BSB SUPPORTS FELLOW MUSICIANS IN BP BOYCOTT

BACKSTREET BOYS SUPPORT FELLOW MUSICIANS IN BP BOYCOTT

The Backstreet Boys join popular hard rock band KORN to boycott the purchase of BP oil. Currently on a 35+ North American tour in support of their new album, THIS IS US, BSB promises to embark on a BP free tour.

"I'm devastated by what I've seen first hand and on the news" says Nick Carter. "I've always been a marine activist and seeing pictures of oil-covered animals breaks my heart."

"We just played Biloxi last week and I have to tell you people are really worried down there. This boycott is about making a statement, letting people know how we feel and to stand for something," states Brian Littrell.

Both Backstreet Boys and KORN urge other touring musicians to join their boycott.
