Met Alex in our hotel after a BSB show on Halloween in Denver (late 90's). My heart hurt for him. Moved to AZ a bit later and found out he checked into The Meadows (early 2000's). I painted him a lion and dropped it off at the facility for him, not knowing if he would ever receive it, but wanting to send him strength. It fills my heart with such joy to see that he is healthy, happy, and continuing to learn and grow.
I have loved Backstreet Boys since I was 8. I’m 35, I’ve seen them in concert about 15 times. A.J was ALWAYS! My favorite and I thought I knew so much about him but boy was I wrong. This was so eye opening, he was so open and vulnerable in this and just so natural. I love this so much. I was so shocked and excited when this popped up on my feed. Great job Katee!!
I’ve been a fan since 4th grade and I’ve only been to 1 BSB concert in 2022 (DNA tour). The 12 year old in my literally come out that night and I still replay it in my head over and over again😁
Katee, Thank you for a fantastic conversation with AJ! That was so deep and please thank him for being so open and honest….. Have a great day and stay safe!
I love Aj, he is so sweet, I had a chance to go to BSB show about 20 years ago here in Brazil, I was in the meet and greet, took a photo and had a chance to go to stage, to the backstage, amazing experience with Aj guiding the fans, nice memory. I've been in fan for 26 years ❤
Backstreet Boys were part of a truly great era of pop music and boy bands. I feel so bad for Brian Littrell for losing his beautiful voice to dysphonia - He was the backbone of the BSB sound and the band have never truly recovered from that loss. Still a great band though. Awesome performers
Thank you for another amazing interview!! Alex was very engaging, I actually didn’t know who he was but glad to hear his journey. Peace and love to him and you as well!! Can’t wait for the follow up with Christian!
I'm loving all the interviews AJ is doing lately.! So so proud of you babe! Watching your healing journey and seeing you come out stronger and more amazing than you already were, is truly an inspiration! LOVE YOU !!!!!! #Skullee #KTBSPA
I loved the energy in this one, it was like two besties having a really excited chat. Really interesting conversations as well. I am totally going to use the hand hug idea from now on too!
Obviously I love Backstreet Boys, but AJ totally showed his stage talent when he was on Drag Race! Drag is such a fantastic yet over the top style of performing arts, and it's clearly difficult. He rocked it!! He truly proved he's the real deal, a true master of the stage!! ❤❤❤
I love this show so much. Nothing bothers me more than late-night shows because most of the time they only give their guests 5 minutes to talk and then they've got the next guest on. It's so refreshing to hear an entire conversation. If you think the rich and famous have great lives so that's what you want to be, here's more proof that just because you're famous it doesn't mean your world is perfect. Everyone has something they deal with or some part of them that was broken at a young age. It doesn't disappear just because you're famous.
This was a really great interview. Been a fan of BSB esp AJ since I was 15 (I’m 41 now) & it’s awesome to see “Alex”. He seems like an really cool guy 👍🏻 #wedorecover #justfortoday #onedayatatime ❤
Hello! Sending you lots of love & saying thank you 🎸♥️ 😊❤️ I’ll never forget that your encouragement, kindness & continous support is what got us here today💛 Thank you, thank you, thank you🙏 I love & respect you all as my fan🤗
I just came across you but have been a fan of BSB for over 25 years. I've always loved AJ but now I'm a huge lover of Alex. I got my first tattoo right after covid that says free hugs, I couldn't go that long without them again! Thinking I need to have a sign at my next BSB concert that says that lol 🤞

