAY ALL RIGHT" crap... What was that about.. I have begun to fear that the Billboard Awards are turning into the VMA's. That Bernie dude + Jamie Foxx ARE NOT FUNNY... THEY ARE JUST SICK MOTHERLESS PIECES OF CRAP CHRIS ROCK WANNABE'S!!!
I have some idea's on how we can get our voices heard. We can get together a bunch of BSB fans from around the NY/NYC area and, if they are interested, they can go down to the TRL studio's, wait outside, and hold up posters. One side can be like, "CARSON... WE WANNA COME UP, IT'S COLD OUT HERE!!!!" And the other side can say like "MTV=N SYNC BROWN NOSERS" or something else like saying how MTV are hypocrites + are backstabbing lyers.... (I guess you now know how I feel about MTV huh?) Ok I know those are stupid quotes, but U get the idea????
Maybe we could start a campaign or something. But this campaign WOULD NOT be like the other BSB campaigns on the web. We would/have to come up with something HUGE!!!!! Like get together in popular downtown areas all over. We have also got to go GLOBAL!!!! WE HAVE GOT TO GET FANS WORLDWIDE INVOLVED!!!! (if we do get fans worldwide to join + rally, we would probably get mentioned on the daily news all over the world.) Wouldn't it be awsome if we fans took part in different rallies across the globe? We would send off positive vibes for other people. What is the positive vibe??? SHOWING THE WORLD THAT IT IS POSSIBLE FOR EVERYBODY TO GET ALONG. Also, it would be saying that haha.. the media thought we Backstreet fans would let them get away with what they have been saying about BSB. But they were wrong.. WE ARE SICK OF THEIR BEHAVIOR + NOW WE ARE GONNA DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!! (HAHA LOOK WHO'S LAUGHING NOW!!!!!)
WE ARE TIRED OF BEING IGNORED ALL THE TIME AND WE ARE SICK + TIRED OF THEM DISSING BSB OUT!!!! (WHAT DID BSB EVER DO TO YOU BERNIE + JAMIE FOXX, AND THE MEDIA, TO MAKE YOU HATE THEM SO MUCH?)
Also, since I live in the western suburbs of the Chicago-Land area. My dad knows somebody who works for the Oprah show (her studio is like a block or 2 away from my dad's business) I could try + get a bunch of fans from the tri-state area together. We could go to Harpo Studio's (where they film the show) + try to talk to one of the producers or something. Or we can all get together + make a video tape filled with BSB fans' POV's, examples of the media's cruelness + say that fan's of music in general and tired of being ignored.
(not a good idea!!! Just a thought.. hey it could never hurt to try!!!!)
E-MAIL ME @ SNOANGEL2124@AOL.COM + TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK OF THE OVERALL IDEA OR MAYBE WHAT U THINK ABOUT SOME OF THE LITTLE IDEAS. thank you!!!! :)~
We BSB fans should start sharing some ideas + get something going soon, like really soon. Cause I KNOW that I'm NOT THE ONLY FAN WHO HAS BEEN EXTREMELY PISSED OFF FOR QUITE A LONG PERIOD OF TIME NOW!! Most all of the BSB fans @ my school (Hinsdale Central HS) have had enough. And with some more nagging about what the media has recentely said about BSB from me + my other pals, they'll definately have had enough (either that or they'll just say they agree to make my friend and I stop talking about it)

Hey people!!!! It's Mary Jo again!!! Thanx's for supporting what I said yesterday(Wednesday, 12-5-01) basically this message is a repeat of what I said yesterday. I'm reposting it because I want other people to read it also + I have a better chance at them reading it if it's on the 1st page!!!!! (sorry about reposting it... I just have had on my mind for such a long time... Although it was nice to have SOMETHING to think about during Algebra 2/ Trig + Drivers Ed. THAT CLASS SUX!!! DON'T TAKE IT!!!! LoL, ok, enough with my dumb comments) I added some things + what I added is in CAPS... kk??? ok, I am done now!!!Hey people!!! Isn't it funny that "Drowning" is the #1 song played in the world?? Yet here it isn't even played on the radio's??? Also, isn't it funny that Justin + the Backup dancers (a.k.a. n sync) didn't even make the list?
I have come to the following conclusion: not to put down my country's music (U.S.A.), but the American music industry needs to take their heads out of their a**es, open up their eyes, and look around. When Justin and the backup dancers lose their popularity here, they aren't gonna have no place else to go... cause they AREN'T popular anywhere else in the world. When I went to FRANCE DURING SUMMER 2000, the summer that No Strings Attached was released, I asked the teen in the family I was staying with if they knew who N Sync was. She replied, "No, who are they, I've never heard of them before." I also asked her friends and they didn't know who they were also. So when they are done in America, they are DONE for GOOD.
This isn't the way things will go 4 BSB. Everybody knows about how BSB did their "Around The World In 100 Hrs." + probably most BSB fans saw them on Diary on MTV. I think it was crazy seeing fans in Rio, by the thousand, turn up @ their hotel just to hear them perform "Shape of My Heart." Same for Japan and Australia, dang BSB has even got fans in South Africa (which I think is awsome). The point I am trying to make is that it doesn't matter if they aren't as popular here anymore. If all else fails in America, they can just go + tour Asia or South America, Europe, Australia, + the Middle East!!!
HEY DALIDA, THANX 4 REMINDING ME TO PUT THE MIDDLE EAST :) .. I'M SORRY I FORGOT!!! :(
In other words, THEY DON'T NEED AMERICA!!! (1. please don't get offended, it's just my OPINION, and 2. if you think about it, what I am saying kinda makes sense!!!)
If Justin + the Backup dancer's fans think BSB is gonna be gone soon, man are they WRONG!!!!
BSB STILL HAVE THE WHOLE WORLD TO SING TO, + I HOPE THAT THEY WON'T LET WHAT HAPPENS HERE IN THE U.S. STOP THEM FROM DOING IT.

