For years, *NSYNC has been teasing us with a reunion, but they have never given us a definitive answer on when, or if, it will happen.
Recently, Joey Fatone appeared on the Howie Mandel Does Stuff podcast, and the America’s Got Talent Judge asked him if it is happening.
Without hesitation, the singer said, “As of right now, no.”
Then he went on to explain that he, Lance Bass, Chris Kirkpatrick, J.C. Chasez, and Justin Timberlake have other things going on with their lives, like young kids and solo projects, they are too old, and they can’t decide what to do if they were to reunite. As Fatone said, “Everyone is all over the place. They’re not in sync.”
And that is why the Backstreet Boys are, were, and will always be a better band. They care more about their fans than about themselves.
I mean, Joey said it is not totally out of the cards. They will revisit in, like, a decade. But by then, it will be like the Pussycat Dolls, as in who cares? Do you even care now?
Granted, they could reunite sooner. How? If they need the money. Money is always the biggest deciding factor with reunions like this one or for the Spice Girls.
Final thought. I think that Timberlake is always the one saying no to any type of reunion. I can see him thinking he is too big to do one. When in reality, it would probably help his image, which has completely tanked since that Janet Jackson moment at the Super Bowl.
Boy Bands looked like they were living glamorous lives on MTV and in magazines, but there was a lot of ugliness going on behind the scenes. Joey Fatone and fellow ’90s Boy Banders are finally telling their truth in Boy Band Confidential.
Fatone will be joined by *NSYNC member Lance Bass, AJ McLean of Backstreet Boys, Nick Lachey of 98 Degrees, Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men, Ashley Parker Angel of O-Town, Brad Fischetti of LFO, and a few more.
“Being in a boy band was one of the greatest experiences of my life, but it also came with challenges we didn’t always understand at the time,” said BOY BAND CONFIDENTIAL Executive Producer, Joey Fatone. “This project gave all of us a chance to reflect, to be honest, and to share what really happened behind the spotlight.”
They were huge stars who looked like they were living the dream, but in interviews, they will talk about the abuse, addiction, and financial manipulation that we didn’t know about until now, and discover they were living a nightmare.
What will the boys reveal to us? Find out on April 13th and April 14th on ID.
The two-night, four-hour event is part of the Hollywood Demons series, which will be back for a second season starting on April 20th. The second season will tackle The Jerry Springer Show, Saved by the Bell, and 16 and Pregnant, child stars whose success propelled them into shocking adult trajectories, and celebrity doctors who over prescribed to death.
Before Joey Fatone was singing on stage to millions of fans, he told the host Phil Moore on Nick Arcade that he only sings in the shower. How cute was the 15-year-old in that 1992 episode?
Joey Fatone is in New York City, starring in Broadway’s And Juliet, and he sometimes takes the subway to get around.
So, imagine the surprise of his fans when they see him under the streets of the city; they get excited. After a few of his fans said, “Hi! Hi! Hi,” they asked him to do the Bye, Bye, Bye Dance with them. And he obliged.
They were so in synch with the *NSYNC singer, I think they were almost better than that band and him doing it. What do you think?
Justin Timberlake had a concert in Anaheim the other night, and some of his old friends came out to see him.
Who are they? Chris Kirkpatrick, Lance Bass, and JC Chasez drove down to see him.
But there was someone missing. Where was Joey Fatone? Is he out of the band? Nope, he was in New York City making his Broadway debut in & Juliet. Hopefully, the guys will go see Joey on stage just like they did Justin.
Maybe when Fatone is done on the Great White Way, and Timberlake is finished touring, they can reunite as a band and get it over with.
