Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean Hurls His Underwear At Crowd During Mumbai Concert

New Delhi: American boy band Backstreet Boys performed at Jio Gardens in BKC in Mumbai on Thursday (May 4) amidst thousands of fans. Many videos from the concert have been doing the rounds on the internet. A video is going viral in which the boy band‘s member AJ McLean is seen hurling his underwear at the audience.
In one of the videos, band member AJ McLean is seen walking up to the extended stage area with his underwear in his hand and greeting the crowd. Waving the garment, he teases the crowd and throws it at a section of the crowd followed by loud cheers.
The band started this in 2022 as a response to the fans throwing their underwear on stage during performances. Earlier this year, during a concert in Manila, one of the members was seen doing the same.

The band, which has given chartbusters like 'Show Me The Meaning', 'I Want It That Way', 'Shape of My Heart', is every 1990s kid favourite and opens the floodgates of nostalgia every time any of their tracks plays. And it was the same for the crowd attending the concert in Mumbai last night as the band sang all their hits, taking the audience on a trip down memory lane.

I bet all the 90s gang would agree, what a emotional and surreal experience it was seeing BSB live. pic.twitter.com/DGFM5mcEfE
Earlier, staff members of a Mumbai hotel had danced to their all-time popular song, 'Larger Than Life', to welcome the American former boy band.
Tweeting about it from the hotel lobby on Wednesday, Backstreet Boys frontman Nick Carter wrote, "What cool surprise arriving at the hotel here in Mumbai India. The hotel staff had a full out Bollywood style dance prepared remixing all our songs. I guess we really do have fans all over the world."
