Boy band the Backstreet Boys singer Brian Littrell took to youtube to let all his fans know that he has the swine flu.
The virus knows as H1N1 struck the singer, but don’t worry, the rest of the boys are ok – AJ Mclean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter are all fine.
In the video, Brian says:
“The Backstreet Boys had a great event set up for this afternoon… where we were gonna get the chance to mingle with some of our fans, as well as raise money for breast cancer awareness. Unfortunately, I was diagnosed with the swine flu yesterday and my job right now is to stay away from as many people as I can. The guys have been looked at by a doctor and they’re also on preventative medicine.”
The Backstreet Boys album ‘This Is Us’ is set to be released tomorrow, October 6, 2009.
