Lance Bass plans to bring his toddler twins to his home state of Mississippi to visit family this summer. Then, like loads of other parents, he plans to leave the kids with the grandparents so he can enjoy some much-needed alone time with his husband.

"They're going to have summer camp with my parents," Bass told Insider.

The former *NSYNC singer and his husband, Michael Turchin, are dads to Violet Betty and Alexander James, who were born via surrogate in October 2021. Now that the twins are nearly 2, Bass says he's seeing more of their personalities - especially Alexander's mischievous side.

"They're trying to get into as much trouble as they can right now," he said. "He's such an instigator to her. He's always bugging her. That's going to be his thing going forward."

As for the terrible twos, Bass isn't very worried.

"They're very ornery, especially my son," Bass says. "But that's OK - I like ornery."

Now that [almost] all of the members of *NSYNC are fathers, it's only fitting that Lance Bass receives great parenting advice from his former band members.

"Every gives me a different outlook on parenthood, but Justin [Timberlake] gives me great advice. His kids are eight and two now, so being able to watch them grow has been really funny because his kids have opposite personalities like mine. As a parent, you're seeing two completely different personalities, and it was helpful for me to hear it from someone else," the 44-year-old exclusively tells OK! while talking about his partnership with Duracell and their joint mission to get safer batteries into the homes of more Americans this summer.

"You have to parent them differently, and you have to give them their own space and time," the dancer continues. "Especially with twins - they are 24/7 connected to each other since they were in the womb. It's really important for them to feel their own identity, so keep having your alone time with them. It's important and makes them grow into their personality."

Aside from Timberlake, there's another member who had some wise words of wisdom.

"Chris Kirkpatrick advised me to wait and enjoy these moments because time flies by so quickly," the singer, who was in the '90s boy band with Timberlake, Kirkpatrick, J.C. Chasez and Joey Fatone, shares.

Duracell, one of the leading battery manufacturers in the world, today announced the launch of their #BitterIsBetter Campaign to encourage parents and caregivers to swap out the lithium coin batteries in their home for a safer alternative during National Safety Month this June. Joining forces with musician and celebrity dad, Lance Bass, Duracell is encouraging parents to take the #BitterIsBetter Pledge to replace their lithium coin batteries with Duracell Lithium Coin Batteries with Bitter Coating (2032, 2025 and 2016), the safest lithium coin battery.

As part of the program, Duracell is urging parents to visit Duracell.com/BitterisBetter to take the #BitterIsBetter Pledge to learn more about lithium coin battery safety and replace the lithium coin batteries in their homes with the safest option for kids. Duracell has additionally released a new educational video featuring Bass on the importance of this topic and keeping these batteries out of children's reach.

"When I became a parent, I suddenly became more aware of everything I needed to do to make my home that much safer for my twins. My first priority is to keep my kids safe, but I didn't realize the hidden danger items like lithium coin batteries can pose," said Bass. "I took the Duracell #BitterIsBetter Pledge to educate myself and other parents who may not be aware of the dangers, and will be switching out the lithium coin batteries in my home to the safer choice - Duracell Lithium Coin batteries with bitter coating. Making the switch gives me some comfort that I'm doing everything I can to help protect my kids."

Justin Timberlake got a Father's Day card from one of his kids that he won't soon forget.

On June 18, Timberlake's wife, Jessica Biel, shared a photo on Instagram of a card their 8-year-old son, Silas, gave to his dad that was short on letters, but long on heart.

"Happy F Day! I love you. Love Silas," the orange card with red writing read.

Biel posted the card, along with a trio of other photos featuring Silas and her younger son, Phineas, in honor of Father's Day.

Justin Timberlake can't stop the Father's Day feeling!

The singer, 42, shared an emotional Instagram post honoring both his father, Randall Timberlake, and stepfather, Paul Harless on Sunday.

"When I became a dad, I realized what an important role these two incredible humans have played in my life," Timberlake, who shares sons Phineas, 2, and Silas, 8, with wife Jessica Biel, began in the post's caption.

The sweet series of photos showed the singer alongside his father and stepfather at various events over the years, doing everything from dancing at weddings to golfing. "I'm so very grateful to have not ONE but TWO dads to learn from and lean on. I love you both so much!!" the former *NSYNC member continued in the caption.

"Happy Father's Day to all the Dads, Daddies, and Papas out there!!! " he finished.

When DreamWorks purchased the "Trolls" franchise in 2013, it seemed like an odd revival. The furry creatures had been lost in the 1990's after being the toy fad of a generation.

Since then, DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures managed to turn this IP back into a multi-million dollar success story, powered by catchy songs from star-studded casts and topped with glitter, lots of it. Clips from the third film, due to be released on Nov. 17 in the U.S, were presented Thursday at France's Annecy Animation Festival, the world's biggest toon fest, in front of an electrified audience.

Introduced by director Walt Dohrn and producer Gina Shay (returning for their third "Trolls" film together), along with co-director Tim Heitz, the whimsical world of "Trolls Band Together" unveiled itself as a richer and brighter universe than ever, leaving fans' eyes sparkling.

"We wanted to go even further than the previous films," said Dohrn, "by expanding the world we created and bringing more of our influences such as 'Yellow Submarine,' 'The Wall.' And every Boys Band there is, from Backstreet Boys to *NSYNC."

A world where duo Branch and Poppy (Timberlake and Kendrick), now an item, face superstar villains Velvet and Veneer to save Branch's long-lost brother, while resurrecting legendary Trolls Band BroZone. With five original songs by Justin Timberlake and composer Theodore Shapiro, pop-loving teenagers who like Timberlake look to be in for a real treat.

Boy band members are uniting as singers and dads for an important cause just in time for Father's Day.

Lance Bass of *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean, as well as LFO's Brad Fischetti and O-Town members Jacob Underwood, Erik-Michael Estrada, and Dan Miller, came together recently to show their support for On Our Sleeves, the national movement encouraging conversations about children's mental health.

In this heartwarming clip exclusive to Access Hollywood, the group shared their thoughts on the importance of providing safe and happy environments for our children.

Lance, who shares 1-year-old twins Violet and Alexander with husband Michael Turchin, explained why he wants to do his part as a father to normalize the topic of children's mental health.

"It's all about having conversation about all of this, and bringing it out into the open, and not being taboo about it," he said.

Adding, "When my kids get older, I want them to know that I'm always going to be there for them, respect them, see them and hear them. It's crucial that we, as parents, have the fundamental knowledge and tools to use when heavy conversations arise and On Our Sleeves provides free, easy-to-use, expert created guides and resources we need to start those conversations."

Lance Bass claims Britney Spears' team contacted him so she could meet his twins, only to never hear from them again.

"She has reached out through her people, wanting to meet the kids and all that," the *NSYNC alum said on his iHeartRadio podcast, "Frosted Tips," Monday while interviewing music manager Johnny Wright.

However, Bass, 44, alleged that the "Toxic" singer, 41, flaked on him when her handlers put a "stop" to the meeting.

"You have to talk through people," he shared of communicating with Spears. "It's very strange."

The former boy band member became a father in October 2021 when he and his husband, Michael Turchin, welcomed son Alexander and daughter Violet via surrogate.

Spears was still under a conservatorship at the time.

Vice TV is once again expanding its "Dark Side" franchise with a new spinoff that should hit close to home for millennial audiences in particular: "Dark Side of the 2000s."

Premiering July 18 at 10 p.m., the 10-episode season will cover aughts subjects including the radio wars between Howard Stern and Opie & Anthony, "TRL," the rise of TMZ, Lindsay Lohan, Charlie Sheen's "Two and a Half Men" conflict, "Jon & Kate Plus 8," "The Bachelor," Siegfried & Roy and men's lifestyle magazines, or "lad mags."

Readers can view the trailer for "Dark Side of the 2000s" below, which features clips of interviews with Tara Reid, Jon Gosselin, Chris Kirkpatrick, Quddus and Kelly Stables.

"Boys No More," an ultimate boy band combination comprising pop culture icons Joey Fatone from *NSYNC, Nick Lachey from 98 Degrees, Joey McIntyre of New Kids On The Block, and Wanya Morris of Boyz II Men, recorded a fun music video, "Make it Right." The full-length original song, which includes catchy lyrics and an infectious melody, was developed in partnership with CSAA Insurance Group, a AAA insurer - and is sure to be at the top of everyone's playlist this summer.

"I've known these guys for most of my career and we have become friends. When I got the call from CSAA I knew our chemistry would come through in the song and video," said Joey Fatone. Wanya Morris added, "After we recorded the song, we all felt like we were taking a trip down memory lane while telling the AAA Insurance story."

"Make it Right" speaks to the company's commitment to its customers to prevent, prepare for and recover from life's uncertainties. The full music video is available on YouTube today, with additional behind-the-scenes moments and dance and karaoke challenges featured on Instagram and TikTok @OfficialBoysNoMore.

Timed with the start of the summer season, Boys No More is launching on TikTok and Instagram with a dance and karaoke challenge. Fans - new and original - of Fatone, Lachey, McIntyre and Morris can join the excitement surrounding the release of the song and music video by following @OfficialBoysNoMore on Instagram and TikTok using the hashtags #BoysNoMore and #MakeItRight.

Additionally, mobile billboards and stadium advertising will be live in Baltimore, Cincinnati, Hartford, Indianapolis, Oklahoma City, Philadelphia, Tulsa and Washington DC.

West Hollywood bar owner and former *NSYNC singer Lance Bass joined KTLA's live broadcast of the 2023 WeHo Pride Parade and shared his thoughts on Pride celebrations, the LGBTQ+ community and coming out.

"The temperature right now for the LBGTQIA is very hostile," Bass said. "Pride is a protest, it started as a protest and it's still a protest."

Bass credits the West Hollywood community for allowing him to truly express himself and also recognized LGBTQ+ allies for their support.

"We love our allies, [they are] what really helps advance our community," Bass said. "If it wasn't for the allies, we would not have advanced as quickly.

More than 100,000 people turned out for 2023's edition of the WeHo Pride Parade, which honors and celebrates the LBGTQ+ community.

Lance Bass is a proud dad to 19-month-old twins Alexander and Violet, but he tells POPSUGAR something that might shock his fans from his boy band days: they've never listened to an *NSYNC song. "It's so weird that I have not played them any *NSYNC songs because we play music all the time," he says. He and husband Michael Turchin pick a lot of different music for them, including ones in different languages because it helps babies' brain function. "They go to sleep to French lullabies. They watch Spanish 'Sesame Street' during the day," he says. The kids are also huge fans of Selena's "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom."

"But I have not played them any *NSYNC thing stuff yet, which is very odd," Bass admits. "They not knowingly say 'bye, bye, bye,' a lot when I'm leaving, but they have no idea that they're saying one of my songs."

"It's weird that they're even the age to enjoy it," but it's probably "time" for him to take the plunge with them, and their first song probably will be "Bye, Bye, Bye." "I think every kid loves that, loves the dance to it," he says. "I'll play them up-tempo stuff first and then we can rock them to sleep with 'God Must Have Spent a Little More Time on You.'"

Bass is partnering with Gerber Childrenswear for their "Big Little Moments" campaign to celebrate the expansion of their modern moments collection, exclusively at Walmart. The collection now includes swimwear, travel accessories, and nursery decor in addition to clothing and nursery bedding. Big Little Moments are the small moments with their kids that parents can look back on and realize were the big moments that mattered all along, and for Bass, one of those Big Little Moments is spending time reading with his kids, who've already gone through "hundreds and hundreds of books." "They really enjoy pop-up and peekaboo books, but you can't leave them alone with them because they just rip them out," he jokes. "I learned that the hard way."

It might be June, but for Jessica Biel, it's always "gonna be May"! The 41-year-old Cruel Summer executive producer wasn't shy about jamming out to her husband Justin Timberlake's hit *NSYNC song, "It's Gonna Be Me," at the recent after-party for her Freeform show's season 2 premiere.

ET got exclusive footage of Biel, who shares sons Silas, 8, and Phineas, 2, with Timberlake, rocking out to the 2000 track at the event.

"It's Gonna Be Me," has been turned into a viral meme, heralding in the month of May as Timberlake's pronunciation of "me" in the track sounds more like "may."

And though Timberlake didn't join his wife for the event, his former *NSYNC bandmate, Lance Bass, did walk the red carpet and discuss Timberlake and Biel's longtime romance. Bass himself made an appearance on Biel's hit late '90s/early aughts series, 7th Heaven, and is happy that the pair ended up together.

A heavenly reunion! Jessica Biel and Beverley Mitchell reunited on the red carpet on Wednesday, for a fun7th Heaven reunion.

Both stars -- who played sisters on the popular family drama series -- walked the carpet at the season 2 premiere of Cruel Summer at the Grace E. Simons Lodge in Los Angeles, and spoke with ET's Cassie DiLaura about their friendship.

"It's literally like a high school reunion for all of us," Mitchell marveled. "I mean, it's amazing."

Among those on the carpet was former *NSYNC star Lance Bass -- who also made his TV acting debut on an episode of 7th Heaven, making the reunion even more unique.

"I can't wait to see Lance tonight," Biel told ET of her former co-star and her husband Justin Timberlake's former bandmate. "It's a lot. There's a lot of friends from the '90s who are here tonight."

"It's the thing in the zeitgeist right now. People are loving the show again, and it's amazing," Bass told ET as he walked the carpet with husband Michael Turchin.

Looking back on his memories of his brief but impactful time on the show, Bass recalled, "It was my first acting job ever, so I didn't know what the hell I was doing. But they were so great to me, and they held my hand I remember thinking how great all the other actors were... It was one of the best lessons of my life."

Justin Timberlake knows his wife Jessica Biel is a catch.

In fact, he couldn't stop the feeling of thirsting over the actress when a fan posted to TikTok a scene from her 2001 movie, Summer Catch. In the clip, Jessica steps out of a pool wearing a pink bikini, with the camera catching an eyeful of her body as she rinses off her hair.

"Once a year I remember this clip of Jessica Biel exists," one TikToker wrote, paired with an audio that said, "even though I've never met her in-person, she's with me in very weird subliminal ways. I talk to her in my head."

Justin's response? "Same," he wrote in the comments on May 16.

And this isn't his first time dropping a five-star review for Summer Catch. Last August, Jessica posted the same clip in honor of the movie's 21st anniversary, joking that she "did my own stunts."

Kaley Cuoco's daughter Matilda is showing off her music tastes at just 8 weeks old!

