So AJ called - he had clearly just rolled out of bed! The DJ said he sounded like Barry White and that the BSB really are men now :) AJ said yeah we've grown hair in new places. DJ congratulated him on the Grammy nods in 5 of the biggest categories. Asked what their favorite to win would be. AJ said they talked about it and they'd most like to win Album of the Year if anything. He said it'd be hard going against Santana, like last year they had to worry about Lauryn Hill. IMPORTANT GRAMMY INFORMATION The DJ asked what they would be performing at the Grammy's! AJ said they WILL be performing SMTM plus a little medley from groups that have inspired them - an acappella medley. He didn't mention Elton John at all! DJ asked who had inspired them and he said The Temptations, OJ, Boyz II Men. DJ asked how they were exposed to that - AJ said at home by mom and dad. Growing up he knew "My Girl" but he never knew who sang it. So the DJ said that obviously the big news was that 2 of them were engaged. She'd read the stuff on MTV.com and knew that a lot of fans were afraid they'd break up. AJ said he thought that's what a lot of fans would think. DJ said "Yoko Ono". AJ's comeback was that they are involved with people who are nothing but supportive of them. This won't be detrimental and the group will hold tight no matter what. AJ said THE BSB WILL LAST :). Funny - he said he was also shocked when he heard the news, on the golf course! He said Kevin was talking about it for a while and he proposed on Christmas and AJ knew about that. Brian had been talking about it. AJ said he would be 3rd in line to get married, but it will not happen till a few years- if at all. He gushed about his girlfriend a little. Said he liked to spend money on himself and that his GF doesn't ask for anything, but he gives her the world. DJ said they make like $100,000 a concert and he said yeah. (too cute) Next they talked about Millennium and how it has sold like 15 million worldwide. AJ said they were worried about the sophomore slump....They talked about breaking the 1 day sales record. AJ said it was all so phenomenal and that the 2nd album had really helped keep the 1st album on the charts. DJ asked if they still get giddy about that stuff and celebrate - he said oh yeah! AJ said that seeing the beautiful faces of families at shows makes it all worth it. He said the next album will be tough. They don't need to top Millennium, but it has to be a growth. He said they won't be able to top Millennium and the DJ said you never know! He said they'd like to top themselves though. DJ asked about how they like being made fun of - like the Meaty Cheesy boys thing. AJ says he thinks its funny and that really shows them they're somebody! DJ asked if it bothers them and he said nah, they can't make everyone happy. DJ said it must be hard because everyone is in demand of their time. AJ said that he hoped if they're happy, everyone else will be too. DJ asked who he liked as a teen. AJ said Paula Abdul, Taylor Dane, Stevie Wonder, Brian Mcknight. DJ asked if any of them had any cheesy crushes when they were younger. AJ couldn't really think of any cheesy ones but said when Howie was younger he liked Jon Secada music. DJ was really pushing to find some funny crushes. AJ said he used to have a crush on Alysa Milano and also the older sister on Charles in Charge - Nicole Eggert. Said she is now a Baywatch babe... DJ said yey we have dirt on you now!!! So last but not least, the DJ said well when are you guys coming to Seattle? He said they were here last year in Tacoma but he didn't really know of any plans. Then he said that actually, after this tour (no idea when) he will be back in Seattle, LA and Vegas doing his Johnny Suede show!! LOL. That's it!! I sure wish this had been Kev cause AJ talks way too fast and I could hardly keep up! Comment on this item.
