It looks like the world is experiencing BTS fever following the release of the new album Love Yourself: Tear. It's no secret that the boy group already has millions of fans worldwide, but V, RM, Suga, Jin, Jimin, J-Hope, and Jungkook has gained the respect of more celebrity supporters. The Backstreet Boys have just confirmed that they are "huge fans" of the Bangtan Boys.

It has truly been a busy week in the U.S. for BTS. The boy group has already recorded their appearance on The Ellen Show in California as well as The Late Late Show with James Corden. However, the most exciting part of their journey so far has been their awesome meeting with the Backstreet Boys in Las Vegas just ahead of their performance at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards. Not surprisingly, V, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, and Jungkook took home more trophies, thanks to their ever-supportive BTS Army that now includes the Backstreet Boys.

The Backstreet Boys might already have millions of their fans, but that didn't stop the boy band from gushing over BTS in Las Vegas. The official Backstreet Boys Twitter account just posted a picture of AJ McLean, Howie D., Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell posing with V, Jungkook, Jimin, RM, Jin, Suga, and J-Hope. The post confirms that BSB "are such huge fans" of the Bangtan Boys and features the hashtags DontGoBreakingMyHeart and #FakeLove.

The image didn't go unnoticed. The BTS Army immediately reacted to the Backstreet Boys' post, welcoming the boy band into their fandom. The post has already earned more than 661,000 likes and has been retweeted over 283,000 times. The tweet may have helped V, Suga, Jin, RM, Jimin, Suga, Jungkook, and J-Hope in their awesome victory at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas.

There is little doubt that the BTS Army is a force to reckon with. Fans of the Bangtan Boys have once again proven their power by helping the boy group defeat Justin Bieber and Demi Lovato to take the Top Social Artist Award at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards. V, Jungkook, RM, Suga, Jin, J-Hope, and Jimin proudly took the stage to thank their supporters both in English and Korean. The idols are set to perform "Fake Love" from their new album Love Yourself: Tear, which was released on May 18.
