Backstreet Boys Breakup Rumors Re-Emerge

US Weekly reports rumors are swirling that the Backstreet Boys are on the verge of breaking up. An unnamed music executive told them, “Each of the members wants to do a solo album.” Also figuring in the mix is the inability to get a hit off Black & Blue, combine that with dates the group had to cancel because of A.J.’s substance abuse, and further cancellations due to poor ticket sales, leaves a combination that could spell doom for the group, though they’ve all gone on record saying otherwise planning to record a new album next February.
