Boy band roundup: Backstreet Boys switch labels

Pretend it’s 1999 and you might actually care about the next tidbit.

The Backstreet Boys are switching music labels!

Nick Carter and the posse — sans Kevin Richardson — posted a note on their official website titled “Freedom” that reads:

“So the news is out! The Backstreet Boys are no longer signed to long-time record label Jive Records. The amicable split is very exciting for the group. 'This is the best thing, at the best time that could have ever happened for us,' says Brian Littrell. 'We are confident in the future of our band, and are looking forward to the new things to come. 2011 is going to be a great year for us!’ KTBSPA.” (That’s short for ‘Keep the Backstreet Pride Alive,’ for those not familiar with retro boy-band lingo.)

BSB (hey, we here at Ministry of Gossip know our acronyms!) kick off their concert tour Saturday at Miami’s American Airlines Arena - Waterfront Theatre.
