Backstreet Boys setlist: All the blissful pop songs from Sphere Las Vegas residency

USA Today12-07-2025
LAS VEGAS – In the late-'90s, the Backstreet Boys reigned as the princes of pop.
Now, the group of Nick Carter, Brian Littrell, Kevin Richardson, AJ McLean and Howie Dorough hit a new historical height as the first pop group to play the vaunted Sphere in Las Vegas.
For nearly two hours at the July 11 opening concert, the quintet stormed through a 25-song setlist that hammered the necessary hits, from the set opener 'Larger Than Life' to the dance floor closer 'Everybody (Backstreet's Back).' In between, they catered to devotees with album tracks (2005's 'Siberia') and new songs ('Hey,' from their 'Millennium 2.0' album that also arrived July 11) while celebrating their landmark 1999 "Millennium" album.
Given the blank palette of creativity provided by the Sphere, BSB took full advantage of the visual toys at their disposal, including recreating their disc-floating video for 1996's 'Get Down (You're The One for Me).'
This 'Into the Millennium' residency will stick around with 20 more shows through Aug. 24.
Here are all the songs played in Las Vegas.

Backstreet Boy claims 'American Dream' is under attack as he battles sheriff over beach trespassers

Brian Littrell just wants the alleged trespassers on his beach to quit playing games. "This is the American dream," the Backstreet Boys singer told Fox News Digital this week. "Like I've worked for three decades, longer than three decades, in the music business to have some sort of honesty and transparency in my music. You know, music is an emotion that brings all kinds of walks of life together for happiness and joy. And so I think I could walk out on the beach and, you know, people would be like, 'Hey, man, it's nice to meet you,' but just keep it moving, like just keep walking, because that beach access doesn't entitle you to a public beach." The 50-year-old recently sued the Walton County Sheriff's Office in Florida for a writ of mandamus, claiming officials aren't doing their part to help keep trespassers off of his private beach. "It's very frustrating, and this has been a humbling experience, I have to say, because [we're] not getting any help, it's not getting anywhere," Littrell admitted. "Hopefully, we'll get some sort of resolve or some sort of communication that will come out of this that will basically draw the line in the sand, no pun intended, where, 'Hey, just keep it moving. This is private.' We don't want any qualms." BACKSTREET BOYS' BRIAN LITTRELL SAYS BEACH TRESPASSERS ARE 'COMING AFTER' HIS FAMILY AMID FLORIDA LAWSUIT He added, "So, we're about the truth and the law. It's just that simple." Littrell said that he now fears for his safety in his backyard at the beach home where he's lived for three years. "The frustrating thing is that we're not getting any help, you know, we're not getting any law enforcement down there … and we know the law, because we're taxpayers," he said. "It shouldn't be that difficult." The tipping point for him was a couple of weeks ago. "My wife called 911 three times and nobody showed. Nobody showed at all. We had trespassers on our property. They were filming. They were using our stuff and our equipment, and our beach stuff, and, no, she's not gonna walk out there by herself. And the third time she called 911, the dispatch lady hung up on her. So this is a heartfelt plea for all property owners that you have rights. You know, we have rights just like everybody else." WATCH: BACKSTREET BOYS' BRIAN LITTRELL CLAIMS 'AMERICAN DREAM' IS UNDER ATTACK AS HE BATTLES SHERIFF OVER BEACH TRESPASSERS "So, this is a heartfelt plea for all property owners that you have rights. You know, we have rights just like everybody else." — Brian Littrell He said the police are trying to protect the public, "but they forget that we are part of the public, too, because we are beachfront owners. So, there just has to be a line in the sand, no pun intended. There has to some sort of line where we have boundaries." BACKSTREET BOYS SINGER'S FLORIDA BEACH HOME LAWSUIT FOLLOWS SYLVESTER STALLONE'S BATTLE OVER WATERFRONT ESTATE The Walton County Sheriff's Office told Fox News Digital it doesn't "comment on pending litigation," adding it "prides itself on handling every situation, call for service, or interaction with professionalism using a customer service approach. This has always been our philosophy and will continue to be moving forward." Peter Ticktin, Littrell's lawyer, told Fox News Digital that they had already won a lawsuit to prove that Brian owned the beach behind his house, but "They're still coming, they're still there, because they have a purpose in mind." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS Ticktin claimed the alleged trespassers believe that someone who works hard shouldn't necessarily have the right to have their own private beach. "The fact is that if you've got talent, and you work really, really hard, you get to be someplace in this world where you can afford to buy a piece of property, and it's yours," he said. "That's the American dream. And to have these people invade his backyard and then to have the sheriffs come and talk to them and tell them they can stay there only encourages them to do more and more wrong, to the point where they actually are assaulting the security people that had to be hired to be able to protect the property." He added, "They hate entitlement, but they're the ones that are seemingly claiming an entitlement to not only be where they don't belong, but to assault people in the process." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Littrell said his American Dream was to own a little beach home "that we could go and enjoy and watch the sunset and take pictures and live out memories." He continued, "I'm in my 50s now … I mean, come on. Like, I want to start slowing down a little bit and I want to start enjoying life and I don't want to make the news for this kind of stuff. It's just, it's kind of frustrating. I want to make news about positive music that's changing the world, because we're still at it. We're still doing great, and that's a blessing. And it's like, just because I work hard for it, it's not entitled to everybody else." Littrell said he had no intention to sell the house. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "We have a tiny little piece of paradise that we literally prayed for. I mean, we seriously prayed for a place like this for almost 30 years," he said, adding, "The beach makes you feel small. So, you know, it's a great place to write songs, too. And you feel smaller than life when you go to the beach. You don't feel larger than life. You feel smaller than life. You know, I don't wanna be chased out of an area that I love."

