In the Jan 24th People Magazine, readers wrote in to complain about the BSB being chosen as having the worst of song. In Mailbag, they printed five letters (the last doesn't specifically mention the BSB, but I figured she was upset about them as well as others):

#1

I am absolutely shocked that Millenium, the BSB's sophomore album, was named one of the year's Worst of Song. Have you been living under a rock? The BSB are the hottest act out today. Every song on the album displays their superior talent and amazing vocal harmonies, proving their status as singers and artists. Whoever picked this for Worst of Song needs to be featured in a n article titled "Worst of Idiots"!

Wow! If I ever have an album out, I hope your magazine picks it as worst of the year. That would mean to me that 10 million people have purchased it.

By now I'm sure you've received many letters from angry BSB fans. Well, add me to your list! Doesn't a record-breaking album mean anything to you? Why is it so hard for media to give a "boy band" credit? Everyone from my 8-year-old cousin to my 50-year-old mother loves the BSB.
Megan Lynch, via e-mail

The BSB, who don't promote violence and use no obscenities, get slammed by a national magazine. go figure! I am a 41-year-old mother of two and I applaud the BSB because their music is so awesome that I can enjoy listening to it with my children. As a family, we went to their concert and had a total blast! I have to smile when I think the BSB are singing all the way to the bank!
Susan Lear, St. Cloud FL

Obviously you have no taste in music and are not up-to-date with what is hot and what is not. I will not be reading or purchasing your magazine for all of eternity.
Andrea Carlin, Eldridge IA
