Former 'N Sync member Joey Fatone offered a simple piece of easier said than done advice to Justin Bieber, whose image is taking a beating in the media as he behaves badly. Fatone declared, "Don't be a douche."
The former boy bander, who was able to navigate the trappings
Britney Spears has defeated Christina Aguilera in our first-ever Throwback Thursday battle! It was a close race, but Brit's breakthrough hit '...Baby One More Time' managed to overtake Xtina's 'Genie in a Bottle,' garnering more than 51% of the fan votes. Congratulations to Britney and all of her fans that voted!
In pop music, we have "New Couple Alerts." But our favorite trouble magnet Chris Brown has his own category and it's a "New Feud Alert," since he is engaged in so many of them. The latest feud to pop up on the Breezy radar? Former 'N Sync member Lance Bass, who disapproves his use of the "F" word.
Who are all those other guys standing around our beloved JT? Kidding! But seriously, every boy band has one, and Justin Timberlake was the bonafide heartthrob in 'N Sync.
When Justin Bieber's 'Boyfriend' video dropped, filled with rooftop dancing and fast cars, he claimed to have no prior knowledge of 'N Sync's vid for 'Girlfriend,' which was similarly named and themed.
Well, someone who goes by the Raheemdaplaya04 handle has buckets of creativity and a whole lot of time on their hands, not to mention the digital equipment and the wherewithal, since they created a mashup of both songs and videos. The end result is seamless and flawless, proving that the videos and the songs are closely related.
Justin Bieber's record-shattering 'Boyfriend' video drew a few comparisons to 'N Sync's 'Girlfriend' clip, a critique that the Biebs himself shot down by claiming that he never even saw that vid. That didn't stop him from throwing props to the boy band's most famous member, Justin Timberlake, though.
A moron. That's what the usually sharp dressed man known as Justin Timberlake thinks he looked like during his tenure in 'N Sync. Looking back at some of the photos of their attire, we're not going to dispute his criticism of himself, even though we love him just the same.
For those still holding out hope that 'N Sync will follow New Kids on the Block's lead and re-form to make new music and go on tour, JC Chasez says not to hold your breath.
It's the timeless debate between pop fans who lived through the late '90s / early '00s: 'N Sync or Backstreet Boys? Back in they heyday, these two quintets pretty much ruled the airwaves and television, with their songs bumping from car stereos and headphones all over the world and their music videos playing on repeat on networks like MTV. Oh, and don't forget the sold-out world tours!
