Los Angeles:  Backstreet Boys, comprising AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell, revealed they had a crush on members of Spice Girls in the '90s.

One of the bandmates of the American music group, Aaron Carter admitted to secretly fancying singers Mel B, Mel C, Victoria Beckham, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell, reported Entertainment Tonight.

"I wasn't crushing on them as much as Howie. But they were all super cute and we were around each other a lot over in the UK.

"There were so many parallels, and I like to say it was us, the Spice Girls and Hanson who really broke pop radio around that time, so there's a bond that's there, even though we haven't spent a lot of time together," Carter said.

While AJ said he thought Victoria and Geri were "gorgeous", but claimed Howie talked about Emma "all the time".
