Why are you doing all this protesting? Seriously, the effectiveness of protesting is almost non-existant in cases like this, contrary to popular belief.

Then howcome we are getting on the Early show? It may be short but if we can say what happened on there it might become bigger & maybe something will change but if not at least we tried & showed our support to the guys. They are excited about it as well, just knowing that the fans are trying  :)

So the BSB fans that showed up got the airtime. When the weatherman was outside with different people who had signs up he went to the bsb fans & mentioned the whole backstreet boys thing. They are sister stations so he said something like "we don't wanna start any controversy but the fans are out here cuz MTV isn't playing bsb" & he said they were gonna take the issue up with them or something.

Then they went back to them once more really quick & mentioned it again that "the protest is still going on..." & stuff. The fans weren't protesting like trl but they had their signs. Both parts were a lil short but at least they showed us & actually talked about it. Better than MTV lol they even invited the fans to come back whenever they wanted. I <3 cbs.

I know why you're protesting. I go on to state that protesting has rarely changed anything. I think it is pointless. That is why I was asking you why you're doing this. Why do something that is pointless?

If protest worked, we'd have legalized gay marriage, be out of Iraq, be against the continued existence of Israel, and have Nazism be a capital crime. People protest over bigger issues that more people care about. And yet, what comes of it? Nothing.

Choose your battles. This isn't worth it. And you won't win.

Look I don't know, it may be pointless but at least we're trying to change something. Maybe Nsync & O-town fans can let them disappear & not do anything about it but we're not gonna sit back & take it like their fans are.

Im kind of shocked cuz everyone thought it was just a rumor & Howie messed with us & made us think it wasn't true a couple weeks ago. And Brian just kind of lied at his concert. This was posted on their official fanclub, it'll be on their site soon:
 
Quote
“Earlier this year, after much soul searching, Kevin Richardson came to us and told us that he had decided to leave the group and pursue other interests. He gave his blessing to continue the music without him.

We have no intention of replacing Kevin, and the door will always be open for him to return to the Backstreet Boys. We wish him the all the best in his future endeavors.

This weekend we are returning to the studio to begin the follow-up to Never Gone, and will see you later this year with a new album.”

Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell and AJ McLean



Statement from Kevin Richardson

“After 13 years of what can only be described as a dream come true, I have decided that it is time to leave the Backstreet Boys. It was a very tough decision for me but one that was necessary in order to move on with the next chapter of my life. Howard, Brian, Alex and Nick will always be my little brothers and have my utmost love and support. I would like to thank the Backstreet fans for all the beautiful memories we have shared together and look forward to including you in the next phase of my life. I wish my brothers continued success and look forward to their new album.”

Kevin

i dont know if anyones actually keeping up w/ this thread, but for you in the closet bsb fans..

 the backstreet boys gave out 2 of their numbers (one for nick & howie, one for brian & aj) during a radio interview i think today and i guess a lot of fans have talked to them. they probably have their cells ringing like crazy now what the hell were they thinking haha thats showing that they really do love their fans i guess?

they said their gonna be picking up calls periodically throughout this week.. if you dont believe these are the real numbers, call & you will get their voicemails most likely (or the guys themselves)

the numbers:

Brian and AJ's: 917-209-6173
Howie and Nick's: 646-717-4458

if you actually get nick & howie to pick up, be warned they are a little weird/random sometimes. Nick is telling everyone that Howie's pregnant lmao i love them. but i think im gonna try brian & aj's number cuz i actually wanna have a normal conversation with them haha

this was Brians lovely idea btw