Mary Jo, what you said kicked @$$. I would have said the same thing, but you beat me to it. lol. I'm glad one of us said something. Who cares if Claire, Elaine, and the others can't stand if we talk about them in the morning before school. We are BSB fans and our pride is going to shine. It's so true that BSB doesn't need U.S.A. they have the entire rest of the world. We are always going to be BSB fans and everyone will still be hearing BSB's songs 20 years from now.

hi guys!
it's me again!!!!
i remembered something...
did you heard about a prediction by a famous psychic that said the BSB would break up at the end of NOVEMBER.
well if i am well informed we are in December and the BSB didn't break up.
when this prediction was made, every single tv chanel and radio station and even internet sites, published it, as if it a given truth...
So now that everybody knows that the prediction was false why don't they apologize?....
Now you're geting my point... the media wants to ruin the BSB reputation! if the media were credible and honest, they should make a public apology....
tell me what you think about my idea :)

Ok.....
i have to calm down, take a deep breath......what the heck is going on ?
oh God...wwhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?
guys... this is so unfair!
have noticed that the media treat music albums as if they were movies at box office?
right now, for most of the groups searching for fame and money, the first week sales are the most important think of their career.
the BSB released B&B on a trip arround the world, where they got in contact with thousands of fans. from what i saw in the video for their diary, it seemed like they were not promoting their album, they were having so much fun, they didn't care about the sales.
however... n'sink gave a huge party for the release of celebrity. they invited hollywood stars and even hugh hefner, the boss of playboy. you know... i am not going say anything else about, email me your thoughts.what i would like to say is that n'sink are famous , because they have the BSB's former manager, johny right.this man is using n'sink, so that he may get revenge from what the BSB did to him.
The media never talks about n'sink breaking up, neither about suppose son. the media does not talk also of the celebrity sales. they are going down....THANK GOD! n'sink has to please the media or otherwise ...
you've never seen the BSB relatives, on a talk show talking about the crazy things that the fans have done! But because n'sink needs to impress people, they put their parents on the ananda whatever show.... i know, this is sad....
you know why they pick on the BSB? Because the BSB don't accept the manipulations of the show business. they got married, they're going to form families. THEY ARE LIVING THEIR OWN LIVES. they don't have to give satisfaction to the media. and that's why the media disses BSB.
But one day the media is going to kiss BSB's A--.
PLEASE MAKE COMMENT ABOUT MY REFLECTION: I NEED YOU FEEDBACK:)

Hi mary jo:
you are so right..but you have mention all the continents in the earth but you forget the middle east ..believe me here in lebanon,syria,saudi or other countries there are 40% of the fans of the bsb..in syria every one know the bsb and have their cassette but no one heared about Nsync or someone else they are the story people compare them with the beatles because they are the first and the other boy bands or pop singer take every thing from them..so if they are not so popular in Amarica and I dont think that this is true it is not a big deal becaus the world is better place.

Now that I have your attention. Quit being barking dogs and bite back. Radio stations think they have a right to decide what people want to hear. Well they don't ask me. Don't take their crap any more. Don't whine at the DJ's. Go for blood. Write their sponsors and complain that you are treated bad and will not listen to that station any more. The radio stations exist because of advertising. If even one advertiser pulls their adds because fans are unhappy with the treatment then they will start to pay attention. When more advertisers pull ads then they will get the point. Whining at Dj's is common, but hitting at the stations revenues is the adult way of taking a situation into hand. It can't hurt and it might help.
