- Basic Info: "I'm a big hame and I gotta be out there and doing crazy stuff for no apparent reason, especially on stage......" admits AJ.(so even he doesn't know why...) But then, one might have guessed that there was something brewing when, as a youngster in his very first acting job, AJ brought the house down as Dopey in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In fact, by sixth grade, Alexander James McLean had appeared in 27 classics such as The Nutcracker, The King and I and Fiddler on the Roof. While attending junior high, AJ won a part in Nickelodeon's High Honey, I'm Home and began an ongoing relationship with both Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel. AJ sang, trained extensively in dance, and took acting classes. When he's not working, AJ, who's a skilled puppeteer, spends time cartooning, writing poetry that inspires his songwriting, playing basketball, volleyball and shooting pool. His take on the tracks on the Backstreet Boys' debut album? "In my mind, they're gonna be hits!"(and how they are...) now to add a few more things. It seems that out of all the BSB, he gets hurt the most...he has got his foot ran over by a van, he had an earring pulled out of his ear by someone, he sprained an ankle, twisted a muscle in 1998...damn boy. He was the second piece of the Backstreet puzzle. He was introduced to Howie by his vocal coach, which was Howie's vocal coach earlier. He is the wierd one of the group by far, but we love him :o).