The actress, 37, shared a cute photo of her baby girl wearing an *NSYNC T-shirt in an Instagram Story on Monday, with her happily grinning alongside the band's newest fan.

"This NSync tee is giving me life lol," the new mom excitedly captioned the post.

Cuoco also shared a sweet family snap of herself with her boyfriend Tom Pelphrey and their nearly 2-month-old daughter, as she called them both "the loves of my life."

Every phase and stage of parenthood has its highlights, but entrepreneur, former *NSYNC member, and twin dad Lance Bass is finding lots to love about raising toddlers with husband Michael Turchin. Violet Betty and Alexander James, who will be 2 in October, have recently started speaking, are "addicted to the pool" and "are huggers now," their proud dad tells Yahoo Life.

"They just reach out to you and just want to hug you and then put their head on your shoulder," explains Bass, 44. "It's just the best, warmest feeling ever. The first year, they wouldn't give me any love. They never hugged, they never wanted to snuggle, and I was so upset about it. Because they would do that with my mom. My mom would come over and boom, they'd snuggle with her. But now it's official - they've become loving kids, and I get hugs all day long."

He's also elated that the kids are constantly picking up new words now, in great part thanks to the popular children's show Ms. Rachel on YouTube.

"My daughter now knows how to say 'apple,'" says Bass. "And Ms. Rachel is really teaching them all kinds of things. I think we're up to 10 body parts now. They just learned 'neck' this week, they've learned 'face.' They now know 'belly button.' They're obsessed with their belly buttons now. I guess they never realized they had one until they learned the word for it. Anatomy is big for us right now!" They're also "obsessed with books," which gives Bass hope that they'll become "really good readers."

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are proving that the key to a successful relationship is a strong sense of humor.

Last week, Timberlake playfully responded to a social media user who mistakenly referred to his wife as his girlfriend. Now, Biel is also getting in on the fun.

On May 22, the 41-year-old shared a photo of herself and her hubby on Instagram and captioned the post, "My boyfriend." In the picture, the married couple poses for a silly selfie on a golf course as Timberlake sticks his tongue out for the camera.

Timberlake replied to his wife's post with the following cheeky comment: "I know this sounds crazy but, will you marry me?"

Biel's followers got a kick out of the fun banter and took to the comments to share their reactions for the couple, who have been married since 2012.

Lance Bass is enjoying every special moment with his twins.

The *NSYNC alum, 44, tells PEOPLE he's enjoying getting outdoors with kids Violet Betty and Alexander James, 18 months, and husband Michael Turchin, while discussing his favorite Big Little Moments for his partnership with Gerber Childrenswear, celebrating the expansion of their modern moments™ collection, exclusively at Walmart.

"We've been getting in a lot of core memories lately, that's for sure," he tells PEOPLE. "Now that the weather's great, we're spending a lot of time outside."

To his parents ' surprise, Alexander has been enjoying exploring playgrounds and slides.

"I thought he was too young for that but definitely not," Bass shares. "He immediately went to the big boy slide and went head-first down. I can't believe he was that brave, but he loved it. I have a fearless boy on my hands."

The family of four is heading into the summer with style, with the twins wearing the sweet modern designs the line has to offer.

"They're so great and so comfortable. I'm a very modern person, so I love that they make it very modern and make it easy for us, because they have clothes all the way up to size 5T," he shares. "So we're gonna be a Gerber Childrenswear family for a very long time."

The twins are loving the bathing suits, "because now that it's bathing suit season, they're really having a blast."

Lance Bass looked dapper at the Lisa Vanderpump charity gala Vanderpump Dogs at the Maybourne Hotel in Beverly Hills on Thursday evening.

The 44-year-old singer was with his husband Michael Turchin as they mingled with Lisa, Lala Kent, Paula Abdul and Kristin Chenoweth.

Bass also caught up with DailyMail.com inside the splashy affair.

The performer shared that he has recently struck up a friendship with 49-year-old British crooner Robbie Williams.

And they are now developing a 'show' together, shared Bass.

'I have not told anyone this yet, but we are working on a show together, we have been talking a lot about it,' Lance told Dailymail.com.

'I think it is going to be really good, we are excited about it.'

And Lance added that the idea came about organically.

'We have become friends recently and we just started talking, we shared some ideas and we were like, "Let's do a show together."'

Bass did not say what type of show it would be, but it would likely start out in London where Williams lives.

Following the announcement this month that Paramount Global has shut down MTV News, which was established in the late '80s, Pak and several of her former colleagues - Sway Calloway, Brian McFayden and Alison Stewart - told Yahoo Entertainment about some of their most memorable moments there. They recalled their time at the forefront of pop culture - "MTV was pop culture for a long time," Pak says - as both "important" and "surreal."

Like everyone else in this story, McFayden has stayed in touch with people from his time at the network.

"I'm doing a new show with Chris Kirkpatrick from *NSYNC," McFayden says of the "Class of 99" participant. "We're doing a podcast together, and that's about to launch here pretty soon."

Lance Bass and his husband, Michael Turchin, are learning for themselves that the "terrible twos" don't start when children turn 2. Their twins -- Violet and Alexander -- are already exhibiting "terror"-like behavior, albeit "cute terror."

ET's Brice Sander spoke with Bass and Turchin on Thursday night at the 5th annual Vanderpump Dog Foundation Gala at the Maybourne Hotel in Beverly Hills, and the couple opened up about the best part of being parents to twins, who in just a matter of months will turn 2.

"Apparently my mom says they already started," said Bass about the twins, whom the couple welcomed in October 2021 via surrogate. "So, yeah, especially our son. He's a terror. He's a terror."

"A cute terror," Turchin gently interjected. "But a terror."

While the couple may already find themselves on high alert for twins who are only 17 months old, there's moments when the pair's heart just absolutely melts with pure joy and love.

"Them hugging you," said Bass when asked about the best part of being dads to children at this age.

Over 420 performances into her show-stopping turn as Edna in the national tour for "Hairspray," Nina West's opening night in Los Angeles attracted a bevy of fellow "RuPaul's Drag Race" alum - and many others - to the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

Everyone from Lance Bass to "Russian Doll" breakout Charlie Barnett and "Queer Eye" handyman Bobby Berk were spotted in the packed-to-the-brim crowd, many of whom were heard singing and toe-tapping along to musical theater classics like "You Can't Stop the Beat" and "Good Morning Baltimore."

The trailer for the next installment in the My Big Fat Greek Wedding saga is here!

On Thursday, the trailer was released, which shows the Portokalos family in all their glory as they travel to a family reunion in Greece to honor Toula (Vardalos) father's final wish: for the entire family to visit his childhood village and reconnect with their roots.

John Corbett returns as Toula's incredibly non-Greek husband, Ian. There's no shortage of drama as Toula and Ian's daughter, Paris (Elena Kampouris), is on a plane with young Aristotle (Elias Kacavas), who she ghosted but also just so happens to be going to Greece.

Also returning is Andrea Martin as Aunt Voula, Louis Mandylor as Toula's brother Nick, and Joey Fatone as Cousin Angelo.

Drag Isn't Dangerous, the biggest fundraising effort to combat anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in the US to date, raised more than $500,000 (£396,000) during a one-night-only telethon.

The livestream event, which took place on 7 May, was co-hosted by comedian Justin Martindale, director and choreographer Adam Shankman, as well as Drag Race stars Alaska 5000 and Peppermint.

It featured a mix of live and pre-taped performances, as well as appearances from some of the world's most famous drag performers including Jinkx Monsoon, Trixie Mattel, Kelly Mantle, Kerri Colby and Laganja Estranja, among many others.

Allies such as Sarah Silverman, Melissa McCarthy and Charlie Theron were also in attendance, as well as a number of LGBTQ+ entertainers such as Margaret Cho, Drankie Grande and Lance Bass.

All net proceeds from the event will be divided among approved charities (GLAAD, GLSEN, Headcount, Black Queer Town Hall, The ACLU Drag Defense Fund, Trans Justice Funding Project and Victory Fund ) that support LGBTQ+ causes and drag performers in need - especially in states where they face discrimination and bans.

Who's making their picks on this week's episode of AXS TV's Vinyl Obsession? Glad you asked. This upcoming Sunday, May 7, Ajay Popoff of Lit and *NSYNC vocalist Chris Kirkpatrick bring us along during their respective shopping trips at Grimey's in Nashville as they each seek out their Top 5 LPs. Here's AP-exclusive sneak preview of Kirkpatrick's quest for his favorites.

If you've read my interview with Vinyl Obsession's executive producer and VP of programming Katie Daryl that posted here two weeks ago on AP, you know that it airs on Sunday nights at 8:30 p.m. EST on AXS TV, and that the half-hour show follows a pair of musicians and/or rock-adjacent celebs shopping for their five favorite albums at Grimey's in Nashville.

Perennial attendee Joey Fatone, formerly of *NSYNC, said he'll be leaving the Derby to go to his daughter's graduation.

It was a big day at the track at Churchill Downs, since Fridays are for the fillies.

Each year, female horses take over Churchill Downs the day before the Kentucky Derby kicks off.

It's also a day to honor breast cancer and ovarian cancer survivors, one of the most beautiful parts of the whole event.

"The Oaks" is the third most attended day of racing in the US. On Friday, 120,000 people were at the track.

Even some celebrities, like *NSYNC's Joey Fatone, and lawyer, designer, and television personality Star Jones, make The Oaks a priority.

"My mother is a survivor. Thank God, [she] did a little bit of chemo and stuff like that and she's great right now," Fatone said. "It's very near and dear to my heart, so, I think it's great they honor that, raise money, raise awareness, and it's a great day to do it."

On Friday, ahead of the 149th Kentucky Derby, an emotional moment brought many to tears -- 149 breast and ovarian cancer survivors walked the track as people honored their fight.

This walk is now a 15-year tradition that has raised more than $1 million for women's health advocacy.

And with the telethon just a few days away, top-tier talent is still being added to the lineup. Here's the latest stars you can expect to see turn up and turn out on Sunday:

Modern glam-rock god Adam Lambert, award-winning director and choreographer Adam Shankman, Bros funnyman Billy Eichner, comedian and Somebody Somewhere star Bridget Everett, SNL icon Cheri Oteri, actress and Cocaine Bear director Elizabeth Banks, the wickedly talented one-and-only Idina Menzel, How To Get Away With Murder hottie Jack Falahee, Tampa, FL mayor Jane Castor, Broadway mainstay Jesse Tyler Ferguson, former New Kids On The Block heartthrob Joey McIntyre, *NSYNC's legendary Lance Bass, Everybody's Talking About Jamie's Max Harwood, our future Ursula Melissa McCarthy, America's squirrel-friend Michelle Visage, country crooner Orville Peck, Modern Family star Sarah Hyland, and more.

Danielle Fishel will forever be known as Topanga, the character on ABC sitcom Boy Meets World over sevens seasons, from 1993 to 2000, but back then she was just a girl herself, starring on it from the ages of 12 to 19. And she craved the experiences that teenagers who weren't on a hit TV show were having - like going to prom.

"I had a very normal high school experience when I was there," she tells Yahoo Entertainment for our Are the Kids Alright? series on former child stars. "When I was there [attending high school] one week out of the month and then full time from March until June, I was just like any other student. I had normal friends. I went to football games. I went to the dances. I went to all the classes. I passed notes in the hall. All of those things. And yet, I was also working full-time on a television show for ABC. So having a famous boyfriend who went to my high school prom with me, to me just felt like bringing my worlds together."

Her boyfriend was, of course, not a regular student. It was Lance Bass, whose band *NSYNC was at the top of the charts. The two have remained close in the decades since, and they're working on a series about their relationship of a year or so, which Fishel describes as her "first true love relationship."

"It's such a relatable experience, where, when Lance broke up with me, I immediately internalized it and was like, 'What did I do wrong? It must be me. There's something wrong with me,' Fishel says. "And Lance was having the same conversation with himself. 'Why can I not make it work with Danielle? What's wrong with me? And of course at the end of the day, there was nothing wrong with either one of us. It was just a matter of self discovery and figuring out who we are. And the fact that it made it as close as we have been all this time, and now we are both married with children of our own, and are still as close as we are... it's such an inspiring friendship, and it is a love story. We call it a new rom-com."

Fishel has said before that she and Bass are working on a project about their time as a couple, and she confirms that's very much still in the works.

"We have two amazing writers, Lauren Lapkus and Mary Holland," Fishel says. "They are plugging away at something for us. There's all kinds of tumultuous things going on in the entertainment industry; There may be a writer's strike, we don't really know what's going on. But if that project doesn't get made this year, it's at the top of our lists for 2024."

Talk about star power! Patrica Barnstable-Brown has pulled together another breathtaking celebrity guest list for her annual bucket-list Derby Eve party held the night before the Kentucky Derby. Our advice? You'll want to pull on your shades before glancing over the whos-who of the world of sports, music, television, film and dignitaries coming to this party.

This year, the legendary Smokey Robinson will be coming to the party along with actor Justin Hartley ("This is Us"), Ian Bohen ("Yellowstone"), music superstars Boyz II Men, *NSYNC's Joey Fatone, Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi) and singer-songwriter Rachel Platten, who is performing the national anthem at the Kentucky Oaks earlier in the day on Friday.

Under enormous white tents erected in the backyard for the party, a music stage becomes the center of attention once all the celebrities and invited party guests have arrived. It's where "The Voice" winner and Kentucky native Jordan Smith, country legends Travis Tritt and Eddie Montgomery, another Kentucky native, plus Sambora, Boyz II Men, Fatone, and Robinson will perform some unexpected musical mashups.

For party guests like Fatone, the Derby Eve event and its charitable cause go hand-in-hand. In 2021, he was asked to appear on "Celebrity Wheel of Fortune" and the money he raised was donated to the Barnstable Brown Diabetes Center. For a number of years, Sambora has performed at the party playing a custom-made guitar which he auctions off at the end of the night, and donates the proceeds to the Barnstable Brown Center.

Get the bundt cake pan ready!

During a presentation at CinemaCon on Wednesday, Focus Features presented more details on the upcoming My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3. That included some brief footage explaining how the story deals with the absence of Toula's father Gus, who was played by the late actor Michael Constantine in the first two movies.

The film, which was shot on location in Greece, will focus on the family fulfilling the last wish of patriarch Gus Portokalos, who wanted them to visit his village in the Mediterranean country.

