What's Happening?
The Backstreet Boys have shared a behind-the-scenes look at their T-Mobile Super Bowl commercial, which features a reimagined version of their hit song 'I Want It That Way.' Filmed in New York City during a snowstorm, the shoot was condensed into one long day due to weather conditions. Despite the challenges, the production was described as a collaborative and creative effort. The commercial, directed by Steve Pink, includes appearances by Druski, Pierson Fodé, and a comedic cameo by Machine Gun Kelly.
