Ah all the jokes about boy bands and their sexual orientation have finally come true. Lance Bass, member of N*Sync, has come out of the closet and admitted what many have joked about for years…he is gay.

Lance Bass, band member of ‘N Sync, says he’s gay and in a “very stable” relationship with a reality show star. Bass, who formed ‘N Sync with Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick, tells People magazine that he didn’t earlier disclose his sexuality because he didn’t want to affect the group’s popularity.

I say good for Lance! A person should be able to come out of the closet when their fame has faded to nothing and your future career options look bleak. I’m not saying this is being used to help gain some publicity or anything, but N*Sync has been dead for 4 years and he comes out now when he is working on a pilot? Well we all wish Lance the best and hope that his Vermont wedding is lovely.

I don’t know how we could have missed this
all this time! He just seemed so tough.
