Big Time Rush beats One Direction in Parade Magazine poll

Big Time Rush, on the cover of Parade Magazine, beat out One Direction in the magazine's first "boy band" poll.


Back in the 90s, I was a big fan of the "boy band" music with 98 Degree, N'Sync and Backstreet Boys. I'm not as familiar with the new crop of bands, although from what I've been hearing I thought One Direction was pretty much the top dog these days. Guess I was wrong...

Any "boy band" fans out there?
