ROLL CALL: Ryan Gosling Almost The Sixth Backstreet Boy?

Your Daily Dispatch of Celebrity Shenanigans

Best Thing That Never Happened: In some, “Phew! So glad that never happened” news – Ryan Gosling was almost a member of the Backstreet Boys – well, he was at least there at the group’s inception. “When I was doing the ‘Mickey Mouse Club,’ we were living in the same place as that guy A.J. from the Backstreet Boys,” Ryan told Celebuzz, referring to his time on the Disney show from 1993 to 1995. “They were just forming that band, so he was saying how big they were going to be… we were like, it’s never going to happen. Didn’t they already do that with New Kids? You’re a little late. Cut to… I was wrong.” But is Ryan sad he’s didn’t get on the BSB train? “They’re not returning my calls,” he joked. “I try not to think about it… You can’t live in the past. You’ve got to live in the now. That ship has sailed.” Fear not Ryan, BSB still has space for you! “I want to say to Mr. Ryan Gosling, I am so sorry I didn’t call you back, dude,” A.J. McLean told TMZ. “If we ever want a sixth Backstreet Boy, I’m gonna call you.”
