BACKSTREET BOYS - BACKSTREET BOYS HOPEFUL RICHARDSON WILL RETURN
leaving his local Starbucks coffee shop at the Cross Creek center in
Malibu, California ....
Departed BACKSTREET BOYS star KEVIN RICHARDSON will be welcomed back into the boy band if he ever chooses to return.
The singer shocked his bandmates last year (06) when he announced his plans to quit the group and start a family, but the band will never replace him and hope he'll come back one day.
Former bandmate Nick Carter says, "He came to us about a year and a half ago when we started recording the record and just talked to us and said, 'You know guys, I'm in a different chapter right now... I wanna start a family with my wife.'
"To be honest, when we're recording a record - between recording it, promoting it and on tour - it's two years of life you have to give away, and that's something I would never wish upon anybody, to try and start a family out on the road.
"He came to us to ask for our blessing and we totally gave it to him and, at the same time, he gave us his blessing to keep on going.
"But the door is always open. I spoke to him the other day."

You know what? If you're that type of fan, I'd say don't bother. A true fan
supports what Kevin and the guys want, and your desires be damned.
Kevin needs to be happy, whether it's leaving to start a family and do a show,
or returning to the group he gave more than a decade of his life to!
I hate fans like you.

awww, thank you for you kind words. as i have mentioned many times before in
different forums, nowhere in the book of fan codes of Backstreet does it say we
have to be happy with EVERYTHING they do. most are just too naive to see what
really happened. we were lied to and the situation was handled rather poorly.
we are all adults and they have prided themselves are making sure the fans knew
the TRUTH about everything. why skirt around the issue as to why he really
left? i'm pretty sure everyone knew he really wanted a family, it was no
secret and that is all he had to say. instead he chose to act like it was a
secret and say he just wasn't into it anymore and quits and now he will more
than likely come back to the group next time around. sweety, i'm not the only
one that feels this way but many of you need to wake up and smell the coffee
and realize that they are not gods and that some of us can see the reality of
the situation.
