Bored Office Workers Perform a Backstreet Boys Hit

Five office workers record themselves singing along to "I Want It That Way" by the Backstreet Boys. Who wouldn't want to work in this office?

Backstreet's Back...AGAIN

Nick, AJ, Howie, and Brian are apparently going back into the studio to record their sixth studio album. We'll update you as soon as more information is available!

Nick Carter's Mom Arrested

The Carter's are a pretty crazy family. Backstreet Boy Nick Carter has got to go bail his mom out of jail.

Nick Carter's mother was arrested yesterday, allegedly over a really nasty divorce hearing. Here's the mugshot!

Jane Carter, aka Jane Holcomb, was divorced from a guy named John Holcomb. There are still some legal odds and ends to deal with, including an allegation that she trashed the house they once shared.

After filing legal papers, Jane was supposed to appear in court and didn't. A Florida judge wants her butt in jail for not appearing and he's ordered a bench warrant. She was picked up today in Sumter County at a cemetery where the construction company she works for was doing a project. Geez. Classy. Her son is a Backstreet Boy, he's got tons of money, why is she working for a contruction company?!

Artists Dropped By Labels Left & Right!

Taylor Hicks may have won "American Idol," but he doesn't have his record deal anymore. The soul singer, who claimed the "Idol" title in 2006, has apparently been dropped by J Records, a label within Sony-BMG.

The Backstreet Boys have been rumored to be in the process of being dropped by their record label, Jive, following two album flops in a row. Maybe it's time they move on anyway?

Another American Idol, Ruben Studdard, who released three albums for J Records since 2003 (the latest, 2006's The Return, to modest sales), has been dropped from the label as well.

Scott Baio ties the knot

Renowned bachelor Scott Baio reportedly wed girlfriend Renee Sloan on Saturday in Los Angeles. The small rooftop ceremony was filmed for an episode of Baio's reality series, Scott Baio is 45... and Single.

Baio had dated the model-actress in the late 1990s after the two met at the Playboy Mansion. After their split they remained friends, and they restarted their relationship several years ago.

Sloan's 18-year-old daughter attended the ceremony, as did Baio and Sloan's newborn daughter.

Baio had previously displayed a reluctance to marry. "My parents were married 53 years, good and bad," he told People recently. "Can I do that? Probably not. But I really hope I can. I don't know, 53 years with the same human being? I can't be around myself for more than three or four hours before I want to kill everybody."

Also tying the knot on Saturday was Backstreet Boy Howie Dorough. He wed longtime girlfriend Leigh Boniello at St. James Cathedral in his hometown of Orlando.

"The whole thing was like it belonged in a bridal magazine," said one guest.

Dorough met Boniello in 2000 when she worked as the Backstreet Boys' Webmaster.

He proposed to her at her family's home in New Jersey last New Year's. "She wasn't expecting it, and I was quite nervous – more nervous about proposing to her in front of 40 family and friends than about performing in front of 40,000 people onstage," Dorough said.
