The 'Big Time Rush' From Average Teen To Pop Sensation

Carlos Pena, Logan Henderson, Kendall Schmidt and James Maslow stopped by the studio to talk about their starring roles in Nickelodeon's next big TV series Big Time Rush.

Big Time Rush is a new TV show about friendship, brotherhood and the making and breaking-of a potential chart topping boy band. In a twist of a "rags to riches" story, the new series centers on four best friends from Minnesota who find themselves caught up in a whirlwind of life changing events -- going from playing hockey to the next big pop sensation.

All four boys have their own personality. There’s Kendall who doesn't really want to be a star but naturally has what it takes, then there’s James who wants to be famous and is hilarious as a self-involved pretty boy, And, Carlos who is the concerned one of the group and is always ready to fight for his friends while Logan is the comic relief with the nervous tension of a young Gustavo Rocque, the ego-maniacal record producer. Original produced music will be incorporated into the series, thanks to its partnership with Sony Music Entertainment

The series premiere of Big Time Rush is on January 18 on Nickelodeon. For more information, visit www.nick.com.
