Quotes by A. J. McLean

But people who really know me, know that I am not a bad boy at heart... I am a big teddy bear.

Our fans want us to be happy and if that means being married or having a girlfriend, they are okay with that. Of course, in this industry it is a bit harder to have normal relationships, but it is possible.

People don't really know us for us, we're just five guys who came from ordinary lives, and we have been blessed with a talent to perform and bring happiness to other people's lives. We had to pay our dues and bust our balls, and will probably have to do it again since we took a break. But we are all hungry and excited to be back recording and touring.

The biggest misconception about me is the bad-boy image that everyone stuck me into due to my tattoos, drug days and the constant changes I make with my hair color.

We didn't realize there were that many boy bands until we started touring in Europe. I don't think we were ever affected by it since a lot of the groups in Europe didn't really sing live, but we did and would perform a cappella as well.

Music is love, love is music, music is life, and I love my life. Thank you and good night.
