BTS is on the road to great success, breaking records and attracting an increasing number of fans every day. Therefore, it is no surprise that many new generation Kpop idols take them as their ideal models and join the fan club.
However, what is more surprising is that the list of celebrities who are ARMYs even includes many famous US-UK artists. Recently, a member of the legendary US boy band revealed how big a fan he is of Jungkook.
Discover his name below and I bet many people are his fans:
"Idol of idols" has long been given to BTS. The 7 members of the group are not only role models for many Kpop artists but they are also "idols" of many US-UK stars. Many times, US-UK artists have publicly confessed their feelings and even expressed their desire to collaborate with the HYBE boy group.
From Cardi B, Taylor Swift, Shawn Mendes, Hasley, Chris Martin,... to even Beyonce, they can't resist the charm of these Kpop superstars. Recently, ARMYs became excited when members of the legendary boy band Backstreet Boys also soon joined BTS's fan club. One of them even revealed that his favorite member in the group is Jungkook.
Specifically, Howie Dorough and AJ McLean of the αмєяι¢αn boy band recently attended the Billboard No.1 party. On the red carpet, an interviewer asked, “Who has been, for you guys, the No.1 artist for 2024?”. Initially, AJ revealed that thanks to his children, he is now a certified Taylor Swift fan, a Swiftie.
However, he did not forget to add an important piece of information. He added, “You know what? There are so many great new artists, but I was a big, big fan of Jungkook.” His statement has been met with a huge response from fans all over the world. Even the Biggest Boy Bands of All Time legend is in love with the Golden Maknae.
This isn’t the first time the Backstreet Boys have revealed that they love BTS and have heaped praise on the group. In 2018, Nick Carter revealed that they were big fans of the K-Pop group and learned a lot about BTS through their mutual friend and collaborator, Steve Aoki.
In 2018, BTS and the Backstreet Boys met that same year at the Westwood One Backstage event ahead of the Billboard Music Awards. Notably, the group also paid tribute to BTS when they mentioned them on Kelly Clarkson’s show in 2022. They talked about their concert and Nick bragged that they’re still doing choreography but then he cautioned “not like BTS though”.
Now, fans are excited as AJ McLean has reiterated:
- when the artist is genuine his talent will always be appreciated and respected, jungkook collecting those praises from the Big big artists like pokémon and we love to see it. go higher, jungkook!
- Scammys crying in the corner. Jungkook should have nominated for Best New Artist. With one debut album he created a wave
