So Sad
Filed under: Music Minute > Nick Carter
Some people don't know when to bow out gracefully!
The Backstreet Boys are still together. Still.
And….
This summer, they're playing the Minnesota State Fair!
And tickets are less than $30!
That's $30 too much!

i freaken love them!!…i wish i i lived near minnesota..i'd be there!!
Perez,
Have you listened to their lastest album. It's very good! Their songs just gets better and better every album. Their songs don't sound like "Everybody" or "All I have to give" anymore. They have really matured in their music so please stop talking trash. Thanks!
fuck off. the backstreet boys are fuckin awesome. let them do what the hell they want.
Don't be an ass. Lots of great people play the State Fair here. And it's spelled MINNESOTA.
Re: Chloe – And it's Minnesota? What's that supposed to mean, skank? Have yo uever been there? Shut your ignorant mouth, and go back to your trailer park.
I would pay 1000.00 back row….LOVE THESE BOYS!
There is nothing wrong with any performer doing state fairs! Backstreet Boys still have a great fan base and there is nothing wrong with $30 a ticket!
Daughtry's doing state fair this summer - nothing has been said about that!
Shouldn't they be Backstreet Men by now?
Awwww Perez…Are we feeling cranky today? Have a cookie Dear
i would pay more than that to see them!
i looovvvee BSB!!! if i lived there i would go! to bad they're not as popular
LOVE BSB!! I'd pay $30, for sure!!
Spelled: M-i-n-n-e-s-o-t-a Thanks!
hahaha too funny! i will totally be at the state fair! but i wont be going to see them!
BSB FOREVERRRRRRR
IM GOING TO THE RIVINIA CONCERRTTTTTT
Hi, I am an idiot. I am jealous of a music group. There for I shall now make fun of their name because I have no other means of attacking them. They can actually sing, so that won't work. They can dance, so I can't make fun of that..damn..they really do suck. I mean they've only sold enough albums to put their grandkids through University….They get more chicks than I ever could dream about..damn it..I'm just I can't take this anymore..ok what if I PRETEND that they broke up, would that make me feel better? Nope, because no matter what I do, their EPEINIS, is still much much bigger than mine.
Dude.. find some Rumor Willis shit to post! BSB have a huge world tour this year.. Don't hate the playa's hate the game bra…and get over the bsb haten'. Love ya' Perez!
i keep asking myself why they still there…..
maybe cuz they still have a lot of fans… it's just a maybe!
and probably these fans buy their album and maybe (just maybe) they still buy tickets to their concerts around the world…
but…. this is just a maybe…. aff…
i would pay one hundred thirty dollars to see the backstreet boys. they were always the shit. aj is hot and they can allllll sing their asses off. don't lie perez i know you love their music…
I LOVE BSB!!!!! Well at least It's not just about money for the Backstreet Boys. Not like other money hungry celebs. The Boys are hard workers and are really nice guys. You can't say that about most people in Hollywood. There Awesome and I'll always love them no matter what.
FYI…It is spelled…MINNESOTA!
Go to eBay and buy a life you fat asshole!
Envy much???
BACKSTREET BOYS ROCKSSSS!
shut the hell up perez, you no talent hack. always trying to piss on other people and their talent.
Umm…Paris (Yes I spelled it Paris, learn to spell Minnesota and I'll learn to spell your name)
Do me a favor sweety, get a passport and get out of your country, goes for all Amercians. There are other countries besides yours and in those countries they are still selling strong. Just because they are not big in the US means jackshit. The rest of us are sick of the EMO, Ass shaking, drug smoking, gun toting, everyone hates me bulllshit that is coming out of your country.
I think save the music came a little to late.
The least you could do is spell MINNESOTA correctly…tsk, tsk!
All I have to say is that BSB rocks, 100 million records sold worldwide deserves respect, not everyone can say that they have sold that, look at all these losers today that supposedly call themselves "artists" They are amazing people and performers! And the only group I've seen that sounds great live! All you that hate these guys, then why bother coming on here to read this? How about you go read about someone who you "love" and leave us alone. And Perez, how about you get a real job and stop sitting on your big fat ass! What you do, is whats sad. Maybe your just jealous cuz you'll never have what they do, which is MILLIONS! That's just it. You fag.
Hey fag, you spelled Minnesota wrong! How about you stop criticizing talented people, like The BSB and enroll in school to learn how to spell!
BSB rules! Like it or not.
*KTBSPA*
MINNESOTA, not minessota!
Not writing about sony bmg artists, are you perez??. That lasted how long???
YOU are so full of shit. Hope you go down hard by the Sony BMG machine, fat fucker
Bsb Rock 4 ever!!…Who the hell cares if they play a state fair or not! Does that make them any less of a group? Man, People have nothing better to do then to pick on Backstreet boys! Does 13 or 14 years mean anything? GOD help me!