I came running from Facebook, I hope my sister can see it. She is a big fan of the group and her crush AJ The BB'S were a revolution for boy bands, that is indisputable. They contributed so much that today we can see that inspiration in groups like BTS and other kpop groups. Hugs Katee🇲🇽💖
Challenge accepted. Thank you so very much Alex. And very pleased to finally know a bit about you For sharing these things and giving me so much more to think about. I always thought (recently) I've been on a good path and working so hard to get a better me, but everytime i'm watching my favorite Podcasts (Inside of you and now on a equal value Point your Blah, Blah, Blah) i learn something new, that is helping me, to do it better, with such more value for me and....I love that i can say this....make it so much easier for me to cope with...well...ME I love what you're doing and love you all for sharing this with us.
Never heard of you before (sorry ❤) but I absolutely love Alex (AJ) and was searching interviews and this one came up. Fantastic interview and you seem so lovely Katee. Love from the UK 🇬🇧
Thank you starting with just the title open and not a clip of the show. I personally am not a fan of the editing style on YT of putting a clip of the show as a "cold open" that later appears again in the episode.
Clicked for Katee and Kristian but have to admit it was sort of cathartic to listen to a couple of hot celebrities talk about insecurities and hair transplants with some vulnerability. I'll probably never be a rockstar or actor but when I get a haircut, they have to use a razor comb thing to thin out my sexy ass full head of hair 😁
I've only met a few celebrities in person, I always felt weird meeting any of them because I don't ever want to feel like I am intruding on their lives. I can't imagine how someone in the public eye ever goes out to eat or ever goes anywhere without being bothered so because of that, I've seen a few celebrities at a distance but won't approach them because I always felt like I would be bothering them. Locally from where I am Sigourney Weaver has a home as well as other celebrities and they all shop at one of the markets that I know of, but I would never approach them because I imagine they get that all the time. I know I would myself hate to be a celebrity because I can't imagine having people all the time around me like that. I think I would end up as a recluse.
5:22 - think AJ got the years wrong. He was 19 in 1997, American Idol wasn't until 2002 so it must've been his 24th Birthday 1:24:38 - that's why I was always just drawn to AJ; his style, voice, dancing, fashion. He's 16% Black 😎✌
I loved hearing more about him but kept getting frustrated with her interrupting him or saying something about herself before he finished what he was saying. Knew I have seen her somewhere and just realized she was Vic on Longmire, loved that show. 😊
I have gotten help cause of Covid seeing two psychologists working on me plus medical emergencies just have done well with the after effects of lockdowns and Covid happy to I'm more relaxed and happy
I was called gay for being a fan of the Backstreet Boys in the 90s when it was considered a huge insult. I never cared. I always said if the music I like makes me attracted to men, I guess I'm gay. It was hard to believe a hetero male who likes woman his own age could listen to pop music.
I'm glad that AJ hates "If You Want It To Be Good Girl" as well. Howie also hates it, having said so in a webcam video several years ago. I love the group, but I'm with AJ on his disdain for that song. It is truly horrendous. It also made me laugh when AJ described Nick as a Viking, and made fun of Brian's initial accent...mainly because he doesn't really have it anymore. But I guess that's what happens when you're constantly traveling the world for 30 years.

When is Ming’s episode?!
I've known "AJ" for decades. It's absolutely lovely to finally meet Alex. 🙂
You should listen to the song "london" by him, that's Alex

Best episode yet! The conversations flowed so effortlessly that I was totally convinced you'd already known each other for years and years.
Thank you for bringing a “real” and entertaining project to a platform that is arguably lacking in such quality content. Keep up the great work!!
Katee,
Thank you for a fantastic conversation with AJ! That was so deep and please thank him for being so open and honest….. Have a great day and stay safe!
I was not expecting this guest at all! Love this Katee, you’re so talented at what you do keep up the great work!
AJ has a great voice singing or talking!
I love Aj, he is so sweet, I had a chance to go to BSB show about 20 years ago here in Brazil, I was in the meet and greet, took a photo and had a chance to go to stage, to the backstage, amazing experience with Aj guiding the fans, nice memory.
I've been in fan for 26 years ❤
Another great interview from Blah, Blah, Blah! Thanks Katee and AJ!
I’m not a fan of his band but I am a fan of AJ now off stage AJ. So awesome of him to be so open and honest, What a great conversation Katee!
Backstreet Boys were part of a truly great era of pop music and boy bands. I feel so bad for Brian Littrell for losing his beautiful voice to dysphonia - He was the backbone of the BSB sound and the band have never truly recovered from that loss. Still a great band though. Awesome performers

LOVE YOU !!!!!! #Skullee #KTBSPA
Loved this episode and the positive energy towards working on yourself and being kinder to yourself
Poppy Love! Can’t wait to see Poppy come back to crown the next Secret Celebrity Drag Superstar in Season 3!
I loved the energy in this one, it was like two besties having a really excited chat. Really interesting conversations as well. I am totally going to use the hand hug idea from now on too!