Constantine played Gus in the first two movies before he died in 2021, but the actor gave writer-star Nia Vardalos his support for a third film even before he passed. "He had told me he wouldn't be able to join us for the third film and his wish was that we go on," Vardalos had previously shared on Instagram. "I wrote the screenplay to reflect Michael's decision and will always treasure his last messages to me, hoping we were filming soon."

The film marks the third entry in the My Big Fat Greek Wedding saga after the 2002 original, written by and starring then-unknown Vardalos, became a sleeper hit. Vardalos, who had originally penned the story as a one-woman show, broke out as an actress and creator following the film's success, eventually launching a sequel, 2016's My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 will feature many fan favorites from the original films, including Corbett, Louis Mandylor, Elena Kampouris, Maria Vacratsis, Elias Kavacas, Gia Carides, Joey Fatone, and Melina Kotselou.

To paraphrase an old song that Justin Timberlake apparently never has recorded: "Though April showers may come your way/ They bring the memes that bloom near May ..."

So get ready, y'all, for the late-April return of the "It's Gonna Be May" memes, a pre-May Day excuse to pay homage to Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez and Timberlake, collectively known as NSYNC (written as *NSYNC on the band's Twitter account and merchandise website).

The memes trace their origins to the 2000 hit single "It's Gonna Be Me" from *NSYNC's second album, "No Strings Attached," which was made especially popular by its accompanying video, which depicts the boy banders as literal living dolls flirting with various crop-topped and bikini-bottomed quasi-Barbies on the shelves of a toy store.

Timberlake takes the lead vocals on the bouncy pop ditty. "Baby, when you finally get to love somebody, guess what - it's gonna be meee," he sings, but he pronounces the final word with a funkadelicized vibrato that makes "me" sound sort of like "May."

As a result, Tumblr users, bloggers, YouTubers, content generators and other social media mischief-makers began poking fun at Timberlake. For example, BuzzFeed in 2012 posted an April calendar page with a picture of Timberlake at the bottom, with the caption "IT'S GONNA BE MAY." To understand the joke, you had to not only know the song but be so familiar with it that you were aware of the eccentric pronunciation.

The stars, they're just like us... If by just like us you mean they totally got hosed in the pay department on their first jobs. Case in point: Lance Bass. During a chat on The Jess Cagle Show on Wednesday (April 26), Bass revealed that despite what you might think, he's made a ton more money since *NSYNC's 2002 permanent hiatus than he did while the band was topping the charts in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

"Well, the worst thing is people thinking that we were rich, because we were not," Bass told Cagle about the common misconception that he, Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick were rolling in dough after a historic run that included such enduring hits as "Girlfriend," "It's Gonna Be Me," "Tearin' Up My Heart," "Pop" and "Gone" and a 2000 album, No Strings Attached, that sold a remarkable 2.42 million physical copies in its first week.

"We were famous, but we were not rich," said Bass, 43, who has gone on to star in a string of TV and film projects and Broadway shows (On The Line, Robot Chicken, Dancing With the Stars, Hairspray, Unicorn Hunters) and dabble in radio and movie production. "I made way more money after *NSYNC than I did during *NSYNC."

Universal's CinemaCon presentation Wednesday night included an extended look at DreamWorks Animation's "Trolls Band Together," due in theaters Nov. 17.

The plot, concerning Branch's estranged brother coming into Branch and Poppy's lives, isn't that different from "Despicable Me 3." That said, nobody goes to a "Trolls" movie for the plot. It's all about the psychedelic musical mind melt that's also super kid-friendly.

Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake took to the stage to reveal a never-before-seen musical clip from the movie. The footage starts the same as the theatrical trailer, with Poppy and Branch going to a wedding and wondering if they too should tie the knot. We meet Branch's lost-lost and estranged brother and then the trio are whisked away to rescue the other captive brothers. That leads to the usual colorful adventures, including a brief detour into 2-D animation.

The stars were out in Las Vegas last weekend.

Holing out, that is.

For the second playing of the 8AM Golf Invitational, a celebrity-studded field - led by 8AM partner Justin Timberlake - descended on the Wynn Las Vegas. Athletes, actors and comedians comprised the 28-player field, which was split into Team Wynn and Team Encore, with the players competing in four nine-hole scramble matches. The fun-filled event was sponsored by Cabot, CDW/NetApp, Dewar's and Greyson Clothiers.

Fallon may have kept everyone entertained, but that didn't distract him from getting dialed in. He and Timberlake walked away with the hardware and bragging rights.

There was another important winner, too: $451,000 was raised for charity.

On a new episode of Frosted Tips with Lance Bass, Lance Bass and his lovely co-host and husband Michael Turchin get "Larger Than Life" with Backstreet Boys' Howie Dorough. Wait until you hear about the drama that unfolded after Howie's audition for BSB and how fate stepped in to save him. Plus, details on a running beef with AJ, the chances of a Backstreet Boys 2.0 and the musical chairs of boy band members before forming BSB that actually helped lead to the creation of *NSYNC.

When proposed with a fan question asking if BSB would consider doing another Vegas residency, Howie revealed, "I think everything we'd consider, I think at this point, y'know we used to joke, we'll do a Bar Mitzvah, just call our agents, drop by a birthday party... I think now at this point... I think anything's on the table."

"We even talked about with you guys, y'know maybe something down the line together." Ummm... say what?

"Whatever makes sense, I think now is the timing where the fans are especially even more so open and embracing. Like how we talked about in the earlier years, I think we would have probably caused some major fan craziness going on if they saw us somehow trying to work together. But I think now more than ever the fans are just like 'we just want to see them, we've gone past the teen years of having to pick one or the other.'"

What do Hollywood, the Premier League, the PGA Tour and horse riding have in common?

Commercial real estate, apparently.

Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods are among the celebrities partnering on a mixed-use mega-complex in Wellington, a South Florida village known for its central role in equestrian culture.

Horse mogul Mark Bellissimo, owner of Wellington Lifestyle Partners (WLP) and the biggest landowner in the town, has partnered with Nexus Luxury Collection, a hospitality group founded by a collaboration among Timberlake, Woods, fellow golf legend Ernie Els and Joe Lewis, the billionaire British owner of Tavistock Group. (The deal must have been good enough to lure Timberlake, allegedly a Manchester United fan, into working with Lewis, the majority owner of rival Tottenham Hotspur. Or maybe it's just that Timberlake is also an avid golfer.)

Just in case there weren't enough partners in the project, Nexus and WLP are being joined by billionaire eBay founder Jeff Skoll as investor, and former show jumper Paige Bellissimo, the founder of Buildz and daughter of Bellissimo, who is managing the development process.

The star-studded partnership plans an exclusive community on 600 acres assembled over the years by the elder Bellissimo, which will combine resort living with a social club, as well as a focus on wellness, a love of sports, equestrian facilities, and a golf course.

Hello, friends and happy Saturday from the Wynn Las Vegas! I write to you all as I await a chicken Caesar salad wrap and french fries in the nicest hotel I've ever stepped foot in.

I'm here for the 8AM Invitational, and the field is full of big-time celebrities. This may come as a surprise to you all, but I am actually not teeing it up in the event this weekend. Rather, players such as Justin Timberlake, Jimmy Fallon, Michelle Wie, JJ Watt, Michael Phelps, Gossip Girl's very own Nate Archibald - er, I mean, Chase Crawford and Kathryn Newton make up the field. I served as a fly on the wall yesterday while I gathered social content for 8AM and GOLF, and now I'm here to tell you all what I observed!

The golf portion of the day ended with the Dewar's 19th hole shootout, where players took on a 65-yard shot over water for an opportunity to donate to a charity of their choice. Before the shootout got underway, Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake presented Travis Kelce with a plaque and a gold Scotty Cameron putter after an incident last year resulted in Kelce's putter being thrown into the lake. It was hilarious, and Kelce was psyched about the putter.

The eighth annual Huntsville Comic and Pop Culture Expo kicked off Friday bringing convention goers and some celebrity guests to the Rocket City.

The expo started on Friday and will run until Sunday at the Von Braun Center. the event brings together cosplay contests, gaming rooms a charity auction and several celebrity guests such as William Shatner and Brent Spiner, both of Star Trek fame.

News 19's Danielle Dozier hit the expo Friday afternoon to look around a catch up with some of those celebrity guests.

Danielle also caught up with *NSYNC's Joey Fatone.

On a new episode of Frosted Tips with Lance Bass, Lance Bass and his lovely co-host and husband Michael Turchin go "On The Way Down" memory lane with Ryan Cabrera. The trio discuss everything from Ryan's days in Rubix Groove to going solo. Plus his music writing process, an interesting choice for a butt tattoo, and why his wedding almost didn't happen because of Chris Kirkpatrick.

Later on in the pod, Ryan talked about his wedding, from the crazy, amazing, eclectic guest list that included everyone from Sarah Michelle Geller to Debby Gibson, to the bold dress code. And most unexpected of all, how and why his wedding, well marriage, almost didn't happen because of Lance's former band member Chris Kirkpatrick.

Prefacing the story that his wife Alexis had started telling by how they first met at one of Ryan's shows with Chris and Joey Fatone in Orlando, Ryan noted he hadn't seen Chris in "about six months," and the night before the show Chris wanted to go to Jelly Rolls, a dueling piano spot, "to get turnt up" the night before the show.

Knowing the next night would be the first time he met Alexis, Ryan told himself, "Ryan, this girl doesn't know you, you don't know her, don't get drunk with Chris and try to FaceTime her." Obviously he did... "I woke up the next morning" he recalled, "two FaceTimes to Lex, both of them answered, and I don't remember either."

Halle Berry, Justin Timberlake, and a number of stars have shared calls for justice for Ralph Yarl on social media, after the 16-year-old was shot in Kansas City on Thursday, April 13. Ralph was shot in the head while trying to pick up his younger twin brothers from a friend's home, but he rang the wrong doorbell, and the man who answered the door allegedly shot him, according to a GoFundMe started by Ralph's aunt Faith Spoonmore.

Halle and Justin are just two of many celebrities and elected officials who are calling for justice for Ralph as he continues to recover from his injuries.

Justin shared photos of Ralph on both his Instagram and Twitter, and expressed his outrage at knowing the alleged shooter was released. The "Mirror" singer also called for fans to speak out and show support for the teenager. "Right now, the man is free and the innocent teenager is fighting for his life in the hospital. This can't be it," he wrote. "Please share this story in support of Ralph Yarl and his family - and if you can, contact Prosecutor Zachary Thompson and demand an immediate arrest and bring the appropriate charges."

On Sunday, April 2, Great Neck North High School student Jacob Podwall hosted a benefit concert, Harmony for Humanity, at Temple Beth-El of Great Neck. Jacob is a skilled pianist who performed popular songs from artists like Coldplay, Green Day and Elvis Presley with vocal stylings of Temple Beth-El Cantor Adam Davis. The money Jacob helped raise in ticket sales and donations supports Northwell Health's Turkey-Syria Relief Fund.

In early February, three rough earthquakes shook areas in Turkey and Syria, followed by some intense aftershocks. The quakes were followed by 3,858 aftershocks since Feb. 6, 38 of them over magnitude 5. A second 6.4 quake shook the region on Feb. 20, followed by 90 aftershocks, the largest of which was recorded at 5.8. On Feb. 27, a third quake with a 5.2 magnitude struck southern Turkiye, hitting parts of the same area shook by the Feb. 6 quake.

The earthquake epicenters are located in the east and south areas of Turkey, right above the Turkey-Syria border, leading to immense damage and deaths in both Turkey and Syria. Three hundred forty-five thousand apartments and over 50,000 buildings have been destroyed. Close to two million people were displaced after the earthquakes and in need of food, water, shelter and medical attention.

Jacob had seen images and videos of the destruction and heard reports of the many injured people suffering in affected areas on the news. Jacob's mother, Barbara Podwall saw how Jacob reacted to the news and offered him a way to help out.

As a physician with Northwell Health, Barbara heard about its Turkey-Syria Relief Fund. All donations to the fund provide vital medical assistance to ease the suffering of the people in affected areas. According to Northwell Health's Center for Global Health relief funds website, "Donations will be directed to international relief partners, including Doctors Without Borders, also known as Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), which has already deployed teams to provide medical assistance and support to the injured and mourning."

The Harmony for Humanity benefit concert raised $5,500 for Northwell Health's Relief Fund, with help from *NSYNC pop star JC Chasez. According to a press release from Northwell Health, "Podwall's fundraising efforts got the attention and a financial boost from JC Chasez. The frontman kick-started Podwall's cause with a $1,000 donation."

Chris Kirkpatrick of popular boyband group *NSYNC will be in Roanoke summer of 2023!

Justin Timberlake is taking time to give back - and is honoring a special someone in the process. On Wednesday (April 12), the former *NSYNC member announced the Nicole Hurst Scholarship, which will allow two prospective music students to study at the 1500 Sound Academy in Inglewood, Calif., and Taipei, Taiwan. The scholarship is named after Timberlake's backup singer, Nicole Hurst, who passed away in 2021 of breast cancer.

"In honor of one of our Tennessee Kids, a woman who LIVED and LOVED music, and one of the greatest voices and smiles the world has ever heard and seen - we're so excited to announce the NICOLE HURST SCHOLARSHIP, which will be supporting young creatives with 2 scholarships... One to attend @1500SoundAcademy in Inglewood, CA and one to attend @1500SoundAcademyTaipei in Taiwan!!" the "Can't Stop the Feeling" singer captioned an April 12 Instagram video of him discussing the opportunity. "Nicole's legacy and light lives on. Link in my bio to apply by April 26, 2023!!! @jamesfauntleroyii @rance1500 @1500soundacademy."

Timberlake appeared in the video alongside R&B/pop singer-songwriter James Fauntleroy and musician and producer Larrance "Rance" Dopson, both of whom have won Grammy awards for their work. Fauntleroy and Dopson lead the 1500 Sound Academy with Twila True, co-founder of True Family Enterprises.

Prospective students hoping to win the scholarship can submit their applications from now until April 26. Applicants can apply for the L.A. scholarship here and for the Taipei scholarship here. The two winners will be announced on May 13.

Watch Timberlake talk about the Nicole Hurst scholarship in the video below.

Derek Jeter's Turn 2 Foundation announced it will host the highly-anticipated Derek Jeter Invitational (DJI) in partnership with Baha Mar - The Bahamas' luxury resort destination - May 11-14.

