“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.

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.”

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!”

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.

ETonline’s Nicole Dabeau is on the set with the guys of Nickelodeon’s breakout hit “Big Time Rush”!

The series follows the adventures of a group of four young guys making their way in the music world. “We’re not trying to copy anything,” the boys told Nicole, distinguishing themselves from the average boy band. “All four of us have totally different voices and that’s created this band and we’re going with it.”
The show is a huge hit, launching them into stardom in real life too. This past Saturday, their one hour TV movie “Big Time Christmas” — featuring Miranda Cosgrove and Snoop Dogg — premiered with almost 5 million viewers. Now they’re adding even more star power to their ranks!

Russell Brand lends his quirky humor to the mix in a guest-starring role in an upcoming episode. The comedian shows off some fancy dance moves, and even reveals his painting skills!

The hotties of Big Time Rush put on an amazing show this weekend at the Citadel Outlets in Los Angeles. We got a chance to sit down with them before their performance and ask some juicy questions. We wanted to know what the guys do when they’re just hanging out in their dressing rooms. Dying to know?! Watch the video above.

Before the guys hit the stage at the outlets, they hung out with their friends and families. They had fun goofing around with their fans, too! The boys waved out the windows to hundreds of screaming fans before the show started. Later, BTR rocked the stage and even preformed their holiday single, “Beautiful Christmas.” It totally got us pumped for the holidays!

Popstar!: Can you tell me about Big Time Christmas?
James: We were all very very excited about that. It’s a double episode, it’s a movie, and we have a few amazing guest stars. Including Fabio comes back, who plays Santa for a little bit.
Kendall: You can’t really have Big Time Rush without Fabio.
James: You really can’t.
Logan: He’s hilarious.

James: And Miranda Cosgrove, she’s in it as well, guest starring. And last but definitely not least is Snoop Dogg. So we have an amazing line-up of guest stars and some great music, too. We have an original Christmas song called “Beautiful Christmas” that we’re really proud of. And we cover a couple songs.

Popstar!: How was it working with Miranda?
James: It was great. She’s really a sweetheart and it was nice to have a different vibe on set. And with a mostly male staff and an entirely male crew it’s nice to have another girl on set in general.

Popstar!: And it must have been fun going to work in your pajamas.
Kendall: Yeah, of course. Chillin’ with Snoop Dogg in our pajamas was pretty awesome.

Popstar!: Was he a cool guy in person?
Kendall: You know what, he’s just one of the most humble, awesome, most hilarious guys that you’ll ever meet. He was really cool and he had such personal style, I know I remember him walking out on set and everybody was just taken aback because he’s just really a cool guy through-and-through.

Popstar!: What’s your favorite Christmas song of all time?
James: I like [singing] “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose.”

Logan: I don’t know, I like the more classic, you know like choirs do, Christmas songs. I think that’s pretty cool, pretty rock and roll.
