Los Angeles, April 3: Singer Baylee Littrell will be joining his father Brian Littrell and the rest of the Backstreet Boys on the North American leg of their DNA World Tour this summer. The young artiste says it's always been his dream to go on a tour. "Since I was six years old, my dream has always been to go on tour," Littrell, 16, told people.com.

"I wanted to do what my dad did. One of their shows - I think it was the tour after their album 'This Is Us' from 2009 - they went out on the road and I remember right before they went on, I put on one of my dad's jackets from one of his outfits in his dressing room and I stood in front of the mirror. Backstreet Boys ‘I Want It That Way’ Was Sung Beautifully by 1,500 Drunk Strangers & They Nailed It!

"He comes in and is like, 'Hey Bubs, what are you doing?' and I'm like, 'Well I want to be like you'. I asked, 'Can I get up there instead one day?' He was like, 'Well, you never know'. And now the opportunity to open for him and the guys is like that six-year-old self standing in front of that mirror in his dressing room with his jacket on. It's a dream come true," he added.