Dozens of celebrities and athletes will join the Baseball Hall of Famer for three days of competitive golf at Baha Mar's Jack Nicklaus signature design Royal Blue Golf Course, as well as special events held throughout the resort, benefitting Jeter's Turn 2 Foundation and its programmes serving youth.

Some of the biggest stars in sports and entertainment will attend this year's golf tournament, including: Tiki Barber, Derrick Brooks, Nate Burleson, Kevin Connolly, Victor Cruz, Kevin Dillon, D-Nice, Joey Fatone, Jerry Ferrara, Cliff Floyd, Wayne Gretzky, Ken Griffey Jr., Rob Gronkowski, Natalie Gulbis, Reggie Jackson, Andruw Jones, Angie Martinez, Tino Martinez, Booger McFarland, Fred McGriff, Charles Oakley, Chandler Parsons, Jorge Posada, Busta Rhymes, Rob Riggle, CC Sabathia, Ramon Sessions, J.R. Smith, Paige Spiranac, John Starks, Michael Strahan, Tanyon Sturtze, Nick Swisher, Heidi Watney and Deron Williams.

It is no understatement to say that Timbaland is one of the most influential and successful songwriter-producers of the last three decades: Justin Timberlake, Missy Elliott, Jay-Z, Rihanna, Madonna, Drake, Bjork and even Chris Cornell are just the best-known of the literally hundreds of artists the man born Timothy Zachery Mosely has worked with since the Virginia-born, Miami-based hitmaker first popped onto the scene with records by Aaliyah and Ginuwine in the mid-1990s.

His monumentally prolific musical output slowed down to normal speed for a few years while he focused on a multitude of other projects - most prominently "Verzuz," the pandemic-spawned rap/R&B battle series he launched with fellow hitmaker Swizz Beatz, which he says has a top-secret announcement coming that will "take us to a whole other level"; and Beatclub, a curated platform for producers and songwriters to sell beats, demos and other song elements to artists, brands and music supervisors.

He will receive the Pioneer Award for his work creating Beatclub and producing music with top artists at Variety's second annual Miami Entertainment Town event taking place in the city Thursday (April 13).

Beatclub is a two-way street, as it provides an environment for Timbaland to work with young creators - and he's collaborating with tons of them on forthcoming projects, along with new albums from Timberlake and Elliott. In a sprawling 45-minute chat, Tim expounded at length upon all of the above and much more - and check back tomorrow, when we'll have more from Tim on the Timberlake album.

Hollywood's elite, mobsters, drag queens, and pornographers - all in a day at Palm Spring's Ingleside Inn, circa 1975. That infamous inn and its larger-than-life owner are now the subjects of a scripted podcast from Audio Up and SiriusXM. The first two episodes will be available starting April 18th, with additional episodes dropping weekly.

Bedtime Stories of the Ingleside Inn is adapted from the memoir of the Ingleside's owner, Melvyn Haber and tells his struggle to manage his hotel while catering to his clientele's vices. The podcast features an all-star cast, including Jason Alexander, Lance Bass, Richard Kind, Michael McKean, and others.

"I'm ecstatic to finally be bringing this story to life," said Lance Bass, a real-life friend of the legendary Melvyn Haber. "Mel and I tried to produce it for years- wanting to find the right partners. Michael Sugar and Jared Gutstadt shared my enthusiasm and we created something I know Mel would love. It's an honor to tell the story of one of the best storytellers I've ever met."

Lisa Vanderpump got to spend some quality time with her Godchildren on Easter Sunday. The former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star shared a video of herself along with Alexander and Violet, who are the 1-year-old twins of Lance Bass and his husband, Michael Turchin.

"Not forgetting my beautiful godchildren!" Vanderpump captioned an Instagram video of her in her backyard holding hands with the toddlers as they walked in the backyard. Vanderpump took the little ones to look at her ponies.

In a post just a bit earlier, Vanderpump revealed that she was spending Easter with family and "lots of babies." Joining the party was Alexander and Violet's "best friend," Teddy, who is the son of Vanderpump's daughter, Pandora Vanderpump Sabo, and her husband, Jason Sabo.

Vanderpump seemed to be in her glory as she walked around the yard with Alexander and Violet, both of whom were very curious about some Easter eggs that appeared to be hidden for a hunt later on in the day.

Fans took to the comments section of the post to react. Within the comments was one from Bass who called Vanderpump "the bestest hostess" and said that his kids were "lucky to have" her.

MTV knows that blood is thicker than water, which is why the company is diving into the lives and careers of iconic artists through the eyes of their children in the upcoming docuseries Family Legacy.

In the new 30-second trailer, premiering exclusively on Billboard below, Notorious B.I.G.'s son C.J. Wallace is heard calling his late dad "the greatest rapper of all time," before Melissa Etheridge's daughter Bailey Jean Cypher calls herself the "OG lesbian baby."

The intimate, five-episode docuseries will capture musicians through the lens of their kids, with exclusive footage and brand-new interviews with the children of beloved music stars, including Van Halen's Sammy Hagar, Backstreet Boys' Brian Littrell, *NSYNC's Joey Fatone, Boyz II Men's Nathan Morris, TLC's Chilli, Sean "Diddy" Combs, Brandy, Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington and more. The series will be narrated by actor and musician Quincy Brown, the son of Al B. Sure, Diddy and the late Kim Porter.

Family Legacy is set to premiere on Tuesday, April 25, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. and Canada, before arriving internationally on April 26 in the U.K., Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, LATAM and Brazil, and April 29 in Australia.

Most people know Lance Bass for his time with 90s boyband *NSYNC, with their hits such as "Bye, Bye, Bye" and "It's Gonna Be Me" or more recently as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars (the US version of Strictly Come Dancing).

But what not many people know is that he is also a space fanatic and has completed cosmonaut training.

He is now narrating a new podcast, The Last Soviet, about cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev who was on board space station Mir when the Soviet Union fell.

We spoke with Lance Bass about how he almost became a cosmonaut and what it was like training in Russia.

BETHESDA, MD - Members of iconic boy bands that rose to fame more than 20 years ago showed up Saturday at Westfield Montgomery Mall to perform their hits, with an ornate cherry blossom installation serving as the backdrop.

The Y2K Pink Party concert was part of the mall's BlossomFest, a program for cherry blossom season that will run through April. Westfield Montgomery is an official partner of the National Cherry Blossom Festival.

*NSYNC's Chris Kirkpatrick, 98 Degrees' Jeff Timmons, LFO and O-Town took the stage during the concert, which took place on the lower level of the Nordstrom wing at the mall.

Kirkpatrick, who originally planned on only being a host, surprised the crowd by taking the stage to perform three songs, including *NSYNC's "Bye, Bye, Bye."

The Celebrity Fight Night charity event was hosted on April 1 at the JW Marriott Phoenix Desert Ridge Resort & Spa. It raised money to go toward clinical trials for cancer research. Nile Rodgers and singer Thelma Houston are all part of the excitement. FOX 10 also caught up with Joey Fatone from *NSYNC.

There are some big names joining the Baby Shark family.

Nickelodeon, Paramount+ and The Pinkfong Company have announced the newest additions to the voice cast for the upcoming animated kids' movie, Baby Shark's Big Movie!

Ashley Tisdale, Aparna Nancherla, Ego Nwodim, Chloe Fineman, ENHYPEN, and Lance Bass will all lend their voices to the first-ever feature-length original animated movie based on the preschool hit.

The movie will follow Baby Shark and his family as they move to Chomp City, the big city of sharks. Not only will Baby Shark be forced to adjust to life without his best friend William nearby, but he'll also encounter an evil pop starfish who plans to steal his gift of song in order to dominate all underwater music. Baby Shark has to embark on a mission to break her spell to restore harmony to the seas.

ENHYPEN will bring the tunes as an underwater powerhouse K-pop band of belugas, while former boybander Bass will play himself, as a TV announcer.

Your favorite boy bands are gathering in Bethesda, Maryland, to celebrate the National Cherry Blossom Festival.

Members of *NSYNC, LFO, O-Town and 98 Degrees will visit Westfield Montgomery for the "Y2K Pink Party" Saturday from 1 to 3 p.m. Tickets are still available online, and visitors are encouraged to wear their best cherry blossom pink attire to the free concert.

Interfaith Works will collect new or lightly used spring and summer gear for families in need, while American Eagle will collect old jeans for insulating homes and L'Occitane will collect beauty product bottles for recycling.

"It's just always a lot of fun, and it's great to get out and see the fans," Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC told WTOP. "It's funny how it's shifted from back in the day the kids dragging their parents to our shows and now the parents dragging their kids to our shows, but that's the evolution of getting old I guess. ... It's just very nostalgic."

Born in Pennsylvania in 1971, Kirkpatrick lived with his mother and attended high school in Ohio before moving to Orlando to live with his father during college. While in Florida, he met musician Charlie Edwards, who had quit an early iteration of The Backstreet Boys and who introduced him to record producer Lou Pearlman.

"Lou was looking for a band," Kirkpatrick said. "I was like, 'Pick me, I do these quartets all the time.' I brought him a couple of quartets that he didn't like, then finally found the right group of guys that he liked and got signed."

Poppy and Branch finally make it official in the new trailer for the upcoming third episode in the Trolls trilogy, Trolls Band Together. The follow-up to 2020's Trolls World Tour is slated to drop this November and it will, of course feature Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Justin Timberlake), who finally earn their couple name (#broppy) after years of flirting.

The two-minute trailer that dropped on Tuesday (March 28) features Branch and Poppy prepping for the royal marriage between Bridget and Gristle to the tune of JT singing Sister Sledge's 1978 hit single "We Are Family." Things are going swimmingly until John Dory (Eric Andre), Branch's long-lost brother parachutes in and interrupts the proceedings, leading to her discovery that Branch was once part of her favorite boy band: BroZone.

Today, the ongoing Pop 2000 Tour (P2K) hosted by Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC has announced several 2023 North American tour dates featuring performances by platinum-selling Pop2K stars O-Town, BBMAK, Ryan Cabrera, and LFO. The tour will hit 22 cities, kicking off in Bethesda, MD, on April 1 at the Westfield Montgomery.

The P2K tour will also bring some of the era's biggest hits to cities such as Nashville, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Atlantic City.

Ryan Cabrera said, "The Pop 2000 tour is such a fun, eclectic mix of crazy energy, sing-along anthems and has something for everyone!"

Brad Fischetti of LFO, reflecting on his late bandmates and the era's importance, said, "For me personally, the Pop 2000 shows give me a chance to honor my fallen bandmates, Rich Cronin and Devin Lima. And perhaps the icing on the cake is sharing a stage with my brothers - including O-Town, Ryan Cabrera, and Chris Kirkpatrick. I love these guys, and we love the fans! I can't wait to bring the Pop 2000 Tour to as many cities as possible this summer!"

O-Town's Jacob Underwood said: "The Pop 2000 Tour has had one great year after another with a slew of awesome songs and artists from the era, and this year has a very special addition to the lineup with BBMAK. On top of that, we absolutely love performing *NSYNC songs with Kirkpatrick and have added more this year than any year so far, so I know the fans will really enjoy what's coming."

The P2K Tour is represented by Universal Attractions Agency (UAA). Additional tour dates are to be announced shortly.

Lauren Daigle postponed a planned concert to preview songs from her upcoming third studio album on Monday night (March 27) in order to host a prayer vigil for the victims of a mass shooting at Nashville's The Covenant School.

Daigle was slated to preview her upcoming self-titled album (May 12) at the Marathon Music Works on Monday night; the show is now scheduled for April 5. Instead, the venue hosted a free-to-all community-wide prayer vigil to honor the three nine-year-old children and three school staff members who were killed during Monday's mass shooting in which the shooter - armed with two semi-automatic long guns, a pistol and tactical gear - was killed by police 14 minutes after the rampage began at the private Christian school in Nashville.

A number of Nashville musicians spoke out in grief and anger after the nation's 132nd mass shooting so far this year.

In a stark post last Monday night, Justin Timberlake tweeted out a list of the victims, which included three fourth grade children and three adults in their 60s.

Learning through experience. Chris Kirkpatrick candidly discussed how his journey as a father has been shaped by his own childhood.

"Being a dad - that's the challenge. Knowing how I grew up - I grew up very poor with nothing and my kid doesn't have to work for anything," the singer, 51, who shares 5-year-old son Nash with wife Karly Skladany, exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month at 90s Con in Hartford, Connecticut. "And every time we go out, I'm always like, 'Yeah, let me get you this!'"

Kirkpatrick continued: "He comes home [and] he has like eight toy rooms in our house. So, I think [being a father] is trying to put the values in him that I had. But [at the same time], I still let him know, 'All of the stuff you are getting is because we love you.' [It is] not because if he acts like he deserves it it stops."

The Pennsylvania native, who is best known for being the founding member of 90s hit boyband *NSYNC, went on to share his child's reaction to his career.

Chris Kirkpatrick was saying "Bye Bye Bye" a lot while he was in *NSYNC.

The former boy band member exclusively told Page Six at a recent That's4Entertainment '90s Con that he was "probably" the biggest partier of the quintet, adding that both he and his bandmate Joey Fatone shared the mantle for pulling practical jokes.

"If it's playing pranks and that stuff, that's me," the 51-year-old told us. "If it's partying, it was probably me. If it's, you know, anything else, it was probably Joey."

*NSYNC was for a brief time THE band of the '90s, inspiring a rabid female fan basis.

Formed in 1995 by Kirkpatrick, *NSYNC was made up of Fatone, 46, Justin Timberlake, 42, JC Chasez, 46, and Lance Bass, 43. Hit singles like "It's Gonna Be Me," "I Want You Back" and "This I Promise You" followed along with memorable performances at the Super Bowl, World Series and the Olympic Games.

The group eventually disbanded in 2002, but not before completing five nationwide tours and selling over 70 million records, cementing their spot as one of the most popular boy bands in music history.

*NSYNC's No Strings Attached recently celebrated its 23rd birthday, and Lance Bass revealed what tracks are his favorites. Shockingly, the space-loving singer didn't even place "Space Cowboy (Yippie-Yi-Yay)" in the top five.

Taking to TikTok, Lance told fans in the caption, "I made my choices, sorry not sorry!"

The video sees him playing a clip of each of the album's 12 songs and dancing along before revealing where they ranked on his list.

Lance's favorite song was "It Makes Me Ill," which was never released as a single. The same goes for his second-place pick, which was "I Thought She Knew."

