He and his band 98 Degrees released their self-titled debut album on 29 July 1997, but only became popular with the release of their second album “98 Degrees and Rising” on 20 October 1998; they’ve since released only two more albums: “Revelation” in 2000 and “2.0” in 2013.

Nick began pursuing a career as a solo singer in 2003, with the release of his debut album “SoulO”; he’s since released three albums: “What’s Left of Me” in 2006, “A Father’s Lullaby” in 2013 and “Soundtrack of My Life” in 2014.

Nick’s debut TV series role was playing Tom Jones in the 2004 episode “To Tell the Truth” of the historical family drama “American Dreams”, and the same year saw him make his debut film appearance in the comedy “Hot Momma”. In 2007, he portrayed Dwayne in the popular action crime horror “Rise: Blood Hunter”, which starred Carla Gugino, Michael Chiklis and Lucy Liu, and was written and directed by Sebastian Gutierrez; it follows a reporter who’s awoken in a morgue and learned that she’s become a member of the undead.

Nick’s since had only a couple of roles, with his three most recent having been starring in the 2017 music video “98 Degrees: Season of Love”, voicing various characters in five episodes of the animated short adventure series “Harvey Girls Forever!” from 2018 through 2020 and playing a supporting character in the 2021 episode “Secrets Revealed! Sneak Peek Special” of the reality show “Alter Ego”.

Great question!! It’s actually really fascinating. The Alter Ego is only visible to the cameras so we see them on several different screens surrounding the stage and on the stage.

The family often moved while Vanessa was growing up and she lived in Japan, Germany and various US states; she doesn’t have biological siblings, but rather only an older adopted brother.
