There are a number of different articles and reviews in this bulletin.

Shania Twain had no fun at a recent Florida taping she did with the Backstreet Boys to be included in her March TV special. Most in the audience were teenage girls, there only for the Boys. Their "love" signs got in the way of Backstreet-less numbers. Their shrieks, though the Boys were nowhere in sight, were heard over Twain's singing. But she really got ticked when, while dueting with the Boys on her latest, hit, "From This Moment On," the guys had trouble with the high notes. Then she got into tantrum mode when told she'd have to redo another number because of tech troubles. To make a bad scene worse, half her audience left when the Boys finished.

I'm from Vancouver, B.C. and one of the dj's on the radio station Z95.3FM, gave us some behind the scenes news from the Shania Twain tv special taping. She said that the Boys do a duet with Shania for "From This Moment" (pretty sure that's what it's called). And apparently, during rehearsals, the Boys had some trouble hitting some of the high notes, and Shania totally freaked out on them; she got really upset.

I was at the Shania Twain taping for the CBS Special in Miami at Bayfront Park and I just wanted to let you guys know how it went. (Oh yeah, if you wanna see the guys on TV, it'll be aired on March 3 at 8PM on CBS) Well, the Backstreet Boys were there of course! And they looked SOOOOOO GORGEOUS!!!! Me and my best friend were there at 6:00am because it was general admission so it was like first come first serve kinda thing. And believe me, it wasn't fun waiting that long and being shoved around and stuff.

Well, we were like the 5th people there so we were near the front of the line, which is good! They opened the gates at 4:00pm, so we were waiting for a LONG time. In the morning, me and these two other girls wanted to check out the hotels near by and back of the stage (not backstage, I wish!) We checked out the Hyatt Hotel first and we were sure that they weren't there because some of the employees told us, and they didn't really look like liars either. Then we went to this other hotel that was RIGHT next to Bayfront Park, (which we should have checked first) it's where the little concert was being held (oh yeah, it wasn't an indoor concert, it was an outdoor one.)

Well, it was called something "Continental." I forgot the name but it was a VERY nice hotel (hey, it's the Backstreet Boys! Of course they can afford one!) We went in and looked around and we were SURE they were there because there were event staffs, securities, and bodyguards everywhere. But we didn't go up to the rooms or anything like that because we were kinda scared. If I'm not mistaken, they were in the penthouse suite. One of the securities we were talking to, told us. He also said that AJ, Nick, and Brian were really nice because they went up to him a day before the concert (when they were doing their sound check) and were really polite and talking to him like telling him to get ready for a VERY crazy concert and stuff like that! Cool, huh?!? (And boy were they right!)

Then we left and checked around the place they were having the concert in (Bayfront Park.) We met a lot of securities and talked to them for a while but none of them knew who the heck the Backstreet Boys were. My only expression to them was "How could you not know them???" Oh well, after a while we got kicked out by this stupid supervisor! He said how we had to leave because the area has now become a private area or something like that. So we left and went back in line. (And we didn't see ANY Backstreet Boy either!! That sucked!) We waited in line for like 9 HOURS in the HOT sun!! And trust me Miami is HOT AS HELL!!!

Then it was FINALLY time to open the gates (at 4:00pm.) Well, actually they tried to organize everyone by getting them in a line or something. It was such a hassle because they had people skipping and pushing. And those people who did skip got back, WAY back, in line. (Now that wasn't fair cause those people just came and they think they can come out of nowhere and just get in front of people who were there till 5:00am. Gosh, people these days!) Oh well, so when the securities finally opened the gates EVERYONE was running and pushing. Me and my best friend were still together. It was a miracle, with all those people running and stuff. We made it to like the 3rd row or something but these people in front of us started to leave because I guess their mother got those special passes for them so me and my best friend made it to the front in the far right side (there was like a BIG gap between the stage and the people with tickets. I guess only people with special passes could enter that area. DARN! I wish I was there!)

Well the guys were there and they did a little song for everyone. All the people were screaming. The guys were in their regular clothes, and no make-up either. And they were still very GORGEOUS! They sang "All I Have To Give" and did it soo well too! I was really excited because that was my first time seeing the guys, in person! Then after Shania did like 2 songs and had to do it again, the guys came out in these nice clothes and they sang "All Have To Give" on stools. I was screaming REALLY loud for AJ because he's like my favorite and stuff. He looked like once and waved. And I will always remember that moment for the rest of my life! He looked soooooooooooo FINE!! =)

Then Shaina Twain came out in this really pretty blue dress, I think she's worn that somewhere before but I couldn't remember where. The guys were really funny, they said she looked like a mermaid and Brian was jumping up and down making fish faces. Totally cute! She sang "From This Moment On" with the guys and they had to do that like 5 times because I guess some director didn't like it. But nobody mind because, hey, it's the Backstreet Boys!!

Well after that they left and me and my best friend decided to leave the thing and see if we can try to catch them and stuff. We went to the back of the stage thingy, and we saw like a couple of girls there (they also said how the guys left and they think they saw AJ's, Brian's, and I think Nick's girlfriend in the car.) Well, that was my full day at the Shania Twain taping. Even if I didn't get to meet the guys personally, I had a blast! And I would do ALL that again just for the Backstreet Boys because they're the BEST! Can't wait till that Charity Game on Nick's birthday. I'm sure it's gonna be a blast!!