Rounding out the top five were "Bye Bye Bye," "This I Promise You" and "It's Gonna Be Me," which were all released as singles.

As for the bottom portion of Lance's list, it starts with "Just Got Paid" in sixth place. In descending in order, he ranks "Digital Get Down," "That's When I'll Stop Loving You," "Space Cowboy" and "I'll be Good For You" in slots seven through 10.

As for his least favorite songs on the album, he revealed he dislikes the album's title track and "Bringin' Da Noise" the most, respectively placing them in 11th and 12th place.

Fans pushed back against Lance's list and demanded a redo, but the singer wouldn't budge and responded to one disappointed critic, "I said what I said."

In Orlando, Florida on March 10, Steel Panther were once again joined by *NSYNC member Joey Fatone, who performed a raunchy, improvised sing-off with Michael Starr for a fan seated onstage. Fatone also remained onstage and performed four full songs with the group.

As is tradition at Steel Panther shows, they pluck a fan from the crowd and sing a filthy acoustic song, which often results in some red-faced laughs by the invited guest. Since someone has to maintain some standard of decency, we won't reprint those lyrics outright, but you can get an earful in the fan-shot video [here] and watch the hilarity unfold.

Fatone has been a recurring live guest over the years and, in 2012, he even sang Steel Panther's cover of "I Want It That Way," originally by *NSYNC's former boy band rival Backstreet Boys.

It's been 25 years since Joey Fatone, Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Lance Bass and Chris Kirkpatrick were catapulted into pop stardom with the release of *NSYNC, their self-titled U.S. debut album as the celebrated five-part harmonizers.

And while the guys reflected on the album itself - which arrived a year after their Germany debut of the same name - in the March 27 issue of PEOPLE, not all of their memories made the cut in print.

So to further toast their March 1998 debut, and overall legacy as pop juggernauts, PEOPLE has compiled a few standout moments from interviews with Bass, Kirkpatrick, Chasez and Fatone for some added... pop.

*NSYNC's Joey Fatone says where he is in life right now is the product of hard work - not luck.

Catching up with ABC Audio at 90s Con in Hartford, Connecticut, Fatone noted, "People just think things happen overnight, but people also go, 'Oh, you got lucky.' I might have gotten lucky with *NSYNC in the sense of the timing of it... but then it's how I moved my career through that. Luck didn't have to do with that."

After *NSYNC went on an indefinite "hiatus" in 2002, Joey joined several Broadway productions such as Little Shop of Horrors, hosted multiple shows and even competed on a few, like Dancing with the Stars.

"I've always loved entertainment... the hunger is the entertainment value of it and learning different things or ways about entertainment," he said about the fire that drives him to continue seeking out new opportunities. He says he wants to learn everything he can about the entertainment industry.

So, what's next? Joey hinted he's been dabbling with working behind the camera, like producing. The singer previously dipped his toes in with the 2020 short Fetal Fury: Escape the Womb. He also hinted of potential documentary work on the horizon.

"It's just fun. I'm not like, 'Ooh, I'm a guru. I need to do this because I'm amazing.' No, I'm testing out to see ... maybe there might be a different avenue that I may go to and do something different," said Joey.

Part of the hustle also includes doing multiple conventions, which is something Joey loves to do. "I'm a people person, so I love talking to people and it's fun to do these things," he said.

Who says throwbacks are reserved for Thursdays? The Pop 2000 Tour delivers the TRL moments that will bring you right back to the early 2000s.

The Pop 2000 tour will making its way across the U.S with a local stop close to the Ohio Valley.

The host of the tour will be Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC.

The tour will make a stop at Jergel's Rhythm Grille in Warrendale, PA on Friday July 28 at 8:00PM.

Expected to perform on this leg of the tour will be: O-Town, BBMAK, Ryan Cabrera, and LFO.

Twenty-three years ago today - March 21, 2000 - *NSYNC released their third album, No Strings Attached, which sold 2.4 million copies in its first week. That record stood for 15 years, until Adele broke it in 2015 with 25. The group released one more album, 2001's Celebrity, before going on an indefinite "hiatus" in 2002. But because the group never officially broke up, they left fans wanting more - and *NSYNC's Lance Bass wants to give it to them.

Lance, Justin, JC, Joey and Chris reunited for one performance, at the 2013 MTV VMAs; and Lance, Joey, JC and Chris performed with Ariana Grande at Coachella in 2019. But Lance tells ABC Audio fans simply feel they've got unfinished business.

"I hear it all the time. The fans are just saying, 'Just give us one more song. One more tour, one more show. Just a goodbye,'" he says. "And I agree, because none of us knew ... the guys, no one knew, that that would be the last show, the last tour. So I think we owe it to the fans and to ourselves to just have some kind of goodbye message."

However, the father of two realizes giving fans another song, another tour or another show is a slippery slope. Fans will just keep asking for more and he's not sure they could provide it, inevitably leading to another letdown.

"It's true. It's true," Lance admits. "But I think the majority would just appreciate we give them something, but y'know, now with [my] twins, it'd be very hard to get on the road. So I don't know how that would work."

In most boy bands, there's one of everything: The funny one, the wild one, the quiet one, the sporty one. *NSYNC was no different in 1998.

After a triumphant introduction in Germany in 1996, the five-piece Florida-made boy band wasn't necessarily poised to follow up their success with the same album back home. The Backstreet Boys already had the U.S. market on lock, which meant the characteristics placed on the *NSYNC guys - Lance Bass, JC Chasez, Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone - gave fans in the U.S. a way to connect with *NSYNC outside of the hits that they carried over from Europe.

"We had five individuals that each took characteristics of the next guy, which took your same characteristics and then took characteristics from the next guy," Kirkpatrick, 51, shares. "And then by the way, Lance sings really low. Joey sings pretty low. JC sings mid. Justin sings pretty high. Chris sings really high. To have that arc vocally, and the looks... We really complemented each other so well in every aspect of what *NSYNC was, from personalities to music to just hobbies to fashion senses, all that stuff."

MAKING AN ENTRANCE: Justin Timberlake makes his campaign debut for Louis Vuitton in a new series of ads for the French luxury brand's collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama.

Following a first round of images lensed by Steven Meisel, which broke in late December, Vuitton is rolling out new portraits by the photographer to coincide with the second drop of the "Creating Infinity" collection.

In addition to Timberlake, the ads feature Cate Blanchett, tennis star Naomi Osaka, South Korean model and actress Hoyeon Jung, French actress Léa Seydoux and Chinese actress Zhou Dongyu.

JC Chasez isn't exactly bringin' da noise in the *NSYNC group chat.

Chris Kirkpatrick exclusively revealed to E! News that the members of the iconic boy band do in fact have a group text, and that JC is the least active in it. Why that is?

"Because he's just an introvert," Chris noted at That's 4 Entertainment 90s Con 2023, which kicked off March 17 and wrapped March 19. "He usually just responds."

As for what goes down inside their text chain, Chris shared that the content isn't too serious.

"We all just randomly send stupid texts to each other," he said. "We were at a LEGO store. I was there with my kid and they had these Spice Girls LEGO set or something. I took a picture and I'm like, 'Why don't we have this, guys?' So it's just stupid stuff like that, or if we hear funny stories or funny jokes about the band, we send it to each other."

Lance Bass guest stars as himself on ABC's The Rookie season five episode 18, "Double Trouble." After taking a three week break between new episodes, "Double Trouble" is set to air on Tuesday, March 21, 2023 at 8pm ET/PT.

The boy band era was the highlight of every 90s girl's childhood. We grew up listening and crushing on these boys that we all wallpapered down our rooms with their posters.

So why are we talking about boy bands from 20+ years ago (that just made me feel old)? Because the early 2000s are back and nostalgia is needed right now. The POP 2000 Tour is coming to New Jersey and to the Philadelphia area.

It's hosted by *NSYNC's Chris Kirkpatrick and features performances from: O-Town, Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray, The 2008 American Idol winner David Cook, Ryan Cabrera, and Brad Fischetti of LFO.

They'll be performing at Harrah's in Atlantic City on May 6, 2023, and at the Keswick Theatre in Glenside, PA on July 20, 2023.

Solution-based thinking was the name of the game on the second day of the annual Environmental Media Association Impact Summit, which featured sessions filled with searing insights and new ideas in the battle against climate change and environmental inequity.>

Singer and EMA board co-chair Lance Bass and Dr. Lori Bettison-Varga, president of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, rounded out the morning discussing "How Our Prehistoric Past Can Solve Today's Issues." They each spoke of the importance of science education and how museums can work as change agents, by linking past trends that have been identified as involving climate change and human footprints to what is occurring today.

Chris Kirkpatrick is tearing up Jessi Cruickshank's heart.

The 51-year-old founding member of '90s boy band *NSYNC spoke to the 40-year-old Canadian television personality during a "No Strings Attached" interview. Chatting on her "Phone a Friend" podcast, Cruickshank revealed she was ecstatic to ask the star questions she's been "dying to know since I was a tween."

In 1995, Kirkpatrick founded the boy band in Orlando, Florida, where the five-man group rose to superstardom. Over the course of four albums, *NSYNC earned numerous accolades, including eight Grammy nominations and seven MTV Video Music Awards, until they went on an indefinite hiatus in 2002.

Since then, Kirkpatrick has experienced numerous opportunities. Even in the past few years, he has performed at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival alongside Ariana Grande, appeared on reality TV shows like "The Masked Singer" and even earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame with his bandmates.

Hard to believe it's officially been 10 years since Justin Timberlake released The 20/20 Experience, and the singer is encouraging fans to celebrate the anniversary.

Sharing an unreleased behind-the-scenes look into making the music video for "Suit & Tie," Justin wrote on Instagram, "Wow. 10 years ago I released The 20/20 Experience. Found this clip this past week, which we never put out - and I can honestly say, looking back... I'm still blown away by the 'experience.'"

After saluting his team, the singer noted, "Still very proud of this one even a decade later. Play 20/20 loud today!"

The never-before-seen clip includes Justin saying he thinks "Suit & Tie" is "the biggest video I've ever done." He added, "We went for broke on this," and expressed how he wants to look back at the video and still feel it's the best one he's ever done.

Do you remember all the boy bands from the early 2000s? I remember being obsessed with O-Town like I knew every word to every song. Honestly, it probably wasn't that appropriate to know all their lyrics in 4th grade, but it wasn't until I was older that I realized the meaning behind the songs that I was singing.

Yes, I still know all the lyrics, it's like they were embedded in my brain, if you're in the same boat, you will be happy to know that O-Town is actually making their way to Hampton Beach in New Hampshire this summer.

O-Town will not be the only boyband coming though!

That's right, more boy bands, and even someone that you may recognize from the '90s and 2000s, *NSYNC's very own Chris Kirkpatrick will be hosting.

The Pop 2000 Tour will be happening at Bernie's Beach Bar, located at 73 Ocean Blvd, Hampton Beach, NH.

Former *NSYNC member Lance Bass grew up dreaming of becoming an astronaut and was planning on becoming an engineer - until a call from Justin Timberlake launched him on a very different trajectory, that is.

But for a six-month hiatus from the legendary boy band in 2002 - which would later turn into the disbandment of the group - Bass dived straight back into that childhood dream.

He spent that summer in Star City, Russia, training to become a cosmonaut - and possibly the youngest astronaut in the world, at the age of just 23.

"When I started training, NASA nor [Russia's counterpart] Roscosmos believed in me at all," Bass told Futurism in an interview. "All they saw was, 'oh, this boy band kid... they all thought I was an alcoholic and a drug addict. Like they just thought 'Rockstar, Rockstar.'"

"But they didn't think I would last a week," he added.

Bass went through a litany of tests, with training pushing him to his physical limits. The former popstar even learned some Russian - a skill that faded away over 20 years, he admits - to earn his ticket to space.

"Space training is quite the ride, from the centrifuge to parabolic flights to learning astrophysics and a different language," he said.

Jimmy Fallon revealed Monday just how close he feels to pal Justin Timberlake during an appearance on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen." (Watch the video below.)

Asked by a fan to share the most "bromantic" thing they've done for each other, the "Tonight Show" host recounted his sweet gift for the "Can't Stop The Feeling!" singer, saying he had "never talked about this."

"For his 40th [birthday] I gave him half of a medallion that says 'brothers forever,'" Fallon said, eliciting an "aw" from host Andy Cohen.

"So I have one half and he has one half," Fallon continued, comparing their matching accessories to those of the Wonder Twins superheroes.

"Are you wearing it now?" asked another guest on the program, actor Sam Claflin.

"Yes, but not around my neck," Fallon cracked.

Timberlake and Fallon first met at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards, bonding over their mutual flop sweat before appearing onstage.

Last year, they read "sweet tweets" about each other on the night Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel traded talk shows.

Tight buds indeed.

Andy Cohen is among the many celebrities to pay tribute to Real Housewives of Orange County star Heather Dubrow, who has revealed that her youngest child has come out as transgender.

Heather, 54, who is married to Terry Dubrow of Botched fame, shared the news on social media, telling her followers that her son is now called Ace and that she is "so proud" to be his mother.

"It's International sons day! We love you, our youngest son, Ace Our job as parents is to give our kids a safe and supportive environment so they can grow up as healthy, happy, confident, independent humans," she wrote.

"Since Ace is a 12 year old child, with a long life ahead of him - we will let him tell his own story someday if he chooses to do so. All we can say is Ace, we love you so much and we are proud to be your parents. Your brother and sisters love and support you too."

"Thank you all for spreading the love," commented Terry, 64, while Andy shared a series of clapping emojis, and Lance Bass wrote: "Acing the mom thing."

On Feb. 8, Lance Bass hosted GLAAD and the NFL's "A Night of Pride," sponsored by Smirnoff, at the Sheraton Downtown in Phoenix, AZ. This event kicked off the 34th GLAAD Media Awards, which will take place on March 30 in Los Angeles and May 13 in New York. The evening was highlighted by a performance from Betty Who along with a panel discussion highlighting the advances in and the future of LGBTQ inclusion in professional sports, as well as the NFL's commitment to the inclusion of LGBTQ NFL players and LGBTQ NFL legends in the league.

A number of LGBTQ leaders and allies attended the event, including NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, Justine Lindsay, Byron Perkins, Meredith Marks, Taylor Hale, and GLAAD President & CEO Sarah Kate Ellis. Bass spoke exclusively to PopCulture.com about his participation in "A Night of Pride," including the increasing number of future endeavors the star has undertaken to increase LGBTQ+ visibility in the greater community. He also continued to address the pressing question - when is NSYNC coming back?