I GUESS SOMEBODY FORGOT TO TELL THEM THAT FAGGY BOYBANDS ARE SOOOO FINISHED.
great! now i have to walk through my state fair and be crowded by thousands of people moving like cattle on the way to the slaughterhouse while the voices of the BSB blast around it…sounds like fun to me?!?!…think i might skip it this year
I love the BSB's So perez plz Shut up and let them be… as much as I love you Perez… I love them TONS so let them be and maybe someday they'll become as famous as always:D
they have fans in other parts of the world, in case you didnt know they are big in europe, south america and asia! you americans are so fucking stupid that think you're the centre of the world you idiots…
I've always been a hardcore fan of BSB since the 90's. I went to like 10 concerts - I'm not ashamed to admit it. But their last album SUCKED. I HATED it. They need Kevin back and need to stick to the music they're good at not this new crap they think is good. Stick to what you do best boys!
ok i would SO go see them perform! they are talented and have pretty good music. come on, don't be so biased and angry. PLENTY of people would go see them if the venues were a bit more accessible.
Re: NEW F A G S ON THE BLOCK SUCKED A LOT OF DICK –
And I rest my case!!!
Re: Hmmm… –
GET OUT OF YOUR COUNTRY MORE.
Ok, Perez, first of all, maybe you should use spellcheck before you try to crap on someone! It's spelled MINNESOTA. Trust me, i have lived here all my life, we have never changed the spelling. Second of all, have you been to the MINNESOTA state fair (if Minnesota is too tough for you to spell, the just do this, MN.)? Our grandstand here is HUGE. Every year a big act has played here. Big crowds come into the fairs gates every year! It's not an insult at all that they are playing here. Come to MINNESOTA sometime. Then maybe you can learn the proper spelling, and see that our state isn't so bad. I'd invite you to stay at my place, but we require someone who can spell our state properly before they can walk through our door!
The MN State Fair gets over 100,000 people visting a day. It's Huge! There are some pretty big acts that play in the Grandstand. Don't knock it. Check it out and have some Alligator on a Stick.
I think that I'm more pissed that you're knocking on the Minnesota State Fair than the Backstreet Boys. Why don"t you tell Garth Brooks, Brad Paisley, Fergie, Motley Crue and other huge acts that have played there how poor it is. This is a HUGE outdoor concert venue and one that is sought after. For BSB to have one of the Saturday night spots in the Grandstand…that is huge. This isn't some podunk affair.
I don't think they need to "bow out." If there are people that are willing to see them and if they are still making people happy (as I am), I don't see why they should quit. For some people, it's not always about the money…it's about the fans and about music….and I'm happy and I would go see them at a state fair any day!
WHERE'S KEVIN???????????????????????????????
hey perez! FUCK YOU! KTBSPA!
Yeah! BSB forever!
show 'em some love dawg…
c'mon they have been like one of the greatest boy bands ever..
without em there did be no boy bands era or pop wouldn't be sooo big..
and seriously perez…there are millions of ppl who still love them or else they wouldn't be having aworld tour…seriosuly u should write more nice stuff about them..and besides they are seriously more talented than those screwed up talentless celebs u talk about…..KTBSPA
how come perez loves new kids on my knob so much but seems to hate the backdoor boys. is there some kind of difference?
I thought there were five ?? Where is KeviN???
Um. Could we maybe spell check before we post perez?
Minessota? um no. Minnesota. um yes.
awww!!! im sooo gonna go see them! i love BSB!!!
ok isnt there five in the group
Perez you don't learn huh?! Always bitching on the boys WHY, TELL ME WHY?!
I'm actually going to see them this 6 april, 9 april, 2 may and 4 may…AND 26 may when A.J. is going to do his solo stuff in Amsterdam. You should listen to it on youtube, it's great!
So leave my guys and the fans alone…because i quote Nick:
" IN THIS TIME OF MUSIC IT MEANS SO MUCH TO BE A (BSB) FAN SO FUCK THEM ALL"
KTBPA!
My advice to all BSB fans:
Take the high road. Who really cares what haters like Perez Hilton thinks anyway?
hey asshole - bsb are loved, and alwys will be… so what, their playing a fair.. our COUNTY fair has big name stars all the time.. what you dont mention is that theyve sold ove 100 million albums and theyve been #1 with their new unbreakable album.. and that they have even had solo success (nick, brian, and AJ)
go suck a boob perez
eh, whatever. You put too much stock in the world of superficiality (aka the entertainment biz.) State fair? So? It's a gig.. and for a group that's already sold as much as they have, I reckon there's not a lot else they COULD do.
Perez,
U'RE SOOOOO ENVIOUS OF THE BACKSTREET BOYS - ESPESH NICK.
