BSB Mentionings in YM Magazine
Source: ym magazine and bsbfan.net
In the April 2001 issue of YM Magazine, with O-Town on the cover, there is an article about TRL. It is basically a list of 10 different artists who are on TRL often. The article begins on page 83. The video for "Shape Of My Heart" was chosen to be part of the feature and this is what it said:
Video: "Shape Of My Heart"
Days At #1: 50
Carson's Dish: "When we started, Backstreet was clearly the biggest act. There was no 'Nsync, Britney, or Eminem. I feel like the older brother who's gotten to see their little brothers grow up. BSB is more vocal and business oriented than 'Nsync, but none of them have attitudes. This video, which in 2000 spent the most days at number one, is just a testament of how much their fans love them."
*Rankings based on MTV's TRL Top 40 of 2000. BSB's "Shape Of My Heart" stayed at number one into 2001, spending a total of 61 days there, the most days at number one for a video ever.

Aaron Carter is also featured in this issue, on page 110:
Aaron Carter
With Aaron's slick pop voice, hip-hoppy moves, and irresistable blond, boyish, good looks, you might be fooled into thinking he's a younger brother of one of the Backstreet Boys. Oh wait -- he is (Nick's). His first album, Aaron's Party (Come Get It), went platinum in only a few months. Does anyone else feel like they should change their last name to Carter?
AGE: 13
HOME BASE: Los Angeles
SIGN HE'S AN AMERICAN BADASS IN TRAINING: He beat up the school bully. "He used to pick on me and take my money. They say if you beat up a bully you live happily ever after, so I knocked him right out and he never messed with me again."
HE'S DEFINITELY BETTER THAN NICK AT: Basketball. "He's horrible. He tries to make a layup and it goes like fifty feet off the court!"
HE'S NOT BETTER THAN NICK AT: Singing. "Nick's just really talented, but everyone says my voice is getting more like his."
AMERICA'S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS WOULD LOVE TO GET THEIR HANDS ON: "The video my mom has of me and my twin sister, Angel, jumping on the couch singing 'Twist and Shout'."
HIS MOM WOULD DIE IF SHE KNEW: He rides dirtbikes. "I always get injured, but I just tell her I fell while skateboarding or something."
WHY SODA COMPANIES WOULD LOVE HIM (OR NOT?): Dr. Pepper and 7-Up are his hotel aliases.
HE'D DIE TO DO A DUET WITH: Christina Aguilera. "But I probably wouldn't get any work done!"
WHY HE'D BE ABLE TO SHOW HER WHAT A GIRL WANTS: "I'm smooth like that."
HE'LL NEVER GET WHY GIRLS: "Have mood changes every other hour."
WE'LL NEVER GET WHY GUYS: Always think that!
