- Date: Mar 31, 2000 It has been announced. Backstreet Boys will be disbanding as news of *NSYNC's success circulates the globe. The multiplatinum boy band have expressed disappointment over their sales and music when compared to *NSYNC's success. *NSYNC broke the sales record in the U.S. when they sold 2,415,859 records a week over the counter. One of the BSB band members was rumored to have said that, "We've worked so hard and so long to become the best band in the world. We wish *NSYNC all the best, but the morale of the group has plummetted to zero after we heard the news." Executives at Jive Records were both shocked and dismayed at the band's decision to quit so suddenly. "We're absolutely shocked about the news. Backstreet Boys have been with us since the beginning, and we've supported this amazing band all the way. We are dismayed that they have made such a drastic decision overnight. I am confident they will continue to sell records and be bigger than they are now." said Norman Bates, Labels Manager for Zomba Records. But the promotion staff at Jive Records had other concerns. "Our other worry is their fans. What will they say? I'm sure they will not let the band go so easily. We are organising a petition from the fans throughout the world, and we'll present the results to the boys on Monday." We'll bring you more news as the situation develops.
