00:00So, are you proud of your son?
00:11Of course I am.
00:12So, he's going to do a little country tour, right?
00:14Well, I wouldn't say a little country tour.
00:16I would say that Bailey Littrell is opening up for the Backstreet Boys on the summer leg
00:21of the North American leg, the tour, the DNA World Tour.
00:25So, he's got arenas in his future.
00:28Nice.
00:29How does that feel?
00:30I'm really stoked about it.
00:31Are you scared?
00:32No, I'm not scared.
00:33You're not scared?
00:34He's ready.
00:35He's ready to go.
00:36You know?
00:37You're not going to get Lou Pearlman, right?
00:38No.
00:39No.
00:40I would hope not.
00:41Having a dad like that, you're not going to get Lou Pearlman.
00:42Now, what are you most excited about?
00:43What I'm most excited about?
00:44Honestly, just performing again.
00:45Definitely.
00:46Because I miss it so much and it's what I want to do.
00:47And, literally, by my own choice, I've watched him do it.
00:53I've gone on the road with him for so long.
01:03It's what I want to do my whole life.
01:06It's what you kind of were made for, right there.
01:08I think so.
01:09Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:10You got it in your blood, huh?
01:11In your DNA?
01:12This guy was on...
01:13Hey, I like that.
01:14This guy was on Broadway when he was 13, you know, he was he was nominated for a Drama Desk Award
01:19He's he's a super talented kid. We're super proud as parents, you know, we we pushed music
01:26away, actually we pushed music away from him because we really didn't want him to be involved in music because it's a scary business and
01:34It's a tough cutthroat business
01:36But when he accepted it and he was like, this is what I want to do. That's that's when we were like, okay
01:41You can't deny it and you can't deny this kid's voice. He's got a big baritone voice
01:47He's got a brand new single called don't knock it. It's on the radio right now

02:03I heard on the radio for the first time on the highway last week and I was
02:07Now last question. Do you think you're ever gonna excel your father?
02:12You know what?
02:15I'm not sure
02:17I'll just I'll say one thing is that's that's never my goal. My goal is just to
02:22at the end of the day do what I do be happy and be satisfied and I'm gonna be the best I can be and
02:29my potential is
02:32Extremely great. It's gonna be it's gonna be and I don't say that in an arrogant way, but I am confident
02:39My goal is not to exceed him. It's just to
