None all of them are overrated I'm better than every single one of them do a video about me
Here's My Opinion:
Least shocking: The Jonas Brothers and their purity rings.
Most Shocking: The financial and grooming allegations against Lou Pearlman.
Y’all should have added Mindless Behavior
Ms mojo is honophobic
@@b767nb That would be a very boring 30 second movie
Nick Carter was not the only member of Backstreet Boys to battle against substance ab*se…his problems were actually “minor” compared to AJ’s ones - which were one of the main reasons why the band took a several-years break at the turn of the millenium.
AJ bounced back though.
@@vanessastegall Absolutely. :) So did Nick - and the band in 2005 (or 2006, I don’t remember the right year).
AJ has admitted to relapse throughout the years. He keeps coming back though, that's all that matters
they both did BSb rocks!
@@sarabryan6103 that’s what I always tell myself! When life gives me a crappy hand I tell myself to just keep going. Bounce back and treat yourself with respect
It’s quite unfortunate Nick Carter’s younger brother fell victim to the horrible consequences of substance abuse. RIP Aaron.
Of course Lou Pearlman would be number one! He was a creep! I feel sorry for all the bands he managed including Backstreet Boys and NSYNC. My heart breaks for them cuz of all the shit Lou put em through 😭💔
i know right? nsync and the BSb are always and forever
Did you watch the documentary Lance Bass did about him? I found it so creepy odd how Aaron Carter was the only one that defended him. It came off as Stockholm syndrome.
@@vixxxenfoxxx3660 I watched it and thought exactly this
@@vixxxenfoxxx3660 I sure did. I was shocked how Aaron Carter stood up for Lou. I was like "WTF Aaron???? Are you serious??????? Defending that creep??????????????" Why would anyone defend Pearlman???? I just don't get it
@@Tigersfan1987 I got Stockholm vibes from the entire thing, like he was overly defending Lou too hard. Maybe Lou really did a thorough job grooming the kid.
K-Pop deserves a list of its own
In the works!
Several😅
Agreed lol TVXQ, EXO...there are so many 🤣
FR 😬
@@AL-fi2us even SM had its own list..
When they said that Elton John helped Robbie Williams I realised that he also helped Eminem and now I'm curious how many people did he help or tried to help? And if it is 10 or more it would make a great list :-D
Elton John is a talent and down to earth,he was at people's bedsides when people were dying of aids. Biden gave him a medal and he cried.
lady gaga..
Ed Sheeran realized he had an issue with alcohol while reading Elton’s biography
Drugs are the root of all evil. I’m so proud of both Robbie Willams and Nick Carter for coming out on the other side.
I thought the love of money was the root of all evil?
me too
It is people.
@@Jeremiah_Rivers76 you have a point but drugs are also bad.
Money is the root to all evil.
Can you do the Top 10 Biggest Girl Group Scandals next, Msmojo? I honestly think they're more juicy and controversial than the boy band ones.
Yes. Especially like the constant lineup changes in Sugababes.
Bit unfair to say the women are more controversial
No girls are garb*ge
@@laurenpatrick4609 They're talking about the scandals come one now 🤦🏽♀️
Great suggestion!
While I get that Seungri was the face of the Burning Sun scandal, since it was his club and he was the most well known Korean celebrity in the investigation, I feel like we need to add the other Kpop members that were a part of it too as they did participate in the crimes of that club. Seungri's trial took awhile before he was charged with anything, mainly taking a plea deal for a lesser jail time (mainly for tax fraud and gambling, but they added some charges for him to admit to for that plea deal). But then you have Jung Joon-Young (from the band Drug Restaurant) who was charged for a*****ting ten different women, some of who were unconscious, and sharing footage of it. Choi Jong-hoon (from FT. Island) was sentenced for participating in gang r*** at the club. Lee Jong-hyun (from CNBlue) was included in all this, because he was interacting with the unsolicited photos and videos in the group chat that was used in the scandal. Burning Sun didn't just affect the group Bigbang, but these other groups too. Definitely a heavy scandal within the kpop industry
Actually Burning Sun was 3 separate scandals rolled into one. Burning Sun itself was blown up due to false allegations by a guy who has since been convicted of harassment himself and by rumours spread on the net. The worst they found at the club was some embezzlement and personal drug stashes by a couple of employees. Seungri was only a 8% investor with no direct control of the club.