This Nevada City Was Just Named a Las Vegas Dupe—Offering Casino Culture at a Fraction of the Price

Summertime in Las Vegas certainly delivers the fun. Take this year as the perfect example, with the Backstreet Boys in town for their residency at the Sphere, Bruno Mars at the Park MGM, and pool parties galore, there's something for everyone in Sin City. However, spending a summer vacation in Vegas can come with a hefty price tag. According to Budget Your Trip, the average cost of a week-long stay in Vegas will run about $2,583 for a solo traveler. And that's without major ticket items. So, what's one to do? It's easy: visit a Las Vegas dupe. Travel dupes are those lesser-known destinations that are very similar to other, more popular spots, offering entertainment, dining, and fun that's nearly identical at a lower price point. In July, travel and entertainment experts at a platform for casino and gaming insights, unveiled its list of five budget-friendly destinations in the U.S. that deliver the "thrills, entertainment, and casino action Vegas is famous for." "These alternatives prove you don't need to break the bank to experience world-class gaming, vibrant nightlife, and memorable entertainment," the team added. No. 2 on that list is also rather close to Las Vegas: Reno, Nevada. "Known as 'The Biggest Little City in the World,' Reno delivers authentic Nevada casino culture without the inflated Strip prices," the team wrote. "You're still getting that desert casino atmosphere, but hotel rooms often cost half of what you'd pay in Vegas, and restaurant prices are significantly more reasonable." It added that Reno's downtown casino district is very walkable and far more compact than the Strip, "which makes it easy to hop between venues. Reno also offers outdoor activities like Lake Tahoe access, giving you more bang for your vacation buck." The only destination to outrank Reno is a bit of a wildcard: Kansas City, Missouri. "The Heart of America delivers surprising casino excitement with multiple gaming destinations and entertainment venues at prices that make Vegas look overpriced," the team wrote. "Kansas City's casino resorts offer spacious rooms for less than half of what you'd pay on the Strip, and the city's famous barbecue scene means you'll eat like royalty without the premium pricing." It noted that, beyond offering all the table games and slots you may be looking for, the city comes with the bonus of plenty of Midwest hospitality and a fantastic live music scene that provides "entertainment options that go well beyond the casino floor." Also joining these two on the list is Biloxi, Mississippi, which provides a unique coastal backdrop to your gaming; Laughlin, Nevada, which the team called a "more relaxed, affordable version of the Nevada casino experience; and Tunica, Mississippi, which "has reinvented itself as a major casino destination in the Mississippi Delta." Though if you can swing it, nothing beats a true Vegas experience. And if you need a little help on how to do it right, here's Travel + Leisure's guide on how to plan the perfect trip to Las Vegas for the summer of 2025.
