For the guys of Nickelodeon’s Big Time Rush, headlining the Kids’ Choice Awards was a great ending to an incredible week.

“Our album went gold, ‘Boyfriend’ is a top 40 hit officially, so we’re having one of the best weeks of our lives,” James Maslow told TVGuide.com on the orange carpet. While talking about the song they were performing later in the night, the group shared what they think is the foremost quality in a good boyfriend or girlfriend. Maslow said “communication,” bandmembers Logan Henderson and Kendall Schmidt said spontaneity and chivalry, but for Carlos Pena he thought long and hard before stating, “Kim Kardashian.”

Watch the interview for more, including who the band’s favorite guest star of all time is. Hint: He or she has never been slimed.

The boys of Big Time Rush, Kendall, James, Carlos, and Logan, visited “On Air With Ryan Seacrest” to talk about the success of their music and Nickelodeon show, and to perform an acoustic version of smash hit “Boyfriend” featuring a surprise rapper!

Big Time Rush has become a smash hit television show commanding large audiences. James details the band’s creation, “It was a two year audition process with four national tours, and [Nickelodeon] saw thousands of kids in four screenings. Logan and I were in the first round, then we found Carlos. We actually shot a pilot with someone other then Kendall then a year later finally found Kendall.”

The success of the television’s shows original music spurred interest in their album and even a unique collaboration with rapper Snoop Dogg for their hit “Boyfriend.”“We have to thank his daughter. It started with her. She’s a big fan of the show.” However they are open to more dream collaborations, “We’ve all agreed on Justin Timberlake. We thought that would be really really cool.”

The singer with the rising boy band was impressed with the English girls he met on a visit to the country, and admitted he’s been intrigued by it since he saw Emma play Hermione Granger in the ‘Harry Potter’ film franchise.
He told BANG Showbiz: “British girls are cute, the accent really helps. We had a couple of our fans at the airport and so I tweeted that our British fans were cute, and straight away I got like 6,000 tweets back from the states like, ‘oh – so we’re not cute?’ I was like, no, no, no that’s not what I was saying!
“But I admit, my crush ever since I saw the first ‘Harry Potter’ movie has been Emma Watson. Especially with her short hair, everything I hear about her is so good.”

His bandmate, Kendall Schmidt, said although they’ve had their eyes on some girls, they’ve not thought up any good introductory lines to use on them yet.
He said: “We’re not very big on pick up lines, I like to just say ‘hi’. If I see a girl I like in a bar I’ll just go up and ask her name, I like it when they ask your name first though!”

On Saturday evening, amid a night of new episodes of Victorious and True Jackson VP, Big Time Rush — the fledgling boy-band created by Nickelodeon via the teen-bopping series of the same name — debuted their latest music video for their pop ditty “Boyfriend,” a collaboration with Snoop Dogg. (See EW’s First Look at the Snoop’s guest spot on the series back in November.) And you know what? The song is actually kinda totally infectious and fun — so much so that I can’t get it out of my head for days and days afterward. What I’m saying is: I’m a fan of Big Time Rush. Yes, yes, in the scheme of boy bands of all time, it remains to be seen if Big Time Rush will be remembered like the greats New Kids on the Block and Backstreet Boys and ‘NSYNC. (The real meter of success is: Will I be karaoking “Boyfriend” in 10 years like I karaoked “I Want It That Way” last Saturday night?) But, truly, you never know what Big Time Rush could become, right? Super stardom is possible. Heck, they’re working with Snoop, which is always a good sign.

So with that, I’m happy to bring you a little behind-the-scenes video from the “Boyfriend” music video shoot. In it, the cuties — that’d be Kendall, 20; James, 20; Carlos, 21; and Logan, 21—tell us how and why they made the music video, what it was like working with Snoop, and lots more. And beyond that — in true, teen-zine fandom craziness! — you’ll find some candid answers from the guys on a number of hot-hot-hot topics, ranging from their vices while recording and dream collaborators to what kind of music they listened to while growing up and what boy bands they love. Enjoy!

And now for those quick Q&A sessions with the boys…

JAMES DAVID MASLOW, 20
What boy bands out there do you think are great—and why?
Looking at the past, ‘NSYNC was the greatest in my opinion. They literally spent years rehearsing before they did any major tour and thanks to that, they were a well-oiled machine. Justin Timberlake is a prime example of how a truly talented artist can then transition from a group into a successful solo career, and the lesson I take from that is to never stop training and striving to get better.

Who are your celebrity crushes?
I have had a crush on Emma Watson since the first Harry Potter. No, I haven’t met her yet, but a guy can hope.

What do you look for in a girl?
For me to be interested in a girl, she has to have an outgoing personality and a passion of her own. Low maintenance is nice, too.