U WISH YOU WERE A BACKSTREET BOY - BUT YOUR RUBBISH - U HAVE TO MAKE DO WITH TAKING A HOTEL NAME & BITCH ABOUT PEOPLE TO GET U SOME ATTENTION - NOW THAT IS SAD
This is the hottest picture EVER!!!! I love the backstreetboys!!!
Nick Carter is the shit!!
BSB ROCKS Perez, they just missed putting on more uptempos on their latest album, but their voices are STILL pure gold. I don't think you give them enough credit. I wish you would listen to for example "Any other way".
shut the f-ck up Perez they have to restart again somewhere give them a f-cking break I bet you was one of the first online to purchase their cds when they was popular , What is sad that you are such a lowlife to try to destroy peoples livelyhood so you can make your sad remarks you are trash just like this shit you print now that is sad.
Perez what do you know? They're currently doing a European tour which is doing quite well and there are many of us who are anxiously awaiting their US tour. Just because they'r making a pit stop at the state fair doesn't mean they're has beens. Their music is still relevant and good. You stupid fat ass
Once again, the stupidity of some of you people amaze me. The Apprentice was staged - they were told to be difficult and ask for certain things. I know that for a fact. The boardroom talk was for drama - you all DO know reality tv isn't real, right?
And to Perez and the idiots dissing the Minnesota State Fair, do some research first, please. It's one of the largest in the country, seats about 17K … it's not some free county fair. And please, for the love of God, learn to use spell check, even if you do sit on your lazy ass and just copy and paste.
that's really uncalled for you to put down one of the biggest acts ever. although i do enjoy your site, at times your just hateful. you try to come across as funny and witty, but it comes out as more immature and bitter. even though BSB open doors for NSYNC, 98 degrees, Britney Spears, Christina Aguleria, and so many other "Bubble Gum" Pop acts that came out in the late 90's, they get the most shit…. well, except for Brit Brit, but that was self-inflicted at best. i think that its cool that even tho they could just bow out and count their money, they still come out and show their love to their LOYAL fans and swallow their pride and do small venues for way less money, unlike JT who dropped NSYNC as soon as he could. these guys aren't doing anything bad for you to lash out at them, their just trying to make a living. so, if you want people to respect this thing you call a career where you sit on your fat ass as the "Queen of Media" (a self-proclaimed title i'm sure) throne, the least you can do is give a little respect to these guys for working hard throughout the years and still going strong.
hey perez love the bsb ! lol aww old times but hey if theyre in LA soon Keep me posted lol! -Nancy
Ummm this seems weird, because being a Backstreet Boys Fan this show isn't on their website or tour list so if it is a show I don't think that they care that it's not a very big one–they're in the process of doing a world tour right now. In addition if they are only $30 I'd be psyched and go to as many shows as possible.
BSBfan Always.
Whats really sad is these shows are usually booked a few years in advance….
Re: Chloe – You got something against Minnesota?
that is really sad..but AWWW I LOVE the backstreet boys! especially nick, hes so hot!
yes they are STiLL together because they make good quality music and are loved by their fans. yes they also STiLL have their fans because we will always be there for them even when jerks like you bad mouth them. so spread this on your mouth –> KTBSPA!
I still love the Backstreet Boys and, Perez, they are currently on a world tour and tickets are a LOT more expensive than just $30 AND their tickets happen to sell out really fast. They have amazing voices and I can't wait until they are finally not overseas and are playing shows here again
Just so everyone KNOWS another bsb album is in the works and if they are selling out concerts and are still making albums and SINCE they are still together UNLIKE other pop groups like NSYNC,98 DEGREES,FIVE.THEY ARE THEY ONLY ONES WHO HAVE ENOUGH TALENT TO BE TOGETHER FOR 15 YEARS.PEREZ YOU are just jealous of them and so r the rest of the haters out there!
I LOVE BSB FOREVER!!!!!!!
Ok…I know that Perez wrote up this blog to get people riled up or rip on BSB, but you know what I like about it? I love the fact that this board has mostly postive comments about BSB. Sure some of them are immature and silly, but it's still shows that BSB has a lot of support. He may be getting want he wants (with the angry fans), but obviously with responses like these, BSB still has some loyal fans. I love it….
By the way
BSB Rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hating on the Backstreet Boys? Really? Considering all they've done is work hard for their music and their fans. Thats classy. At least they're making a living off of something other than making fun of people.
Firstly, I don't know how this is classified as "Celebrity Gossip" which Perez claims to provide, however here are my thoughts:
I have always been and always will be a Backstreet Boys fan. There is nothing wrong with their music and who they are. They are not selling records or shows to make money and try to ascertain the fame achieved in the 1990s. They are merely pursuing what it is they love. How can you fault and tease anyone for that? I am so sick and tired of everyone’s opinion of the “boy band craze” in the 1990s. Why can’t people recognize that time in music history as being the most profitable and influential in decades?