How did you come to partner with Smirnoff as host of this year's "A Night of Pride?"

Lance: Well, I've done a few events with Smirnoff in the past and just love those guys, and it's just a good marriage with us. So when they asked me to do this Night of Pride with the NFL, I jumped at the chance because I love my sports, especially football. Bringing the NFL together with the gay community is just a perfect scenario for me. So I was super excited to go up and host this event, and it was beautiful, beautiful. Awesome.

When a Russian spaceship docked as a lifeboat for three stranded men at the International Space Station in February, one may have wondered if Sergei Krikalev, heading the rescue mission, felt any deja vu.

If that name doesn't ring a bell, he's also sometimes known as "the last Soviet" for his more than 311 days spent in space as the Soviet Union collapsed 250 miles beneath him in 1991. He was only meant to be at the Mir station for five months. Instead, he remained for close to a year, never abandoning the outpost.

Today, Krikalev, the former cosmonaut, is the executive director of human spaceflight for the Russian space agency. That means it's on his watch to make sure NASA astronaut Frank Rubio and cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitry Petelin get back home safely after their ship sprang a leak at the station in December 2022. The three marooned crew members were supposed to return this month. But their mission will now stretch for a year, until a new crew arrives to relieve them on a separate spacecraft in six months.

Krikalev's story of being stranded in space is now getting a perhaps overdue spotlight with a new podcast series called "The Last Soviet." And it's being told by another cosmonaut, Lance Bass.

If that name doesn't ring a bell, he's also sometimes known as the other blond heartthrob in *NSYNC. That's right: the Lance Bass, who sang "Tearin' up my heart" with JT, who had a cameo in Zoolander, a satire on the very serious ambitions of beautiful people.

Bass, now 43, might seem an unlikely bard for a podcast about the fall of the Iron Curtain and a space mission gone awry that left Krikalev without a country. Few may remember that boy-band member Bass almost made it to space on a Soyuz spacecraft himself. In 2002, he spent about six months, off and on, training in Star City, Russia, and was certified by Russia and NASA to fly a mission to the space station. At the last moment, Bass lost his seat aboard the ship when his Hollywood financiers failed to pony up $20 million to pay for the trip.

In a recent interview with Mashable, Bass said he learned about Krikalev's story while training on a Russian military base for his own mission. From then on, he considered the cosmonaut a personal hero.

Lance Bass, the host of his new iHeartPodcast "The Last Soviet," wonders if his son will have the space bug like him.

Every decade is remembered in snapshots, for it's news stories, music, movies and entertainers. In the 90's, we were being introduced to a lot of new ideas and fresh faces. The following 13 people will always be synonymous with the 90's and it is one of the reasons we love them.

Wait, did I mention they're all coming to CT in March? These 90's personalities will be featured guests at 90's Con on March 17, 18 and 19 at the Connecticut Convention Center.

Chris Kirkpatrick
Chris Kirkpatrick was a member of *NSYNC in the 90's, he was known as the one with the crazy hair.

Joey Fatone
Joey Fatone is another member of *NSYNC who will attend 90's Con. Fatone was known as the bad boy of the teen heartthrob group. *NSYNC has sold over 70 million records.

Singer Lance Bass is most well-known for his time in the pop culture-defining band *NSYNC. However, Bass has also had a lifelong interest in space exploration, a passion that led him, years ago, to becoming certified as a Russian cosmonaut. Now, Bass returns to the topic to uncover the historic journey of one famed spacefarer he'd heard much about while in Star City.

In 1991, cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev was above the Earth manning the world's only space station when as Soviet Union was collapsing. So, as the Soviet space agency fell, he was given a choice: Come home and abandon the station, or stay and protect it for however long it takes. Krikalev chose the latter, resulting in a 313 day journey that made history.

The Last Soviet, a new podcast from Kaleidoscope, iHeartPodcasts, and Samizdat Audio, features Lance Bass diving into this history, exploring lesser known details, and comparing his own space aspirations with Krikalev's story. And, after learning this much about that story, Bass imagines he would also follow in Krikalev's footsteps if given the same choices.

I recently spoke further with Lance Bass about what he finds most fascinating about Krikalev's story and what he hopes the impact of this podcast will be.

Anhar Karim: What drew you personally to the story of Sergei Krikalev?

Lance Bass: Yeah, you know I heard bits of Sergei's story when I was training over in Russia. They're very proud of their cosmonauts and what they created over there, so they love talking about their heroes. But I didn't know the details.

The stars will return to Desert Smash next month.

The biggest names in pro tennis and entertainment will battle on-court for a cause as the 19th annual Desert Smash returns to the world-renowned La Quinta Resort & Club on March 7, 2023.

Additional players to be announced in the coming weeks.

The Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC performing together? Well, that would be larger than life!

If you're a fan of '90s music, chances are you grew up begging boy bands to quit playing games with your heart, while also never wanting to say "Bye, Bye, Bye" to your favorites.

So, naturally, as *NSYNC's Lance Bass goes back in time to interview his musical peers in the new iHeartRadio podcast Frosted Tips, a common question has come up: Would his band team up with BSB for a concert tour?

"It's fun to think about," Lance told E! News in an exclusive interview. "I would say to fans don't give too much hope into it. It would take a lot to convince some of the guys to do something like that."

Perhaps needing the largest push is Justin Timberlake, who left the band for a solo career in 2002. Noting that "a lot of the guys are very purist and think *NSYNC is only these five guys," Lance said that without Justin, "it just doesn't seem right. A lot of convincing needs to happen in order for that to work. But I mean, never say never. Who knows."

At the height of his fame as a member of the internationally famous boy band *NSYNC, Lance Bass came within about two weeks of going to space in 2002.

Bass had completed four months of rigorous training in Russia's Star City during the spring and summer of that year, learning Russian and passing several challenging pre-launch tests. The plan was to fly up to the International Space Station on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft alongside two cosmonauts and spend about 10 days in orbit.

This was not a well-trodden path, especially for a 23-year-old musician who would have been by far the youngest person to fly into space. By mid-2002, only two wealthy businessmen, Dennis Tito and Mark Shuttleworth, had ever taken privately paid trips to space.

Since Bass could not independently finance the trip, he worked with Hollywood filmmakers. As Bass trained, a production team in Hollywood attempted to line up about $20 million in promotional financing to pay for the trip. Ultimately, this would be the adventure's undoing.

"There were a lot of problems with Russia and Hollywood in trying to make this happen," Bass said during a recent interview with Ars. "There were even a couple of weekends that I would get kicked off the base in Russia. They would put a gun to my head and be like, 'Where's the money? Where's the money?'"

Lance Bass still remembers the moment he was "bitten by the bug of space travel" - when his family took him to see his first rocket launch in Merritt Island, Florida.

At that point, the *NSYNC alum had a preexisting fascination with space, partly thanks to Nickelodeon's Double Dare and its space-camp grand prize, and maybe even more so thanks to his love for 1986's SpaceCamp. But seeing a rocket enter the sky for the first time marked the moment he was officially sold. Bass wanted to go to space.

"I always loved the idea of traveling, exploring, discovering things," Bass, 43, tells PEOPLE. "So, when they took me to the launch, it was just over at that point. I was like, 'This is what I want to do, and how do I become an astronaut? How do I go up there?'"

While Bass' life plan of becoming a space engineer was derailed due to a certain five-part harmony and a few chart-topping albums, he eventually trained in Star City, Russia to become a certified cosmonaut in 2002 for six months. Now, two decades later, Bass is sharing one of his favorite stories he learned from his time in Russia as narrator of the new podcast, The Last Soviet.

Lance Bass still wants to visit the International Space Station, two decades after his chance at spaceflight slipped away.

Bass, who was a member of the pop group *NSYNC, had spent months in training with Russia in 2002 for a mission to the International Space Station (ISS). His $20 million seat aboard a Russian Soyuz spacecraft was purchased through Dutch-based space tourism company MirCorp and bankrolled by a documentary. But the documentary's insurance company backed out just weeks before launch, and Bass lost his seat aboard the Soyuz, he told Space.com.

"I was so very highly disappointed, but it was still amazing to be able to finish that training," said Bass, who was 23 back then and would have been the youngest person ever to fly to space. (Getting to the ISS required him to be fluent in Russian space terms and to be able to conduct himself well in an emergency, among other requirements.)

Bass is now the host of a new podcast series called "The Last Soviet," which debuted on Wednesday (Feb. 15) as a joint production between Kaleidoscope, iHeartMedia, and Samizdat. And he's still shooting for space. But a quick suborbital jaunt with Blue Origin or Virgin Galactic is not Bass' style; floating around "for a few minutes" is "not something I'd care to do," he said, as he always had more scientific aims in mind.

Focus Features has set a September 8 global release date for My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3. That will give some breadth to the post-Labor Day box office and an option for older female moviegoers, that weekend already having New Line's The Nun 2 on the schedule.

Part 3 was written and directed by the franchise's creator Nia Vardalos and stars the Oscar-nominated screenwriter opposite John Corbett, Louis Mandylor, Elena Kampouris, Maria Vacratsis, Andrea Martin, Elias Kacavas, Gia Carides, Joey Fatone and Melina Kotselou.

As a member of one of the most beloved boy bands of all time, JC Chasez is the person to ask about today's popular groups, including BTS, ENHYPEN and more.

"I really like it," the *NSYNC member tells Billboard of the K-pop superstars. "It's going to happen for every generation, and we're always curious to see what is that voice of that generation. I think that the new scene is exciting. The dancing is absolutely incredible when you watch the performances these days, and how they're tricking out their performances. Even their songs, they have a different kind of magic about them because they have so many different sections, in a way, to create more excitement throughout the songs."

Chasez, who chatted with Billboard's Tetris Kelly fresh off of filming an upcoming Meow Mix commercial, where the cat food brand created their own feline boy band, also took some time to reminisce on "the greatest days of my life" making music with bandmates Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick, Lance Bass and Joey Fatone.

"We were fortunate enough to have a lot of great moments. The touring is amazing, but you have those one-off moments and they're going to stand out to you because you're among your peers," he recalls. "When we played the Super Bowl with Aerosmith and Mary J. Blige, that was amazing. When we sung to the Bee Gees at the Grammys, that was amazing because they were a boy band in their own way."

For the 30th anniversary of Krewe of Orpheus, it will be 'A Boy Band Mardi Gras' with members of *NSYNC, 98 Degrees, O-Town, and All-4-One who will be performing at the Orpheuscapade and taking part in the parade rolling on Lundi Gras.

WGNO's Kenny Lopez spoke with boy band members Joey Fatone of *NSYNC and Jeff Timmons of 98 Degrees who are ready to let the good times roll!

For 30 years musician Harry Connick Jr. and the Krewe of Orpheus have made Lundi Gras feel magical and one of the reasons it is so magical is the music. This year is no exception with *NSYNC's Joey Fatone and 98 Degrees' Jeff Timmons taking part in the party.

"Obviously they approached me about being a monarch and performing as well, so I'll be on a float and then performing. It is actually going to be 90's party if you will," Fatone said.

The National Pancreas Foundation (NPF) is hosting IMAGINATION GALA, an entertainment-packed fundraiser at The Breakers on Friday, March 3, 2023.

"Attendees will enjoy an evening full of music, philanthropy and dancing as we bring back the top hits of the 70s, 80s & 90s that shaped the music industry as we know it," promises Sarah Negrin, NPF's National Director of Development. "We hope our friends and supporters will join us for this amazing night in support of people suffering from pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer."

In addition, a portion of the proceeds from IMAGINATION GALA will benefit the new Pancreas Institute at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center under the University of Miami Health System.

Highlights of the black-tie event, generously sponsored by MicroSalt will include:

** Entertainment by Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC, the internationally popular boy band with such chart-topping hits as Bye Bye Bye, This I Promise You, Girlfriend, Pop, and It's Gonna Be Me.

I'm humbled and excited to have been asked to be a part of this year's National Pancreas Foundation event," says singer Joey Fatone. "Reading stories on the NPF website about children like Jordan, who was just three years old when he was first diagnosed, really makes me want to spread the word and shine light on pancreatic disease. When my manager first brought this offer to the table, he led with 'these guys actually put the money they raise right back into the cause'-so it was a 'no-brainer' for me."

Tickets to this memorable event start at $1,250 and can be purchased by calling 561.803.5483 or via PBGALA.givesmart.com

The highly anticipated Studio One Forever Documentary is screening in Los Angeles and Palm Springs as part of a fundraising effort to capture costs for the final music licensing, because as we all know, Studio One was all about the music. Everyone is invited to catch a screening in Los Angeles at the Sunset Cinelounge located at 6464 Sunset Blvd., on March 2, 2023, at 6:30 p.m. There will be a second showing in Palm Springs at Camelot Theatres at 2300 E Baristo Rd, on March 9, 2023, at 6:30 p.m.

Studio One was the center of queer nightlife in West Hollywood as well as the staging ground for the rise of the LGBTQ rights movement and fight against the AIDS crisis. The documentary directed by Marc Saltarelli, features familiar faces like Liz Torres, Divine (archival), Geri Jewell, Bruce Vilanch, Leigh McCloskey, Chita Rivera, Lance Bass, Melissa Rivers, and so many more.

It's Arizona's turn to host the Super Bowl, and celebrities are making their way to metro Phoenix to perform sets across town, party and check out some golf at the WM Phoenix Open golf tournament at TPC Scottsdale.

Major figures in music, entertainment and sports, including Jay-Z, Cardi B, Rihanna, Aaron Rodgers, Kevin Hart, Shaquille O'Neal, Serena Williams and Paris Hilton are just a few of the people expected to be in town. Many more will surely appear unannounced as we get closer to Super Bowl 57 on Sunday, Feb. 12, at State Farm Stadium in Glendale.

Here's everyone we've spotted so far at events or on social media.

Lance Bass, who's perhaps best known for being in *NSYNC, emceed A Night of Pride on Feb. 8 in downtown Phoenix. He told The Republic on the purple carpet that "To be visible is amazing. ... I feel like the tide is really turning in sports. For so long no one really paid attention to the gay players or the gay fans, and now we're just out and proud and enjoying it."

During the event, he shouted out the drag queens in attendance because "You're getting a lot of hate right now. We see you; we love you."

