The Backstreet Boys are back with some major announcements for their fans.
« When this group started 26 years ago — and through all the highs and lows of our career — we’ve had to learn it wasn’t about us as individuals but about what’s best for the group, » Howie D said in a statement obtained by CNN.
Brian Littrell echoed his bandmate’s excitement.
« The journey is ongoing with us and there is so much left to do, » he said. « We’re living the next chapter that hasn’t been told yet, and that’s exciting. »
