Today, I would like to take a moment to say happy 34th birthday to the man who always knows the right words to say, at the right time, in the right key-- my favorite bad boy, AJ McLean.
Sixteen years ago, when I was in elementary school, I fell in love with a teenage boy with big brown eyes (often hidden behind sunglasses) and a raspy voice that was unmistakeable. I, along with thousands of girls around the world, feel that we have (in a sense) grown up together. I have watched AJ go from being a brunette, to a blonde, to a red-head, to having blue hair, to having corn rows... I have watched him slowly break out of the "boy band" image and develop his own personal style. Now, AJ is as gorgeous as ever, with a slight rocker's edge and colorful tattoos all over.

...And the AJ I love even more now.

AJ's decision to live a substance-free lifestyle, as well as the courage he has displayed by sharing this journey with others, continues to inspire me. I am so incredibly proud of the man he has become. Less than a month ago, AJ walked down the aisle as a sober man to marry his soulmate. (SO excited to have Ro in the BSB family; she is wonderful.)

So, here's to AJ- the man who keeps getting better with age. May this year be even better than the last, may you enjoy every moment of being a newlywed and may you find strength in times of temptation. Thank you for sharing your gifts, thank you for sharing your life, thank you for sharing your love and your passion. Happy birthday, to the man who will always be #1 in my book. You rock! #ProudSkullee
Love this! Well said Brit! #ProudSkullee
