Hi friends, happy Thursday!

Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Who remembers the epic battle of our childhood known as NSYNC vs Backstreet Boys? Cause boy do I remember it. But what I did not realize was that it was all fake. It was orchestrated by one man who was raking in the cash from both bands. Today we get into that and much MUCH more about the dark history of boy bands, from when they started to where they are now. And let me tell you, it is QUITE a tale.

I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more dark history.

You can find Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my Youtube for the visual side of things.

  • Wait wait wait….Bailey if there isn’t a “Dark History of Disney” episode then maybe you’d consider making one? 🤞🏾
  • She said “before he was livin la vida loca, he was livin la vida toxica” I’m dead 🤣🤣🤣
  • @joshdove
    You could do an entire video like this on Simon Cowell. One direction, little mix, and fifth harmony all came out of the Simon cowell machine and have pretty dark history’s
  • Bye Bye Bye was actually written about Lou Pearlman after the band was able to get out of their contract with him!
  • @tcoleanderson
    The music starts and my daughter says “YES DARK HISTORY! Watch it now so you can see if it’s one I can watch yet!” We love you Bailey 🖤
  • @brooklyn3253
    I will never forget in the One Direction documentary, the producer woke up Zayn for him to record for him and Zayn said "how long have I been asleep?" and the guy said "15 minutes." Thats insane! I cannot imagine having to do shows, make music, do interviews, interact with fans, rehearse, etc all on 15 minutes of sleep. Then do it all again the next day. Thats rough.
  • @julianne7397
    I'd love a kpop dark history from Bailey's next episode 😁
  • @multi_fan127
    As a K-Pop fan I thank you for also bringing this into the light to american people because we as fans can only do so much and plead their company's to give them breaks! They suffer the most by given horrible diets, and some include long hours of fasting! Thank you, for also acknowledging the unaliving of these kpop idols! Because this more common in this industry then most! Thank you for your acknowledgement! ❤️❤️
  • If you were a history teacher, I wouldn't miss a class, I would also ask for overtime! :)
  • @specialkali
    Bailey: I don’t understand boyband obsessions Also Bailey: gushes over boys from the 90s
  • Man, every time I hear a story starting with Walt Disney, I KNOW it’s gonna be bad. Please do a dark history on Disney!!!!!
  • @May-gy8ik
    Kpop has a whole dark history from which a lot of people could be easily accused of a lot of crimes that go across de border of inhumanity. It's very crazy and the kpop fans that get mad when calling this out are the obsessed ones that also need help, this is clearly a red flag in the industry that many artists from the same have mentioned which left them with trauma for lifetimes. Thank you for mentioning it and bringing attention to it
  • @TVGuild
    You should do a dark history on MLMs!! So many of them it’s crazy and they specifically target women, stay at home moms, college kids, churches, military wives and it’s so awful how they prey on people. Tupperware, Cutco, Mary Kay, Amway, Thrive, Usborne, HerbalLife, scentsy, Avon, Monat, Primerica, Doterra, Isagenix, Lularoe, I could go on
  • @TsukuyomiChi
    Bailey I've been wondering if theres any dark history behind wedding dresses, as I was watching "Say yes to the dress" the other day I caught myself thinking that it doesnt seem to have an end to how many dresses designs we can create, and how did it all started. Would love it if you ever talked about it :)
  • Also three of the New Edition members became Bell Biv Devoe that gave us the party classic Poison
  • Bailey had me the minute she said she liked *NSYNC more than the Backstreet Boys I’m here for it as much as I love her before now I love her even more✨🤍
  • Giiiiirl when you were talking about how every member plays a ‘role’ in the group, I had flashbacks to my teen years of stanning Fifth Harmony. The sweet one, Ally. The bad girl, Lauren, the hot one, Dinah, the quirky relatable one, Camila and the sporty dancer Miss Normani. A Dark History about the mistreatment of girl groups would absolutely smash tbh
  • @KayleyAnneF
    Bailey's younger fans won't fully understand this episode. It really is one for us older folk. . . . . I saw 2 days ago actually that Backstreet Boys are once again back. They're touring
  • My mom was obsessed with New Kids on the Block as a teenager. She still hase this plastic baggie where she put her NKOTB trading cards, gum cassette containers things and newspaper clippings. She even wrote "Don't Touch" on the plastic bag in sharpie
