Lance Bass Posts Epic Throwback Pics In Honor Of Justin Timberlake’s Birthday


In his latest Instagram update, Lance Bass posted an epic series of throwback pics in honor of former NSYNC bandmate Justin Timberlake‘s 36th birthday.

In the first shot, the duo was seen at MTV’s TRL in what appeared to be a photo booth. In the undated photo, Justin and Lance are seen in a collage of four images — all taken in quick succession at the TRL studios.

At the time, visiting the daily MTV music show was mandatory for the biggest stars of the era — who would attend interviews, as well as promote and perform their latest work. Earmarked for teens, the talk show series served as an introductory platform for some of the most popular recording artists and TV personalities of the decade. The show was hosted by Carson Daly, who now hosts The Voice and The Today Show.

In the vintage ’90s snapshots, Justin and Lance are seen posing head-to-head in close quarters. In the caption of the post, Lance said his pal was “doin’ fine.”

Bordered by a bright yellow frame, the top-left image shows the friendly duo pretending to be afraid. In the top-right image, the twosome is shown laughing together joyfully. The bottom-left photo shows the two friends appearing quizzical, and the bottom-right snap captures them showing off their best selfie faces.

The throwback post proved to be a hit with fans, who were immediately brought back to a nostalgic time when they were teenagers and loved the band.

“Aw. I miss TRL! It was a highlight of my childhood. Happy birthday Justin!” wrote one fan.

“I cannot love this enough. Wow, just wow,” commented a second fan.

“I miss TRL! Happy birthday Justin!! The last Boybander of my generation still under 40! It’s ok, I’m right behind him in March!” replied a third admirer.

During their heyday, NSYNC was one of the most popular groups in the world. At the height of their careers, they sold more than 50 million records and become the fifth best-selling boy band in music history.

After the band went on a hiatus in 2002, Justin Timberlake famously began his solo career that continues to this day — selling more than 56 million records alone. The pop singer also began a film career — starring in films like The Social Network, Alpha Dog, and Friends with Benefits.

Along with Max Martin and Shellback, Justin was also nominated for an Academy Award in 2017. The musical team received the nomination for Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures (Original Song) for the tune “Can’t Stop the Feeling” from the film Trolls.

Lance currently hosts a podcast called The Daily Popcast with Lance Bass. He also previously starred in the movie On the Line, along with NSYNC bandmate Joey Fatone and actress Emmanuelle Chriqui.