It was the reporter who had the molka chat logs for years who allowed people to assume that Seungri was in the chats to tie them to Burning Sun since he was the celebrity face of the club. They also brought up the actress’ suicide as it resonated with the celebrity world and abuse of women.
Ms Mojo should do better research as the Buzzfeed video about these scandals is so badly done and full of misinformation. The creator Aria did such a lousy job of covering the molka problem in South Korea. He tied together so many different scandals and false allegations yet he denies he was wrong about any of it.
He still trash
'Will this fan base ever know peace??'
Me as a 1D fan-No, No I don't think we will..
Lmao 😂
Lou Perman did the same thing to NSYNC as he did to the Backstreet Boys.
I really feel sorry for what Michael and his siblings went through going up with their father joe
I could be wrong but Michael seemed the most resentful about the "discipline" he received as a child. His brothers and sisters have talked about it and said that it was normal and they were grateful for being raised that way because they would probably be dead or in jail otherwise. There was a sadness in Michael's eyes every time he talked about his childhood and his father even though he loved him. I truly think Michael Jackson wanted more than anything was validation from his father which he probably never got. Heck Joe Jackson wouldn't even let his own kids call him dad, they had to call him Joseph. And that's why I would never lay a hand on my child, you never know the psychological damage that could come from it.
who is Michael?
@@fredricotraversiere8868 Michael Jackson
It's crazy that 3 of these entries are groups being screwed over by the SAME GUY. 😧😯🤯
And he did it to a few more. Part of the reason Aaron Carter was messed up for sure, all though he said Pearlman did nothing to him.
one Direction's mangament was toxic and just beyond horrible that why Zayn left and why the boys broke up just the things the management did
Pretty amazing how many people Sir Elton has saved from addiction.
Sir Elton has a reputation for liking them VERY young. And this is from someone who toured with him in the 80s.
And he helped cure polio. That's why he's a Sir and you're not, na na ne nah nah.
you also forgot to mention the New Kids On The Block facing ridiculous lip-syncing allegations in the wake of the Milli Vanilli scandal. a lot of people turned on them for that despite not being true.
My 1D heart broke when Zayn left the band... but it broke even more when they said they doing a hiatus. Sooo luckily I didn't know it will last more than 7 years 🥲💔
ikr 💔
Loved that you mentioned N.Flying because they deserve so much more attention and recognition. However I think a bigger scandal in Kpop might have been BI getting kicked out of IKON
Nah the burning sun scandal and all those involved is by far one of the biggest scandals in kpop. BI getting kicked out is influenced by that scandal is is child’s play compared to it
I'm surprised you didn't include B2K, especially since they've had scandals from the past and then even more in the present. Given they actually had a member accuse their manager of r*ping him and they've had several other scandals, alot of which is covered on tv.
Yeah I was surprised too
No black groups mentioned
@@Ari-mu5ub the Jackson’s but they barely do black artists on their count downs.
I was here for them.
I usually try to ignore the lack of black culture and representation on their lists, but this one is so blatant it’s disrespectful smh
It's crazy in hindsight hearing Nick say that when we know the direction in which his brother went.
That's exactly what I was thinking. It was so sad when he said, he didn't want to be the person on TV who you felt bad for and hear they died. That's exactly what happened to Aaron. 😢
Yes, happy he and AJ haven't suffered the same fate as Aaron.
Not the bye bye byeeeeeee directly after talking about that man dying 😅
I noticed that, too! 😂
It seems like Lou Pearlman deserves a list for himself 👀
Referencing Night Changes in the 1D entry. Awesome.
Be in a boy band they said. Its gonna be fun they said.
Only if you were gay
😂😂😂
Msmojo is spilling the tea after two amazing games of football you gotta love that❤️
I'm glad Nick was able to bounce back and (spoiler alert) almost win the Masked Singer a couples seasons back!
Although the guy's experience sounded awful, having Elton John as a bit of a mentor would be pretty epic.