A couple that works out together, stays together. That is, if Justin Timberlake allows wife Jessica Biel to stay fit. The Candy actress shared a recent video to Instagram of herself exercising with her personal trainer, in which she received an unexpected and funny interruption from the former *NSYNC member while completing a set of weighted lunges.

As Biel gets close to completing the exercise, she cracks up and demands, "Justin, stop." The camera then focuses on the pop star, who attempts to sway her focus by wiggling and shimmying his legs and hips in tune with a jazzy track that plays in the background.

Timberlake cheekily responds, "What? What? It's not distracting?" The distraction was all in good fun. Biel captioned the video, "In the gym with @benbrunotraining... and some other guy who won't stop distracting me!!"

What do Justin Timberlake, a Reedley packinghouse and a Kingsburg trucker have in common? They all want to get rid of food waste.

With celebrity buzz, a $9 million capital raise and a spot on a national grocer's shelves, a unique local dried fruit processor will get the facility and equipment it needs to expand operations.

In the years since The Ugly Co.'s inception, Ben Moore has gained a lot of interest in his business model. Moore began driving trucks after returning home from the military. He wanted to go back to work on his family's farm, but his father told him there wasn't much in the way of work. He began hauling hundreds of thousands of pounds of food waste.

Moore also wanted an investor who could legitimize the brand. He ended up getting in contact with Justin Timberlake. The pop star's fund manager had been a good friend with Moore and Timberlake and his kids "loved the product," Moore said.

Lance Bass, a member of pop group *NSYNC and a trained Russian cosmonaut, is hosting a new podcast series about space.

Bass will host The Last Soviet, which tells the story of Russian astronaut Sergei Krikalev's 313 days in space during the collapse of the USSR.

The eight-part series, which comes from iHeartPodcasts and Kaleidoscope, will launch on February 15.

In 2002, Bass underwent training in Star City, Russia and became a certified cosmonaut. He was certified both by the Russian Space Program and by NASA for a mission on the Soyuz TMA-1 spacecraft to the International Space Station but after his financial sponsors backed out, Bass was denied a seat on the mission.

Krikalev was stranded on board Mir during the dissolution of the Soviet Union and his return was delayed for twice as long as the mission was planned originally.

"I fell in love with space when my grandfather took me to see my first rocket launch as a kid. I even came close to achieving my dream of going to space 20 years ago when I trained with the Russian Space Agency for a mission to the International Space Station (ISS). Although I haven't made it to space yet, I'm thrilled to be able to share my passion with listeners and provide them with a unique perspective on space travel as the host of The Last Soviet," said Lance Bass.

A king deserves a royal court. Which is why on Tuesday night (Feb. 7), a galaxy of stars congratulated basketball legend LeBron James for becoming NBA's all-time scoring leader when he broke Kareem-Abdul Jabbar's three decade-long record. During a game against the Oklahoma City Thunder at the Los Angeles Lakers' home Crypto.com Arena, James passed Jabbar's career total of 38,387 points after weeks of breathless anticipation of his crowning achievement and everyone from Rihanna to Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars gave him his props.

Timberlake tossed a GOAT emoji into a tweet in which he marveled, "on a step back too!," while Wayne wrote, "Kongrats King!! Glad to say I've shaken your hand brudda. God bless you and the fam and the homies."

Lance Bass sat down with Billboard News on Tuesday (Feb. 7) to spill all the tea about his new podcast, Lance Bass Presents: Frosted Tips, and whether *NSYNC fans might ever get the reunion they've always wanted.

Chatting with Billboard's own Tetris Kelly, the boy band veteran said he initially conceived of the project as a podcast that "really celebrated the fandom out there," and it's the perfect excuse for fans to take a time-traveling trip back to the heyday of the early 2000s.

According to the *NSYNC star, his other goal for the show was to use it as a vehicle for "telling stories we were never allowed to tell before."

"We had to keep it very PG back in the day," he said. "And there was a lot of stuff going down behind the curtain. There's definitely a lot of secrets being told. It's a really great look at the music industry, especially in that era. You know, how everything went down, what we all experienced. There's so many similarities. A lot of the issues we were dealing with at the time were kept out of public view because we didn't want the fans to know."

So far, the podcast has featured Bass' bandmates J.C. Chasez and Joey Fatone, as well as A.J. McLean of Backstreet Boys, Jeff Timmons of 98 Degrees and Jonathan Knight of New Kids on the Block.

Lance Bass and his husband, Michael Turchin, introduced their twins to Hollywood, and the kiddos shined in their red-carpet debut!

The 43-year-old *NSYNC singer and 36-year-old Turchin brought their 1-year-old twins, Violet Betty and Alexander James, to the Gold Meets Golden event on Saturday in Beverly Hills, California. The couple told ET's Deidre Behar that they had no idea there was going to be a red carpet event, which is why they opted for "rock and roll gear."

Bass wore a white polo shirt while Turchin sported a colorful top. As for their kids, they wore adorable matching kicks along with tiny T-shirts and jeans. Bass took to Instagram on Saturday and posted a pic of the couple with former Los Angeles Lakers star Metta Sandiford-Artest (formerly Ron Artest). In the photo, Artest can be seen carrying Violet while Bass holds a gift bag.

While speaking to ET, the couple's son grabbed the mic. "He does like a microphone, I have to say," Bass quipped.

WGNO's Kenny Lopez spoke with *NSYNC's Joey Fatone about being one of the Krewe of Orpheus' celebrity monarchs this year.

Fatone is no stranger to New Orleans and he took a little trip down memory lane telling us a story about the last time he went to world-famous Pat O's and drank their signature 'Hurricane' drinks.

This year's Orpheus parade theme, 'Dark Dictums of Childhood' will roll Uptown with 42 floats, 1,500 riders, and 30 marching bands. The parade will be led by Emmy and Golden Globe award winner Darren Criss, who also starred on the hit TV show, "Glee." Another face you will recognize leading the parade is Joey Fatone from the superpop band, "*NSYNC." Both Fatone and Criss will be this year's monarchs. Joey Fatone will headline the post parade gala, "Orpheuscapade," which is open to the public.

The Krewe of Orpheus will celebrate its 30th anniversary on Monday, February 20th for Lundi Gras.

Lance Bass is enjoying watching his children grow.

"Since two months old, we knew their personalities, and they've just gotten more exaggerated," Bass tells PEOPLE about 15-month-old twins Alexander James and Violet Betty at the Gold Meets Golden 10th Anniversary on Saturday.

"You know, she's our bookworm, she loves to read and just be chill," he adds of his daughter, while her brother "just wants all the attention and just wants to get in trouble all the time."

The Frosted Tips podcast host, 43 - who shares his children with partner Michael Turchin, 36 - also opened up about the key parenting lessons he's learned since their children were born via surrogate on Oct. 13, 2021.

"I've learned patience," he shares at The Virginia Robinson Gardens and Estate in Beverly Hills, California. "I mean if you don't have patience, it's a lot, because it can get very overwhelming. And I am not a patient person. But you know, they've definitely taught me a lot."

On Saturday, Clive Davis's star-studded pre-Grammy Gala returned for the first time since 2020, bringing together music icons, Grammy nominees, Oscar winners, politicians, Hollywood execs and tech titans to pay homage, celebrate and perform.

JC Chasez of *NSYNC fame has been invited to Davis's party numerous times and enjoys that details are never released in advance. "I love that this event is full of surprises. You never know coming in who all is going to be performing," he said. "You're always surprised by who actually goes up there."

*NSYNC's Lance Bass and Husband Michael Turchin dropped by the Ellen K Morning Show to talk about Fatherhood and co-hosting their NEW Frosted Tips podcast.

The new Daddies are embarking on a brand-new chapter in their life and shared all of it with Ryan Manno and Social Queen Darlene.

Yet again, the NFL and GLAAD are again teaming up to host a "night of Pride" in Phoenix during the week leading up to Super Bowl LVII between Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.

The event - slated for February 8 - will feature NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell as well as out bisexual former NFL player RK Russell, out gay Hampton University defensive back Byron Jenkins, GLAAD president and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis, *NSYNC star Lance Bass, recording artist Betty Who, RuPaul's Drag Race cast members, and several others. The event will be held at the Sheraton Downtown Phoenix. Folks will begin arriving on the red carpet at 6 p.m., followed by panels and performances at 7 p.m.

The evening is slated to include music, cocktails, and discussions surrounding inclusion in sports. There will be a panel discussion about how sports can advance LGBTQ acceptance and fight discrimination against queer individuals, including student-athletes.

Parenthood keeps tearin' up Lance Bass' heart.

Less than two years after the *NSYNC member and his husband Michael Turchin welcomed twins via surrogate, the couple can't believe all of the personality traits daughter Violet Betty and son Alexander James are already showing.

"The fact that they're now running up to you and hugging you is the best feeling in the world," Lance shared with E! News in an exclusive interview. "Our son and daughter are very opposite of each other, which I love. She's the type that will just be in the corner reading a book. She's so independent. She's like, 'I got this.'"

As for Alexander, Michael is quick to call him a "ball of crazy energy" after he made Lance a little nervous with his interests.

Last month, the couple brought their 16-month-old kids to Songs for Tomorrow, a benefit concert for mental health and inspired by the life of Aaron Carter. After Alexander saw the stage, Lance says he immediately showed an interest in the world of music.

"I think he got the entertainment bug, because we took them out of a club here called HEART Weho," Lance recalled. "They saw Nick Carter and everyone rehearsing and my son was just in awe. He had to get on stage. He held a microphone for the first time and he knew. I'm like, 'Oh no, we might have a performer.'"

Speaking with ET Canada Pride's Dallas Dixon, Lance Bass reacts to the recent passing of his "frosted tips brother" Aaron Carter, while recalling meeting the late singer at 7-years-old.

Lance Bass' latest project is what boy band dreams are made of.

He's launched a new podcast called, "Frosted Tips," where he sits down with members of New Kids on the Block, *NSYNC, and Backstreet Boys to talk about what their experience was like during the peak of their careers and what they are up to now.

"It's fun because, back in the day, everyone was pitted against each other. So, I wanted to create a show where we could actually all talk about what we went through," he explained to KTLA 5's Sam Rubin. "It's fun to reveal a lot of the things we wanted to keep secret back in the day because we all had to be very PG, but it wasn't a PG world back then."

He's talked to NKTOB's Jordan Knight, did a two-part episode with Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean, and caught up with fellow bandmates JC Chasez and Joey Fatone.

"Talking with AJ McLean, it was amazing to hear about his sobriety and how he started going down the path of addiction," the "Bye Bye Bye" singer revealed. "Those were the things fans never got a front-row seat to because you kind of hid that from the world because you didn't think anyone really wanted to hear that."

The "Larger Than Life" singer made headlines after his appearance on the podcast when he suggested *NSYNC and BSB join forces for a tour in 2024. Bass said he was interested but said it would all come down to one person.

Of course, the rumor mill revealed that the person is Justin Timberlake.

One would assume the podcast's audience would be strictly Gen-X and millennials, but Bass said Gen-Z is tuning also because of social media.

"Thanks to platforms like TikTok, people actually know our music. It's been fun to see the juxtaposition of Gen-Z with the millennials," he said. "I think it's really good parenting out there to those millennials who let their kids know who *NSYNC is. "

While the podcast is starting out in the boy band realm, Bass is hoping to extend it to teen idols, especially the ones with "frosted tips."

Listen to "Frosted Tips" wherever you get your podcasts.

Sweet birthday love! Jessica Biel gushed about husband Justin Timberlake for his birthday - and offered a glimpse at their fun adventures.

"Happy birthday to the person who challenges and inspires me every day. The person who keeps me laughing and creating and risking it all," the actress, 40, wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, January 31. "The person who makes the ordinary extraordinary. You know who you are. I love you."

In the social media upload, Biel included a silly selfie of the couple while on a boat. The post also had a photo of the Candy alum and Timberlake, 42, posing for the camera during the trip.

Joey Fatone is opening up about navigating co-parenting after his divorce.

Speaking on *NSYNC bandmate Lance Bass' Frosted Tips podcast, Fatone, 46, reflected on the ups and downs of sharing daughters Kloey Alexandra, 13, and Briahna, 21, with ex-wife Kelly Baldwin.

Despite being together for 20 years, Fatone noted "parenting is always a challenge."

"People always think, you know, you're a celebrity so when you get divorced or you have the kids, you could do the nannies, you have the money, and you got this and that. Well, it's irrelevant. I think all of that money and all that s--- is really irrelevant."

Instead, it's time with his family that is what really matters to Fatone when approaching co-parenting. "It's more or less about making sure you're creating that time for each other. When I first got divorced, I didn't know what to do."

Fatone admitted that he "thought I was gonna lose my kids" because "I screwed up," but the former couple was ultimately able to work through some differences.

Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Voices is announcing a new digital and Connected TV ad campaign today with former *NSYNC singer Lance Bass to highlight the fact that Congress has not reauthorized the Small Business Administration (SBA) in the 23 years since the band's "No Strings Attached" tour swept the United States.

"Let me take you back to the year 2000," Bass says in the new ad. "*NSYNC had the best selling CD of the year. Times have changed. But you know what hasn't changed? The Small Business Administration, which Congress has not reauthorized since 2000, which means small businesses are still getting the same kind of support they got when dial-up internet service was widely used. As if!"

The new ad released today, which will air on Connected TV and digital platforms, is part of a campaign that Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Voices kicked off last year with the delivery of a letter signed by more than 3,000 small business owners from all 50 states calling on Members of Congress to work together on legislation reauthorizing the SBA.

In the 23 years since Bass toured with *NSYNC, CDs, fax machines, and acid wash jeans have gone by the wayside, but the small businesses that employ nearly half of America's private sector workforce are still getting the same assistance they did back then. In fact, many small businesses are still asked to fax forms to the SBA in order to receive assistance.

"We're excited to be teaming up with Lance Bass to highlight the urgent need for Congress to reauthorize the Small Business Administration," added Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Voices National Director Joe Wall. "We look forward to continuing our conversations with lawmakers in the days and weeks ahead so that today's small business owners can get the support they need from the federal government."

Justin Timberlake is among the slew of celebrities reacting to Tyre Nichols' violent and deadly arrest earlier this month at the hands of five Memphis Police officers, whose horrific attack was captured on multiple police body cameras as well as street surveillance video.

