D.J.: Ladies and gentlemen, Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys, what's up Nicky?

Jane: You can call me ... mom.

D.J.: Mom, I like that! Now wait a minute, who's riding who's coat-tails here? You have a new book called The Heart and Soul of Nick Carter. Now are you taking advantage of your boy here?

Jane: Actually, I'm just trying to share who he is with his fans.

D.J.: Well thats good cause they all want to know. We've been finding that out. How does it feel to have a heart throb baby? Do you fight to keep the girls away?

Jane: I'm just really proud of him. I think he's pretty well balanced. He knows the difference between right and wrong and to have him be a heart throb, it gives me a lot of pride to know that so many people and so many girls admire him.

Nick: (still laughing) I can't do it.

D.J: Okay, I read something in the book that, Nicky you were into tap dancing when the other guys were into sports, is that true?

Nick: Yeah I was into tap dancing. I really couldn't do it that well. Really that's my weakest point, was probably dancing, period. I really wasn't that well of a dancer.

D.J.: But that was the 1st quote we heard, was while all the other boys were playing baseball, he was tap dancing. Mom, your making him look like a wuss.

(All laughing)

Jane: Well it was hard on him at the time because he wanted to do it. He just wanted to be this performer, but he got ridiculed, so he had to keep everything secret from his friends.

D.J: Do we hear much about the dad in this book, or where is the dad? I'm sorry if I don't know, but we don't hear much about him

Jane: Well that's cause he's...

Nick: He's a man undercover.

Jane: That's cause he likes to lay low.

D.J: But you still are married?

Jane: Oh yeah!

D.J: So there's a good nuclear family. Know wonder he's got such a good up bringing

Jane: Been married for 19 years.

D.J: Was he a bad boy? Did he get in trouble at all?

Nick: Yeah I did.

Jane: Yeah he did.

Nick: Listen out of 365 days in the year, I was grounded probably 363 days.

D.J: Do you remember 1 specific incident you could think of?

Nick:Well, I mean numerous amount of things. I used to sneak in the fridge. She used to get mad at me all the time cause I would play Nintendo for ridiculously long!

Jane: He was addicted to it.