And I will never understand why strangers stick their noses in other people's sex lives. That's one of the biggest issues that made me leave religion. Whether or not I have sex is not some old fart's concern, and the fact that a bunch of old people care whether or not teenagers that aren't their own children are having sex, is fucking creepy.
I was going to say the NSYNC scandal would be #1, but I definitely understand why it's not..yikes....
Take That reuniting with Robbie Williams was one of the happiest Moments of my life. It's stil the best boyband ever.
The Flood doesn't hold a candle to Shine though.
of course #1 is Lou Pearlman he a scammer!
indeed
3:25 how heartbreaking that he made that comment only for it to happen to his brother💔
Nick wasn't the only bsb member who hasn't had substance abuse issues
Yes, AJ has struggled too and has been even more vocal than Nick about his issues and recovery. Annoyed that Nick gets almost all the recognition.
AJ McLean. Of course. He's the bad boy, after all XD!
I am a 1D fan from the bottom of my heart, but damn that interview Liam gave where he also shaded Zayn felt so off that I still feel ashamed of him.
One question about that Lou Pearlman case though. Did all the bands receive the their fair share at the end?
Msmojo can you please do one for girl groups?
Very very great list I like it a lot very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 💗
Ugh I was so upset about N.Flying. I had just gotten into them too when that happened
The TVXQ members suing Sm should be on this list
Wasn't expecting to see N.flying on here!
or any Kpop related scandal for that matter
What about Backstreet Boys alumnus A.J.'s drug addiction?
I heard A.J drug addiction but I don't remember if I heard about Nick's addiction if I did I just don't remember.
We talk a lot about the Jacksons but let's not forget about the Debarge family
Boy South Park Was Right About Those Dumbass purity rings also Disney they still ruined Hollywood to hell with them
I’m absolutely, 💯 percent convinced Lou was a predator and more, Aaron was a victim of his who never came to accept what was done to him. Watching his reaction when he was asked if he believed the allegations against Lou were true is heartbreaking, devastatingly sad. RIP, AC. You are so missed.
Thanks our videos.hugs.💋❤😄😁😃
Okay mu friends thanks hugs🙃😀😘❤
You forgot New Edition/nkotb and Maurice Starr
I saw Boyband Con documentary. It was horrible what that guy did to both Backstreet & N' Sync. I was like " Wowww, wonder what else goes on behind closed doors " ...!!
X1's Disbandment should be on this List. It was so UNFAIR due to Mnet's STUPID Controversy.
As someone who’s follows done direction from their xfactor days…..zany was never happy never wanted to be there never enjoyed any of it lol
... I always thought Joe Jackson was a monster, but then I grew up. He's technically right about raising his kids the way he did; it was that way at that time. However, he raised some of the world's greatest talent.
Can you do Top 10 biggest Girls Group Scandals Please MsMoJo
They did, a few days ago
New Kids on the Block’s lip syncing allegations should have been at least an honorable mention
Milli Vanilli got caught. There's some justice there, at least.
i didn't know that about nkotheblock
British boy band East 17’s scandal should be on this list too, I remember reading about the drug scandal surrounding the group co-lead singer Brian Harvey. I and many people found it very shocking till this day, it’s shocking then and it’s shocking now, it was a very irresponsible and dangerous thing to say. In January 1997, Brian Harvey claimed that he had taken ecstasy pills stating in the press that "It's cool to take drugs" and claiming that ecstasy "can make you a better person" (ecstasy was a very sensitive topic in the 90s due to moral panic of many young people taking the drug and dying from it, making headlines.) after that the band career mainly flatlined, Brian Harvey has since been involved in many controversial in recent years such as publicly destroying his platinum discs on the street in front of onlookers and filming himself doing this and putting it on his TH-cam channel, arrested for harassing his ex girlfriend in 2021 (a famous British soap actress he dated in 90s.) and I heard he livestream himself self harming or about to commit self harm on himself on his TH-cam channel.
Perlman was basically the Weinstein of the music industry
Looking back at it now and ignoring bs double standard for sexualization, the "Quit Playing Games With My Heart" video was a bit of a red flag for confirming those grooming allegations to be true. Nick and Brian were 15 and 17 in that video.
