A.J. MacLean of Backstreet Boys fame has reportedly checked himself into a rehab facility to deal with drug and alcohol problems.
"For personal reasons, I've checked myself into a rehab clinic," the singer said in an official statement. "With 2011 being a busy year for Backstreet, I want to be healthy and perform and sing for people at my very best and happiest. None of this will affect our current tour plans and I look forward to seeing everyone really soon! Thank you for all of your support and respecting my family and friends privacy during this time."
McLean has a long history of drug and alcohol abuse, but had reportedly been sober since his last rehab stint back in 2002.
