Backstreet Boys + Anime + Group of guys = Hilarious!

(CBS) - This is one of those videos that you have to see to believe, but it turns out that when you mix the Backstreet Boys with some anime and a fun-loving group of guys, you end up with a truly EPIC and hilarious video! Watch to find out what I mean.

I'm not sure if it's the song, the perfect emulation of expressions by the guys to the anime or just the insanity of the anime singing the Backstreet Boys (probably all of the above), but this video is Internet gold in this blogger's humble opinion.

I couldn't stop laughing while watching and hope you all did, too. Make sure to rock your body right and have a wonderful weekend, everybody!

UPDATE: We do our best at The Feed to make sure our content is accurate, and saw that two commenters have given some insight into this video that we want to include for context.

Commenter KaitoNii writes:

This "anime" is from the multi-model version Miku Miku Dance(or MMD), a 3D program to pose "anime" characters made of data. This MMD portion of the video was originated from NicoNicoDouga, a Japanese youtube.

And commenter MisuCake writes:

Well they aren't really from any anime, Reimu (Left) is from the PC bullet hell shooter Touhou. Haruka Nana (Middle) is a UTAU, a digital singer. Rin (Right) is a Vocaloid, virtual singer. The video is made in MikuMikuDance, an animation program.

We definitely always try to give credit where it is due, and want to thank KaitoNii and MisuCake for the information and heads up!
