Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block stars form duo for album and tour
Backstreet Boys star Nick Carter and New Kids on the Block's Jordan Knight have formed a duo.
The pop partnership is called Nick & Knight and they will release an album later this year before touring North America.
Carter told Good Morning America: "We're almost pretty much done with the album. It's a bunch of our pop, rock, R&B and urban. It's all mixed together to create Nick & Knight."
The duo's self-titled record will be released on September 2 and fans who pre-order it will get a download of the song 'Just The Two Of Us'.
