Backstreet’s back — this time, with the Rockettes! The Backstreet Boys had some fun with the Radio City Rockettes in a new TikTok video from the iconic dance group.
In the viral clip shared on Thursday (Dec. 5), Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, Brian Littrell and Kevin Richardson put a “precision dance spin” on their 1997 hit, “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back),” pairing up with the Rockettes as they lead them in the fun, festive choreography.

Both the Rockettes and Backstreet Boys performed during NBC’s annual Christmas in Rockefeller Center telecast earlier this week on Dec. 4. The “As Long As You Love Me” group took the stage to perform a heartwarming rendition of Nat King Cole’s holiday classic “The Christmas Song (Merry Christmas to You),” as well as “Christmas in New York” and an updated version of “Last Christmas.”
The Rockettes, meanwhile, delivered their iconic eye-height kicks while performing a “Christmas Lights” medley in the same gold fringe mini dresses as in the TikTok.
The Backstreet Boys are no strangers to embracing the holiday season, as they released their own festive album, A Very Backstreet Christmas, back in 2022. The LP — which marked the group’s first collection of yuletide songs and its first studio effort in three years — peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard 200 following its release. The album includes holiday tracks such as “Christmas in New York,” “White Christmas,” “Silent Night,” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.”
“Christmas in New York” is one of three original Christmas songs on the album; the others are titled “Together” and “Happy Days.”
