Performing is second nature for R&B group B5 — made up of brothers Dustin, Kelly, Patrick, Carnell and Bryan Breeding —since they have grown up singing and dancing together. This summer, B5 are the opening act for the current Backstreet Boys tour. Brothers Dustin and Kelly spoke exclusively with UInterview to answer some of their fans' questions — especial on their romantic life. "We currently are single. We're dating and moving around," Dustin told Uinterview exclusively.
B5, who previously went by group names TNT Boys and Audio, have been performing as a family since 1998. They changed the name to B5, short for Breeding 5, to honor the Jackson 5 after youngest brother Bryan joined the group in May 2012. The brothers, whose ages range from 16 to 22, were born and raised in Kansas before moving to Florida and then Atlanta, where they have resided since 2001. So how do they come up with their signature dance moves? "We just kind of get a feel for the sound and try to make up moves that help people understand the actual song," Dustin told Uinterview.
We currently are single. We're dating and moving around.
