Pop Life: I'm in a Boyband

What are the secrets of the boyband? How are they formed? Boyband members and industry insiders past and present share the tips of the trade and what it's really like to be in a mega-successful all male pop group.



Part three may be blocked on copyright grounds for some people. (Thank You, channel 5). It seems to be blocked only 
in the UK, so iplayer here

Here is the URL to part three for the rest of you.







NB: If your faves are in the tags, they get at least a mention in this but the themes discussed are relevant for pretty much any boyband you care to think of. :)

I really wish some BSB groupies would come out a write a book on their experience, because some stories are fucking amazing!
nicenicegirl 26th-Feb-2012 08:28 pm (UTC)
i don't think i've had the pleasure of hearing any BSB groupie stories tbh...
janeeyre 26th-Feb-2012 10:23 pm (UTC)
like two bsb having a threesome with a girl, blow job in the tour bus while the gf is out shopping, cheating is HUGE!, a crew member passed out while a groupie is fucking him, one bsb member taking a couple of girls up to another bsb member room and he chooses..so many stories tbh...
invisible_cunt 26th-Feb-2012 08:31 pm (UTC)

je_blagues 26th-Feb-2012 08:36 pm (UTC)

TLC is judging you rn.
megisthesex Re: boyband suck 26th-Feb-2012 08:29 pm (UTC)
same.

when i was 7 i had this reoccuring dream that the spice girls and bsb had to trade places for a day. the spice girls (naturally) found the whole situation easy to cope with but the dudes from bsb couldn't handle the life of a spice girl.


.....i'm still embarrassed by this dream 15 years later.

TLC, Spice Girls, SWV, and Envogue are my favs
lfruit Re: boyband suck 26th-Feb-2012 08:35 pm (UTC)
i remember crying before i went to sleep bc my mom couldn't afford to get me tickets to see them when i was younger.

needless to say, seeing them during their reunion tour was a lot of fun.

The documentary kind of touches on what happens when the pressure gets to much.
Basically Robbie Williams
tammyinlalaland 26th-Feb-2012 08:23 pm (UTC)
Someone just sent me this... sounds interesting
brucelynn 26th-Feb-2012 08:24 pm (UTC)
INB4 people start hijacking this post with dumb k-pop boybands

New Edition, Jackson 5, Boyz II Men, and Backstreet Boys ftmfw!!!
filmfreakfranco 26th-Feb-2012 08:27 pm (UTC)
oh, korean pop boybands don't count as 'real boybands'??
tankmachine 26th-Feb-2012 08:28 pm (UTC)

mcpofife 26th-Feb-2012 10:37 pm (UTC)

Oh Siwon, you irl Disney prince<3
x_butterfly19_x 26th-Feb-2012 08:50 pm (UTC)
No problem, I hoped it might be relevant to people's interests :)

(I guess what they're talking could also covers K-Pop to an extent although I'm not very familiar with the genre)
lillyluna 26th-Feb-2012 09:18 pm (UTC)
I lived in Korea, I have such hatred for KPop bands, ugh.
in_styles 27th-Feb-2012 04:12 am (UTC)
IAwtc plus Blackstreet!
megisthesex 26th-Feb-2012 08:26 pm (UTC)
i love the juxtaposition of the two sets of screencaps......check it boys, the future that awaits you.
x_butterfly19_x 26th-Feb-2012 08:52 pm (UTC)
lol. Blue are rerecording new material.

They also did Eurovision. Lawd, I'm imagining One Direction at the ESC. Maybe Jedward have set a trend for former X Factor competitors
brucelynn 26th-Feb-2012 08:30 pm (UTC)
Most do but not all
boku_no_hanabi 28th-Feb-2012 08:50 am (UTC)

I used to love boy bands, but I think I'm too old for them now.

I was all about Nsync as a teenager...and when I was really young, I was all about NKOTB.

below-average mediocrity and auto-tune don't have any say so.
