Members of *NSYNC has been spotted in Nashville where they attended a memorial service for singer/songwriter Robin Wiley. She was the group’s vocal coach, arranged their a capella songs and wrote a couple of songs that appeared on *NSYNC albums. Robin, in her early 40s, died last Sunday after a long bout with cancer. Wiley’s memorial service happened at her house Thursday. In addition to the guys, many of their crew members showed for what turned into a six-hour musical celebration, Robin’s good friend, Music Row publisher Leslie Tomasino, said yesterday. “It was very small and very musical and very private, and it was all about how much they love her,” Leslie said. “Justin said something extremely heartfelt and eloquent. It was beautiful.”

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?

An e-mail update from *NSYNC Official International Fan Club revealed that the boy band, continuing their extended break, will release ‘*NSYNC’s Greatest Hits’ on October 25th. Without any new tracks, and without a statement in the press release from any band member, it appears to be a release organized solely by Jive Records.