The song/video was released in October 1996, making Nick 16 and the others adults. Nick and AJ were, however, 12 and 14 when they joined the group.
AJ was also allegedly 15 when "Lay down Beside Me" was recorded.
Not really. Brian was 21 already (The video was filmed in July 1996 and Brian was born in February 20th 1975. Nick absolutely was still a minor, though (he was 16).
You can tell he was the only underage cause he was the only member in the video who didn't get to unbutton his shirt (obvious reason), same goes for "Anywhere for you" were you never see him only with his swimsuit (he's using a shirt or something on in every single take he appears).
i remember hearing about joe jackson's parenting, but the rest were new to me (i think?)
I just came to see if the J5 featured.
How you guys forget about B2K and their scandal?
Y2K?
@@MegaMaxiepad No B2K. It was a very popular boy band in the early 2000s.
Why was B2K not mentioned at all, hello Chris Stokes?!!
What are those people holding in 8:48-8:50?
Microphones
OA I was hoping for either One Direction Zayn leaving or N’Sync Financial Issues would’ve been number one but still I support Various Bands Lou Pearlman Grooming Allegations being at that number. ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
what about the A.J issues or when Kevin left the band for mental health and stay away of the public eye and even Robbie had his issues, Gary Barlow said that he have open invitation to sing with the group whenever he want
Yes, annoyed that wasn't mentioned; especially when AJ has been more vocal about his struggles and recovery than Nick has. He hosted a podcast during the pandemic that really went into it.
the way grown adults were talking extensively about 3 young boys in their teens/barely early 20s and their private lives is SO WEIRD like young artists can’t do anything right they’re either ridiculed for being “too clean” or scrutinized if they “act out”
I so did not expect to see N.flying here.
Actually why are they even on this list? They're not a boy band. They're a band
Busted is a boyband. So is McFly.
LOVE YOU
I was shocked to learn that lou Perlman was stealing money from the boy bands he managed
I'm surprised B2K didn't make the list
I’m surprised you chose Nick’s substance abuse over AJ’s but it is what it is.
Yes--especially because he has been more vocal about his struggles and recovery.
Seungri and exo exmember Kris wu being a predator was shocking
Seungri was still in BigBang Kris had left long long ago before this all happened so stop associating EXO name here thanks
Except that Seungri is not a predator. Maybe look up His case in detail?
@@vulpeadejad7523he was still complicit regardless
@@duckydae how? He was cleared from the chats by law enforcement in 2019, also the broadcast channel who implied it could be him publicly apologized, stated he wasn’t in any of the molka chats and that “singer Lee” was actually Lee Jonghyun of CNBlue. He wasn’t even called as a witness in any of the other trials. None of the assaults committed by the molka chat members occurred at Burning Sun. No woman has come forward (publicly or even online) to accuse him of harm. They spent almost two years and the worst they found was that his business partner hired prostitutes which according to the judge “he had to have known.”
Articles just keep using his face since they tied all of these things together and he was the most famous at the time.
Seungri wasn't even a part of that trial, how was he a predator? He was charged for providing prostitutes to investors (which is sadly very common in SK), embezzlement, and gambling abroad.
My fave is the 90s boyband
Notice how BTR and 5SOS arent on this list?✨
BTR are guys unproblematic kings
@@maiavitale8458pfft. that’s the biggest bs ive heard. especially considering the group contains carlos
Because BTR stays out of the drama 😂
@@duckydaewhat’s wrong with Carlos?!
Purity ring mickey rule😂
It was his brother instead.
Lou Pearlman the last boyband US5 was my fave and the US Boy my fave had his own scandal the disco toilet scandal
Dream Street didn't make the big time, but a scandal literally broke up the band. The parents of 4 members sued management accusing them of exposing the boys to alcohol and pornography. I didn't find out until years later that the allegations were found to be false in the courts, but the band still broke up. Only Chris Trousdale stayed with them, but he ultimately left because the record company wanted him to be part of a new Dream Street and he was only interested in a solo career. A solo career that sadly never came to fruition. No chairs turned for him when he auditioned for The Voice and he passed away from covid in 2020. Jesse McCartney has enjoyed a moderate solo career since the breakup (and did really well on The Masked Singer), Greg Raposo still does music with his band, but the others have since chosen other careers
Two of them married fangirls if that means anything.
