The Backstreet Boys Show Off A Different Kind Of Hit

Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean just became a first-time dad in late November, but it looks as if his bandmate Nick Carter wants to make sure he won't be having any more kids.

At a recent photo shoot, the Boys were clowning around, resulting in photographer Tyler Shields capturing this clip for his YouTube channel. In it, Carter--there's no delicate way to put it--slams McLean in a very sensitive area with a baseball bat.

Ouch. Now, we know the Backstreet Boys have tons of hits, but this isn't the kind of hit anyone was expecting.

As a further bit of goofiness, fellow BSB'er Kevin Richardson hops in on the fun, commenting favorably on McLean's, er, hardiness. (Sure, he can do that. It's not him getting hit in the junk--we doubt he'd "want it that way.")

The Backstreet Boys will be celebrating their 20th anniversary in April with a new album--as well as embark on a world tour starting in May. Keep up with their schedule here.
