BSBFCP aims to achieve the following:
- To establish an official Backstreet Boys fan community in the Philippines;
- To make the Philippines as a major country to in South-East Asia for the Backstreet Boys to tour in, whether for promotional or major concert tours; and
- To reach out to the Filipino Backstreet Boys Fans, Locally and Internationally.
In addition, BSBFCP looks forward to keeping the Backstreet pride alive in the Philippines and bridging the gap between the Backstreet Boys and their loyal Filipino Fans presently and in the future.
How it all began...
BSB mania began when a
quintet of gifted, vibrant and
good-looking boys from
Orlando, Florida first came to
Philippine shores on October 18,
1996 at a time when their hit single
‘Get Down’ spawned the latest dance
craze and their sentimental ballad ‘Anywhere
For You’ was scorching the charts. Filipinos
immediately recognized their talent and charisma and soon a strong following
quickly developed. With their first album, ‘Backstreet Boys’, reaching
seven-time platinum status, the Philippines holds the distinction as the only
country to award them that astonishing record sales achievement.
Never really Gone...
Following the uncertainty of a five-year hiatus, the Backstreet Boys released
their latest album, Never Gone, to the delight and surprise of their numerous
followers. This much awaited and most welcome return to the music scene
sparked a resurgence among their fans here in the Philippines.
Originally formed in November 2005, the BackStreet Boys Fan Club Philippines
(BSBFCP) was founded by faithful supporters since 1996. Made up of students,
young professionals, single and married, very young and not too old from all
areas of the country and different levels of society, the diversity is testament
to the Backstreet Boys’ staying power and universal appeal.
January 20, 2006 marked another milestone in Philippine BSB history when the
quintessential boyband returned for a one-night engagement as part of the
Southeast Asian Leg of their Never Gone tour. After nearly a decade since their
last visit, their Filipino devotees eagerly embraced the opportunity to finally
see them once more. In a sellout concert at the Araneta Coliseum, tens of
thousands of wildly appreciative, screaming, shrieking, dancing fans came out
in full force to welcome their idols. In the aftermath of the highly successful
show, a renewed and revitalized outpouring of Backstreet Boys frenzy ensued.
This phenomenon brought heightened interest and increased membership to
the young BSBFCP which in turn, extended its resources to reach more and
more BSB afficionados.
Thank to the tirelesss efforts of some fans, members of the media and the
Sony-BMG label, the BackStreet Boys Fan Club Philippines was formally
established to continually provide the latest news on the Backstreet Boys and to
unite as many of their the fans through friendship, love and music.

BSBFCP is the only Backstreet Boys Fan Club in the country recognized by Sony-BMG Philippines.
BSBFCP is not, in anyway, connected directly to the Backstreet Boys themselves nor their management.
