Recently, AJ McLean from the Backstreet Boys confessed what the real reason behind the band’s hiatus is, making it clear that it was not for any kind of conflict between any of the members; on the contrary, they are on excellent terms, even as assured: “We have our trip to Cancun next April“.
AJ McLean confessed to The Mirror that the reason is very simple: “We are taking a year off; after decades of success, this is something we all deserve“. And he also revealed, “Don’t worry, we still have a couple of unique things to come“.
The singer states that the intention to take a break to pursue individual projects was a joint decision. He also spoke a little about the band’s Christmas plans: “Last year we released our first Backstreet Boys Christmas album, and this year it will be re-released again, as we have never done one in our entire career“.
AJ has been making remarkable changes in his life. As he previously confessed to Page Six that he has been completely sober for over 2 years, he also revealed, “I have spent 10 weeks attending an intensive program to deal with past trauma, PTSD, depression, and anxiety“, which indicates that he is taking his mental health very seriously.
