Posted June 27, 200619 yr I am angry that Kevin has left Backstreet Boys (see "Kevin Richardson Quits Backstreet Boys"). Since Never Gone, I thought someone would leave, but I expected it to be Howie. He didn't seem so into it. But Kevin? Well, I'm sure he knows what's best for him. Rene, 20 Miami, FL I was very sad to learn of Kevin Richardson's plans to leave Backstreet Boys. I wish he would have shared what his plans are — although he certainly is not obligated to — so we could better understand his departure. I wish him luck and support the group's decision to continue. Karen, 42 El Paso, TX After all this time, I'm still a Backstreet Boys fan. It's so sad that Kevin is no longer with them. I wish him the best, and I hope he finds what he's looking for. I look forward to the BSBs' next album as a group of four. Denita, 18 Rochester, NY I can't believe Kevin is leaving the group. I know that he wants to pursue other interests, but can't he do that while he's still with Backstreet? Nick and Brian did their own things without totally leaving the band. I will still always support all five in anything they do. Lindsay, 19 Florence, KY Kevin's departure is such a shock. I just wish Backstreet Boys and Kevin the best. I still can't believe it.
