Biography[]
Retrieved from abc.com
For 27 years, AJ McLean has been a part of the Backstreet Boys, one of the most successful groups in music history. He may be a legend of the '90s boyband era, but McLean has always been a cultural vanguard. A multiple award-winning and Grammy-nominated performer, McLean has continually delivered the finest pop music one has to offer, tightly crafted songs, floor-shaking rhythms and unmistakable harmonies, making him one of pop's most influential performers. Along with the other members, McLean received a star on the legendary Hollywood Walk of Fame, performed for the president of the United States, and made an unforgettable appearance in the Seth Rogen hit film This Is the End, which earned the guys a Best Musical Moment award at the MTV Movie Awards. McLean's work with BSB has gone gold and platinum in 46 countries; the group's first nine albums all debuted in the Top 10 on the Billboard Top 100, and the Los Angeles Times recently raved "the Boys' talents … will survive almost any pop-culture apocalypse".
