*NSYNC ‘Greatest Hits’

NSYNC 'Greatest Hits' album cover

Contributed anonymously: Personally, I’m disappointed with *NSYNC’s Greatest Hits album. I mean, couldn’t they at least get them all together so they could at least have a new picture on the cover? This album could be a huge success if they had at least one new song on it or even just did some publicity for it. As a huge *NSYNC fan I’m disappointed that the boys couldn’t even end their *NSYNC careers in a respectable fashion. Even if they don’t get along or whatever, surely they could do it for their fans? That’s not too much to ask is it?

Teen Mags Losing Celeb Spark

March 5, 2005 - The New York Daily News reports that in the post teen-pop era, magazines catering to the age group have seen falling circulation and forced editors to look harder at the fashion and real-girl stories they put between the covers. “It’s not about the celebrity anymore,” declared Atoosa Rubenstein, editor in chief of Seventeen. “When teen celebrities were at a phenomenal pitch, the question was which magazine had different photos of *NSYNC this month. It didn’t matter what was inside.” Now, Rubenstein said, “unless the person on the cover is a loser, [the readers] do a flip through the magazine, and that’s the key to getting that sale.”

Where Are We Now: *NSYNC Fans

February 8, 2005 - Contributed Anonymously: I was fourteen years old, when I first saw *NSYNC. They were performing on the Disney channel and something inside of me knew I would never forget them. 4 months later I was a bonafide *NSYNC fanatic!!! Their concerts, albums, TV appearances and my constant daydreaming of them consumed my life!! My crazy love for 5 white boys increased after a year if you can believe but like anything else decreased after 5 months, 8months and then 2 years. I went through a *NSYNC detox. I will always love them because of there influence on me, and it was fun while it lasted! I also had an abusive childhood and loving them made me feel normal. So thank you to everyone but, Mr. Timberlake!! I spent almost 4 years loving, defending, praying and promoting him and he turns out to be the biggest dick that I could ever know of!!!! Acts as if he sooo sweet but when you meet him he’s a jerk, punks out on Janet Jackson stating “I don’t need this kind of publicity!” I hate that I spent all that time on him, but if I knew half of want he would become, I would have paid him no mind.

No More Backstreet Boys Vs. *NSYNC?

October 5, 2004 - Contributed anonymously: I’m surprised no one has Backstreet Boys vs. *NSYNC stories to tell! I guess that’s just another stage of the disappearance of the boybands. Now, we’re all bitching about who’s better: Britney Spears vs. Christina Aguilera; Who’s sluttier Britney or Christina?

What does this mean for pop music? Are we concentrating on personal lives more, or are we upgrading from “OMG NICK IS SO HOT JUSTIN SUCKS!!!!!!!”? “WILLA IS SO UGLY!!! DIE DIE DIE!!!!!”

Yeah, the whole Britney vs. Christina bugs me, but at least we don’t have to have contests on who’s gonna win Brian Littrell’s heart, even though he’s happily married with a kid.

JC Chasez Comments On Britney’s Nupitals And *NSYNC’s Future

*NSYNC star JC Chasez has been interviewed yesterday by SIRIUS Hits 1 station. Asked what does he think about Britney Spears’ nupitals, he answered: “The guy [Kevin Federline] that she’s with right is a nice guy. In a way, it’s been really good for her to be with him, because before that we’ve obviously been reading tabloids how much she was partying, going crazy. He’s kinda brought her down to the level to where she can be comfortable with herself and not have to worry about going out every night. I will say, the guy has been nothing but nice to me and from what I’ve seen done a lot of good things to her.” JC was also asked about *NSYNC’s future and said: “We’re just trying new things. We decided to go off and do our own projects to experiment and things like that. Joey’s on a Broadway and Chris is almost done his own record. Justin’s doing movies obviously and Lance is actually shooting a film. Everybody’s busy on their projects and everybody’s really happy right now. We’re gonna finish whatever were working on now and then explore a idea.” JC talked also about his music career and future plans.
