A boy band is a group of usually young, attractive teenaged boys who are created with the idea of appealing to the teenage girls of that era. There have been many to come and go throughout the years which started as solo careers, as television stars or even as brothers. Boy bands will always be relevant for as long as there are teenaged girls who will love their music. Usually the music they produce are pop hits, ones you'd hear at a sweet sixteen. Below are my list of the top 5 boy bands by personal preference and not grossing.

5. 5 Seconds of Summer

Though still fairly new, the band has a large fan base and a couple top hits on the charts.They currently are the new faces of pop-punk music and are taking the music industry by storm.

4. 'N Sync

Most girls born in 1990 and on will always have a soft spot for the 'N Sync boys, where Justin Timberlake started his career. These boys formed 'N Sync in 1995 and performed at the Super Bowl in 2001.

3. One Direction

Even with Zayn leaving and Harry starting a solo career, we can't help but love their music and the amazing story behind how they all started as a band thanks to Simon Cowell. Time certainly goes by fast once you realize One Direction was formed in 2010. The band has changed, but their music remains the upbeat pop it always was. For a boy band to last this long is definitely a milestone.

2. Backstreet Boys

I might be a little bias since they're the first CD I've ever had, but you can't help but stop and sing along whenever a Backstreet Boys song plays on the radio. Also, with their recent performances, you can't help but fall back in love with them! Recently they performed with Meghan Trainor on Greatest Hits, the television show.

1. Jonas Brothers

Despite their tragic break up, don't worry we forgive you Nick, the Jonas Brothers have a special place in all of our hearts. We got to watch as Nick and Joe found their own voices in music and Kevin settled down for the domestic life. Though no longer performing in a single band, the family bond has never lost its strength. They were formed in 2005 and sadly broke up in 2013.