I love AJ. I wish he is happy in his life. And everything good happen to him and their lovely ones.
This was so amazing. I’m here at work (Nurse) and I’m listening with my AirPods from my desk. It was so entertaining. Just wow.
Challenge accepted.
Thank you so very much Alex.
And very pleased to finally know a bit about you

Another awesome conversation.
My favorite voice in the while wide world from the first time I heard him. 😍 I can't wait to see him perform in person someday! ❤🎉

I’m in love with him

This was a delight.
5:22 - think AJ got the years wrong. He was 19 in 1997, American Idol wasn't until 2002
so it must've been his 24th Birthday
1:24:38 - that's why I was always just drawn to AJ; his style, voice, dancing, fashion.
He's 16% Black 😎✌
I loved hearing more about him but kept getting frustrated with her interrupting him or saying something about herself before he finished what he was saying. Knew I have seen her somewhere and just realized she was Vic on Longmire, loved that show. 😊
Omg same it was driving me crazy!!! Let the man talk!!!!
AJ❤❤❤❤❤
Katie! What a sweet interview! Awww.
I love BSB eversince.. and i absolutely admire AJ (Alex). He is talented & smart
So happy you are back!!! What happened to your cute little laugh on your opening? ❤
Great conversation!🙌🏻💖
I hope to see him someday because I want to give him a real hug 🫂 ❤
Great interview
Enjoyed listening to this ✨💯
He really needed to talk...
Katee you are such a graceful host 😊
freaking love katee
Love you ❤more and more AJ my baby
I have gotten help cause of Covid seeing two psychologists working on me plus medical emergencies just have done well with the after effects of lockdowns and Covid happy to I'm more relaxed and happy
I was like, AJ meh, and i said, i really like what Katee is doig, so I'll watch it anyway. Great interview.
@user-di8ig no, it's Bo-Katan Kryze. 😉
When did they record this interview ? Him and his wife announced their divorce in January
At the end of the interview they talk about Halloween so, they shooted it maybe in October 🤷♀️
Wow! That covered a lot of ground! I don't know where to start, so I'll just leave it at that. Ditto on the Wow!
Alex ❤
15:49 Aj dry snitching on Brian lol
Also a big fan of Star Wars fan
I like to look at "AJ" as kinda like a character at Disney. Once you put on that persona you ARE that character.
At 22:30 oh Kristian with an amazing burn. I laughed...
I feel sad that AJ is getting a divorce.
❤KATEE......2%ER here !......like your boots! ...now I gotta go SACKHOFF❤! 😂😂😂
Good night my friend AJ the is especially for me is una persona honest in magnific in my life beijos e abraços The Mirjana
Mr. DJ. = Yes
Face lift = No.
-Gratitude.
I have the whole BSB collection funko pops. I got them on Amazon 😍
I also love hand hugs 🤗
Katie seems nice . I love Xmas in ny song.
My first space crush was Catherine Schell.
If I could pick, I would pick a song that’s not an album! “Can’t Stop Thinking About You.”
Oh my god I love looking on zillow too
Katee has to be referring to Beyond The Trailer 😏. Grace Randolph hates a lot of actresses and Henry Cavill for some reason. 😂
Came to the comments just to see who she was talking about. lol Thanks.
That's who I thought was she talking about too.
Nice to hear from Alex and not AJ
hii katee 😃!!
Katee plays a tough chick in most of her projects, but here she's very much feminine & fangirling, its actually nice & she looks very beautiful
🥰
you should get Harrison Ford on your show. that would just be totally awesome
He's a notorious difficult interview. Partly because he's always grumpy, and partly because he's always high.
I would like to hear a Calista Flockhart one
Bring Mary mcdonnell on
🔥❤️🔥
American werewolf in London
I was called gay for being a fan of the Backstreet Boys in the 90s when it was considered a huge insult. I never cared. I always said if the music I like makes me attracted to men, I guess I'm gay. It was hard to believe a hetero male who likes woman his own age could listen to pop music.
My husband... he just doesn't know it 😂😂😂😂
Unfortunately they are divorced now :(
Katee I’m just curious to know if you will take suggestions for guests? If so I think I have a real interesting one for you.
Love American in London
Thank you Katee.
I'm glad that AJ hates "If You Want It To Be Good Girl" as well. Howie also hates it, having said so in a webcam video several years ago. I love the group, but I'm with AJ on his disdain for that song. It is truly horrendous.

BOO! That song is great 🎶 🎵
Ughhh the section about his wife and him is sad as they announced they are divorcing
noooo stop interrupting my Boy!!!
This guy says, "I" "My" and "Me" a lot.
He says more with those words than the entire interview.
omg my first yay
