Q: If you weren't a member of one of the most successful pop groups of all time what do you think you might be doing instead?

Kev: Probably acting, I don't know how successfully though!

Q: What do you do with the prezzies that your fans send you?

AJ: We keep some but we get so many that others go to charities and stuff. Our fans are very generous.

Q: What are the best and worst things about being a member of a famous pop act?

Nick: The best is definitely being able to travel and meet so many great people. The worst would have to be the lack of privacy.

Q: Does it ever annoy you when people stare and keep asking your for your autograph?

Kev: Not usually. I feel privileged to be in this position and it's the guys who want autographs that made it all possible.

Q: Spill the beans about your most embarrassing moment!

Howie: Wow, there are loads! You know, falling over on stage, falling off stage even. You'd be amazed at how often all that kind of stuff seems to happen. It's always good to look back and laugh together.

Q: Tell us about the last dream you can remember.

Brian: I dreamt that I was the Incredible Hulk - I think it was because Nick had been talking about what a cool cartoon character the Hulk is earlier that day

Q: If you could swap places with anyone in the world right now, for just one day, who would you choose to be?

Nick: Eminem. I think that would be very interesting!

Q: Tell us the greatest place you've ever visited with the guys.

Kev: I really like Brazil - it's a fantastic place. But every place has its good points, discovering them is the secret...

Q: Are any of you planning solo projects either in music or in films?

Brian: I'm actually involved in making a movie at the moment called Olive Juice with my wife. AJ's in it too.

Q: We hear Nick is the manage of a cool rock band - tell us a bit more about that.

Nick: I've always been into rock music so this is just me having a good time and helping a really great band out at the same time.

Q: What's your fave food when you're away on tour?

Brian: Pizza! Although I also love chicken drumsticks.

Q: Do you compare notes to check who gets the most fan mail?

Brian: No,we never have. Nick gets the most and he always has done, but lately AJ has been catching up.

Q: Do you ever get bored of the pop star lifestyle?

Howie: Not very often. You do sometimes get days when you wish you could just get away from it all but that doesn't happen too often.

Q: What's the best piece of advice you've ever been given?

AJ: You can never have too many tattoos!

Q: Is it true you guys have clubbed together to buy a specially designed BSB jet plane?

Kev: The truth is that the plane was only for our World Trip at the end of last year. We had to give it back afterwards.

Q: Are any of you jealous that Justin Timberlake is dating Britney Spears?

Howie: Not at all - she's a very nice girl though so Justin's a lucky guy

Q: If everything to do with BSB was to end tomorrow what would you miss most?

Howie: The sound of the audience before we go on stage. It's a great feeling.

Q: What's your all time fave BSB song?

Nick: I like Shining Star from the new album Black and Blue.

Q: What's your best memory from being in the band?

Kev: Again, there are so many it's difficult to choose. The things that really stick out are our first gold disc, our first awards ceremony and our first ever stadium show - they're all amazing memories.

Q: What do you do to keep fit and healthy when you're on a long tour?

Nick: Shoot hoops, swim and sometimes do weights. Our schedule keeps us pretty fit anyway.

Q: What's your message to Shout fans?

Brian: We hope to see you all soon!

Q: Cool! Does that mean you're planning to tour the UK during 2001?

Brian: Well, we're working on it so you should hear some news pretty soon. We really want to do some shows - and some parties too! So watch out, Backstreet's about!
