Kevin Richardson leaves the Backstreet Boys

Kevin Richardson announced on the official Backstreet Boys site that he's leaving the Backstreet Boys to pursue other interests, saying:
“After 13 years of what can only be described as a dream come true, I have decided that it is time to leave the Backstreet Boys. It was a very tough decision for me but one that was necessary in order to move on with the next chapter of my life. Howard, Brian, Alex and Nick will always be my little brothers and have my utmost love and support. I would like to thank the Backstreet fans for all the beautiful memories we have shared together and look forward to including you in the next phase of my life. I wish my brothers continued success and look forward to their new album.”
If any of you knew the Backstreet Boys were still together I want you to leave the site now and go play with a kodiak bear after rolling around in some steaks. Because I can't live in a world where the Backstreet Boys still have fans. And since there's no way I'm ending my own life the only other option is to end theirs. All eight of them.

Wait... I thought these fucks all broke up with each other like 10 years ago when it wasn't cool to be in a gay band anymore?

He is around 44 years old. A bit old to be in a boy band.

Strange. I thought they changed their name to the 'Backdoor Boys' about six years back.

@ Geno - 35, but still... way too old.

I would have thought that they would have matured a little more by now, watched their videos, and committed hari-kari(sp?).

who are the backstreet boys?
13. Posted by Jacq on June 26, 2006 1:53 PM
I would have thought that at least ONE of them would be a Backstreet Man by now. This story soars to new levels of crapdom. I cannot find anything even remotely funny in this. Aren't we all BSB joked out?
Now Harry Carey - THAT'S funny! If the moon was made of cheese, would 'ya eat it, Norm?

So, what exactly, are these "other interests" Kevin aims to pursue?
Lord knows he will never, ever have a solo career. People would confuse him far too much with Peter Gallagher.

I love how the Superficial guy says to play with a bear if you knew they were still together.
Yet... he's the one trolling the Backstreet Boys website for information.
Uh oh uh oh oh, wait that was New Kids on the Block.
Shit, excuse me, I need to go buy some steaks and a plane ticket to Alaska.
TCLTC

The BSB's did have massive amounts of 13 year-old hispanic kid trying to grow a moustache going on. Except never enough to cover an upper lip. Cruisin'? Molestache?

#16 - It's ok. Please just buy a ticket for Big Daddy Cool.
20. Posted by dominocat on June 26, 2006 1:58 PM
what #1 said. I never realised they were still together. Maybe it's a publicity thing -
manager - "Kev, there's been nothing in the press about the BSS for years. Declare that you're leaving, and we'll pay you $1000"
...or something

"Leaving to pursue other interests?" Hmmmmmmmmm......like what? Has the money ran out and he needs to get a job now...
Who cares they sucked anyway.
Howard Stern's version of the "Backside Boys" were better.

Isn't this a lot like asking to leave the boat after it has already sank?
32. Posted by IFuckingHateYou on June 26, 2006 2:47 PM
The real reason he left the band, in his own words: "I'm full. I thik if I swallow any more cum, I'll end up like Rod Stewart and I don't want to be like Rod Fucking Stewart."
33. Posted by Vas Deferens on June 26, 2006 2:55 PM
Why does Kevin Richardson look like he has AIDS?
Now that he quit the Backside Boys, he can pursue other interests....like joining Hanson or being Nick Lachey's cabana boy.

Everybody knows the Backstreet Boys were constructed using models from clippings out of Tiger Beat, and sewn together from medical waste found in a dumpster behind a children's clinic in Beijing. The communist Chinese used a secret radiation machine to give "life" to these "Atomic Singing Grownup-Children" in the hopes of disrupting the United States economy enough to be able to take our country over, impregnate our women with their Oriental seed, sexually assault our National monuments, and overcrowd our parks system with small two-stroke vehicles.

Maybe he just realized that nowadays you don't have to actually DO ANYTHING to be famous. You just have to show up to events and act like a complete asshole. Like Paris.

The sad thing is, if you read the entire article...they are going into the studio to make a NEW CD!!!! Shit, I thought if Tom Cruise ever managed to impregnate a woman that the world would end. WEll come on world, if you're gonna end, do it before those turds put out another CD.
Oh, and Tom Cruise impregnating a woman is surprising becuase he LOVES the cock.

Oh and jane probably doesn't know who the backstreet boys are. But she does know who the backsteret boys are. And by backsteret, I mean that the body doubles who travelled to san bernadino and volunteered to to play in porn/ ghetto country for the backstreet boys. So they wouldn't get shot or nothin.

To have any type of career now all he needs is to put on a pair of glasses and he can possible make a career as a Groucho impersonator.

It's been rumored that the Backstreet Boys, O Town, 98 Degrees, and the remaning N Sync boys will be forming a supergroup called Who the Fuck Gives a Shit. WFGS is currently in the studio working on their debut CD reportedly entitled "Please Buy a Ticket and Shoot Me On Stage" and is in talks to expand their marketing prowess to dildos and cockrings. The group's publicists could not be reached for comment, but was overheard mumbling angrily to himself "TCLTC".

Lamebananas- Why don't you shut your fucking mouth and let your little sis/bro on for her/his computer time now since you're so educated on Backstreet Boys History? Oh, and if you're wondering why EVERYONE HATES YOU, you dumb ass retard, it's because YOU START WITH EVERYONE when no one pays attention to your feeble attempts at posting. My advice for you: Keep TRYING to post something funny and MAYBE JUST MAYBE it will happen one day and someone will give you a shout out- That's if you don't wreck yourself by talking shit about people.... as always. Now go sign on as Megan Harris, because we love her sooo much more than you... that butchy butchy dyke crushes your lame-banana ass.

I could never understand who actually liked the Backdoor Boys, N'Stync and 98 Disease anyhow. The guys all wanted to beat their pansy asses and the girls were all way too young to fuck them. What gives?

@55 Well they couldn't fuck those girls, but they weren't above raking in the moola that those girls' parents gave them.

They were the male equivalent to the Fembots. That's the only explanation I can give.

And the rest of the members have no career, one dated Paris Hilton, one is bald now and they all suck, except that Brian dude, he seems alright. What's your point? You shouldn't even pay any attention to this "story." Come on superficial. You are better than that. I'm sure there was something that Paris Hilton did today that you could have reported on. Or Lindsay Lohan probably got in another fight or something. Come on now...

Dateline: North Atlantic, April 14, 1912.
Millionaire socialite J.J. Astor has just announced, through his agent, that he is "leaving" the luxury steamship "R.M.S. Titanic". Per his agent, Mr. Astor described the maiden voyage of said vessel as quote "a magnificent vision realized" unquote, but that the decision was necessary in order to have a further chapter to his life. Mr. Astor has reportedly expressed kind sentiments to crew and passengers remaining upon the vessel, and vowing, peradventure, to obtain seating in a lifeboat. Godspeed, Mr. Astor.
