I loved your 22 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: wedding special. This is how she talks? Was you ever 23 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 2: considered doing a reality show? 24 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 3: Where is she from? Exactly? I don't know. How do 25 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 3: they talk like the. 26 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: It sounds like your your blueth Iceland character mixed with 27 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: someone from Georgia in eighteen eighty eight. 28 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: Well, she's from Georgia in eighth and eighty eight, but 29 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: she spent a summa in Iceland. He loves the auction 30 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: and has adopted as her personality. 31 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: We gotta get Rachel on the show. She sounds very interesting. 32 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: It's all right, all right. The wedding special, Yes, loved 33 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: doing that. It took us a while to agree to 34 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: do that because you know, in this business, when you 35 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: do a wedding special, and especially a ten year anniversary 36 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: remarry thing, what do you call that? Oh, you do 37 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,639 Speaker 1: your vowel. It's never a good thing for the wedding. 38 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: It's like the kiss of death for a relationship. So 39 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: that's what always went through my head. I'm like, no, 40 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: if we have a wedding special, that's just like the 41 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: kiss of death, and that's just you know, asking to 42 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: get divorced in the next next year. But then, you know, 43 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: we got convinced to do it because of the bigger picture. 44 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's the first you know, gay wedding special 45 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: on television, and I felt like that's you know, people 46 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: youn't need to see that, especially if a family from 47 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: my hometown of Mississippi, you know where, and especially at 48 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: that time, same sex marriage was not even legal, so 49 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: you know, we were still trying to convince people that 50 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: we're not going to destroy the world if we get 51 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: married to the person that we love. So I'm very 52 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: happy that we ended up doing that. I wish I 53 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: could go back and enjoy it a little more because 54 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 1: it just really and all of those that are married, 55 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure you have the same feeling. It just flew 56 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: by so quickly and you're talking to everyone and you 57 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: just you don't know, you don't really get to enjoy 58 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: the moment because you're kind of there for everyone else. 59 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: So I think if we went back, I would really 60 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: enjoy the moment more, and I would actually eat something. 61 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: I know, I would actually have a drink and have 62 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: a drink drink. 63 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 64 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, I loved it, and look our 65 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: ten years coming up, so maybe we can Oh wait, no, 66 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: that's the kiuse of death. 67 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 3: We can't do that.

One of the guys that was 845 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 6: in the band at Kaika quit and he quit after 846 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 6: I don't know, maybe like three fourths of the filming 847 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 6: for season one was done, and then I came for 848 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 6: the last quarter and I remember it was the day 849 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 6: that everybody got handed their checks, and through some oversight, 850 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 6: when it came time to give checks, the check that 851 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 6: I got was the exact same amount that all of 852 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 6: the other guys in the band got. And I remember 853 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 6: thinking I only did a quarter the word that these 854 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 6: guys did, but I got the same check that they got. 855 00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 6: So I was kind of thinking they didn't know what 856 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 6: to do with the Kaika was money, they just gave 857 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 6: it to me. 858 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,479 Speaker 5: I was happy with that, I think. 859 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 3: So you like that. 860 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: I think, so I hope Kai is not listening to 861 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: this right now. 862 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 5: I know, I know, well it's thattual limitation. 863 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, but why did a Kaika leave the group? 864 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever asked this question. 865 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 5: If I don't know, I've never actually talked to him. 866 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:20,919 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's kind of weird. 867 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 6: We I mean we've only passed across paths a handful 868 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 6: of times.

No one really, I mean 1093 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 1: half people have cell phones, so it was easier to 1094 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: get around. What was it like being a teen idol 1095 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 1: at such an early age and just kind of like overnight. 1096 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 6: I had a really hard time with it. I really 1097 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 6: struggle with it because again I don't really like people. 1098 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 6: I liked the little bit of time when was on stage. 1099 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 6: I like being on stage. 1100 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 3: But I did you have a girlfriend at the time. 1101 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 6: I did have a girlfriend at a time that didn't 1102 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 6: last long after we got in the band, and I 1103 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 6: actually had I actually married my high school sweetheart, So 1104 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 6: the one that I met in show choir, we had 1105 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 6: split up for a little bit in college, and then 1106 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 6: we got back together after I joined the band, So 1107 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 6: we're going on twenty. 1108 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 5: Years now marriage. 1109 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 6: So that's kind of crazy. But all I've ever wanted 1110 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 6: to be, and this is the god's honest truth. I've 1111 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,360 Speaker 6: just always wanted to be normal, Like I just I 1112 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 6: never when I'm on stage, I like being the pop star, 1113 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 6: but when I'm off stage, I hated it. So like, 1114 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 6: I did everything I could, and I maybe even came 1115 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 6: off like a like a dick sometimes that you know, 1116 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 6: to people, because I just did everything I could to. 1117 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 5: Avoid the spot, right. 1118 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 6: I let the other guy take the lead on that. 1119 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,439 Speaker 6: It was like, oh, there's an interview, go ahead, Trev, 1120 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 6: you got this one. I'm gonna go this way. 1121 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of us are just not built for that. 1122 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: Some are just true musicians and just like to do 1123 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: the art. And yeah, I have this very you know, 1124 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: normal life. I am not that person. I like and 1125 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 1: I like to be a goop fall and I like 1126 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 1: to be stupid in front of a camera. But jc' 1127 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 1: is that that way? 1128 00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 3: You know. 1129 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 1: J C never cared for interviews or being out in 1130 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: public or you know, any of the attention at all. 1131 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,279 Speaker 1: He just really cared about just the music. So yeah, 1132 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: I mean everyone has their own way of handling things. 1133 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 3: But that's a good part of a group, you know, 1134 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 3: it'd be if you had everybody like thirsting for the camera, 1135 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,240 Speaker 3: it would just be the most annoying group in the world. 1136 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,320 Speaker 3: You know, you need to have you need different personalities 1137 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 3: to attract different people. You know, there was a lot 1138 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,400 Speaker 3: of people that like the quieter. 1139 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: And see I'm opposite now, so in the group. If 1140 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 1: you watch me in any interviews, I am the most 1141 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 1: boring person you've ever heard in an interview. I didn't 1142 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 1: say a word, and. 1143 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 3: You're very monogential. I don't know, and. 1144 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 1: Now you know me today is completely polar opposite of 1145 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: what my personality was in this band. But that's also 1146 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,480 Speaker 1: because I can be myself. You know, I was just 1147 00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: hiding something you were hiding, Yeah, exactly, like to find out. 1148 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 1: So in two thousand and three, the group disbanded. Now 1149 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 1: did you know this was coming? Did you embrace this 1150 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,720 Speaker 1: because you like more of a private life? 1151 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 5: Did I know it was coming? No? For us, we 1152 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 5: didn't know that the group was like breaking up. You know. 1153 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 6: It's like we had spent like three to four years 1154 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 6: of like working our butts off every single day for 1155 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 6: like literally four straight years, and we had never gotten 1156 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 6: to the point where we could just say, you know, 1157 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 6: what like we need like a couple months off, a 1158 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:38,840 Speaker 6: little just. 1159 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 3: A little bit out of sight, out of mind. 1160 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 6: And so we and so we took we took a breath, 1161 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,320 Speaker 6: and it was just it wasn't even like a breakup. 1162 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,799 Speaker 6: It was just like we decided we all needed to 1163 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 6: just just go our separate ways a little bit and 1164 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 6: relax and like reset families and reset.
