In this much anticipated episode, I share the story of my summer adventures to see the Backstreet Boys Millennium 2.0 residency at Sphere Las Vegas! Not only did I see their show 3 times, but I also made it to Howie Eatz (twice) AND Nick Carter's listening party for his newest album "Love Life Tragedy." There was a lot of music, dancing, glitter, and a Backstreet Boy kiss that I'll never forget.

I was so honored to sit down with Alexander James McLean of the Backstreet Boys for this relaxed, impromptu conversation. Alex joined me and my guest co-host, Sophia, to chat about the inspiration behind his mysterious new single and music video, as well as the challenges and excitement of planning his first large-scale solo tour while still balancing Backstreet Boy duties.

A sincere thank you to Alex for sharing his time with us. It was a privilege to hear firsthand about the artistry, passion, and incredible work ethic behind his upcoming projects.

I got flowers from AJ McLean! Little did Alex know he was delivering more than roses. He was delivering confirmation that he was everything I believed he was, and more. Join me as I revisit the day Alex showed up at my front door and reflect on the decades-long journey that would lead us to that unforgettable moment.
