The Nickelodeon show Big Time Rush follows four Minnesota hockey players
trying to make it as a boy band; incredibly, the show has led to a hit
album—not to mention a public squabble with a rival group called, sadly,
All Time Low. Dress code: Singer James Maslow’s blow-dried coif suggests
a lesbian Chace Crawford. Dance party: The lack of precision in their
choreography would’ve gotten them fired from 98°. Fan base: Nickelodeon
viewers, nannies, and one young girl who jumped out of a plane with a
btr-emblazoned parachute.
