Episode notes
In this episode of 'The Lulu Podcast: Turning Points' Lulu chats with Backstreet Boys founding member AJ McLean - Alexander James McClean.
AJ talks to Lulu about the big turning points in his life - the moment he became a Backstreet Boy, 32 years ago; understanding who he really is - Alexander, not AJ; and the light-bulb moment that made him address his addiction.
He talks about celebrating 25 years of BSB's hit album 'Millennium'; why they are returning to Las Vegas to perform at Sphere; how he doesn't want to be like his dad; and the important part women play in his life.
Millennium 2.0 is available for preorder and presale now at backstreetboys.com.
