Just when it looked like we could all party like it's 1999—Backstreet Boys' new album This Is Us was released today, along with Britney Spears' Max Martin-produced new jam, "3"—BSB member Brian Littrell has come down with swine flu.
All promo appearances by the Boys have been cancelled as of now. Here's a YouTube video Brian made, wherein he apologizes to fans:Ick! Poor guy. Brian always gets the bum end of illnesses, no? Backstreet Boys were due to perform on the CBS Early Show this morning.
According to a press release issued yesterday, the other members of the band have seen a doctor and are not showing any symptoms. They'd all just returned to the states from Tokyo.
