Backstreet Boys Thank Fans On 27th Anniversary; Get A Special Thank You

The Backstreet Boys marked their 27th anniversary on Monday with a special Instagram post shouting out their fans for all their support over the years.

“Today marks 27 years of the Backstreet Boys. On Apr 20, 1993 we were all so young and standing together for the first time as a group. We did not know you yet. Each one of you were but a dream to us,” the group captioned a photo of the five of them years ago, standing on a beach in the surf. The group added the hashtag #KTBSPA, which stands for “Keep the Backstreet Pride Alive.”

Several fans shared adoring messages for the band in the comments section of the post. One wrote, “Thank you for all your love through all this years!!! Love U !!! KTBSPA!!! ❤❤❤❤.”

Meanwhile, the Backstreet Boys made a virtual visit to the Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C., Monday; to thank them, healthcare workers from all different departments of the hospital surprised the group with a performance to the BSB hit “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back).” They showed off their best dance moves to the tune while wearing protective face masks. During their virtual visit, set up by the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, the band members got to chat with some of the hospital’s young patients.