The videos, released Friday night by Memphis police, show officers tasing, chasing and beating Nichols, 29, who cops initially claimed was pulled over for reckless driving. Since the video's release, Memphis police have said there's no proof he was driving recklessly.

For three minutes, Nichols was pummeled, punched and kicked, all the while he cried for his mother, whose house was approximately 100 yards away. It's been reported that Nichols, an avid skateboarder and photographer, was on his way home from taking sunset photos at a park.

It took nearly 20 minutes before Nichols received medical care, and approximately 40 minutes after paramedics arrived at the scene he was finally taken to a nearby hospital, where he died three days later.

The five police officers involved -- Emmitt Martin III, Justin Smith, Tadarrius Bean, Desmond Mills Jr. and Demetrius Haley -- were fired by the department and charged with second-degree murder, aggravated assault-acting in concert, two counts of aggravated kidnapping, 2 counts of official misconduct and official oppression.

Two other Shelby, Tennessee County Sheriff's Deputies at the scene were also relieved of duty pending an investigation.

"I'm heartbroken and angry to see another family, another community hurting due to police brutality," tweeted Timberlake, a native of Memphis. "I stand with my hometown and the people of Memphis as we demand justice and accountability. #JusticeforTyreNichols."

Lance Bass and AJ McLean are settling the debate about the rumored feud between their two boy bands once and for all.

As two of the biggest groups of the '90s, it's long been assumed that there was a major rivalry between Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC while they battled for the top spot on the pop charts.

But *NSYNC's Bass decided to prove there is no bad blood between the two groups by posting a TikTok video with BSB's McLean.

On Jan. 25, Bass uploaded a video of himself and McLean acting out their response to the prompt, "When people ask about the *NSYNC and BSB feud ..."

In the clip, McLean lip syncs an audio snippet that says, "You know what it never was? That serious."

Bass responds in agreement, mouthing along, "It was never that serious."

"Quite frankly, will never be that serious," McLean concludes.

Bass' video setting the record straight followed McLean's appearance on "Frosted Tips with Lance Bass," a new podcast from the pop star. In a clip from the episode, McLean pitched Bass an idea that would bring the two beloved groups together.

"*NSYNC. Backstreet Boys. Stadium tour. 2024," McLean said.

While Bass is in, he said that he's not the one McLean would "have to convince."

"I'm just putting it out there," McLean responds. "I think the world would implode."

NEW DATE, SAME GREAT PARTY!

A ST. PATRICK'S DAY BLOW OUT

Join pop sensations Joey Fatone & Ryan Cabrera for a night of good ol' fashion sing-a-long Karaoke. This will be from your average karaoke experience, This I Promise You. Not only will you have the chance to jam out with Joey & Ryan up on stage, but you'll be performing with a full live band who's got your back in making you feel like a true pop star.

THIS IS NOT a singing competition whatsoever. It's all about energy and having fun. If you don't want to sing on stage, no problem. The show is meant to be enjoyable for all, even as a spectator. It'll be your most memorable bonding experience of the year, an evening of belting out and dancing to your favorite tunes, with your favorite people.

The Songs for Tomorrow benefit concert, which was held in memory of the late Aaron Carter, raised over $150,000 for a children's mental health charity.

The benefit, which attracted over 600 concertgoers, was organized by Aaron's twin sister, Angel Conrad. It was held Wednesday at HEART WeHo in Los Angeles, California. All proceeds directly benefited the children's mental health charity On Our Sleeves.

Angel previously said she was inspired to put the concert together after watching Aaron struggle with his own mental health.

The night featured performances by Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, AJ McLean, Nick Carter and more. Nick also performed his tribute song to his little brother, "Hurts to Love You," for the first time at the concert.

In addition, Aaron's unreleased song "Recovery" was played for the crowd. Brad Fischetti also turned on the waterworks by talking about his connection to Aaron, and losing bandmates Rich Cronin and Devin Lima to cancer. He stressed the importance of reaching out for help, and put two pairs of sneakers onstage to honor his late bandmates while he performed "Summer Girls" and "Girl on TV."

The night closed out with Nick, Lance, AJ, LFO and fellow performers David Archuleta, Ryan Cabrera, B. Howard, Jeff Timmons and O-Town doing a special performance of John Lennon's "Imagine." Nick revealed Aaron would often sing the song.

Jonathan Knight looked back on his coming out journey in a new conversation with Lance Bass on Monday (Jan 16).

Speaking on the latest episode of the *NSYNC member's podcast, Lance Bass Presents: Frosted Tips, the New Kids on the Block singer explained that his manager knew he was gay at the time, but instructed him to stay closeted for the sake of the boy band. "He pulled me aside and was like, 'If anybody finds out, your career is over. The New Kids' career is over. My career is over,'" he recalled. "It was just so much pressure.

"Looking back, that was a lot of pressure to put on somebody who's just trying to figure out the world themselves," the '80s heartthrob went on. "As it went along, the stress built up and built up and built up."

Ultimately, Knight was forced out of the closet in 2009 after a former boyfriend sold photos of himself with the star to The National Enquirer. At the time, he felt forced to address his identity publicly, saying, "I didn't want to. I was just living my life ... it wasn't something I was hiding. But then it was like, 'No, you have to make a statement. You have to clear the air.' And that whole process was horrible."

During his chat with Bass and guest co-host Joey Fatone, Knight also shared his struggle to have kids with husband Harley Rodriguez, revealing that the couple spent five years trying to start a family. "It just didn't happen for us," he told his fellow boy banders. "Going through the process, like, 'Today's the day the eggs are being [transferred], you're so excited, and you're so happy. And then, you know, a week later it's like, 'No, you're back to square one.'"

Listen to Knight's full interview on Lance Bass Presents: Frosted Tips below.

Hello peanuts, the show he's talked about doing for three years is finally here.

That's right, *NSYNC's own Lance Bass and his husband Michael Turchin are taking us all back to the 90's in their newest podcast Frosted Tips with Lance Bass.

"You know I always did want frosted tips growing up, but I never did it," said Turchin.

The show aims to bring in a boy band icon every week and really get to know them. For their first episode JC Chasez comes to talk about the *NSYNC days, however Bass had another topic he is really interested in.

"The amount of people that came from the Disney Channel, especially (the Mickey Mouse Club) at that era," said Bass. "There were some great, great people in there and not even to mention the people who auditioned and didn't even make it. But no one really cares to talk about it."

Chasez joked that booking him for the podcast was an easy call for Bass to make. Turchin added that once on an Instagram live, he joked that Chasez lived in a tree in the couple's backyard since he is always being asked about his husband's former bandmate. But this interview was huge, mostly because the former boy band member doesn't do public interviews.

Patrons at a popular South Beach LGBTQ+ space were treated to more than the drag performances they had expected during brunch when *NSYNC's Joey Fatone took over the microphone on Sunday and sang one of the boy band's most well-known hits.

Fatone was reportedly in Miami for a bachelor party last weekend when the group decided to head to the Palace, a popular drag bar on South Beach.

As drag queens Tiffany Fantasia and Elishaly D'witshes began to perform "Bye Bye Bye," Fatone joined the performers. The song was a smash hit for *NSYNC in 2000.

The Palace posted a video of the excitement on Instagram.

At first, he's seen dancing along to the famous song. Then, Fatone grabbed the microphone from one of the queens and, to the audience's delight, began to sing the hit live.

As he sang, Fatone danced some of the choreography for which the boy band was known.

The assembled crowd cheered on the singer while he took the energy being sent his way and indulged the crowd further.

With fans clacking, cheers, and even a confetti rain made of money, the audience, drag queens, and Fatone all appeared to enjoy the moment.

In art, everyone has influences who came before their turn in spotlight. Elvis loved Fats Domino, AC/DC loved Little Richard, and Justin Timberlake adored Gangsta Boo. The Memphis rapper has died, and now the one-time boy band member is paying tribute.

The 41-year-old posted the above to his Instagram stories earlier today after news broke of the 43-year-old - whose real name was Lola Chantrelle Mitchell - being found dead Sunday. At the present time a cause of death is not known for the onetime Three 6 Mafia member and Timberlake said her legacy will go on as she inspires many working in the industry today.

After leaving the group where she found initial renown in 2002, Mitchell later collaborated with Eminem and Run the Jewels. Her catalogue also includes three solo albums, multiple guest appearances, and on Twitter others also say this is a painful and early loss.

he Krewe of Orpheus will celebrate its 30th anniversary Monday, Feb. 20 as it parades through the city of New Orleans and hosts its annual "Orpheuscapade" event at the Morial Convention Center.

The krewe's 2023 parade theme, "Dark Dictums of Childhood," will roll Uptown with a procession of 42 floats, 1,500 members and 30 marching units led by Emmy and Golden Globe winner Darren Criss and original *NSYNC member Joey Fatone as monarchs. Fatone will headline the krewe's the post-parade gala.

"The Krewe of Orpheus is well-known across the world for our celebrity monarchs and impressive Orpheuscapade entertainment lineup," said Sonny Borey, the krewe's captain. "Our 2023 monarchs include legends of music, film and television that could only be brought together on Lundi Gras evening."

An actor, singer and songwriter, Criss rose to fame starring on the television series "Glee" and received Emmy and Golden Globe awards for his leading role in "The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story." He also appears on and has released several albums.

Since *NSYNC, Fatone has found success as a host, Broadway actor, voiceover artist, dancer and media personality.

The parade and party will also feature "A Boy Band Mardi Gras." The lineup includes Jeff Timmons, Drew Lachey and Justin Jeffre of 98 Degrees, Erik-Michael Estrada of O-Town, Jamie Jones of All-4-One and Ryan Cabrera.

After a busy year, Jessica Biel is looking forward to spending the holiday season with her family.

"We spend Christmas all over the place," the actress tells PEOPLE exclusively. "We never know where we're going to be. We have no tradition really around it. Sometimes we're in snow, sometimes we're by the ocean. We have no rhyme or reason currently as to where we should be or where we're going to be."

The 40-year-old shares sons Silas, 7, and Phineas, 2, with her husband of almost nine years, Justin Timberlake, 41.

"Wherever we are, we will have some kind of tree and we will be up nice and early, and we will be enjoying that wonderful morning where they tear through a couple of presents and then get bored and don't want to do it anymore," Biel adds. "Then you spend days and days of presents still under the tree."

Justin Timberlake is the latest to share condolences following the tragic death of Stephen "tWitch" Boss, former DJ on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, who died by suicide at age 40 on Wednesday (Dec. 14).

"It's heartbreaking to hear that someone who brought so much joy to a room, was hurting so much behind closed doors," the "Can't Stop the Feeling" singer wrote in a series of tweets. "I've known Twitch for over 20 years through the dance community - he always lit everything up. You just never know what someone is really going through."

He also shared a sweet photo of tWitch holding up Timberlake's wife, Jessica Biel, Dirty Dancing-style during an Ellen appearance. "Take care of yourselves. LOVE that human in the mirror. Check on your people. Sending light to his beautiful family in this dark, confusing time. You will be missed, Sir. Rest Easy," Timberlake concluded.

If you're thinking about suicide, or are worried about a friend or loved one, contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, available 24 hours, at 1-800-273-8255.

When Brandon Gruber, the part-time board of directors at the National Down Syndrome Society, met Lance Bass, he was wearing a newsprint vest he'd designed himself and a shirt emblazoned with the phrase, "Be Yourself." Soon enough, Gruber had the singer and pop culture personality dressed in the black version of that same vest and was giving him pointers on how to walk a runway. When the two posed side by side for a photo shoot, Gruber held up a sign reading "I'm the Designer." He's quick to share that he's a lot more than that, too.

The collaboration was the product of a partnership between the National Down Syndrome Society and Fashion's Fight, a production company formed in 2008 by model Shannon Rusbuldt with the intention of aiding nonprofits in creating celebrity-aligned PSA campaigns that have an impact. The campaign on which the two worked, Bridging the Gap, gave Gruber, who has Down Syndrome, the chance to style Bass, who tells LAMag that saying yes to the collaboration was an easy decision for him to make.

"This is personal," Bass says while discussing his cousin, Amber Pullman, who has Down Syndrome. She is the namesake of a Special Education Endowment Bass established in 2003 and a major influence on the former member of *NSYNC. "I think one of the main misconceptions is that Down syndrome is a disease," Bass says of the stigmas he's hopeful campaigns like Bridging the Gap will help jettison, emphasizing that like many conditions, it's often viewed as an illness.

Gruber's achievements only grew once he was given a chance: He went on to a crowning as his school's homecoming king, earning The Diana Award for humanitarian work in 2019, performing in Allegiance with the Palo Alto Players, and debuting his Be Yourself Fashion line at 2021's Pivot Fashion show in Santa Cruz, where he also hit the runway.

"I felt bold," Gruber says of his times under runway lights. This is the infectious passion that Bass picked up on while working with Gruber. The singer describes it as "pure love."

"Art is such a powerful tool," Bass added and notes the universality of its relatability. "Art, music - it's a universal language."

Lynn Harless, Justin Timberlake's mother, sent TODAY style contributor Bobbie Thomas a text message following her return to the TODAY show more than a year after the death of her husband.

"Dear Bobbie, it feels like you see me. It feels like you created this new segment for those of us who wake up every day and struggle to put on our happy faces, so the ones we love don't see our anguish," Harless wrote.

Harless' husband and Timberlake's stepfather, Paul Harless, has been living with dementia for more than a decade. She joined Bobbie to share her experience caring for her husband on TODAY.

"I try to push my grief down every day while I'm here walking through it and missing the intimacy of just a conversation or a touch," Harless continued in her message to Bobbie. "People don't know how to act around Paul. They keep their distance, and it makes the loneliness so dark and if possible, even more sad."

Harless joined Bobbie, who she's known since Timberlake's *NSYNC days in the 1990s, along with former TODAY co-host Kathie Lee Gifford and Little Big Town's Kimberly Schlapman to talk about their experiences with grief.

In honor of Aaron Carter, who died at the beginning of November, his twin sister, Angel Conrad, and Lance Bass are co-hosting a charity concert to raise awareness for mental health.

The Aaron's Party (Come Get It) singer died on Nov. 5. He was 35. At the time, a representative from his management team confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that Carter was found dead in his California home. No cause of death has been revealed.

The "Songs for Tomorrow" benefit concert is set for Jan. 18, 2023, in West Hollywood. Conrad said that all proceeds will be donated to On Our Sleeves, a national movement to break stigmas around children's mental health.
