Boy Band Mania


   by CootiePie
 Guest Writer

N Sync, Backstreet Boys, 98 degrees, 2gether, Five, Westlife... How many boy bands are there?!? T-shirts, books, magazine covers... these boys are everywhere!

I interviewed HG123, Candy1989, Elmo11, luv4justn & moonbaby, and asked them what they thought about this Boy Band obsession, and this is what they had to say...

My first interviewee was HG123.

Me: What is your opinion of Boy Bands?
HG123: I like most of them but they aren't as cute as some girls think.
Me: Do you think that this sudden obsession with them is unfair to artists who write and/or play their own music?
HG123: No, those artists can do whatever they want, and if they want to, they could do the same thing as Boy Bands. I like Boy Bands better.
Me: Just for the record, which Boy Band is your favorite?
HG123: I like N Sync. I love Justin. He's hot :) LoL
Me: If you could banish one Boy Band off the face of the earth, and send them into Never-Never Land, where they would never be seen or heard again, would you? And if so, which one?
HG123: I wouldn't get rid of any of them.
Me: Thank you for your time.
HG123: You're welcome.

My next interviewee was Candy1989.

Me: What do you think of this Boy Band craze? Do you like Boy Bands?
Candy1989: I think it's great! I love 2gether, I am listening to their CD right now. I also like N Sync.
Me: Do you think that this sudden Boy Band craze is unfair to those artists who write and/or play their own music?
Candy1989: Yeah kinda, it's every Boy Band for themselves. People don't like those types of bands that produce their own music as much as pop bands.
Me: If you could banish one Boy Band off the face of the earth, and send them into Never-Never Land where they would never be seen or heard again, would you? And if so, which one?
Candy1989: Yup, and it would be the Backstreet Boys.
Me: Thank you for your time.
Candy1989: Anytime.

Next I interviewed Elmo11.

Me: What do you think of Boy Bands? What do you think of this obsession with them?
Elmo11: Boy Bands are just a group of guys that can't sing. They aren't gods or anything.
Me: Do you have a favorite Boy Band?
Elmo11: My favorite band is N Sync.
Me: Thank you.

Next came luv4justn.

Me: Which one of the Boy Bands do you like the most?
luv4justn: I think that N Sync is the best band ever.
Me: Do you think that this sudden Boy Band craze is unfair to artists who write and/or play their own music?
luv4justn: I think it's unfair, but who cares?
Me: If you could banish one Boy Band off the face of the earth, and send them into Never-Never Land, where they would never been seen or heard from again, would you? And if so, which one?
luv4justn: I would get rid of the Backstreet Boys 'cause they're not god and they're old.
Me: Thanks.

My last interviewee was moonbaby.

Me: Do you like Boy Bands?
moonbaby: Yes, I like Boy Bands.
Me: What do you think of this Boy Band craze?
moonbaby: What I think??? Hmmm... I dunno... I don't really care.
Me: Do you think that this obsession with them is unfair to those artists who write and/or play their own music?
moonbaby: No.
Me: For the record, which Boy Band is your favorite?
moonbaby: Five or Westlife.
Me: If you could banish one Boy Band off the face of the earth, and send them into Never-Never Land, where they would never be heard or seen from again, would you? And if so, which one?
moonbaby: Yes! Backstreet Boys!
Me: Thank you for your time.

As you can tell by these interviews, some people like Boy Bands a lot, and some others don't like them as much. What do you think? This is CootiePie saying Bye Bye. :)

P.S. I also wanted to get a guy's point of view on this subject, but the responses I got from the guys I interviewed are not appropriate to view. :)
