What the boys think about Kevin:

A.J.: "If he's in an airplane, turn on automatic pilot; when we basketball he treads upon us all."

Howie: "Kevin is mature man, responsible, proficient, and knows exactly what he wants. But sometimes he can't find the adequate way to achieve this. He is a natural leader and he keeps us together."

Brian: "In one word- perfectionist. He has a lot of good faces, but sometimes just his perfectness spoils everything. He must smile, at least, sometimes."

Nick: "He always lifts weights and always makes an effort to look good!"

What Kevin Says: " I am not burdened with my outlook, but I really feel bad if I don't eat enough or practice enough. I adore excitable and hot concerts where we 'kill ourselves' with work.

Also, Kevin has said with his late father in mind: "I want to live my life in a way that would make him proud, to live my life in a way that would make him proud. I think he'd be pleased that I worked at the band. I think he'd be pleased that I worked at the band. As long as I do what makes me happy, without sacrificing my morals, and follow what I was brought up to believe, he'll be proud."

Ask Kevin to describe life in the studio and he'll say: "Sing. Eat. Sing. Sing. Eat. Sing. SLEEP."

Describing life on the road: "A lot of fun, a lot of work, and sometimes a little lonely. It's what I've always dreamed of."

The above quotes were taken from: Star Profile: Backstreet Boys, by Angela Welch.

Other stuff that Kevin has to say:

"I think that love is something that has to grow. It's not something that's just automatically there. You can be infatuated at first sight, but real love takes a while."

"There have definitely been a lot of temptations on the road. We all come from very wholesome families, though, so it's never really been a problem."

"The other fellas probably think I'm the hardest, the roughest or the meanest of the group. But I cry at the drop of a hat sometimes."