Sad that both lead singers of LFO have since passed away due to cancer.
Wow I knew A.J. had issues with alcohol and stuff they announced that they would take time off for it after black and blue album never knew Nick did but I'm glad they pushed through i love the Backstreet Boys 💜
Curious why it's Nick Carter's addiction they focused on instead of AJ's in the BSB, when AJ struggled for so much longer.
Likely because of the family situation and that Nick was younger.
What about brain mccfadden of Westlife???????????
i was not expecting to see nflying
Am I the only one that watched this because of one direction as the cover😭😂
I'm very surprised Blink 182 and Limp Bizkit and House of Pain wasn't on this list.
They aren’t considered boy bands.
Why they show *NSYNC under the Backstreet Boys
New Kids On The Block New Edition and Musical Youth.
How is B2k rape allegations not on here 0.0
I looked at the title and said WELLL
AM LOVE THE JONAS BROTHSERS SO FUNNY YOU THE PURITY RINGS AM SO WATERMELON SUGAR NOW BY HARRY STYLES
if you ever do a part 2, you should look into the lawsuit between Why Don't We and their old management team. those boys went through some serious shit at the beginning of their careers
Also, when it comes to people who were obsessed with the Jonas Brothers purity rings, are the same people that were obsessed with Britney Spears being an virgin
The kpop group B.A.P was extremely underpaid and essentially used by their label, that's a very underrated scandal.
A more known one was what happened with Seungri in Bigbang
I selfishly thought B2K would be on the list for their break up & Chris Stokes sexual assault allegations from his nephew.
I forgot which band it was. But there was a scandal of a photo taken in a toilet where one member obviously got a bl*w job and management tried to sell it like he was sick and another member helped him.
You’re confusing Robbie Williams with Gary Barlow in the source videos 🤣
THE BOY BAND IS JONAS BROTHERS AND AM SHOCKED NOW HARRY STYLES NOW SIA KRISTIN MALDONADO
Why are they getting on Zayn Malik for leaving 1D. When the group broke up, Harry Styles ended up becoming more successful than Zayn Malik
Why did I think that 1D was an American boy band???
How come I never hear of white celebrity entertainers actors musicians going broke/bankrupt because of overspending or bad contracts? I have only heard of blacks like Will Smith, MC Hammer, 50 cent, TLC, Toni Braxton, Lil Kim. etc
they defo exist, a lot of them were just young back in the 90s. s club 7 is a good example. one of the guys from the group had to sell his BRIT award (UK Grammy) on ebay because he was so broke.
@@duckydae I did not know that thanks
Off course how can be forget burning sun scandle.
The girls aloud stuff is rubbish,they got on they were a band for 10years and were planning a 20year old tour,but Sarah got cancer and spread all through her body,they all got on and yeah Kim,nic and Cheryl went out more on their own and Sarah and nadine went out on their own on nights out and sometimes together,they were British ambassadors for UK 🇬🇧 to China,also yes Cheryl did her time but the albums on solo was on a little bit of a break and they had plans for their 10th anniversary well before that break,they never split.they are brilliant and also need a return as a 4 now.I’m a major massive fan of girls aloud and Sugababes,they had more scandals than any other girl groups x😊
Two words.........Dhavie Vanity!
AM SHOCKED MY IS JONAS BROTHERS IS NICK JONAS JOE JONAS AND KEVIN JONAS NOW AM LOVE JONAS BROTHERS NOW SO JEALOUS NOW
Spanking kids is abuse. I never learned anything except the need to revolt. Ruined my life.
Please tell me in not the only one, I've just realize a lot of these successful solo pop artist were actually part of a boy band, like Zayn and Harry Styles for example, I'm an One Direction fan but i didn't know.
Nick what about AJ his substance abuse was way worse.
I’m guessing because Nick was much younger.
