Johnny was one of my favorite skaters, hope he does well.

I think AJ was one of the better dancers from the group. He always stood out at concerts, like a natural performer. Brian was definitely the weakest dancer. Kevin was solid, better than Howie and Nick imo...he was a ballroom instructor before joining BSB. Would be cool to see him compete on DWTS, but highly unlikely.

Even though Nick didn't win the trophy, he lost weight and had a great time. Glad to see him have fun out there. And I had fun going off-topic here :D #sorrymods Like I mentioned in the other thread, glad that it is over (back to normal hobbies for me). Had a girl crush on Sharna and enjoyed her connections/moments with Nick. Good luck to the Aussie, perhaps we'll see her on tour with the boys someday. And to Nick, rest up and get back into the studio. I want to see a new BSB album!

I missed the final show but congrats to Bindi, Derek, and their fans. And congrats to Nick/Sharna and Alek/Lindsey for making it to the end. It was fun but glad it is over, back to the norms for me (sports and skyscrapers and oh normal sleeping schedule). I may or may not be back, some of you will be happy to see me gone but I enjoyed the time here despite the bickering here and there. Adios.

But Nick (and BSB) is independent, no longer with a major label (one of the reasons why they struggle to get radio airtime). They have been releasing stuff under their own label since parting with Jive, which I don't mind since they have more artistic freedom with their music.

Last night was the first time DWTS trended on my sports account #TeamSharnick Thought that was cool. When did Nick and Avril become BFF?

I was a bit underwhelmed by Nick's freestyle, could have been better. The jive was good though. Bind's freestyle was beautiful but wish they didn't put a picture of her dad at the end. I will spare myself from the "debate". Good night.

Translation: Fans go vote! lol

Heard samples of Nick's album on Amazon, LOVED IT, my type of music <3 #SurfRockMusic Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

Quoting a friend: Records are made to be broken!

Is this good or bad? Don't remember Nick's scores. Also Nick will sing on Tuesday http://www.justjaredjr.com/2015/11/20/get-the-scoop-on-the-dancing-with-the-stars-season-21-two-night-finale/

Get The Scoop On The 'Dancing With The Stars' Season 21 Two-Night Finale http://www.justjaredjr.com/2015/11/20/get-the-scoop-on-the-dancing-with-the-stars-season-21-two-night-finale/

As long as God continues to create little girls, there will always be boybands/groups. Yes I quoted the guy who stole millions from BSB, N'Sync, and countless others...he may be a crook but he is right. That Mayweather-Pacquiao fight was so over-hyped...can't believe they made that much money. I wonder what the N'Sync fans did with the extra cds. I remember reading about one fan who bought 200 copies :o And if it makes you happy, the more important stat imo is the overall sales record and Millennium outsold No Strings Attached even in the US (according to the Nielsen SoundScan data).

I might "face-palm" a lot and end up hurting myself. If he competes, the forum needs to enable emojis to protect me from physical pain.

Early in their career, Europe was their biggest market. But after they debuted their American album in 1997, the US became their main market. Majority of their concerts were/are in North America. However, their international fans seemed more passionate though. A breakdown of their last world tour (shows): North America: 82 Europe: 46 Asia: 30 South America: 10 Australia/New Zealand: 5 Middle East: 3 They had the most success globally in the 90s/early 2000s followed by Westlife (popular everywhere except the USA). N'Sync was big in America, but wasn't as popular internationally. Not sure if BSB still holds the 1st week international sale record, but their Black&Blue album sold 5 million copies. Shortly afterwards, they went into hiatus and their fanbase took a dive. N'Sync holds the American 1st week sale record at 2+ million copies. Their popularity is not what it was, far from their $300+ millions grossed tour in 2001 (though they never did finish that tour because of 911 attack) but they are doing pretty decent for a bunch of guys in their 30s/40s. Their fans are not teenagers anymore so I don't think they are really into these types of stuff (voting)...majority of them are moms and are busy.

AJ said that Nick will take a break after DWTS before they go into the studio so I doubt he is on the tour.

Soooo I per-ordered Nick's new album today (not sure what to expect). But tbh, I'm more excited about AJ's new solo project especially after hearing the live acoustic version of his new single...that man can sing (it helps to have a great voice). I read that it was Sharna who asked AJ to compete in DWTS and he might do it next fall. After the last couple of weeks, not sure if I can handle another season #toomuchdrama

I'm fine with anyone winning, well maybe except Alek. But if he wins, congrats to him.

Since it won't happen, I'll use my imagination...Nick and Sharna ballroom to "Make Believe" and wear 16th century fashion, Romeo and Juliet style. The beauty of imagination <3

Sob.

Missed half of the show yesterday, but glad that Nick made it to the final. Honestly, I'm ready for the end... Anyway, if Nick and Sharna were to use BSB stuff in the final, what song would you like to see them do? Personally, I would like to see a more recent BSB material. I think "Trust Me" would be a nice song for a partner dance...it is a fun good feel song that would appeal to the older crowd. Different than their early music. If Sharna wants to stick to Nick's strength and recreate the concert atmosphere again, "Straight Through My Heart" would be a good choice. Or going wayyyyy back, "Get Another Boyfriend", anyone? Secretly, I want them to do a dark and dramatic power ballad freestyle, perhaps "Shattered"...maybe too depressing? But I have a feeling that if they are going the BSB route, it will most likely be "I Want It That Way" or "Larger Than Life". No explanations needed. So what do you guys think, what BSB song would you like to see them use?

My apologies for making you put in the extra work. I will ban myself until Monday! Have a good weekend.

I have no problems with people voting to show their displeasure. Ignoring and pretending that the shenanigans don't exist are worse imo. If people want to express their dissatisfaction through votes, then they should be allowed to. Changes don't happen by staying quiet.

And regarding votes. I might be wrong but ideally it makes sense for producers to put performers who pull in votes last or close to last. They are the ones viewers/voters typically want to see and are willing to sit thru the show for (hello ratings). The law of average or observation could give hints.
