London: American band Backstreet Boys have supported the decision of metal band Korn to boycott British Petroleum`s fuel as a mark of protest against the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

"I`m devastated by what I`ve seen first hand and on the news. I`ve always been a marine activist and seeing pictures of oil-covered animals breaks my heart," said Nick Carter. Brian Littrell, another member of the of the band, said: "We just played Biloxi last week and I have to tell you people are really worried down there. This boycott is about making a statement, letting people know how we feel and to stand for something." IANS