I just don’t understand the animosity and anger toward boy bands of the past and present. Since many of you superficially label boy bands as that of a group of men singing together in harmony, please keep in mind that you would indeed be bashing the Beatles as well.
Just let them be. We aren’t asking you to see their concerts, so why get your rocks off by belittling them and bringing them down?
i love BSB! Perez. U are a first class douchebag! Ugly and fat fag.
im sorry but backstreet kicks ass…but why would we pay attention to them..their music lacks cussing, perversion, and disrespect to women??
Perez is Paris's little fat fag…..
Re: bsb suck – Normally people who call others fags are they biggest closet fags themselves.
omg you guys are so boring
don't you have better things then writing this mean stuff
so what they are singing again and they are damn good
you all are just stupid to say this stuff and it's really getting old
so get a life and grow up
Re: *bye*bye*bye* – You just made yourself look real smart, considering they were doing that on PURPOSE to be a pain in the ass.
Firstly BSB still kick ass! Secondly Perez is such a douche cause he knows damn well if any of them would give him a tumble he'd fall face down,ass in air onto the nearest bed. Perez just hates on them cause he'll never be as pretty(or talented)as them!
FUCK YOU. They are playing a mini-concert at the fair. This is during their NATIONWIDE US SUMMER TOUR. Backstreets Back bitch– don't hate.
woah, woah, woah… the minnesota state fair is the bomb, you know the BSB are gonna get some of Sweer Marhas Cookies
bsb are the best 4ever
wheres the tall one? id go see em, yeah… but not for THIRTY bones! COME ON NOW!!
i'd say 10…yeah…10….
BACKSTREET BOYS ARE AWESOME!!
Shut Up all of you there are the hottes band i love Brian he is so hot!!! BSB FOREVER BSB FOREVER
Wow, you finally learned how to spell Minnesota! Way to go Perez!!!
The Minnesota state fair seriously rocks. Alot of big names play the grandstand, i believe it seats about 17,000 people. It's not some lame ass county fair. Don't you research before you post? Anyways, my understanding is, BSB are touring currently overseas, and are selling out venues. So, i don't see why they would need to bow out when they have millions of fans all over the world still. They are much more talented then Nsync was. Their music is still good. It's an honor for them to be playing my state fair.
I love them!!!!
Its a F'ing State Fair… and dont judge them for still making music! I mean come on now Hanson is still making CD and putting on shows at the House of Blues… as long as they have fans that are willing to pay to buy their CD and see them in concert then why not? BACKSTREET BOYS ROCKS!!! I will forever be their fan and pay to buy their CDS and go see them in concert. KEEP DOING WHAT YOUR DOING BOYS!!! Love you always!
Lisa
ahaaaa i used to love the backstreet boys… when they were good. i like their old songs. now theyre just washed up old timers who are desperate for business so they sell a ticket for 29$ for the state fair. wowwwwww
You know what is "So Sad" perez…. YOU! You're a 30 year-old blogger who lives his life through others. All you do is make fun of people for still doing what they love! They are the nicest group of people I have ever met! Dont you realized so of the bullshit that comes out of your mouth is hurtful and rude! GET A REAL JOB AND WHILE YOU ARE AT IT GET A LIFE!
As far the idiots who actually believed thats how they act,,, GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK! Didnt you see when nick asked for the wheatgrass juice he was smiling trying not to laugh! They would never not do a CHARITY event b/c they done have wheat grass and nail polish!COME ON PEOPLE!
well first - the MN state fair isnt actually that bad of a place to play, the grandstand is huge. and second, is it sad that i actually might be going to this? hahaaa i havent listened to any BSB since like.. I Want it That Way - but $30? cheaaaap
For all you dissin fags….go fuck a tree…or better yet your mom. No one cares if you like the backstreet boys…If we wanted your opinion we would have asked for it. Now would we? YES! The guys still have plenty of support from many of u fans.And to all you little shits, May you die a dreadful death…..
perez u are a fcking asshole
where is kevin haha
what the fuck is nick carter on?
seriously…he looks so stupid right there..what the hell.
It shouldnt matter where they are playing, There have been many artists that have taken the time to do a concert at a state fair, there is nothing wrong with it, so what if their tickets are less than $30. Also, it shouldnt matter to "non- fans" that the backstreet boys havent "bowed" out yet. They still have fans out there who are buying their music, (Yes I include myself in this, I have been a fan of them for 12 year) and attending their concerts! I really dont care that people say that they suck, but please, dont diss a music genre, just cause you dont like it, cause there are people who do.
I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!
BSB is amazing. They do tons of various venues so all types of fans can see them. I don't see anything wrong with that.
