Much admired Backstreet Boys are, without any doubt, one of the major names in music industry. The band has been treating their fans with amazing music and deep lyrics for many years now. This time, however, they will be treating their fans with more than music. The band has announced their own restaurant. Nick Carter, one of the Backstreet Boys, announced on his social media regarding their restaurant, “When you have two boys from Kentucky and three from Florida, I promise you that it’s gonna be finger licking good.” The news comes on the heels of Carter telling a food blog they are looking for a partner in Mexico to start making their own tequila. The American band, which also includes Kevin Richardson, was formed in 1993 and has since delivered hit numbers like I Want It That Way, Incomplete and Quit Playing Games. But now, the band will be combining music with food. If you love nostalgic boy bands and damn good food, we’ve got news that will make you want to break into a choreographed dance number. The Backstreet Boys are reportedly continuing their quest to take over their fans, going from creating iconic music and selling their own brand of tequila to now opening a barbecue joint. According to filed paperwork acquired by TMZ, the band plans to open a restaurant called Backstreet Barbecue. Backstreet Boys aren’t the first boy band icons to break into the world of comfort food; *NSYNC’s Joey Fatone runs a successful Florida food truck called Fat One’s Hot Dogs and Italian Ice, so it seems like a solid business move for the Backstreet Boys to follow in a similar venture. The possibilities for Backstreet Barbecue are endless: fans are already expecting too much from their all time favorites! Published in Daily Times, March 20th 2018.
